that the company is just fairly en- tered upon it's career Prior to the war Shattuck was producing at the rate of about 16000,00G pounds of copper per year. The ores are treated al the Calumet & Arizona smelter at Douglas. Shattuck mine also has eX- tensive deposits of lead. and now that the price of this metal is beginning to look attractive, it is expected that production in that part of the mine will be inaugurated. Copper, gold. and lead are the main products of the Shattuck, and the stock is considered one of the gilt-edged issues of the Boston list The Shattuck has some surprises in store in the matter of gold production. It is quite common for copper mines to produce more or less gold and silver, but the Shat tuck has a large tonnage of ore which runs especially high in gold valuess

 Precedinu Year

The report of the Ray Consoli- dated Copper company for the year ended Dec. 31. 1914, shows that the company produced 53,674,275 pounds of copper, as compared with 53,674,- 2I5 pounds for the fiscal year of 1913. The price received was 13267 cents, as against l4.994 cents for the previous year
 Managing Director D. C. Jackling in his remarks says:
 The total development for the year in the areas tributary to all of the three shafts was 75.261 feet a re- duction of 9.46S feet as compared 10 that for the previous year The total development since the com mencement of mining operations and up to the end of the year 1914 was 452.233 feet or approximately s5 miles, of which mining operations have destroyed 1S2,760 feet or about 34 miles.

The greatly decreased tonnage hoisted from the mine for the last five months was con- sequently largely responsible for the increase in the mining costs for the year, and not only in the mining de- partment, but in every other depart ment, where the fixed overhead ex- pense a2could not be reduced below certain point, decreased tonnages were of necessity productive of increased tonnage costs. The pumping. develop ment and repair costs in the mine were all particularly heavy during the year, and constituted an exceptionally high charge against the mining cost of the copper contents in ore mined during this period, and the strict attention paid throughout the year to sorting all waste out of the ores in the stopes, largely offset the increased tonnage
 
 satisfactory cost of copper obtained, the lowest in the history of the com pany.
 In December a churn drill was pur- chased and erected on the company's extreme west ground. Drilling was commenced in the middle of the month and will be continued during the year 1915, with a view to determining the underlying formation The informa- tion obtained will be conducive to more intelligent planning of extraction drifts and work in general toward the west
 Considerable attention has been paid to safety, first aid and rescue work, with very gratifying results.
 The developments in the mine con tinue to give very encouraging results and satisfactory years operation in 1915 can be confidently anticipated.
 All departments have labored faith fully and efficiently during the Year with the general manager and superin- tendents, and # is due to their loyalty and cooperation as we'll as to em- ployes in general that such excellent results were made possible

Higher prices for silver are looked for by Vice president Brush of the American Smelling and Refining CO. who presided at the annual meeting of the stockholders of this company and of the American Shelters Se- curities Co
 The price is chiefly dependent upon the demand from India. which nor mally takes 70 per cent of the metal. The industrial and business outlook in India for the year is good. said Mir.

United Globe Mines

The report of the United Globe Mines has just been issued for the year ending Dec. 31, 1914. And, after reciting the financial conditions Pres. James Douglas in his remarks says:
 The principal tonnage of ores has consisted of concentrating ore from the 18th to the 18th levels. though stopes have been worked above the 18th in Blocks 35. 36 and 37. The 10th and 18th levels on the Gladiator Vein have been opened between Blocks 29 and 34, and have con tr1buted ore of a somewhat higher grade. Through the Grey shaft con centrating ores with high sulphur contents have been extracted. This vein will be developed between the Eth and 18th levels during the com ing year and should be productive of good tonnages of concentrating ore
 The Taylor group will also be de- Veioped from tine Grey shaft.
 The principal product of the United Globe Mines being concentrating ore. and the Old Dominion concentrator and it's auxiliary Notation plant hav- ing been under construction during the greater part of tue year, the out put of the mines has been partially restricted.

MAKING
SHELLS
l-Aso'

1t has been realized that the ex.
penditure of ammunition in the pres.
ent war Is unprecedented, but few
persons have had any notion OF the
enormous difference indicated b.
Lloyd George m an announcement in
the house of commons.
1t seems incredible that inone bat
tie, that of Neuve Chapelle, the Brit
ish army used up as much ammuni-
ton as was used in the entire Boer
war. This battle lasted four days;
the Boer war lasted 1000 days.
1t was an illuminating commentary
on the change In methods Of warfare
wrought by the new trench fighting
and the improvement OF guns and
shells. 1t is corroboration OF the be-
lief that the war Is to be decided by
artillery rather than men. 1t explains
the concern Of the British government
with regular to ammunition supplies
the seizure and naturalization OF all
the factories, the appeals to the Da-
triotism of workmen and the cam
paign against liquor because of It's
interference with the output Of .nu.
nitions.
The production, however, seems
from Lloyd Georges figures to have
kept up pretty well with the require
ments so far. The output OF artil.
lery ammunition in March was near.
ly twenty times the output OF last
September, more than four times he
output OF November, and more than
twice the output Of January. 1t Is
still increasing. The chief industry
in England now is the manufacture
of shells. Never before has there
been such an instance OF industrial
specialization for the purposes of wal

