Discovered By Engineer

The United Verde Extension mine, which opened the district to the world, was dis covered by J. J. Fisher civil and mining en- gineer. He located fraction of the Little Daisy. Associated with Fisher was L. F.. Whicher of New York, broker and promoter. These men purchased four other claims ad joining the Little Daisy Group from George Hull The United Verde Extension company was organized It sunk the Old Daisy shaft to depth of 800 feet. Although considerable drifting and cross-cutting was done no com mercial ore was encountered.
 The company operated off and on, at times being entirely out of funds. The mine was operating at the time of the death of Fisher i'll 1911 He had at times been assisted financial lv by A. J. Pickrel of Prescott, who received stock in return He attempted to interest other substantial men in the prospect. In 1912 he succeeded in attracting the attention of James S. Douglas. The Dougas-Tener syndicate took over the United Verde EXten- sion, purchasing a block of stock and taking an option on the remainder, short time after ward exercising their option.

The recent mining boom at Jerome Yava- pal county, was due largely to strike on the United Verde Extension, a strike which led to the discovery of one of the greatest ore bodies in Arizona. The discovery came as result of faith and courage. The property was turned down time and again by engineers and geolo gists. Four years ago it was not even consd cred a prospect in the strict sense of the word. Today that erstwhile ''wildcat" is pro- ducing over 100000 pounds of copper month, which figured at market price is worth $1200,000 This amount will be doubled when proposed equipment is installed.
 The property consists of forty claims But all the ore mined to date has been taken from only one of these, leaving thirty-nine u1l- touched for future exploitation. The extent of the ore body is as yet undetermined how ever, it being the assurance of the owners of the mine that this ore body is extensive.
 In 1914 rich body of chalcOcite ore was first encountered, in cross-cut from the 1900 level of the Edith shaft on one of the original five claims. The ore had to be packed by buTros to the old United Verde shelter at Jerome At one time there was as many as 120 burros on the trail doing this work Six thousand feet of tramway now connects the mine with the railroad. This improvement was made within the past few months.

Developments in 1916

August, 1916, shows the ore body on the 1400foot level to be 200 feet wide and 300 feet long, with an average content of 10 per cent copper. A raise being driven to connect with the 1200-foot level is up to 103 feet and shows an average of 14 per cent copper. A twentv-foOt winze sunk from the 1400-foot level. to be deepened to 1900 feet, shows an average of II per cent copper, proving the downward extension to much greater depth. The development to date makes the mine as great a one as its more famous nameSake
 ''The original development was by an S00- foot vertical shaft, the Edith on the Little Daisy claim, about TOO feet from the main shaft of the United Verde mine, with collar 45O feet lower This shaft after passing through fifty feet of iron stains encountered copper carbonates, continuing or depth of about 150 feet. succeeded by conglomerate, and from depth of 425 feet to 57o feet passed through schist carrying copper sulphides and manganese. These old workings total about 5000 feet, but develop only little ore of about two per cent copper. one ounce silver and S3 III gOlu OH tue OUO-lOOI IeNel. A lOU-lOOl WinZe below this level was bottomed in decOm- posed schist showing considerable copper.
 ''The development from October 10, 1914, to January 1, 1916, includes 464 feet of drifts and crosscuts on the S00-foot level; 2499 feet on the 1100-foot level; 1900 feet on the 1400- foot level, in company ground. Beside this 2l97 feet Jerome Verde work. in that com pany's tract
 ''The ore thus far developed lies on the northerly down thrown side of big fault, with a drop of $50 feet or whereabouts, as shown by the limestone strata on each side of it. Ore reserves estimated about July l. 1916, gave 100000 tons of ten per cent ore blocked out.

Site for Shelter

A 12O-acre ranch, formerly owned by. Clar cnce Hopkins, was purchased for the purpose of obtaining water supply The property is situated seven miles from Jerome and two and one-half miles from Clarkdale It has three artesian wells. It is reported that the Discus ranch, another purchase of Mr. Douglas, will be the site for the United Verde Extension shelter.
 A sketch in the Mines Handbook by Walter Harvey Weed recounts the following concern ing the United Verde Extension:
 'The company was incorporated in 1902 in Naine as reconstruction of the United Verde Extension Gold, Silver and Copper Manufacturing company. It was capitalized for $3,O00,000, shares at $10 a shaxe par and again reorganzed in 1912 and the capitaliza- tion reduced to $750000, shares 50 cents par. In this reorganization approximately 36O,OoO shares were set aside, on share for share basis, for the old shares outstanding; about 10000 shares were issued in liquidation of debts; 10000 shares were issued to James s. Douglas for services; 50,000 shares were sold to Mr. Douglas for $25,000 cash 100000 shares were optioned to MT. Douglas and as sociates with the right to purchase all or part

Mine UnWatered

The new owners unWatered the mine re- opened the old workings and that summer started to sink the Edith shaft The shaft went to 1900 feet, with considerable drifting and cross-cutting. The rich ore body was finally encountered
 The company, which has more individual stockholders in Arizona than any other pro- ducing company, pays dividend every three months amounting to 90 cents share Aside from dividends the company is holding in re- serve sums for further development work, equipment and for the construction of smelter. The company is making improve ments on the surface all the time An office building and hospital are among the improve ments The general office will be 1SX40 feet. On the ground floor there will be three pri- vate offices fifteen feet square, change room, assay office, timekeepers' office and large space to be used as rest room for employees.

