The strike on the s0O-foot level
gives values of SS46.4O on vein
which is - feet wide. The vein ap-
psrently runs east and west. At the
150-foOt level the vein showing Sss
per cent copper runs northeast and

CALUMET And HECLA
COSTS MOUNT HIGH
DURING few MONTHS

When Calumet & Hecla sets before
its stockholders its record Of 1917 it
win .be found that the i.ern OF costs
has jumped sSyward. due. Of course. to
the tremendous increases in payments
for wages. coal. powder. steel. lumber.
etc.
A concrete instance may be cited.
The higher cost Of coal to the Calumet
and its subsidiary properties VIII
amount in 1917 to at least Sl.00.Oo0.
or per cent per pound Of copper on
the 15O.O0O.OO0 pounds annually pro-
duced by these companies. On top OF
this the coal was Of much poorer quail
ity.
Calumet & Hecla's costs of prOduc-
ing copper in 1917 viii be found 70
have been not far from Il cents per
pound. or over 5 cents per pound
greater than the cost OF 1916. OF
course in the expense account every
item of REPRESENTATION. local
taxes. etc. are included. In 1915 the
cost was SIS cents: in 1915 Il was
l1.SS cents. the production in each
year being Tl.000.O00 pounds.
In the single department OF smelt-
ing. the 1917 cost viii be found 10
have been double that OF the preced-
ing year. Then again on such Of its
product as was sold on delivered
Europe basis there was an enormous
expense incident TO the higher ocean
freight rates. war and marine inSur-
ance. etc.
On top OF all this. the company must
pay a heavy excess profits tax 10 the
United States government. Just how
much this viii be cannot be stated
definitely. as it is not known by any
Of the mining companies what methods
will be used in calculating invested
capital and allowances for depletion
OF ore.
The company has practically COM
pleted its negotiations with the Min
eral Separation company. although
formal contracts have not vet been
signed on behalf Of the Calumet an
the White Pine companies. This pro
cess will be used by these two com
panies primarily upon the shines
waste water. which after fiOwing over
the mill tables holds in suspension a
very considerable amount OF fine cop
per which cannot be recovered by any
other method. Calumet hopes TO Sc
cure s.oo0.0 pounds OF copper per
annum by means Of this process.
The company is making steady prog
ress in the matter Of recovering cop
per from its huge pile OF submerged
tSilingS at Torch Lake. In 1916 -
AZ 600 pounds were reclaimed. and
in the year 1917 it is expected that
close to 1o.0oo.00O pounds viii have
been recovered.

To determine relative position of va

necessary to know parity of foreign
