sERv-Us MINCE MEAT

Package condensed mince meat is
made up today OF the best quality Of
dried fruit and other items which can
be found, all of which are found in
the United States with the exception
of spices and currants. The study of
packing condensed mince meat has ex-
tended over a period of 100 years and
today is as near it's perfection as we
can possibly conceive. The sanitation
in the factories in which it, is packed
is beyond reproach as the competition
today in these lines necessitates the
guarding of the most minute detail of
the business. The apples used are of
the best grade of New York State,
where in our opinion is grown the
best favored apple known The
raisins used are Of the best quality
seeded variety. No expense is con-
sidered in procuring the very highest
grade of spices, and sugar, as we all
know, is always sugar. the different
grades merely representing the differ
ent devors or different granulatiop re-
quired for different purposes. Every
particle of fruit or any other article
used in the manufacture of mince meat
is thoroughly cleaned and hand picked
by people trained to know what should
and should not be used and in this
manner the article comes to the house
wife cleaner by far than she could
possibly take the same articles in her
own kitchen, regardless of how clean
1t may be, and make UP the filler for
her mince pie. The old idea of dirt
being prevalent in quantity Is today
disputed by the greatest authorities on
food products. The meat used in
mince meat is Of the choicest and to-
day the same corn-beef which you
and would use ON our table is what
Is being used in Serv-us Mince Meat
There are very few pies made which
can be used as handfly by the house
wife as mince meat for all 1t requires
is little water and being heated for
ten minutes and It is ready for the
crust and then the table and she may
without fear of loss carry three or
four packages of mince meat in her
pantry, having 1t ready at any time
for the chance occurrence of unexpect-
ed company All # will be q good
dessert free from dirt. It is our
thorough belief that mince meat pie
made from condensed mince meat Is
about as cheap dessert as can be
prepared and yet as good.
For many years mince meat was
considered q winter dish. Each year
for the last ten our factory has had
to increase it's capacity during the
summer months until today It runs
every day OF the year with q regular
force of helpers. We ship goods to
every part OF the country the entire
year. This OF course means q great
increase in the use Of these goods over
when ininee meat was eaten only In
the winter months which means an in
creased sale over the former winter
consumption.

dances a war dance. We quite felt
we were back in the Fennimore Coop
er days. Below is Hawthorne's Cave,
which is Of peculiar interest, as 1t was
here he is said to have written the
first chapters Of his Scarlet Letter.
However. the chief attraction is a lit
tie farther on to the Songo rivor.
The passage up this narrow, tortuous
river is the most novel feature of the
trip. This is rightly called the
"crokedest" Of al lstreams. Sengo is a
word OF Indian origin and means The
Outlet. 1t IS only one and q half
miles as the bird flies and yet the
steamer must go six miles and make
angles. Like Agag it behooved us to
move delicately. We were often
within leaping distance of the bank
and thought nothing OF nearly up
roofing small trees on our way down
the stream. Songo is the most err
ratio bit Of watery nature possible to
conceive. We wound around so as to
almost see our own backs. I never

The whole days trip is unique, es-
pecially passing thro' the Locks. Here
our steamer was imprisoned in rein
forced concrete walls In such close
quarters that on ecoul dstep from
dock to shore, literally zone foot on

in the lock is raised seven feet to
lift the boat up over the rapids. from
the Songo to the Bay of Naples, from
here an ideal sail home.
These are only few little trivial
pictures that shine and glow from the
twilight Of our memories, but, if these
memories, so precious in the gather

for those whose travel is by the fire

600 pounds, or about cne-eleventh of
the total copper produced in the United
states during the year. However. the
Warren district output falls short of
that of the banner year of 1913 by
several million pounds, because Of
slack production early in the year
1t is estimated that in the year 1915

and 81. OOO. coo pounds Of copper. The

now rated the highest in the United
states. There are more men at work
than ever before. But while business is
on a stable foundation. there has been
some complaint regarding general con-
ditions, especially that miners were not
spending as freely as their pay checks
warranted However, that is accounted
for bv the fact that bank deposits ana

Expect To Get Experiment Station.
Satisfactory progress is reported
relative to the efforts to secure a
United States mining experiment sta
ton for Arizona. The support and en-
dOrsement of the various commercial
clubs in the state have been received,
and floods Of letters have been ritten
by Influential men within the state to
Van II. Manning, director of the Z. s
bureau of mines; Franklin K Lane,
secretary of the interior, as well as to
sentative Hayden, urging them TO do
all in their power to secure the appro-
priation for such stations.
The last session OF congress passed
what is known as sthe kern-F Foster
bill, authorizing the esta blishment Of
ten state stations, three to be estab-
Hshed each year. The appropriation
for these is in the budget Of the Z. S.
bureau of mines, and the establishment
of such stations depends upon the pass
ing of the appropriation bill
While there is no surety that Ari-
IONA will receive one of the first Of
these stations, the hearty endorse
ment Of so many prominent men call
ing attention to Arizona and its need
Of such a station, cannot fail to have

Such a station in Arizona would
handle the solution OF such large prob
lens as would be national in scope,

mean much to Arizona. as it would
mean that the researches of a compe-

The apparent increase in the guam
tity of marketed production in 1915 is
accounted for by the continued output
I OF oil in large quantities from the
Gushing field, Oklahoma, during the
first half of the year. and from the
Humble pool. Texas, during the entire
year. as well as by the discovery and
rapid development of new pools in
| Louisiana and Texas.
Discoveries in Northern Texas.
Interest in the Panhandle region
was conferred at Strawn. Palo Pinto
county, where oil was discovered on
January II. 1915, at a depth Of S35 feet
in well drilled for gas by the Texas
& Pacific Coal Co, on its extensive
holdings in that locality. The shallow
depth proved an attractive feature and
before the end Of the year the Strawn
field had more than rs oil and gas wells
and was credited with an output Of
oil estimated at more than $50 barrels
: day.
In the south central part OF the state
an oil field of small area was devel-
Oped at Thrall in Williamson county
as a result of q wildcat test completed
at a depth OF about $50 feet on Feb
uary 81. The accumulation Of oil in
this field in porous rock Of igneous
origin intruded into a succession Of
impervious shales and marls is unique,
no similar type Of oil occurrence be-
ing known in the United States.

Among the coastal pools of Texas

and in production Interest was CEN
tered in the Stevenson and Landslide
leases southeast of the oil field where
a number Of gusher wells penetrating
the deep sands increased the output OF
the field from $4,000 barrels day in
August to $4,000 barrels a daE in Oe-
tOber and November. Unsuccessful at
tempts were made to extend the pro-
ductive area Of the SOurlal1e field TO
the north and to the west In the Sar-
atoga, Batoon, Goose Creek and Muir
khan pool no developments OF conse-
quence were reported. At Spindletop
the deep test west Of the old develop
ment begun by the Gulf production
company in November, 1914, was com
pleted on June 9. 1915. at a depth of
APO feet without a discovery of oil
