dred dollars a ton than it does to
produce an equal quantity worth ten
dollars ton.
In all other lines of endeavor in
which men labor long and cOntinu-
ously, profits accumulate gradually
but your mine operator usually
works longer and harder than any
of them, very frequently without any
financial reward at all, until finally
he opens up a body of ore that In
a few months enables him to recoup
the outlay of years and thereafter
continues indefinitely to earn money
for him.
This is, of course, only one phase
of mining. Conducted as it is now
"As business, not as an adventure'
the regular, steady income from
large deposits of low grade ores is
constantly in line for great and sud
den increase by reason of the mine
workings opening enriched zones
which occur at intervals in practi-
cally all mineral veins.
From the nature of the business
it's big rewards are erratic but the
factor of luck is credited with a
good deal more influence than it de-
serves. AS a level headed hard

CROP YIELD ENORMOUS.

San Francisco, March 26.-Fifteen
hundred miles of Pacific coast valley
and uplands, reaching from British
Columbia to the harassed Mexican
border, predicted today in expert re-
ports, the mightiest harvest in the
summer of 1914 that the West has
ever seen.
Seemingly nearly every product of
temperate and torrid zones is like
ly to surpass itself The Washing
ton wheat crop is expected to
jump the record of nearly 100000
bushels made in 1912. Down in the
Imperial valley, close to Mexico, plan
ters predicted a yield of 5000 bales
of cOtton-a bale of cotton to the
acre. The beWildering diversity of
fruits and grasses in the interven-
ing country as tabulated by agricul-
tural and financial experts, is likely
to astonish the producers themselves,
and the vast cattle ranges of Califor-
MIA and Oregon are rich with
grass. Bountiful rains, besides go
ing far to insure a great year in ag-
riculture, encouraged the planting of
extensive areas in new orchards,
movement further encouraged by re-
ports of this years prospective crops.
Lemons, oranges, raisin grapes, apri-
cots, prunes, apples and peaches all
were reported "eXcellent" in nearly
every district, and the prospects of a
good nut crop are likewise so describ-

THREE-CENT LAW INVALID.

The federal court in San Francisco
the operation of the threecent fare
law in Arizona. Their opinion and
decision is based upon the opinion of
the supreme court of the state OF Arl-
zona in the Tucson Gas and Electric
company case, wherein the supreme
court of Arizona held that
the sole power to fix rates for public
service corporations, under the cOnstl-
tuition, lay with the corporation com
mission of the state of Arizona and
that the legislature did not have con-
current power to establish such rates.
The federal court holds that it is
bound by the decision Of the supreme
court Of the state of Arizona on the
construction of statute in relation
to the constitution of the state of Arl
zona and, following the decision Of
the supreme court of the state of Ari-
zona, declared the law to be invalid.
Attorney General Bullard has,how-
ever, applied to the corporation COM
mission for an order fixing three
cents as a reasonable passenger rate
for the transportation of passengers
in the state of Arizona over the vari-
Gus lines of the railroads Of the state,
A hearing on these cases is set for
April 21 The corporation commits
sion, however, has demanded of the
railroads to furnish them a large
amount of data in relation to the eX
pense of the transportation of passen-
gers in the state; if this data is fur
nished by the railroads by April q,
the cases will be heard by the cor
poration commission at that time; if
not, the cases may be continued for
short time further in order that full
data may be furnished the corpora

THE MINING BUSINESS.

One of the advantages referred to
as being peculiarly characteristic of
mining is the fact that there is no
commodity that runs into money so
fast as reasonably good ore nor is
there any other product not directly
influenced by the cost of production
manufacturer, to double his out
put must at once provide a larger
factory, increase his selling costs
and all his other expenses; a mer-
chant, to do larger business has
to Immediately tie up a much larger
capital in stock and multiply his ex-
penses all along the line; farmer,
to handle a greater acreage, must
acquire more land, more equipment,
more help-but-it costs no more 20
