 thus created and not employed at the shelter is to be sent over the line to Bisbee to operate machinery at the mines. There is to be a new 1,5OO-gal- lon per minute. threatening electrical pump installedatthe Junction shaft. oneof the main shafts of the company that has reacheda depth of more than 1,S00 feet. It is the sinking and ope- ration of this shaft that is now en- couraging Denn-Arizona to resume operations as the water that former ly bothered it, and caused it's suspen- sion several years ago. Is now being lifted from the junction shaft which Is to greater depth than the shaft of the Denn mine. The operation of the new pump at the Junction will be of little expense due to the low power cost thatis tobe obtained under the plan decided on. The junction is a very fine shaft, is concreted from top ito bottom, and it penetrates a great ore field that is to be considerably ex- tended as time goes on. Develop 'ments here are very favorable, which
 canalso be said of the company's property as whole, the addition to orereserves last year being very large.
 Thesulphuric acid plant referred to in several issues of Iron Ore is to pro- duce, when completed, 192 tons of 62- degree, Baume, acid, per day. This addition will be placed east of the roaster plant and General aMnager Greenway expects to have it completed by the first of January, in 1917. The reader will wonder, on reading the es- innate of capacity, that such an enor- nous quantity of acid can be produced daily. The plant will be highly eff cient. naturally embracing all the best modern features, and its operation should return a very handsome profit to the company which will have use for considerable amount of the pro- duct in it's teaching of New Cornelia ores at Ajo. Sulphuric acid is now very high due to war needs and lack of importations from abroad. The force of necessity has encouraged the Americans to supply their own wants, and former wastes are being utiliz- ed.
 Trips to the United Verde Exten- sion property in Jerome are getting to o Aou "lli ulSll0RulS0eQ mining men, insisting Arizona who have heard of this sensational mine.
 'Thedaily output of the property has now been increased to 200 tons per day and all this ore is coming to the Copper Queen shelter For the month of March, 5,92O tons of ore were shipped to the smelters, includ- sng both classes. Of this about one. fourth was chased as first class ore and itsaverage value was 30 per cent copper. The other three-fourths gave 8 value of 15 per cent copper. The abovetonnage contained about 2.OOO.- O0O pounds of copper
 Practically all the work at the mine IS now being done on' the 14OO-foot ',evel. and is ebing pushed steadily along. An uprise is in high grade ore Tor slXty-five feet. The ore body on this level is 120 feet wide at the north end and 200 feet wide attlle south-end where, however. the wall has not vel been reached, nor has the extent of theore laterally to the south yet been tedtermined. This ore body may cor rectly be described as wonderful one
 The work of sinking a winzc in the ore is being started now. To fa.
