Three R Mine Will
 Build Concentrator.

As result of the visit early this week to the Three K mine of J. w. Bonnie, manager of the Shannon Cop per Company, of which the owner of the Three R, N. L. Amster. the Bos. ton financier, is president and Impor tant stockholder, it is announced the Three K mine is going to put up a concentrator to treat the low grade ores. Patagonla's most famous mine, the Three !S, is the personal property of Mr. Amster and is not included in the Shannon Copper company holdings, but Mir. Bennie acts as general mana ger for the Amster interests in Ari- zona, and it is probably on his rscom- mendatlon the concsntrator is going to be built
 The concentrator is to be of POO tons daily capacity, but it is not expected that more than 100 tons will be the regular daily output for the present. Work upon the new plant is to begin at once, or within few weeks at most.
 It is believed the concentrator will be put up at the mine, although there is a probability it may be constructed on this side of the Three R group, in the canyon where the road turns to the Flux, much nearer to Patagonia. This would be on the Three R ground. but would necessitate tramming the ore from the mine. Engineers are estimating the amount of water that can be developed at the mine, and if sufficient, no doubt the concentrator will be put up right at the works. Another thing which seems to point to the mine being the place for the To- cation of the concentrator is the fact that water could be piped from the Sonolta grant at very small expense in case it was required. But it is not be- lieved this will be necessary as water enough to run the plant will probably be developed at the mine.
 At the present time the Three R is shipping only about 50 tons of high. grade copper ore day. while work of development is going down to the l00O-foot level is in progress. When. ever it is desired to get out more ore this average is put up to 100 tons day, usually when copper is selling at cent or so pound more than present prices. During the past several months the ore shipped has averaged about l2 per cent copper. In getting out the high-grade for shipment to the smelter, enormous bodies of low. grade copper ore have been opened up. When the concentrator is completed and working, shipments of the high. grade copper ore will continue as usual to the smelter, only the low-grade bodies being treated. It will require a much larger force than at present employed, and may result in doubling the number of men now employed at the Three R. It is estimated between 100000 and 300, ,OOO tons of low grade copper ore are in sight, enough to keep the concentrator running for two years.-Santa Cruz Patagonian.

safety first" is the slogan of the
present day, and it is fast being
applied in the industrial world to curb
the tendency of the present age
towards speed at the expense of safety.
There is always point. beyond which
it is not wise to proceed. which point
has in a good many instances been
passed, and the resulting disasters
have brought about policy of re-
trenchment to the point where safety
is the first consideration.
The Central Savings Bank & Trust
company of Orleans has from is very
inception by it's organizers pursued
this policy, and the results have
has been constantly followed xsssssssss 49,.
In the nine years of its existence it
has experienced rapid and steady
growth, and on June 80 it reported to
the bank commissioner that it had
resources of nearly eight hundred
thousan dollars ($797. 845.25) That
this money is we'll and safey invested
is evidenced by its statement to the
commissioner that it had on that date
only $50. "a of interest on its loans
which was more than IL months over
due. 1t further reported that upon
that date it did not own a dollars
worth OF real estate acquired under
foreclosure, showing the clear cut
character of its investments. and
another monument to the careful
attention and good judgment of it's
board of directors in investing the
| banks funds.
This record and the policy of the
bank is daily appealing to those
prudent, careful persons who have
funds to deposit, hence the steady
growth which this bank has enjoyed.
The bank guarantees four per cent
on deposits and pays all taxes on
deposits Of any amount. Banking by
mail is now considered absolutely safe,
and persons at distance need have no
hesitation in sending money to this
bank by registered letter, check, postal
order, express or money order, and
prompt acknowledgment will be
made. (adv.)

