Jerome Verde Copper Co.

A mistaken impression relative to
the finances of the jerome Verde Cop
per company has been given to the
uniformed stockholders and the pub
lie in the statement issued as Of date
Of October /, 1918, which showed cash
balance totaling $35.089.59, against

NE foregoing amount left in the treas
Try at the present date.
Ore shipments continue from the
MaintOp ore body at the rate of 500
tons per month. The average copper
content is a little over s per cent
They are now finishing extraction
from the sixth and seventh floors of
the Slope on the 900 level and are
starting on the Sth floor. 1t is esti
mated that the returns from shipments
viii nearly meet operating expenses
at the mine.
Development work for some time
has been concentrated in the Maintop
country. On the 1000 level, a crosscut
was run from the station in the incline
raise connecting the 900 and LOO
levels. This heading was advanced
so feet. from which point some dia-
mond drill was prosecuted. Directly
underneath the ore body an upper
drill hole was driven to within ten
feet of the 800 level and exposed some
low grade ore. Four flat holes were
also drilled in the same sheared zone
in which the ore Occure on the 800 level
and showed some pyrite. A raise was
also run some % feet to prospect the
formation cut by the upper drill hole,
and will be continued at a later date.
on the LOO level, a drift, running
north o degrees west has recently been
started. This heading is known as the
1,100-24 and was started about 200
feet north of the incline raise. 1t has
advanced about 100 feet and exposes a
fine diorite schist and quartz-por
phyry contact, also showing the same
sheared zone as the ore body above

A vertical diamond drill bore is now
being run on the LOO level Just north
of the raise and will cut the sheared
zone at a depth of about $50 feet below
the set-up. Two incline holes have
been driven from the same point, both
cutting the sheared zone The first
hole exposed some pyrite, while the

Dundee Arizona

Director F. c. Stephen and Consult
ing Engineer w e. Deity have been
recent visitors at Dundee Arizona,
and, after thoroughly inspecting the
property, decided upon a development
campaign which will have for its OBJ
jective the further opening up and
prospecting the carbonate deposits
near the surface of the property.
An old tunnel, which cuts the shaft
about 20 feet below the collar, will be
extended 100 feet or more toward the
northeast into a zone of fractured
limestone which has shown copper
carbonates.
The shaft has now shown a depth
of about $50 feet and is making so gal
Ions of water per minute. Two shifts
have been worked. but it is the inten-
ton to cut the force down TO one shift
in the shaft on account of pumping
costs and awaiting the completion of
the United Verde Extension haulage
tunnel, which is expected to drain
Dundee ground. This tunnel will run
quite close to the south side of the
property and at a depth of $50 feet
below the collar Of the Dundee shaft.

The shaft at this property is now
down to a depth of 434 feet, progress

Verde Combination
The deepening of the shaft at this
property is proceeding quite satisfac-
torily at the present time and an av-
erage of a little over five feet per day
is being made. The shaft, now down
about 40 feet below the 1850 level, is
in a very good looking blue schist the
formation on the south side being
heavily impregnated with chalcopyrite
and pyrite.
While it is possible that the shaft
may continue in ore for it's entire
distance to the 1900 level, it is more
probable that it will cut through the
mineralized sheared zone within the
next forty or fifty feet as the forma-
ton as exposed in the station and
workings on the 1880 Level dips at an
angle of about As degrees and toward

The ground is changing somewhat and
breaks well. The formation is a di-
orite- schist and some quartz, with an
occasional evidence of pyrite.
When the shaft reaches a depth of
500 feet "a crosscut will be run north
westerly to prospect the large ledge

pated that distance of some 200 feet

ton, the red metal predominating. At
a depth of so feet the main shaft cut
this ledge, although the values did not
obtain as nearer the surface. Then at
200 feet the crosscut at the bottom of
the shaft cut a wide ledge showing
some sulphides. everything pointing to
the fact that the latter is merely a

WAR FINANCE AND THE FARMER.

Let us begin by stating that we have
every possible regard for the interest
and Well-being Of the farmer, and are full
" aware that he is the backbone Of the
nation.
Briefly, let us analyze the present
prosperity of the farmer American
farm products in 1917 amounted to the
stupendous value of nineteen and one-half
six billion dollars over 1916, and of almost
nine billions over 1915.
Does this enormous increase in value
of the farm products of the country rep
resent a large increase in production?
Frankly, no. The actual output of the
farms has increased very little. The
value of that output has practically dou-
bled. SO that we witness the farmers OF
the country realizing twice as much for
their produce as they realized two years
ago. and that at only slight increase in
the cost of production.
Let us suppose that the German navy
ruled the lanes of the ocean. Let us sup
pose that the markets of England, of
France, of Italy and the neutral countries
of the north were closed to our exports,
what then? Would American wheat sell
at $500 per bushel? Would our cotton
bring soc per pound? Would all our 9TH
er farm products sell at proportionately
high prices? Experience of past years,
when these nations needed our wares
should convince us that but for the pres
ent old World conditions our products
would be almost a drug on the market.
What, then, is responsible for the TN
precedented prosperity of the farmer?
The armies and navies of the allied pow
ers. France, England, Italy have thrown
the wealth Of the entire nations into the
task of keeping the ocean lanes free
They have not hesitated to sacrifice
wherever sacrifice was called for to ac-
complish this task. During the past year
they have been ably seconded by our own
navy
Now, these armies and navies, and the
peoples of these allies who have given up
practically their all in the struggle,
MUST be sustained. Who should be first
to offer help in this task of sustenance?
Who but the man whose dollars have
doubled purely as result of the labors
and sacrifices of these fighting forces?
Mr.. Farmer of America now that the
Liberty Loan is launched, will you look
your duty in the face, and seeing it, will
you go to it?
Better feed the boys over there now
if we don't want to feed the Germans
