TALKS ON ADVERTISING
by Nels Darling

Change your advertisements at
least every other issue OF the paper.
Don't wait until the last minute, but
decide days before Just what you are
going to especially bring to the at
tention of the buying public. Get
your copy to the newspaper two or
three days before the date of publ
cation, and il you are using daily
paper, give them several advertise
ments in advance so that the printer
will not be rushed and can give you
a good set-up.
a small advertisement run often
is more effective than a large one
run occasionally. II is we'll to use
a liberal amount of space, when you
can, but it is eternally keeping at
1t that does the business.

thought, you will soon begin to find
pleasure in writing your store news.
You will get real fun out of plan
ming the campaign and the work of
preparing the copy. You will also
enjoy watching and measuring the
results of your advertising.
Read the magazine advertising of
the big national advertisers and
catch some OF the spirit of real ad-
ycrtising The largest mercantile
establishments in the world have
been built up by advertising of the
careful, painstaking, stick-to-it type.
II you are using the same kind of
advertising in the newspaper that
you used ten years ago, or that 9TH
ers used at that period, you are be-
hind the times. You must talk to
your customers in a different way.
Give them straight-from-the-sh
der jabs, stir them. rouse them. tell
them something.
1t pays TO advertise II you know
how. II you don't know how-lcarn.
II is an important thing to know
how to advertise as 1t is to know
how to buy goods at the right prices,

time and at a good profit. Are you
one of the merchants who pay much
attention to buying. and little in get

Safety First McKeehan Re turns From Trip of Inves- tigation and Comments on Crying Demand For Hous- ing Facilities.

Miners in the colder countries are eager to come to AriZona-a great many of them desire to come regard less of climatic conditions. feeling that far greater opportunities exist for them and their families out here-but we will have to provide much more in the way of housing facilities be- fore they can be encouraged to follow out their desire in tne matter"
 Wallace E. McKeenan, head of the Copper Queen Safety First division, made the foregoing expression, as to findings on an eastern trip from which he has just returned. Mir. McKeehau visited a number of mining districts with an eye to the noting of matters of safety first interest. Eastern dis tricts, the Lake country and Mime sota and the Rocky mountain region mining districts came under his ob- servation. During his visits he talked with many miners.
 There would be no tr0uble about OuI AllLOHd HOphGllOH Ol AuihCiS' going into Colorado. Montana and Idaho alone and pretty near doubling continued Mir McKeehan. Married men are particularly anxious to come out. But when they ask as to accom- modations for their families, they must De told that we have not the houses to put them in.
 "I told many of those who asked me that this did not mean that we were not building and had not been building steadily. but that our needs by reason of expanding mining oper- ations and natural increase in popu- lation had been during the last half dozen years much in excess of ac commodations we were able to supply. They were surprised to learn that in the Warren district and the Jerome district the building of houses thIs year had been on the largest scale in the history of either district, Tn spite of high costs of all materials and labor. and that in every other dis trict in the state with the exception of the Clifton-Morenci district, there had been more house building this year than last year, with no over-con struction in any instance and the work crowding along at this time as fast As at any time in the year.
 Evidences of the draft are present in all of the mining country Operat- ing forces show it. and will show it still more There has been no way to replace this labor. and it not likely to be. The older men remaining on the jobs are working all the harder. There is no lack of appreciation among the metal miners of the need of the

MINING COMMUNITY KNOWS HOW ID MAKE
 MANY REDUCTIONS

POUGLAS, Ariz.. Nov. 3.-Smelting and mining centers' people are not only eager in desiring to assist the food savings movement, but they un- derstand how to get along with sub stitutes in food when occasion re. quires and are proud of the fact As much was demonstrated here and in Bisbee when reduced price was made this week on corn meal, along with declaration of the fact that govern. ment desired as much departure IS possible from the use of flour. The stores. inspired by patriotic motives, to cut down the corn meal price, were swamped by housewives no less pa triotic in buying motive.
 Stocks of corn meal in both Bis bee and Douglas have been cut to
 the minimum, as the result of the rush, and new supplies have been tel egraphed for. Like movement in aid of conservation is reported from other mining centers in the state. In all of these, reports received by resident members of the state executive com mittee of the Food Administration tell of general signing of food pledge cards this week. Returns from all districts in Cochise county indicate that everybody is signing the cards and that the results will be as big as in the Liberty loan campaign. which put Cochise county at the front in Arizona with a 2S0qt response to the call made by the government.

