Report covering second quarter Of 1916, as follows:
 Development, feet, 16,217; cost of mining and coarse crushing, cents per ton, S0.S5; ore treated, tone, S65,300; average content per, cent. 1881; cost of treatment, cents per ton, 51.41; cop per production, pounds (with crude ore smelted) .19,171 23S: cost, cents per pound, l0507 profit. $3,242,542; divi- dends, $7SS.59o; surplus, $2.4o3,952.
 Over 11000 tons more was treated the yield was 3,300000 pounds greater the profit was an increase of $1,000,000 and the surplus $1, ,O00,000 more than in the first quarter. Dividends were prac tically the same.
 The profit was almost $3,000, 900 larger than in the March quarter There was no unsold copper on hand at the end of the term. Costs were low cred O.364c per pound. The surplus shows a gain of over S2,000,000.
 Magma
 In the second quarter of 1916 the Magma Copper Go. produced 2,232,9 ,936 pounds of copper, with a profit of $3O5, O25. The price received was 24.16c per pound. while costs were 1047c Respective figures for the pre- vious term were 2,O43.7S4 pounds, s27O,- POI, 22 39c, and 9.13 cents.
 New Ore Body Has Been Opened Up
 Official announcement of important developments at the Magma property may be made shortly. We are reliably informed that a new ore body has been encountered which will add materially to the companys reserves.
 Magma has an issued capitalization of 240, ,000 shares, with a par value of S5. In 1915 the company produced G. 046, ,459 pounds of copper, on which net profits of S611,729 were derived. These profits were equal to SECT per share.
 In the first half of this year Magma produced 4,276,720 pounds of copper and showed net profits of $1,150, ,452 which is equal to the annual rate of S4.79 per share.
 Recently. Magma's production has been pushed to the annual rate of ap- proximately 10,000,000 pounds, and in- 1 dications are that earnings this year will be between $5.50 and $6 per share.
 Magma is high grade property, and in the 1915 year the average cost of producing copper was only 6.S2c per pound. The company has been low iT ! ore reserves, however. At the close oi ! 1915, the official estimate of ore re- serves was 90,O0O tons. The announce ment expected in q few days will | therefore, be particularly gratifying tC | stockholders.

A Comparison

Arizona has a number of copper mining companies, rivaling Michigan in that respect, and contrasting with the copper mining industry in Mon tant, Utah, Nevada, Alaska, and New Mexico. where one or two large com- panies account for the bulk of the out put. Of large mines Arizona has full share It is scarcely necessary to men, tion the Copper Queen and Calumet & Arizona at Bisbee, the Inspiration and Miami at Miami, the Ray Consolidated at Ray, the Old Dominion at Globe, the United Verde at Jerome, the Arizona Copper at Clifton, and the New Cor nelia at Ajo. Among companies of more moderate size are the Shattuck- Arizona at Bisbee, che Consolidated Arizona at Humboldt, the Arizona Commercial and Iron Cap at Globe. the shannon at Metcalf, the Detroit Cop per at Morenci the Ray Hercules at Ray, the Magma at Superior, the United Verde Extension at Jerome and several others less well known. The Shattuck Arizona Copper Co. which produced 11,154,211 pounds of copper in 1915, makes occasional ship ments of lead ore. The Magma Cop per Co. produced 6,o46,459 pounds of copper last year from 59,219 tons of ore. which is well over 100 pounds per ton.

United States Mineral Production
 The value of the mineral production or the United States in 1915, accord ing to preliminary figures compiled by the U. s Geological Survey. was approximately 73,000,0 900, a gain of $25S,OOO,0O0, or more than 12G6 over 1914. The value for 1915 has been ex- ceeded but once-in 1913-when a to- tai of $2,439, 100000 was recorded.
 The metallic products reached the greatest value ever recorded, having advanced from $691 ,000, 900 in 1914 to S9Sl ,5O0,OOO in 1915-a gain of nearly 43Tc. The metals contributing most largely to this increase their combined gains being 9196 of the total, are as follows: Pig iron, increase $102, ,63O, 900. or 349o; copper, s89, 930, 900, or 59qs; and zinc. $7S,589,000, or 2249o.
 The value of the non- metallic pro- ducts in 1915 has been exceeded in 1913 and 1914 only. showing in 1915 a de- crease of less than 3% from the pre- cedlng year. The figures for 1914 and 1915 are s1,423,000,000 and $1,3S5, ,O0O.- : oo0, respectively The final figures for the value of the non metallic products Tn 1915 may be somewhat increased over the preliminary figures given. me mining activities and output re- ported for the six months just ended show that 1916 promises to be a record
 breaking year in the value of minera i products.

