Represents 100000 Expenditure

New Cornelia represents the eX-
penditure of six million dollars in plant
and equipment preliminary to the re-
turn Of a dollar to those who put up
the money to see the property through
after Captain John c. GreenWay. gem
eral manager of Calumet & Arizona.
and DR.. l.. D. Ricketts,, consulting en-
gineer, advised purchase of the con-
trolling interest in the property and
thereafter set about working out its
final problems, among the most com
pick ever attacked by mining men in
the copper industry. The success they
attained and that is now being so
handsomely demonstrated in the out
put of metal means large returns,
probably around $40 the share annu-
ally on a Is cent copper market to C.
& A. on its holdings of above 20 per
cent of the stock of New Cornelia,
with like earnings for the owners of
the remaining outstanding stock of the
company, which was derelict, practi-
cally abandoned and hopeless, when
taken over by the c. & A. in 1911. The
activities of the company in its pres
ent production will mean a monthly
pay roll of around $4,000 added to
the Arizona total Steam shovel pit re-
duction plant and railroad workers en-
ter largely into the total of Cornelia
employees. Machine shop, power plant,
pumping station, townsite and other
forces are also maintained. A popula-
ton of $500 is dependent upon the
operations of the company and of
smaller operators, engaged in the de
velopment of mineral resources, the
facilities making their work possible
having been provided by New Cor
nelia through its railroad construction
water development and other pro-
visions.

The Carmelita Company

The Carmelita Mining and Milling
company of which mention has recent
ly been made and which has been
briefly described is daily attracting
further attention since these old prop
critics have recently been taken over
and the development of them begun
by such we'll known men as Captain p.
P. Parker the president of the COM
pany ard J. A. MARI the general man
ager It was Mr. Mari who became in
terested in them three years ago by
the purchase of a share in them from
Mrs. Carmelita Campbell who had
owned them for forty years. More than
a generation ago she worked the ore
from them iii an arrastra. supervis-
ing a lot of Meyicans and Indians. The
ore was TRANSPORTED a long distance
from the mine to the Campbell ranch
for at that time no water had been
developed at the mine. Even under
those hard conditions and crude opera
tons the property was productive.
There were thirteen of the original
claims to which four have been added
by Mr.. MARI.
Mrs. Campbell on account of her ad
vanced age was compelled to abandon
work on the property but now she IS
equally interested under the new ar
rangement. Water sufficient for opera
ton and camp purposes has been de-
veloped on the property and a road
has been constructed so that one can
reach the property by automobile. Con-
siderable work has already been done.
There is one shaft of 120 feet, the old
Yuma shaft, which it is proposed to
carry down to 800 feet and by drifting
from the bottom of it under the apex
of the mountain there will be left over
head 1900 feet of ore.
There are on the property two main
fisure veins the length of four claims
and four feet in width. They can be
seen from the surface for the above
mentioned distance and then they go
over or through the adjacent noun

Another Biz Producer

The beginning of production of cop
per by the New Cornelia Copper~Co.
commenced on Saturday a week ago
under the most suspicious of circum-
stances and has continued with the
utmost smoothness in every one of the
various department. The success of
the great plant in every way has been
determined in the metal that is being
output and there is naturally carried
Herewith a very great deal of salts
faction for those associated with
the bringing of the great enterprise to
completion. The rate of metal out
put expected in the beginning of
operations is being exceeded. The
plant has been going at the rate or
more than 39,5000,000 pounds the month
from the very start. The expectation
had been that output of 5000. 900
pounds the month during the first
several months would be doing cx-
ceptionally well. Breaking in of equip
ment of so extensive character, it was
held, would proceed with some bitches
and more or less slowness. The man.
agement beat that part of the game
however, by turning on the power and
commencing the final tuning up a
month in advance of turning over on
production. In consequence every ad-
JuStment had been made and there
were no loose ends anywhere from the
steam shovels in the great copper pit
TO the very last vat in the process Of
forming the copper cathode, ready for
the hands of the consumer without an
other minute of delay, except that in
terposed by railroad transportation
from New Cornelia to the door of the
consumer. Thus does New Cornelia
beat any other producer of electrolytic
copper in the world by sixty days in
time of turning its copper into the
hands of the buyer of the finished pro-
duct. The sixty days difference is re-
quired by other producers of electro
lytic to get their copper to and through
the electrolytic process plants on the
Atlantic coast Ninety days is a
much nearer estimate on the average
time required

Only Bio Gain of the Year

New Cornelia adds the only big
source of new copper production gain
ed by the world in 1917. Notwith-
standing large difficulties which in
terposed in the securing of prompt de-
liveries of machinery and structural
steel, by reason of the rush of war
orders with which manufacturers
were contending during the height of
New Cornelia demands, and notwith-
standing more than sixty days delay
occasioned by an unjust strike, the
construction period was brought to
conclusion and the output of copper
commenced month ahead OF the time
set for completion when the work was
undertaken under fair skies in 1915.
Prior to that time there had been con-
tinuous research on the property since
1911, to the end of determining its val
ue and thereafter to determine it's
needs in absolutely accurate measure

Eclipse Of Sun in Antarctic.

