miles north of Metcalf in the Gar
field section, and owned by Garcia &
Norte, and Bianes & Valdez, the lat
ter of Metcalf, is reported to be
steadily producing some of the rich
est specimens of copper ever dis
covered in this section. A chunk of
copper ore from this mine is now on
exhibition in Clifton, and is so rich
that it appears to be pure copper.

more than two years the owners of
this mine have been steadily follow
vein of great richness, but of a
width not sufficient to make the
working unusually profitable. But
recently the vein has been widening,
until now an average of six inches
has been found to run without varia-
ton, with the result that the work
ing has become profitable. More
than thirty tons of ore is awaiting
shipment to the Shannon smelter,
where shipments have been made. A
force averaging six men has been
employed at this mime forr some
time Development includes a shaft
of about 100 feet in depth, with sew
eral tunnels, one of which is 230 feet
in length The owners of this prop
erty are optimistic in their view of
it's final results.

Terry is one of the best known
young business men of Greenlee
county and he is not losing a single
opportunity of putting in good
word for his home town and county
while attending the convention Els
pecially is he busy telling friends and

An old time friend of Terry is w.
r. Wayland, manager of the Central
drug store at Center and Washington
streets. Wayland used to live in
Clifton until very short time ago