POPULARITY OF SUDAN GRASS
Inquiries Being Made as to Its Adap liability in Certain SectioHs-
 lc Sensitive to Cold.

tBy JAMES D. MARSHALL. Colorado Agricultural College. Fort Collins. Co'oD
 Owing to the popularity of sudan grass many inquiries are being made regarding it's adaptability to different sections. Sudan grass belongs to the sorghum group. consequently its soil and climatic demands are similar to those of the other members of the sorghum group, such as cane, kafir. milo, feterita, etc.
 As sudan grass is plant of tropical origin. it requires abundant sunshine and warm weather. and is very sensi- tive to cool nights. At high attitudes, where the nights are generally cool, it will not do well, even when the days are warm and sunshiny.
 It is safe rule to follow that sudan grass will do well in all localities where feterita can be successfully grown, as the demands of the two crops are very similar.

GRAIN AND ALFALFA
 HAY FOR THE LAMBS
Grinding Not Profitable Under Present Conditions, Accord
 ing to Nebraska Station.

Experiments conducted at the Ne braska Experiment station during the last winter indicate that the grinding Of grain and alfalfa hay for lambs is not profitable under present condi- tions. While lambs fed a mixture Of ground corn and ground alfalfa went on full feed quickly, cleahed up their feed each meal. and remained thrifty and vigorous throughout the entire feeding experiment, their increased weight was put on at a cost consid- erably higher than that of lambs fed shelled corn and whole alfalfa hay. The difference amounted to practically $1 on each 100 pounds gain. The same striking difference was notice able in comparing lambs fed on ground corn, ground alfalfa. and corn silage and those fed shelled corn, whole al. falfa, and corn silage.

per cent amounts to Sl1.l0 for every SOW pen. and the annual cost of each pen, including interest. depreciation. repairs. and insurance. would be about $27, which is amply sufficient to pay for a good pen outright It is hard to see how such . building can ever pay for itself.
 A large house should always stand east and west, facing the south, so that the maximum amount of sunshine may be had in each pen. When a double house is used. the outside pens on the north are often of little use in early spring and late fall on ac- count of the shade and the cold winds. This difficulty can be partially over come, however, by changing sows so that those which have not farrowed and those with the oldest pigs. which have least need of the warm pens, are on the north side.
 In the majority of large hog houses the upper windows are not so placed that the sunshine will strike the floor when it is most needed there. In CeeC, q nOS mousse Nltu tne WINDOWS in the proper position is rarely seen. Direct sunshine should strike the floor in every pen for as many hours in the day as possible at the time when the pigs are farrowed. Nearly everyone realizes this is matter Of the great est importance. but too often the build: CT does not take the trouble to find out whether he is getting it or not Ordinarily the farmer has no means of ascertaining where to put the win dows so as to get the maximum amount of sunshine at the time he wants 1t. unless he happens to be building just at that time. which is very unusual. The country is dotted with hog houses in which the owner

