WILL SHIP 1000
TONS OF ORE DAILY

Pueblo, May 49,. The Mammoth
Mine company will ship 1000 tons OF
limonite iron ore daily to the Colo
rado Fnel & Iron company's plant in
this. city for the next en- years, ac-
cording to report made by an off
cial of the mining company here a
day or two ago. The ore will come
from the company's mines thirteen
miles west of Pueblo.
Such activity speaks well for the
future industry at the steel works. it
is said. The Mammoth Iron company
owns $500 acres containing high ore
on the western side of Marshall Pass,
thirty miles west OF salida. This is
a limonite which experts claim is
scarce.
The advantage of such ore is that
no lime is needed for fuxing as is
necessary with most iron ores to neu-
tralize the silicon Limonite ore con-
tains sufficient quantity of lime to
fiux itself when placed in the furnaces
The necessity of using lime adds to
the cost of production
Freight rates rs another advantage.
the steel owners of the mine claim.
At present the steel company is ship
ping most of its ore from Sunrise,
wyo., and New Mexico. Freight rates
amount to considerable from these
points and the local company's mines
being but 100 miles from the works
much saving Will result on freight.
The decrease in the cost of produc-
ton will help the steel company in
crease its profits and anything that
help the steel company. the main in
dustry of Pueblo. will help Pueblo,
asserted the mine owners.
The present war situation in Eu-
rope has increased the demand for
iron and steel goods from the Ameri
can plants. Reports from eastern
plants show they are running full ca
pacity. The Pueblo plant is just now
feeling the effect of the rush The
labor commissioners state that the
plant is now employing nearly 1000
men. almost its full capacity.
The owners OF the mammoth mines
believe that by using ore from their
mines the company can save enough
furnaces and mills during a depres-
sion better than they could under
previous conditions A. soon as .
branch railway Is constructed from
the main line OF the Rio Grande rail
way At Buxton to the mines the oper
ators will commence shipping.

RIEs IN THE MARKET.


The first homegrown Strawberries
of the present season made their ap-

on Wednesday of this week when a
grower at Brookside brought in a
crate Of one Of the earlier varieties.
They were of fair size and of excel

ored by reason Of the fact that they
had not quite reached maturity. In
some localities in the Canon City
district. the strawberry crop win be
light: in others the yield promises to
be very good. Taking the community
as a whole the crop will be about an

VALUABLE BULLETINS
ISSUED BY STATE
GEOGRAPHICAL SURVEY

The Colorado Geological survey has
recently issued the following bulle-
tins:
Bulletin 7-Bibliography Of Colo
rsdc Geology and Mining by Olive II.
Jones. This bulletin contains refer
ences to practically all the perma-
nent literature on the geology and
mining industry of Colorado. The in
dex is So arranged under localities,
subjects. formations, etc., that it is
comparatively easy to obtain refer
ences to all that has been published
on any area or topic regarding which
information is desired. The author
index is arranged alphabetically and
the briefer references in the index
refer to the fuller titles in the author
list &
Bulletin s-CIay of Eastern Colo
rado by G. Montague Butler. This
report was prepared for the purpose
Of spreading information concerning
the great undeveloped, or partially
developed, clay resources of Colorado.
In the preparation of the bulletin over
five hundred samples of clay we're
collected from a large number of To-
calities, particularly in eastern Colo
rado and near the centers OF popuIa-
ton in the western part of the state.
The report is divided into i've
parts:
Part one discusses the composition,
properties and classification of clays
and gives an account of the methods
employed in the study and testing OF
Colorado clays-
Part. two gives brief description
of the sedimentary formations OF the
parts of the state from which the
samples were collected and describes
the clays found in those formations
Part three contains description
of the samples grouped according to
the coutnies from which they were
collected, states their field character
istics and the uses to which they
may be put. +,
Part four tabulates the clays ac-
cording to the geological formations
from which the samples came and
states the use to which they are best
adapted
Part i've is tabulation OF the re-
suits of the laboratory tests made on
the various samples
This bulletin should be of great
value to the clay industry of Colo
rado and should be the means Of
stimulating a wide interest in these
resources Of the state. II is surely
reflection ON the enterprise OF the
citizens OF Colorado when one OBJ
serves the great variety and gerat
quantity of clay products imported
into this state. especially in view OF
the fact that Colorado possesses I'M
limited quantities OF the raw mate
rials suitable for the manufacture OF
those same products
Either of these bulletins can be Sc
cured on application to R D. George.
State Geologist. Boulder. Colo. by
renting postage. which would be
eight cents for each bulletin to any
part Of the state. To persons out
side the state either bulletin will be
sent on receipt OF the proper postage
for two pound parcel to the zone
In which the applicant lives.
