| probaly the finding of very sub
 stantial ore body in the Little Daisy 1 ground. For many years it has been 1 q stock remark that nothing had
 been found outside the United Verde l But the Little Daisy now absolutely
 demonstrates to the contrary, and the | depreciative remark cannot now be
 exercised, for tl.e property is sup plying sufficient ore from its work = ings. to pay all running expenses
 of its development. This company has under option large area of ground around it's original holdings and it is anticipated that most of them will be exercised. There are
 no questions of doubt but what there are possibilities close to Jerome but 10 demonstrate emphatically, depth will have to be attained Ship
 ment of glance ore is being made from the surface shoot on the Cleo patra, as well as some development
 work has been performed on the main tunnel level. Some very good looking carbonate ore is also being taken out from prospect work on d claim known as the Greenflower.

 Jerome was always d wonderful and great camp to all who had the slightest interest in mining, and probably the remark would be equal ly appreciable to the public generally and well has the camp earned d world wide reputation for the Verde mine las been a steady and con tinuous producer of ore for many years and has practically sustained the district, and if she is great now she is going to be much greater in the near future. nothing can hold it Lack. Jerome has surely a bright future, not only atmospherically by the abolishment of the old shelter but also physically in the working of it's future ore bodies
 There is a noticeable activity out
 
 along the entire Black Hill range. At present very capable geologist representing one of the largest copper interests in the state is actively en- gagged examining the entire district and many others are being attracted. It is anticipated that soon after the new shelter starts, the Iron King mine known as the Equator. and owned by Senator Clark will be started up, this will add another producing area. Adjoining this is the Copper Chief mine an old property and in addition to it's copper ore. q very large tonnage of gold ore has been developed and at present a large force of men are employed grading for the new reduction plant and building quarters for the working force. This mine had so-calIed | gold mill erected upon it some years ago and which proved to be a fail ! are and unquesuonably it couldn't l be otherwise for it was a cross ! breed between the machinery used i in a cheese factory and that of q | steam laundry. But this was not i the only calamity the mine had in l flicted upon it for it had a smelter 1 erected below it in early days and | lfter some very demonstrative ex- i imDles of freezing up was eventually ! abandoned. However, the fault can | not be laid to the mine, for it is | conceded to be a highly mertorious | property and according to the pres ent activities being exercised will | He large producer in the near fu | lure. Outside of these main proper lies, there is attention been paid | 10 smaller prospects. which have | more or less favorable car marks [ and there is bound to be q mine or ! two developed out of them. Con litions are certainly exceedingly en- ,ouro ging for the districts substan- -ial and successful advancement.