care for them early in March. Early March pigs are large enough to begin to eat as soon as pasture is ready and thus get the longest possible pasture season, and can be expected 10 make more pork from grass than Is possible for later pigs. They can be kept on pasture until ready for market, or nearly so. Not only can they make more use of pasture but they can make more economical use of all feed because they can be finished for mar ket before the cold weather of winter sets in when grains are more expen- sive. If these pigs are crowded. many of them can be marketed by the first Of October. Without a good house two filters a year cannot be raised to advantage, because the spring pigs must be put of until so late that the fall filters do not get well started be fore cold weather, but with a good house two filters can well be raised. Most farmers do not feel that they can keep an old SOW for one litter. but with two filters it becomes diff NIG pAc-S'sAN'NA. II 10 NAAA'VA So44g conceded that old sows raise better pigs than young ones, and the keep ing of old sows enables one to select and keep only the best producers.
 4 little pig loves sunshine and needs 1t almost as much as he needs food. No piggery is fit for the pur- pose unless 1t admits direct sunshine onto the floor of every pen at the time the pigs are farrowed, furnishes plenty of fresh air. and provides for exercise in the open air. Dryness, sunshine, warmth. fresh air, freedom from drafts, and exercise are of pri- mary importance in raising pigs. These secured. the battle is half won. Tn putting up buildings the six re luirements just mentioned must be kept constantly in mind; not one can be neglected.
 The writer knows of one farmer who has a spendid farm with a fine house on it and a large. modern horse barn. His hog shed is 24 feet wide and si feet long, and there is not a single window or ventilator in it. The only

means of admitting air and light are the alley doors and a few small hog doors.
 The writer has personal knowledge of another hog house quite similar to this but only about half as large. the only openings being one alley door, one hog door. and one small window. in this house over 90 per cent of the early pigs were lost in some seasons, mostly from thumps. The loss in a single season would have more than paid for a good building

GREAT AIM 0! BEEF
 AND PORK PRODUCER
Set All Gain on the Calves and Pigs During Early Months
 of Their Lives.

The aim Of the beef and pork pro ducer should be to set all the gain on the calves and pigs possible during the early months of their lives.
 Calves make much cheaper gains up to ten months old and pigs up to six months old than they do after these periods.
 Y is not uncommon now to see well finished baby beef steers on the mar ket at the age of twelve to fifteen months and occasionally some come in at less age than that; while the bulk of the hogs now come to the mar ket in well finished condition at eight months old weighing around 2ss pounds.

CROPS FOR A DRY FARM
Kafirs Can Be Recommended as
 a Staple Feed.
Three-Year Feeding Test Made by Kansas Agricultural College With Both Dairy and Beef Cattle
 Sorghum Yields We'll.
CBy IT. M. coTTRELLD

Nby SoA
 The permanent prosperity of large part of the southwest Is dependent upon the intelligent raising and feed ing of the kafirs-kafir. milo and fe- terita. There have been only two failures of kafir in g years in Kansas and only one in 20 years in Oklahoma. The failure in 1913 was due chiefly to the use of degenerate seed and too thick planting. Many of the farmers who planted well.bred seed not too thickly secured good yields of grain. while their neighbors raised fodder only.
 Kafir can be recommended as the staple feed for districts having an an nual rainfall of 24 inches. Feterita has not been tested long enough to determine positively where it will be profitable as a main crop. The indi- cations are that 1t is adapted to sec tions having less than an average of 16 inches of rainfall year.
 The Kansas Agricultural college. by three-year feeding .es. w::h both beef and dairy cattle. demonstrated that, pound for pound, silage made from corn, from kafir and from sor- ghum have equal feeding values, pro yided each Is cut at the proper stage of maturity. and that the choice Of which Of these crops should be plant d for silage depends on which will probably produce the greatest tonnage per acre. Over a large part of the southwest, kafir will produce heavier yield than corn. Sorghum will yield more than kafir.
 Tn planting kafir. the black hulled white is the best variety to plant. The dwarf milo should be planted on the plains. No distinct varieties of feterita have been developed. but there are many white seeded sor- ghums sold for feterita, and these should be avoided.
 Dwarf kafir has been grown by sev- eral Of the plains experiment stations the past two or three years, and the results of both milo and feterita as the staple feed grain for districts in the southwest having less than 2+ inches ot rainfall yearly. Dwarf katir is as early as either milo or feterita. On this account it requires moisture for thirty days shorter season than the standard kafir. Its seeds grow up- right, so that it is easily harvested by machinery. It is low in height. requiring a minimum of moisture for growing stalk. The stalk is thick and short-jointed, withstanding heavy winds well. It shatters little, allow ing at least three months time in which to harvest it after the heads have ripened.
 The best yields of kair, milo and feterita are produced from choice homegrown seed. Where this cannot be secured, seed should be obtained from as near home as possible.
