-FOUR STATES To
MAKE NEW PLANS
Quarantine Conference Ex-
pected to Aid Southwest
Cattle Shipments.


Phoenix, Ariz.. Marcn IA definite
plan for a strict quarantine Of Texas.
New Mexico. Arizona and California.
but permitting shipments OF livestock
between those -FOUR s-ates under certain
restrictions, has been formulated by
san B. Bradner, secretary Of the Arizona
livestock sanitary board. Mr.. Bradner
IS &c submit his plan TO the proper Of
ficials Of the states interested at a con-
ference of sanitary boards of all the
states, scheduled TO be held in san
Francisco March %. Governor Hunt has
asked the governors OF Texas and New
Mexico to send representatives.
Arizona is at present more effectively
uuarrdntined against foot and mouth
disease than any other state. Domestic
animals OF all kinds, and articles packed
in straw, are excluded under an order
recently issued by governor Hunt Cal
ifOrnia permits the Importation OF beef
cattle.
All -Four Are Free.
There is no foot and mouth disease
] in Texas. Arizona, New Mexico or Cali
fOrnia." said secretary Bradner. There
is no reason why these southwestern
states should be absolutely Quarantlned
against each other. The plan Of this
board is to permit shipments, but IN
each case with the consent Of the vet
erinarian OF the state to which the ship
ment is destined. Cars should also be
thoroughly fumigated and cars from
infected districts should be rigidly ex-
cluded."
Catfiemen Going.
About 80 members Of the Arizona
Cattle Growers association are to 90 to
san Francisco in a special Pullman for
the conference Of sanitary boards and
the annual convention Of the American
National Livestock association. The

Supt. White, Of New Mexico
School, Praises the New
County Unit Law.

New Mexico has been lifted from
lower class in educational matters and
placed in a high rank along with In
diana and the other progressive
states" declared Alvin n White, state
superintendent Of public instruction for
New Mexico, who was here Tuesday
with his family.
THE signing by Gov. Mcdonald Of
the county unit school bill was the
climax Of a series Of splendid, con-
srructive educational measures which
were passed by the last legislature,
he declared "Of all the others this
one compelling the cities. towns and
incorporated municipalities Of what
ever class to maintain a minimum

most important and puts US in a class
where a state like New Mexico be-
longs.

school and, by the operation of the
new school legislation, may have as
much as nine months il the county
superintendent thinks it advisa bic.
Grant county, my own home county,
VIII have nine months next year. DOna
Ana county will have at least eight
months Of school in the rural districts
and Otero county, witch had but seven
last year. may increase this 10 eight
next year.
Budget System is Good.
''Under the new budget system Of
arranging finances for the schools Of
each county the superintendent pre-
pares the budget and makes his recon-
mendatiOn TO the county commission
ers' board. Should the commissioners.
for any reason refuse to make the
appropriations recommended by the
county superintendent Of schools, he
can appeal to the state board Of edu-
cation, Of which both the governor
and myself are members and which
will insure the Communications be-
ing approved providing they are rea-

Another splendid thing done this term
of the legislature was TO boost the age

COPPER LOWER, BUT
INQUIRY INCREASES

Prices Advance.
NEW RUSH Is EXPECTED

There has been n downward readjus,
ment OF copper prices TO a Level where
II is believed new buying OF Importance
VIII soon develop. Twenty cents a pound
for electrolytIc is the new basis. agains,
sales a month ago at 2Oi. and 2Ol,
cents a pound. European inquiry for the
metal Is increasing and there are evil
denccs that the market will soon he ac-
tive again.
one OF the most important develop
ments OF the trade is the fact that the
London Metal Exchange fluctuations nc
longer dominate American metal prices.
This Is due 10 the fact that London's
stocks OF copper now consist almost en-
tirely OF standards, which must he re-
fined to be OF marketable use, As the
British Government forbids the exporta-
ton of any OF It's copper and as the
refining capacity in England IL very
narrow, this standard copper must re-
main In warehouses as II is.
The standard warrant prices have. as
a result, dropped considerably and the
price for electrolytic, formerly affected.
has remained unchanged.
Lead and spelter markets have been
fairly active, Spelter prices have stiff
fened. Prime Western for spot delivery
is about 20 cents Il pound and brass
specials are at 20 cents.
The United States smelling. Mining
and Refining Company will become a
factor in the production OF spelter prac-
tically over night through the purchase
Of three Kansas smelters and a zinc
mine.
The plants acquired will be enlarged
and their total capacity will be raised
to 5000 tons OF spelter monthly, equal
to $4,000 tons per annum Contracts
have been let for the increased capacity,
which will mean the equipment OF sew
eral additional blocks Of six retorts
each.
/ The mine bought by the United States
Company lies without the zine belt. a
short distance from Joplin. 1t has rot
been operated for several years and has
consequently filed with water.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
Caucasus mines have not been able to
operate since last year, plans have been
made for a big increase in the copper
production of Russia for 1915. The out
! put last year for that country approxi-
mated 70.96S.626 pounds. while csti-
mates for the current year run as high
as $4,000, 900 pounds.
Consumption Of copper in Russia last
year was 74,SlO,G79 pounds. against "a
AT 1855 pounds in the preceding year.
4 very heavy gain was shown over the
consumption of 1912. when only 67,S75,-
$50 pounds were used.
A heavy export tax on copper has
held the Russian production of that
metal within that country's own bOun-
daries and producers have received
benefit to the extent OF about 9 cents n
pound,
Exports OF copper from the United
States to Russia have been very heavy
since the beginning OF the European war.
as the manufacturing industries en-
ployed in making war munitions have
been unable to meet their full require
mcnts with the home product.
Since the recent holidays the demand
for lead has come principally from for
eign sources. but early In the month