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

Auction! Auction! Would you rather
be an actor or an auctioneer. The two
sound so different and yet each is pro-
fess.on in the following of which man
may display his own individuality may
ccme in touch with various phases of hui
man character and may and does endeav-
or to please and to serve his fellowman.
Everyone knows good show is not
handed out, complete, at moments
notice. Thotfulness and attention to de-
tail are what make it a good show.
The Auction Business is complex of
detail. One sees a red flag in front of
building, crowd within, one hears a
man selling, but does that comprise the
Auction? No.
A glance behind the scenes and one
finds that Ike the show there has been
much careful attention given to the de-
tails The stock whatever it is, from
shoes to machinery, has had to be ap
praised; it must be sorted and arranged
for sale; then it is advertised and then to
the sale the general public may come
free of charge, and after the sale comes
the packing, the checking, oftimes the
shipping of goods for the buyers.
AS interesting as any play in theatre,
is the auction business and in this light
did it appeal to young actor, violin
player He saw the vision which enabled
him to see the interesting possibilities,
the human interest side of the auction
business, he comprehended it's wide
scope of opportunity, and so leaving his
company he went to work for Michael
Tauber -
Being very young man, Michael Tau
Der decided that this young actor should
begin at the very beginning to learn the
business. The hands that so softly car
resed the violin now did diligent work
with the broom, but while he swept floors
his thots scared, and one day he was al
lowed to help arrange a stock, then he
asked to be allowed to buy stocks and
then came the desire, the ambition to sell
stocks. 1--WE think in secret and it
comes to pass" and so there came day
when Michael Tauber was called out of
town and a big sale was to be made.
Could the young actor make it? To him
this was real play, the auction cart
real stage. There was the same appeal
to make to the people. Here was op-
portunity. The instinct of the actor
sprang to his assistance; the sale was
we'll made He made other sales, To the
work he gave his personality, his own
individuality and one day Mr.. Tauber
herring him make a large and success
full sale, smiled and said, "Dick Richards,
the actor, has become Richard Levy, the
auctioneer." t@t
Mr.. Richard Levy will personally con-
duct the sale of the w. H. Sill Grocery
Co., to which everyone is cordially invited.

WILL ENROLL WOMEA
FOR FOOD CAMPAIGN
Hoover Starts Preliminary Machin-
cry for Great Work for Nations
Good.

washington, June 1S.-Preliminary
work of organizing the countrys 5
housewives into great food conser-
vation army was started tocay Dy her
bert c. Hoover. The task Of enrolling
them as actual members of the food
administration is undertaken at the
direction of President Wilson without
awaiting the action of congress on the
administration food bills.
Actual registration of the women
will not begin until July l, but Mr..
Hoover now is organizing his staff to
carry out the work. Operation Of the
plan will be in the hands Of four main
divisions-an advisory council of Wo-
men. an advisory council of household
economy experts, committee on VOL
untary service, and the women's Sec
ton of the council of national defense
and State defense councils.
Actual administration will be along
five lines-domestic science instruc-
ton. publicity, supervision of member
shin. development Of State relations,
and cooperation of organizations.
Mayor Mitchell of New York tele-
graphed Mr.. Hoover today that the
city government would cooperate with
the food administration in every way
possible.
"The wise and frugal use of our
food supply" said Mayor Mitchell, lis
an obvious necessity which has been
pressed upon our attention in New
York in advance of desirable national
legislation.
Motion pictures will be used, Mr..
Hoover announced today, to teach
food conversation measures and the
elimination of food waste.
Mr.. Hoover announced plans today
for enlisting the aid of the countrys
summer schools in teaching household
economics. A comprehensive course
in home conservation of food will be
prepared by a committee or agT;cultur-
al department experts and officials o.
the bureau of education for presenta-
ton to the schools.
Through the schools Mr.. hoover e1-
poets to reach some 100000 teachers,
who will return in the fall to about
125,00O communities Later the plan
contemplates the teaching of food con-
servation in every public school in the
nation and in most of the colleges.
Organization of trades that deal
with food distribution will be under
taken as soon as the food admins
tration is formed.

TIE PROBLEM OF
SCAMP MONROE
State Supposed to Keep Up Mobiliza-
ton Camps, But Law Admins
traii0n Has Lett State With
out q Cent.

Columbia. June 13 Adjutanr
General William w. Moore returned to
his Office this morning from Charles
ton where he has been in onsulta-
ton With officials of the department
OF the southeast in regard to increased
accommodations which it is desired
to provide at Camp Moore. the state
mobilization camp. for the reception
of the First and Second regiments Of
famuy and other South Carolina
troops, Adjutant General Moore said
that the plans would probably have
to be submitted to the War Depart
ment
The general military plans conlem-
plate that the states shall furnish and
properly keep up the state moDlllza-
ton camps, but South Carolina is
ir the position at this time of not
having a cent with which to do the
work. The camp was originally pre-
pared as a regimental camp ground
and later, when the two regiments weer
modified there, accommodations were
only necessary for about $500 men, at
that time the strength of the two or
CARNATIONS. Now, however, accom-
modations for about 4,500 are needed,
if both regiments are to be encamped
at the same time and the adjutant
generals Office has requested the aid
of the department of the southeast in
this regard.
One of the main troubles is lack :ol
sufficient water supply for 4,500 men,
and additional wells and another
pump are needed. It is estimated that
the present pump working continu-
ously could supply the necessary
quantity of water. but in case of a
temporary disarrangement of the me-
chinery the water supply would run
short. Additional kitchens and mess
houses and >ther accommodations are
also necessary.
Adjutant General Moore said this
morning that there should be no diff
Guilty in taking care Of the First reg
iment with the present accommoda-
tions, and that. at all events, m case
of absolute necessity, the cwo regi-
ments could be taken care of. but he
was hopeful OF favorable action by
the War Department upon the request
for federal aid in properly preparing
the camp.
