ORE SEASON NEAR CLOSE.
Shipments This Season viii Show a
Big Decrease Over Previous
Years.

The ore season probably will be
at an end next week. The num-
Der of tons shipped from both the
Northwestern and the 500 docks
at Ashland will show a big de
crease over previous years. The
reason for this fact may be attribu-
ted to the poor conditions of the
iron market necessitated by the
European war.
1t will be remembered, however,
that the shipments from the Ash
land docks were on the average
greater several months this season
than of the docks at the head of
the lakes. The ore business in
Ashland has held up well. The
season as a whole was way down,
and the total shipments at the ter
mination of the season will reveal
big falling off
The ore shipments from Ashland
docks during the month of October
this fall were 487 ,829 tons in COM
parison with 497 .952 tons last year
during the same month. For the
whole season up to November /
this year there were 1929 ,749 tons
of ore shipped from Ashland docks.
This compares with 1850 ,754 tons
shipped during the same period
last year This means that there
has been a falling off in shipments
this year in the month of October
of 1923 tons. The falling off for
the season up to November l was
827, ,00S tons.

Annual Meeting Of County Board.

The annual meeting of the coun-
ty board was held Tuesday at the
court house. The most important
business transacted was the equal
izing of the assessed value of the
county and the making of app1o-
priations for the coming year. In
the equalization the board accepted
the figures of Assessor of Incomes
VIM. Landraint as presented to the
board, his figures being $1I, 503, .
406 as the total assessed value of
the county, divided among the
eleven towns of the county as fol-
lows

This years equalization shows
an increase in a number of the
towns over the figures of last year,
while others show a decrease.
The board appropriated SIS, 1917
for road and bridge work in the
county the coming year, and this
together with S13,806, the county
share of the state aid highway
fund brings the total amount
available for road and bridge work
up to 542, ,003.

Ranchers Return to Their

Florence, Ariz., Dec z9.-Ranchers
along the ella river, east and west Of
Florence. are returning to their homes,
from which they were driven with their
families and livestock by the recent
flood. Most of them also took their
household goods to the high ground
with them. Several of the ranches were
badly cut by the rushing waters but
most of them were benefited by the
thorough soaking more than they were
damaged.
For several days the Phoenix & East
ern railroad will operate trains only
as far as Price, 10 miles east of Flor
enee. East of that there are two great
washouts which may not be entirely re-
paired before the middle Of next week.
State Bridge Damaged.
Both approaches to the state bridge
over the ella river at Florence are
washed away and replacing them will
be expensive. On the south side there
is a yawning hole more than 100 feet
wide between the bridge and the bank.
There is a similar hole on the north
side.
Water came right up into Florence
and the Easements of several buildings
were flooded. Little damage was done
in the town, however.