G. A. Prouty's letter has rather put
a crimp into the glee of the apparent
smooth sailing of opposed factions. A
number of papers thus far entirely in
the dark SO far as the senatorial situa-
ton is concerned rather take liking
TO the letter, and some papers which
have been friendly but undecided seem
to find new words favorable to Mr..
Prouty. The home paper of Mr..
Dillingham; takes occasion in lengthy
editorial to answer as best it can a
few of the points made in the Prouty
letter, but does not come back with
the usual vigcr of one convinced and
fighting winning battle. Prouty
stock took another decided jump with
the publication of his letter and from
present indications there will be q
lively senatorial race with Prouty Just
ahead of the field.

Fashion Rules for Fat Women and
Thin Women and Dummy Women.

Grace Margaret Gould, fashion ed
itor of the Woman's Home Compan-
Ion. writes a highly entertaining and
yet practical article entitled "1mita-
ton Versus Individuality" in the
March issue of that publication. She
lays down the following general rules
for fat women, thin women and dunn
Ply women:
"Once and for all. the stout wo-
man must make up her mind to de-
ny herself extremes in dress den-
orally speaking. the passing fad of
the season Is not for her. She must
keep to long lines and inconspicuons
materials. Tight clothes are also to
be avoided. She can have a little
of the new fad in style. but not too
much Of 1t, For instance. If full
bouffant draperies at the hips are
mode. she is not forced to give up
her drapery entirely, but she must
lower it a trife and not have her
skirt puff out just where the hips

she must be very particular in
the way she dresses her neck. Full
nor gowns cut round at the neck.
The V-neck opening Is her safest
line. and yoke or vest effects termin-
ating in a point.
THE average fat woman has Soma
good feature. This is the feature
she must emphasize.
The too thin woman isn't really
as bad as she thinks she is, only she
must use her intelligence in plan
ming her clothes and SIZE must stop
Initiating the dreis CT other women.
Today, In fact, she IS fortunate
woman, because the styles-al CT
them--are just for her
"Of course. she must avoid straight
up and down lines. but this will not
be very hard this season, She can
wear the skirts with full draperies,
the flaring ripple Jackets and the bag

The Medici frill is also for her. but
il her neck Is long and thin she
wants to go a bit gingerly about
making friends with the Japanese
collar.
THE too thin woman can wear al
most any material she likes II she
only avoids stripes In colors. 1t is
much the same way, though she Is
sure to look best In tone which
matches or harmonizes with the coll
or OF her eyes.
The dumpy woman must only
wear the costume which has straight
up and down lines. She must be
careful not to divide herself In the
middle. No wide girdIes or minaret
tunics for her Any dress which has
panel in front or long slash
drapery or trimming will help TO
make her appear taller"

,oo O0O Rabies Examined.

In the March Womans Home Com
panion, Anna Steese Richardson. d.
rector of the Better Babies bureau Of
the Woman's Home Companion, gives
graphic account OF twelve months
work and fun in carrying on the cam
paign for Better Babie8--a movement
which, during the coming year, Is ex-
pected to develop enormously. Just q
wear ago the Companion took up the
canse OF Better Babies and put It on a
sound educationaly basis: first, by CIV
Ing 1t worldwide publicity; second, by
encouraging and assisting the various
organizations wishing to conduct con-
tests. by providing standard literature
and awarding prizes; and third, by
sending an immense amount OF con-
crete information to individual moth
ers who want their babies to be better
babies. The Better Babies movement
has been standardized by means Of
providing. free Of charge. the most
thoroughly scientific scorecards. wall
charts, books Of detailed instructions.
and all other needful literature, that
could be devised by experts, and in
sisting that these be used In all con-
tests where Woman's Home Compan-
ion awards were given. In other
words, the Better Babies bureau. by
honest, sincere. and unbelievably hard
work, has accomplished In one year
what 4 generation OF scattered en-
deavor could not have brought about.
The following extract from Mrs. Rich
ardson's article gives a brief resume
Of what has been done:
''Better Babies Contests have been
held in every State Of the union, ex-
cept West Virginia, New Hampshire.
and Utah, and in several Canadian
provinces More than one hundred
thousand babies have been examined
according to the Better Babies stand
ard ecorecard. Hundreds OF thou

ter Babies bureau and distributed