Astronomers were much interest
ed in the partial eclipse of the Christ
mas midnight sun, which occurred Dec.
"A. 1t was visible only in the Ant
arctic.
The shadow of the moon missed the
earth. extending far out into space
thousands of miles below the south pole
but in the region about the pole, a
one hundredth part of the suns d.
amcter was covered.
Perhaps the most remarkable feature
of the Christmas eclipse, one in which
astronomers are deeply interested, is
that its course over the earth was from
east to west instead Of from west to
east as is almost Invariably the case.
As the date of its occurrence was not
far from that of the longest day in the
southern hemisphere and the shortest
day in the northern hemisphere, 1t fol-
lows that there are regions in the Ant
arctic circle from which it was obscrV-
ed as an eclipse of the midnight sum-

Arouse Interest
in Arithmetic by
Using Local Color

Arithmetic problems with local in
terest, which will appeal more directly
to high school pupils because of their
home application, are ITO be SNeh
classes in mathematics at the aigh
school by Hiss Cora Crowder. Miss
Crowder has had prepared at the Mar
shalltown Club complete list Of all
manufacturers AMI jobbers in this city,
together with the name Of the article
they manufacture or sell.
With these names as a basis, Miss
Crowder proposes to present a series of
problems which will be of greater value
in classes. t is reasonable to surmlse
that a boy or girl will be more inter-
ested in an arithmetical problem which
has for it's basis the statement that If
10 per cent of the 100 men employed
at the Lennox Furnace Company are
laid off at certain seasons of the year,
and If % per cent of the remaining
number are employed in one depart
ment, what would be the number of
men available for a Job in another por-
tion of the factory?
Another argument in favor of using
local names and details in problems is
the fact that some Of the children may
be given examples to work out which
have to do with concern where their
father is working, and the result will
be not only a solution of the problem
but an added interest in the factory
work.
Reports from other cities where this
scheme has been tried are to the effect
that it has had very good rsults, as a
problem in which names familiar to the
pupil are used is much more apt to at
tract his attention and application than
one in which the names are merely
designed as "Mr. A." and "Mr. b.

The Gunder Meetings.

An audience OF winch 80 per cent
were men heard Evangelist Claude A.
GuELsr in the Baptist Presbyt erian
meeting at the Baptist church WlGnes-
day night. Mr.. Gunder pr>ached oC
"David'S Prayer" as found in the text
from Psalms 1879: 1924 Mr.. Gunder
said in part: .-.'.
This prayer was prayer of David.
1t certainly should be a good prayer
for you and me. 1t is personal pro-
noun prayer. David wasn't paying any
attention to his neighbor;, or the COM
munity at large. He wasn't thinking
of the deacons oh his preacher. He
was praying for No. L.
Much preaching goes over the heads
of the people. | don't pray to be 4
great preacher Their are enough OF
them already. | want to preach SO that
people will look in on themselves.
This is an age of veneer Furni-
ture is veneered buildings are We
neered, characters are veneered. There
is too much veneersd religion; not
enough looking inward, not enough re-
ligion where Jesus Christ works from
the inside out, and transforms the
whole being. There are too many chris
tians who look pious on Sunday ana
who haven't enough religion TO cover
a thumb nail on Monday.
There is too much humbug religion.
You take little Baptism, d little Meth
odism, a little Univer salism, d little
Christian Scienceism, a little Higher
Criticism, and few other isms,' then
mix in some booze, some cards. some
dancing, and some devil, and you have
humbug religion.
I'VE have too much head-opinion and
not enough heart-life. When Jesus
Christ gets into the heart, you will
want to let this old sin cursed, hell
bound world know about Him. Pray
David's prayer and let God search
you"

Value Of Meetings at Shows.
In connection with its annual show
each association should hold some form
of meeting; call it poultry institute

a nature calculated to create greater
interest in the culture of standardized
poultry and to advance the standing
and increase the influence of assCcia-
lions in all departments of their work.
Such meetings could be made deed
eddy interesting and instructive and OF
real benefit to the industry. At Il meet

more particularly in fancy poultry, sub

Association AS An Educator.
For an evening meeting, where but
one subject might be taken up, there
might be two regular speakers to pre-
sent the subject and then throw II open
for general discussion. But the ar
rangement of an evenings work could
be made according to circumstances

would be it's own best judge as to the

it's particular locality. But 1t would he