THE OUTCAST

She crossed my path one winters
night, :,
This girl by man betrayed;
So pitiful is now her plight,
This one time happy maid.
Gently | spoke for she was fair,
Too young for ways OF Woe;
But those who know her do not care,
And those who care, don't know.
~ rsI&fTiywyl
She spoke to me that winters night,
Plying her shameful trade
Where shines the city's brightest
light,
Boldly and unafraid.
A city full OF happy homes
No home life she may share;
An outcast on the street she roams,
And those who know, don't care.
She'll live for yet little while,
This girl by Virtue scorned,
In scarlet traffic men call vile,
With crown OF thorns adorned,
TIL plying lake or river takes
Her load, too great to bear,
And when in heavens morn she
wakes,
1t may be God will care.

~ the farmers in getting help. Me-
hanics and laborers living in cities
re eloquently urged to get ont into
he country for peace and plenty.
Cons derable light on the question
why farm help is scarce has just
been thrown by report issued by
the New York, New Haven and Hart
ford railroad. This company, prob
ably to promote the Back to the
Soil" movement, has been collecting
statistics on the wages OF farm PEG
pie. While New England wages are
higher, 1t finds that in the whole Uni
ted States the average farm hand gets
but $21 .3S a month with hoard and
S31 90 without board
This figure is considerably higher
than 1t could have been zen years
ago. But the pay without board is
only about 81 per week. 1t IS a poor
apology for man who can't earn
considerably more than $ | week in
factory town.
Additional light on this question
was thrown the other day by WON.
an with u wide experien,s in charity
work In the country, covering condi
tlons in several states. She said that
there is growing tendency among
farmers to hire their work done by
boys sent out by reform schools, o.
phan asylums, and other correctional
or philanthropic institutions. These
youngsters will once In while skip
with such pickings OF money or clo-
thing as they can escape with. Also
they are sometimes demoralizing fac
tor in a small village of simple light
hearted country boys. But as
whole, these little fellows do fairly
good work, and the farm experience
is good for them.
The net result, however, is to set
a standard of low wages for farm
help, and to discourage able bodied
men from taking up agricultural
work.
What seems to be needed, in order
to enlarge the supply of food products
and reduce prices, is to encourage a
greater number of young men to go
into farming on their own account.
Apparently the only way to bring
that about is some such sound sys-
tenn OF rural credits or land banks as
is conducted SO successfully in Eur.
ope. .,.

PUBLIC
ARELESSNESS

The Brooklyn RAPID Transit Com
pany has just issued a circular on the
subject of accidents. This leaflet
states that the company records show
that Sc per cent of injuries are due
to public carelessness. 1t may be oD-
jected that public service corporations
always m nimize their own errors and
magnify those of the public. Yet no
one can doubt that the public Is large
" to blame for its own injuries.
A frequent source of mishap in
large cities is the habit Of alighting
from street cars without looking to
see IL automobiles or other vehicles
are coming. While 1t Is an outrage
for a motor or other vehicles to run
swiftly by the door of street ear
where passengers are alighting, the
police can't always be looking every
where. 1t is not safe for passengers
to assume that the whole street traf-
fIc will stop for them.
The habit of alighting from cars
with ones back toward the way the
car is going is also very common. 1t
is peculiarly prevalent among women.
Human legs do not act backward as
well as forward. 1t Is almost impos.
sible to step back quickly enough to
recover balance. The rear of ones
head is dangerous part OF ones an
atomy to have strike the pavement.
The habit of getting on trains while
in motion is a fixed one with many
persons. They seem to enjoy making
this display OF their ability. They
also appear ashamed of stopping con-
versations with friends on the plat.
form before train starts, as II they
thought that boarding the train in
good season was an ignoble precau.
ton. As a result, more business for
the surgeons.
The coming of automobiles multi.
plies street dangers. They dodge out
from unexpected quarters, and the
streets OF even small towns are often
dangerous. A cautious look both
ways is the only safe rule in cross
ing any street where there is much
traffic.
A habit of caution costs nothing.
1t saves many hospital bills and many
tragic griefs. Teach 1t to the chill
dren!
