 To help out cattlemen and assist with keeping home supply of meat for the mining districts. the Arisona Chapter A. M. c. took up with the Indian department the matter of per hitting cattle to graze on Indian lands, with the result that the h. dian department has written that cat tlemen shall see Indian lands super intendents and get leases or permits to put cattle on. This reverses the previous attitude of the Indian depart ment and if carried out will save many thousands of cattle from starv- ing.

 Many eastern promoters and stack brokers of doubtful character, to- gether with same reliable interests are preparing for silver mining acti- vities. It is endicated that the next few months will see the country flood ed with wildcat silver stocks, along with which there will be demand for legitimate silver prospects. Own CTS of the latter should be very care full in making associations. Inquiries of reputable New York and Boston banks or brokers of good standing on the New York stock exchange should be made as to the regulations of them prospectors to take over properties or offering investments.
 Oil stock boosting in the Chino val ley, near Jerome, is the present favor ite pastime of a number of promoters Oil is admittedly present in the forma- ton beneath this valley, but whether in commercial quantity remains to be proven. The advice of successful in- vestors in mining stocks that it is cheaper to buy the stock of proven mine at $5 than of a prospect at D cents, holds equally good with oil.
 Copper production of Arizona this year vii be 75O,OOO,OOO pounds, mainly due to the installation last year and this of about s5O,OOO,O worth of new equipment in mines, mills and smelt- CTS, enabling more saving of values and general speeding up. Unless la- Dor differences, fixing of too low metal prices by the government or the levy ing of expensive taxes, should inter fere, next years output will be near a billion pounds. On the 1916 produc- tion, less than this years by 100,000.- | 900 pounds, the mines of the state paid 5S per cent of all of Arizona's taxes. On a billion pounds output at
 fair prices the mines should probab- l ly pay upwards of 75 per cent of all the taxes.
