LIVE STOCK STATISTICS


The government report Of Jan. l.
1914, of the number of head Of live
stock in South Dakota and the
United States as compared with the
report Of 1913 shows a slight gain in
all classes of stock for our state but
shows q falling off in the number Of
cattle, sheep and hogs for the entire
country. Meat prices are already
exorbitant and with 1900. 900 hogs
less than one year ago, with sheep
decreased almost as much and the
total number Of our cattle less each
yearit would seem that relief is not
yet in sight.

interesting experiments. Taking

NJ Chassaigne has repeated the

kinds Of plants. but always with the
same result. "It 10 maintained" he
says. that plants do not suffer be-

Many psychologists hold that
nerves are but the extension of proto-

Afa Colyo. coreres, general manager of the Ari. zona Consc .idated Smelling Company Of Humboldt It is not often that we are visited by such large gathering of the higher officials and we hope that this occasion portends some egrly expansion in the operations Of the local plants
 The Plumed Knight mine, valued at SlOO,000 and on which the Picneer Smelling Company already had paid S52,OO0, is not listed among the as. sets on the bankruptcy schedules. The Pioneer Smelling Company loses the S52.O0O paid aB result, the de. benture holders will not, in all prob. ability, be paid in full. The only oth- CT important asset Is the smelling plant, tbe value of which is not suf- tcient to meet all claims. The reason the mine is net listed Is because the old company defaulted on it's payment last June l2. The payment was met, however, by F. Hicks Herrick, who secured control of the old company

Bisbee daily review., 1914-02-15

It should be a popular enterprise. To share in the profits one would probably have to be in the employ of the com. pany for some stated period This would induce men to retain their jobs, always important in this region.
 Pspaao Indians May Be a Factor
 The native labor here may be the Papago Indians. They are hardy class of men, intelligent and indus trious. Their needs in the matter Of dwelling houses have already been con suited. They would be completely sat isfied with house of two rooms. More they would not care for. They would also like little staked court in connection through which the wind blows from any side. They invariably nave this in their present dwellings The country is warm and shelter isn't a burning question as in our Lake Su perior region. On the days we visited the Aio mines late in January. the mercury at night registered g degrees above zero as the lowest point: while at midday 1t ranged from 70 to so de grees above. In the summer time for few months it is very hot The alti. tude is about 2OOO feet above sea level.
 site for the club house has been chosen. IL will occupy a slight emi hence near the townsite. It will be provided with popular features. and will have pergola on top, roof gar den, roofed. where the ladies' and gentlemen may enjoy the delightful evenings. It will be imperative to have some luxuries here. because now the world seems far away. The loca ton of mines and the proposed town site, millslte, etc, Is beautiful. a par. ticularly attractive spot. We do not wonder that the Papagos love it.
 IL Looks Good 10 Us
 Summing it all up New Cornelia has much to warrant the prediction that 1t will be a great success. Thero are some very imDortant things ve, fo be worked out. but we believe 'hese will be followed to a successful termination. We are quite satisfied to Ter the results speak for themselves Like Calumet X Arizona Bisbee mines. the New Cornelia has the ore arG mars all important We are well satisfied the company will get it into merchantable form and gain the oroht so gratifying to shareholders pronts are a habit with Calumet S Arizona.

Prospecting the Amole

Seven miles out from Tucson, and on the way to Ajo. by the surveyed railway route from Tucson, the Calu- met & Arizona company are operating diamond drill on a property known as the "Amole." There is a copper holding formation here, and the com. pany will give 1t close looking into. A Longyear drill outfit is boring it's way into a large outcropping of low grade ore. It Is estimated there are l0,00o,000 tons here and the company will determine this point and the qual. ity of the mineral at the same time It Is too early to make any estimate on the property, work having been under way only a short time. The drill is still at work on the first hole of the plan laid down for the exploring.
 Admirable Location for Buildings
 The New Cornelia company has an ideal site for the townsite, and mine building. A neat location, of the best in a sanitary way is being planned There will be hospital, a club. and a cooperative store. The latter will be conducted for the men employed by the company and they will receive all the profits, paying reasonable interest on the investment. The business will be run by competent man and the miners and other employees will look after all the transactions through com. mittees they will select. Goods will be sold at prevailing prices and dividends paid the men according to the pyrhts.

He disapproves of the present building policy. which he calls "haphazard."

shortly afterward moved to Atlantic High
lands and there, than.:s to the financial assist

Argonaut Jr.. was a cofinlike box built OF yellow
pine timber in two layers, coated with coal tar
and lined with felt to make 1t water tight. 1t was

THE vessel was intended to navigate only on
