MODERN SMELLING PLANT
At CLARKOALE ATTRACTS
EYES OF MINING WORLD

That the new reduction works at
Clarkdale, embodying the most mod
ern features of design, are attracting
the attention of the entire mining
world to a property now recognized
as among the best managed and most
self contained of any in the world is
the assertion of C. A. Tupper in a
recent article in the Mining and En-
gineering World of Chicago. The ar
ticle, which is profusely illustrated
with photographs of the Clarkdale
plant and the Jerome district, after
describing the methods of mining en-
ployed and the formation of the ore
bodies, says, in part:
"Ore and flux from the United
Verde mine are brought to the Clark
dale smelter over an approach con-
sisting of trestles, the wooden sections
of which are supported by monolithic
concrete piers, and the steel sections
by concrete piers arranged in pairs,
one on each side. Concrete retaining
walls have also been built where
necessary.
The receiving and storage facilities
consist of steel bins and a storage
yard, part of which is used for coke.
AN area 27O by SS IT. is covered
by the bins, which have total ca
pacity of $4,000 tons, and consist of
two nearly equal parts erected side
by side, but as separate structures.
The smaller is used primarily as re-
ceiving bins for the proportion. of
the ore passing directly through from
the mine to the furnaces. The ore Is
dumped to either. bins from the So
ton hopper bottom cars brought in on
the trestle over them.
Outside the bins are the coke and
surplus ore storage yards in the or
der named, each being 27O 1T. long
and 70 and so #. wide, respectively.
These are overhung by trestles from
which the railroad cars discharge
their loads.
'Reclaiming the yard ore is done
by means of belt conveyor in a
transverse pit, to which the ore flows
through gate protected side openings.
This belt discharges to a cross con-
veyor which takes the ore to the fur
mace car-loading track under the bins,
or to another conveyor serving the
crushing and sampling plant
"Ore from the bins which does not
require crushing is drawn out under
meath to the charging cars, through
The Arizona copper camp., 1915-10-15

the rich oxidized and sulphide ores,
both ferrous and silicious, together
with some calcite to provide the ad-
ditional flux required, are smelted
in four 48x320-in. blast furnaces, con-
sisting of white-iron crucibles sup
ported on steel framework. The gases
are led from each furnace by two
'uptakes to a second dust chamber,
60x220 IT,, which is similar to that
provided for the calcining plant, but
with steel plate sides, deeper bottom
and an arrangement of the battles
which puts the gases from each fur
mace through the entire length of
the chamber, despite the fact that
the latter is parallel with the fur
mace building, and that the bases
enter along the side. This has the
advantage of the shortest, most di-
rect connections possible, with a
minimum of flue work. From the
blast furnace dust chamber the
cleaned gases are conducted through

small Blake crusher, Sturtevant rolls
and Denver Engineering Works sam
pie grinders prepare it for testing.
.The product of the crushers in
the sampling mill. including sampler
reflections, is handled by system of
belt conveyors SO arranged that it
can be sent back to the storage bins
for fines, or carried over to the cal
ching plant by another incline con-
veyor running at a right angle to the
first.
The entire conveyor system was
installed by the Webster Manufactur-
ing company and the rubber betting
was furnished by the Gutta Percha
& Rubber Manufacturing company.
This system is exceptionally extensive
and complete, comprising Is distinct
units; so that manual labor for any
handling of the ore has practically
been eliminated.
In the calcining plant the ore is
fed to six 211z 1T. Wedge furnaces,
each of which has a capacity Of 96
tons in "a hours. The hearths, six
roasting and one drying, are lined
with concrete. Being built on the
unit system, the plant can be en-
larged indefinitely as required, and
the present plans provide for eight
furnaces.
Cooling blast is furnished by one
of two No. 6 Sirocco, 3-oz. blowers.
each driven by 3O-h.p. 44O-volt
Westinghouse motor, and having a
rated capacity of $4,000 cu #. of free
air per minute. Either, as used, dis
charges into concrete blast tunnel
"The calcines are drawn out, un-
derneath the furnaces into 15-ton,
double-truck Kilbourne & Jacobs
cars. each 16 #. long, it. 8 ms.
wide. and 6 it. ins. body height,
which also take the flue dust. These
are, hauled by lotion Jeffrey electric
locomotives.
THE revolving mechanism of the
furnaces rests on roller bearings and
each is SO nicely balanced that a
man can turn furnace. When the
hearths are loaded. the entire plant
requires only s0-h.p, 44o-volt
Westinghouse motor for revolving all
of the units, with power to spare.
For starting up, before the sui
phides begin self-roasting. there are
oil burners Of the type designed by
the Schurs Oil Burner company of
Los Angeles.

