CHEWING GUM FROM
THE OCOT|LLO CACTUS

PHOENIX, Ariz., July 13.-To de-
octillo cactus. the Arizona Chicle Gum
company has, been formed here. The
new concern, which has acquired all
the patents, leases and other holdings
of the Cactus Rubber Gum company
formed some months ago, is planning
to erect plant at Mesa, Arizona, for
the manufacture of chewing gum from
the cactus which covers large part
of, the mesa lands of the state.
Leases on almost million acres of
ocotillo land in Texas have already
been secured by the company, which
proposes to lease thousands of acres
from the state of Arizona. and to trans
plant ocotillo cactus to tracts where
it does not grow. The land, it is
pointed out, will also be available for
grazing purposes and can be leased to
cattle owners as we'll as to the COM

DUNDEE DEVELOPMENT BEING
WATCHED WITH INTEREST

member of the force is exerting HIM
self to the utmost to make a record
in putting down the Dundee shaft.
The shaft is down over 800 feet today
and is progressing downward at the
rate of five feet every "a hours. Three
shifts are employed
This rate of progress has been main
tanned ever since Sunday, January 2,
when Superintendent Hubbard took
the compressor apart and reassembled
it. Though it had been installed nearly
properly up to that time.
The Dundee is also equipped with
small but efficient hoist Though the
present machinery is sufficient for
sinking several hundred feet farther
the management is SO pleased with
the showing made that the installation
of heavier equipment is already under
consideration.
The Dundee Arizona Copper COM
pany Is capitalized Tor only 5UO,00O.
1t has over 100000 in the treasury
This is ample to put the shaft down
to much greater depth than has been
attained by the United Verde Exten-
sion company. As the surface of the
Dundee ground is 200 feet loweA than
the collar of the main Extension shaft,
it is believed that the ore will be
found at lesser depth

MAIN TUNNEL ON
P|NA[ IS CLOSE
TO BODY OF ORE

Heavily mineralized rock is being
encountered in the main tunnel now
being driven by the Pinal Develop
ment company on it's property in the
Ray Christmas copper belt, and there
is every indication that a large body
of copper ore will be tapped in the
course of future operations. The tun-
mel has now entered the fault zone
where important developments are to
be expected at almost any time.
]. c. Devine, president and general
manager of the Pinal Development
company, has returned from Los Ange-
les where he has been for the last ten
days attending to the purchase of
machinery and supplies for the COM
pany. He is now on the ground ar
ranging for new and important devel-
opments at the property.

100000 VOTERS

PHOENIX, Ariz., July 13.-The num-
ber of registered voters in Arizona for
the next general election will be al
most 100000, according to estimates
compiled by the secretary of state, who
is preparing to publish and distribute
the publicity pamphlets to the electors
of the state. The fact that it is a
presidential election year. and increas-
ing interest in the use of the franchise
by women of the state, it is believed
will bring about a marked increase
over the 1914 registration, when the to-
tai number Of voters who registered
was in excess of 1900.

No property under development in
the Jerome district is being watched
with closer interest than is the Dun
dee-Arizona.
The Dundee, formerly known as the
Greenflower, lies on the south side of
the "Hogback" and just at the eastern
edge of Jerome The main workings
of the United Verde Extension are
only few hundred feet to the south
west. Between the Dundee and Ex-
tension lies that part of the Jerome
Verde that is under development
Only two claims are included in the
Dundee, but it is claimed that they
have better surface indications than
any other locations in the district. A
belt of carbonate ore, forty feet wide,
extends through the claims. BY some
it has been thought that this carbon
ate is an overflow from some other
part of the district, that it is mere
surface deposit, but this theory is dis
proved by the presence of minute
quantities of sulphide. Anyone who
knows anything at all about mining
knows that the sulphide must have
been forced up from below.
James A. Hubbard, a pioneer mining
man, is superintendent of the Dundee
and he has under him a crew which
he claims, is the best that he has
commanded in his long career. Every

STUPE|VDOUS GAINS
Of THE COPPERS
(By George Graham Rice).

The copper shares broke all records
OF dividends profits and production in
the second quarter of 1916 which has
Just ended, repeating the record
quarter and the quarter before that.
Thirty three dividend paying, strictly
copper producing companies, disburSed
no less than $36,777,39S in the three
months ending June 80. In the pre-
yious three months they paid dividends
ol $26, 1888, ,2S5, making the total divi-
lends for the six months period $685.
,6S3. These disbursements compare
with profits made by the same com
panies of 1852, 1S1 ,0O0. In other words,
these companies have disbursed less
chan one half of their entire earnings.
These thirty three dividend paying
copper companies produce approx
mately 80 per cent of our total copper
output. and are earning considerably
over Sc per cent of the total profits of
SiiC fAiiiCilCetH NOPPCl- III
dustry.
A price of 25gcents approximates the
FER pound average received for the
metal actually delivered during the six
months. On this basis have been cal
.ulated theaprofits derived. ON the
otner hand, before the end of the year
IG is reasonably certain that the com
panies will have marketed at the full
average price OF rs Is cents their pro-
auction OF the first six months: There
lore, the profits actually earned and
% be earned on the production for the
,lX months might justly be measured
ON price of 267s cents per pound for
>opper, and would ada $17,000,0U0 to
ne profits which were actually re-
-elved or realized during the six
months past.
There is popular fallacy that the
Unprecedented boom in copper is due
to the war in Europe and to the de-
an shells, explosives, mines field wires,
etc. This is wholly untrue. American
copper mines and now producing nearly
l,OO0000,00 pounds per annum, or
l,000,000,000 pounds more than before
the war, yet copper exports have not
only failed to increase, but have ac-
lually decreased 800, 900 pounds per
annum since the war began. The great
consumption of the metal is in the arts
and not in war in Europe. The raven
Gus consumers of the swollen copper
production comprise the greatly ex-
panded automobile and motor indus
tries of this country, new power trans
mission lines, railway identification,
new shipping, and railway construc-
tion and equipment.
Looking into the future it may be
added that despite the recent decline
in the price of the metal, dividends
in the third quarter of 1916 will ex-
ceed those of the record breaking Sec
ond quarter, as producers are, in the !
main, sold in advance. Already further |
increases have been announced.
In this connection it is an interest |
ing commentary in history that, al |
though the previous boom in copper
was in 1912, the actual high tide of |
dividend distribution resulting from
the boom of 1912 followed later on in
1913