government that things be kept going as near top capacity as possible. IL is for this reason that a good many of these loyal Americans in the gold, lead, silver and zinc camps are par ticularly desirous of coming to Ari- zona. They want to feel that they are helping get out the premier war metal copper. It is fine spirit.
 "To get top efficiency and do all that we are capable of, our biggest need, as l see it, at this time is more houses. If we can provide the latter. the miners will come with a rush from all over the country, and we will see our leasing, small mining and pros pecting and our general development of new areas advanced with greater rapidity than in any previous period. New blood always works that way. This achievement will be entirely ad- ditional to the greater activities which our big mines will be able to pursue in opening new resources upon their own properties and thereby increas- ing the output from the maximum that they are, have been equal to at any time in the past.
 AS for house investment in Ari- zona mining districts, there is no town realty opportunity of better class or more certainty of continued excellent returns anywhere in the country. Con- struction is not near so expensive as in the colder countries, taxes are no higher. income is as large and the
 uture longer and bigger"

Others who have been in the erosscut 50 feet above the 1900 at least 20 per cent. Rumors in cir culation that the average copper con

 One other copper. which has in the past few Gays lconclusively demon strated it's right to be chased as a mine is the Binghampton in the Mayer district. a strike of unusually rich ore being made a few days ago in the new workings on the 500 level There are now two ore shoots on the 500. about 300 feet apart. one of which is Is feet in width, the other already having been crosscut about g feet The latter shoot is supposed to be an extension of the big shoot recently in the raise from the 500 foot level, the shoot being some think like 45 feet iD width at the point at which it was cut.

The company is now sinking the shaft. It has been shipping from the Broken Promise some good ore and promises to enlarge the shipments as soon as adequate haulage facilities are obtainaDie. The Boreas.
 Two leases exist in this neighLor- l hood which have more than ordinary promise. One IS the Boreas and the other is the Night Hawk. Both of the leasing companies are owned by War Ten District people. The ground is Copper Queen.
 The Boreas people have sunk an in clined shaft. Vertically, the depth al ready reached is about one hundred feet. A drift was pushed north rem the shaft and a raise was started. In the drift rich strilgers of ore were en- countered. The leasers are continu- ing their explorations and have reach ed the forty level in the raise. They expect to sink winze off the same | level to determine the extent of the ore.
 Two hundred fec, farther to the north, a blowout can be seen on the surface. It is the object of the leas- CTS to drive to that point and explore the contact. It is very probable that the shaf. will be sunk another hundred feet and similar work prosecuted. .. Boreas has shipped car load of ere and will ship another very shortly.
 The Night Hawk
 The Night Hawk is one of the best equipped leases in this part of the country. The leasers have sunk their shaft to a depth of 3S0 feet and only couple of days ago, encountered some low grade oxide in the shaft. This is considered most favorable indica- 1 tion. The shaft will be sunk a short distance farther and then lateral de- velopment will be prosecuted. Hold CTS of Night Hawk leasing shares feel assured of developing a real piece of mining ground. Already the value of the shares has doubled

 Farther to the west another piece of importan. development work is being prosecuted with vigor. It consists of the Arizqna-Bisbee Copper Mining company. This company owns seven teen claims, situated between the Copper Queen Extension (Tle Old Bis bee Vest and the Red Mountains. The development work consists of a shaft seventy fee. deep, fully timbered in two compartments. The shaft is being sunk in the Escabrosa lime, the rock in the shaft is similar to that found in the Night Hawk at over a depth of 300 feet and leads the owners { to an optimistic view of their proper ty.
 Machinery is now being hauled to the property, all Of it being in the rail road yards at Don Luis. The shaft houses are complete; the gallows frame work ready for work. A water supply, of adequate proportions. has been developed from the Cowan spring, and once the machinery is turned over, rapid work is expected.