originated in the famous Henry Street
widespread attention when first
started.
A more recent undertaking, and a
new departure. also. for most western
communities is that of class for
Home Care of the Sick,' where the
girls learn how to nurse an ailing
member Of the family and to carry
out the instructions of the doctor
with the aid of simple home rem
edies and materials at hand.
The properly made bed for the in
valid, hot water bags, ice caps, mus
tard and flax seed poultices, turpen-
tine stupes and the like are learned
by the actual practice of making
them under the eye of their instruct
ress. The dietetics side Of nursing
also receives its share of attention,
and the concoction of many dainty

are eagerly grasping the essential de-
tails of that most fascinating ac-
complishment of the daughter, sister,
wife or mother, the one which has
been praised by the poet, eulogized
by the novelist and recognized in
practical life as one Of womans
greatest charms.
Infant welfare work has very re-
Gently been started by the health de-
partment under the personal super
vision of the visiting nurse, and here
the mother of whatever nationality
may come to gain advice as to the
proper care of her infant from, and
even before birth.
The gospel Of infant welfare is
spread by means of circulars printed
in both English and Spanish, and the
valuable advice contained therein
upon caring for the baby's milk and
other dietetic advice is sound and
practical and reaches in this manner
the homes where it is most needed.
To say that Jerome appreciates the
services of the visiting nurse is put
ting it mildly, and the residents in
general have come to a full UNDER
standing of the value of the protec-
tion afforded by the visiting nurse
work, as carried out by the Red
Cross representative in their midst, in
her work in conjsnction with the city
health physician, whose operation
and help is invaluable in the work of
the nurse.

Clarkdale. where taps take off the
Quantity needed there. A Gin. pipe
continues on to a 100,00O-gal. red

corner of the smelter site, where the
pressure head exceeds 200 it. Thence
the various parts of the smelter- are
served through an sin. welded
pipe, reducers of the same material
connecting the several lines.
From an economic standpoint, the
new operations inaugurated at Clark
dale have great Importance; for, be-
sides handling the output of the
United Verde mine, and later of the
Copper Giant and blackberry mines
under the same interests, large
quantity of custom ore will be treat
ed, thus Facilitating copper mining in
the entire district. Low w-grade ore
from both the Clark properties and
Others that could not heretofore be
economically handled. will also be
smelted, thereby not only enlarging
production but also bringing down
average costs. The capacity of the
plant will approach 5000 tons daily,
or more than double that of the old
works. Thos. Taylor, who made an
enviable record at the old smelter in
Jerome, has been placed in charge
of the new reduction works at Clark
dale as superintendent"

AMERICAN RED CROSS WORK
IN COMMUNITY OF JEROME


The work of the American Red
Cross society in Jerome, through the
medium of the Red Cross visiting
nurse, Miss Katherine KRAFT, r. N,
is giving the people of the community
number Of advantages enjoyed usu-
ally only in the larger cities Of the
United States, and that only in very
recent years.
Since the beginning of the Red
Cross visiting nurse work in Jerome
less than a year ago, considerable
progress has been made in the rails
ing of the standard of health and
cleanliness among the school children
of the town
Suspected cases of defect or all
ment are sent to the health officer
and a diagnosis made and treatment
prescribed, and follow up work by
home visiting in cases needing spe-
cial care is carried out by the nurse,
resulting in the wedding out of minor
ailments as well as number Of more
serious Affections. particularly that
Of trachoma~
When this dread disease cropped
out so noticeable in the beginning of
the present school term, for the most
part among pupils recently arrived
from out of town localities, some
uneasiness was felt; but now, after
the exclusion of pupils in a con-
tagious stage and six weeks of
steady, persistent treatment by the
city health physician, DR.. A ]. Muir
rietta, with the assistance of Miss
KRAFT working under his direction,
the danger is reduced to a minimum.
Added protection as well is furnished
by teaching the children to guard
against infection by sanitary care.
Instruction is given in the homes,
also. relative to sanitary precaution
and preventative treatment.
The school clinic, conducted by the
nurse in her office each school
morning, is an interesting spectacle,
where each child requiring the treat
nent obtainable there, be it for an
infected cut on the finger an in
cipient case of trachoma, or an ex-
animation preliminary to the ply
sician's diagnosis, in cases where any
defect, such as adenoids or tonsils, is
suspected, obtains the careful atten-
ton of Miss Kraft, who presides
over the mediate physical destines of
a small group, numbering from six
to eighteen children, each morning.
Aside from the regular school in
spection work, the home care of the
sick and instruction pertaining there
to, Miss Kraft has organized among
the young girls Of Jerome, both
American and of foreign birth or par
entage, two societies for the spread
Of social service.
In the first organized last spring,
a Little Mothers League" the girls
are taught sewing and the care of
an infant, and are encouraged to take
special interest in some brother or
sister who has not yet reached the
age Of one year
The bathing, proper dressing, feed
ing and handling of little baby are
taught in the class, sometimes demon
strating with real live baby as an
object lesson.
This work is patterned upon the

While large part of the electric
current used in operating the mine
and smelter is purchased from the
Arizona Power company, the re-
mainder will be generated by steam
plant.
Boiler feed and cooling water is
taken from the Verde river, where
there is a concrete intake in the bed
of the stream, and a pumping plant
equipped with two Aldrich pumps
having a combined capacity in "a
hours of nearly 100000 gals. The
water from the power plant is pump
ed to the cooling pond and forced
through the nozzles by the circulat-
ing pumps Of the condenser system:
but for the furnace jacket water spe-
cial provision had to be made. There
are two Allis- Chalmers units consist
