Copper Profits And Wages

authors have modesty obscuTed their identity It has
about It of board Of trade literature Possibly
issued by the Douglas chamber Of commerce and
mines the Warren district chamber Of commerce
At any rate 1t contains some informative reading
There is leaflet insert which says the population
Bbee 10000 and that of Douglas 15OOo that the Copper
Queens earnings last year S24030e05 and that the
Calumet & Arizona in 1916 paid dividends of $3.50 947
while the ShattucB-ArizOna paid 600 dividends.
1t says ArizOna's metal output IN 1916 had value Of
SOS 600 600; that 10000 employed mines and
reduction works and that their pay is 100000 year
The booklet also says the United States Geological survey
expects Arizona to produce 1OOOOO0O0O pounds Of copper
this year more than three times the output Montana
four much Of the production Of Michigan and
Utah last yesI.
All that array OF figures furnishes added weight the

TIMELY POULTRY HINTS.


1t is not only possible, but desirable,
to pick out the high producing hens In
the flock by means of external charac-
teristics.
Hens that mott late are high pro-
ducers, because they have longer pc
Rod In which TO lay. Late noting Is
the accompaniment OF late laying, but
the mere fact Of late noting does not
make high producers, The hens that
mott late begin laying as early as the
early molters. because they mott much
more rapidly and lose less time
In the yellow skinned breeds the
paleness OF shank is very reliable
indication In the fall at the end Of the
first year. The high producers lay the
color out Of their shanks, and so any
bird that still has yellow shnnks after
year of laying likely has been poor
producer for that year.
Those birds with soft and pliable
combs about Oct. | are In general bet
ter producers than those with hard and
dried up combs As bird molts the
comb tends TO shrink and become
hard. but birds In good condition and
laying have pllable combs Kansas
