GYRAT|NC ABOUT JEROME 7, BY 0NE OF THE CYRATORs

But. and a word to the wise is Suf- ficient. the stranger to the camp can learn more in the conversation about the stove in the hotel lobby than from any other source. always expecting the inside and 1t might wei, be- hoove one to keep alert. So take the last COT, if need be. and be content.
 Few know. or. knowing. recall that Arizona Is the biggest producer os copper amongst the states. contribIt- ing annually closely twice as much as Montana of Michigan. ranking next respectively. Following this line Of thought is the equally interesting fact that the United States produces sixty per cent of the worlds copper and uses more than any other nation. Germany alone takes nearly one half Of all the copper we sell abroad oriin- arily and. remember this: With the outbreak Of the great war we lost our pes. customer. Why then. let rumors of peace depress us Jerome does not look for low copper pyices with the declaring of peace: it has always been what is known as good camp" You will be told by those who nave lived there for the last fif- teen years. that copper, though falling from war levels, will still be high enough to yield splendid profits to
 
 of peace We will naturally resume our copper relations with Germany as well as wi;h the allied nations. whose demand will be approximately great. Even greater than before, for tho greater part of our copper has gone into munitions and practically all of it has been destroyed beyond re- covery, Huge supplies of that com modi.y will be required for replace ment and in all departments of con stTaction and construction.
 In the last annual report of the Anaconda company appears the signl- ficant statement that the resump- ton of peace in Europe will with perhaps a brief intervening period Of re-ad1ustment Of copper. be accom- panied by m enormous demand foI copper. when Industrial activity Is resumed and the work of rehabllita- tion is undertaken
 So Jerome, both above and below. is busy. and. being busy. happy True. an invitation to dinner may entail a climb of several hundred feet. but. what of that. f the characteristic Jerome welcome awaits you and you. dinner be worth the eating?" One thing you may be assured. after a walk in that crisp. brisk atmosphere; of appetite you win have an excess and Jerome is not without the means of its assuaging.
 From the main street of the town. across the valley. thirty miles. 10 the gorgeously colored rim with the ma iestic snowcovered peaks of the San Francisco mountains rearing thei, tremendous heights beyond, is a view only equalled by the Grand Canyon itself. Surely the Jerome district is fit resting place for one of na- lures most wonderous treasure vaults. with her great store open to all. So go to Jerome-it is 5400 feet high and alive and pulsing. Here men labor and toll. but. they win. Here Is given the keenest impression of the great ness of this state; it typifIes its wonderous resources and emblazons the spirit of Arizona aroused.

The people who pass in the streets of Jerome are not all mine owners. mine promoters or miners. A familiar figure in the district Is T. A. Riordan.

 Clark Jerome Copper Go.
 The Clark Jerome Copper company is one of the late corners in the Je rome field. The eompanr is being or ganizcd with capitalization of S1.- 000,0 ,0o0 and ar equal number of shares, no stock being offered the public. The property consists of eight claims of the Cowocv group. four miles west of Jerome over the ridge of the Black Hills range. IL is understood that the first development work will be a tun nel from the body of canyon to in te~scet the principal non quartz ledge on the property
 There are several other quartz lodges that show more or less copper right on the surface. The company tkat has secured control of the Cow boy group is headed hy II. II. Clark who founded the camp of Bullfroe

 United Val Verde

 Jerome HecIa
 South Of t.se Copper Chief is the Jerome Hecla Copper company, q group Of e3 mireralized claims. The outcroppine at several places show ore running at 10 ner cent copper. The Jcrome Hecla is preparing to un- deriake development work with two- compartment shaft. The present plan Is to capitalize the company for $780, 000 with i.500,000 shares at soc par and for the purpose of incorporating the company and promoting the pros pect q small block of reorganization stock will be sold for 10c.

X limited amount of work has been done and copper ore has been encountered.
 Grand Island Copper Go.
 Another legitimate effort to find a mine is being made by a group of business and professional men who organized the Grand Island Copper company. Their efforts stand one of tEe chances that tte rich red metal field offers forsthe work is going for ward in a way that shows the earnest ness of their plrpose. The company is capitalized for $750.000 with l.50O,- GOO shares at soc par value.

prospecting in that direction.
 To the operator and underground man the important fact to bear in mind about the schist Is that it was derived from folded beds of lava ash and sedi- ments. These folds were very steep and at Jerome ran about north 10 de- grees to 20 degrees west, dipping about 70 degrees from the horizontal to the east. It was along the old folds that the diorite, the acid dikes and the min eralizing solution found their easiest upward path and for that reason the ore pipes or chimneys are always long CT in the directionJ<of the schistosity than across 1t. IL was also along these old folds that the shearing took place as they naturally proved to be tho lines of least resistance. just as a piece of slate will shear or cleaye most easily along it's Limitations. For this reason. at Jerome, the ore pipes are always longest fin a northwest. southeast east direction. and follow the dip of the schistosity downward.
 At times this schistosity may dip to the west for short depths due to ire gulariy in the original folding and shearing hut on the whole it. main tans it's typical strike and dip. with

 Old Nels. who was seventy seven years old on Monday, needs a bit more cash to develop his property, six miles from Jerome below the Copper Chief. and so he works day by day in the big change room of the United Verde.
 Seventy -seven-yet the old soldier from Denmark is the youngest of them all in his enthusiasm. Suppose he did lose thousands in mines in the otter mining camps. he doesn't see any reason for feeling right bad about it now" His bright eyes flash with the optimism as he discusses his prospect in the hills
 In 'G9 he mined in California and later went to Nevada. Still later he tried his luck in the mining districts in Arizona, in Tombstone, then Ray and Kelvin. where he dropped some lining like 5000.
 Pat Callahan, a shift boss of the United Verde, has much to say in regard to the nigh cost of living.
