MINING WRITER
 TELLS FACTS OF
 OLD TOMBSTONE
Past and Present of Old Silver Camp Commented Upon in Mining and Oil Bulletin of Willis
By CHARLES E. WILLIS

When Alfred Henry Lewis wrote the Wolfville tales. he had in mind not only the nightmare of the eastern tenderfoot. the home of the bad man, but also the great Mecca of the pio- neer, the prospector and adventurer, and Tombstone was the one frontier town for which thousands of people were headed. They came in those days in a spirit of mere adventure, or to seek their fortune, either from the earth or over the gaming tables. Whether Tombstone, in her so-call- ed "palmy days" was as bad as she was painted is neither here nor there. but be that as it may. Tombstone was some tough town"
 The Camps Early History
 The history of her discovery and the manner in which she got her name has been written so often that 1t need only be repeated here in it's briefest form.
 Tombstone was a silver claim. so named by it's locator, Ed Schieffelin, who located it in the late 70's. After the town of Richmond was abandoned. Tombstone was the cognomen given the new camp which has since been the theme of books, plays and lately of movie picture scenarios. Millions of dollars have been taken out of her various mines, and she prospered up to the time of the demonetiZation of silver. Then for years the camp was what in this day and age would be termed down and out" but along about 1900 Arizona's grand old man. Frank Murphy of Prescott, became in- terested in the district with E. B.. Gage, and with the assistance of their colleagues, Tombstone was again re- stored to its place on the map.
 Under the most adverse circum- stances these men tackled the un- watering of the district, and after about ten years, when success was within their grasp and the monster water flow was practically conquered, funds ran out, owing to matter or misunderstanding or treachery. The [ sudden collapse resulted in a com plete shutdown; the properties went into the hands of a trustee in bank ruptcy. and the work of ten years was undone in few months.
 Advent of Phelps Dodge Corporation
 The properties were operated under leases by the trustee. A. l.. Grow, and under his excellent management, the properties returned a nice sum above expenses. When they were sold to interests subsidiary to the great ] Phelps Dodge corporation. he not only turned the properties over free of debt. with a nice little financial bal ance for the new owners.
 When the Phelps Dodge interests became the owners of the practically 200 claims in the district they put new methods in effect, and Tomb stone took on a new life.
 There are in the district several ] independent operators. Tombstone is the county seat of Cochise county. !

ALUMINIUM PROSPECTS BRIGHT AT PRESENT
 IN THIS COUNTRY
UNITED STATES PROVIDES ONE. THIRD OF THE WORLDS PRE- WAR PRODUCTION THE I'M. PORTRAIT FACTORIES BEING RUN BY WATER AT NIAGARA

The annual production of aluminium before the war was about 6S,000 tons The important factories in the United States are the two at Niagara Falls with a capacity of 50,OOO h. p. and one at Messena of 100000 h. p. capacity. IT Canada there is a factory at Shawini gan Falls of 6O,OOO h. p. capacity These four factories all belong to the Aluminium Company of America. In France there are factories with an aggregate capacity of about 100000 h. D., viz, Societe Electrometallurgi que Francais with factories at La Pra1 and at Gardanes; and Compagnie des Produits Chemiques d'Alais, with fac tories at Calypso, at Felex and at St Jean de Maurienne
 The Swiss aluminium industry con trols factories with an aggregate ca pacity of 100000 h. D., viz, one al Neuhausen, Switzerland, one at Rhein felden, Germany, and one at Lend Gas tein, Austria. also Grippis Borgne They are all owned by the Swiss Alu inium Industrie Aktiengesellchaft.
 In the United Kingdom there are two works belonging to the British Alunimius company and one owned by the Aluminium corporation.
 The countries which have exported most aluminium are France and Switz erland, which two countries prior to the war each exported 1000 tons to Snnn H.r been the largest importer of alumin. ium. 16,OO0 tons in 1912 and 12,5OO tons in 1913. It is very difficult to obtain reliable information about the production of aluminium during the war; prices have risen abnormally and new factories have been started which have secured contracts extending over several years after the conclusion of peace
 Provided that the projected factor. ies are built and come into operation the production of aluminium after the war is likely to be about doubled, says Engineering" If the alumina factor ies can also double their output, an an nual production of some 150,00O tons of aluminium may then be reckoned upon. Of this aggregate 50 per cent is likely to be produced in the United States and Canada and 13 per cent ir Switzerland, Germany and Austria Hungary.
 The production in Germany. Austria and Hungary has of late been pushed ahead with much energy on account Oi the war requirements, and several fac tories are planned and probably ir course of construction in Bavaria CiT which the .Allegemeine Elektricitai !

Like the wise men of old. the group

If the alternative dishes now offered

CAN WITHOUT SUGAR
Cold Pack Method Well Adapted
For Putting Up Fruits
and Juices.
MAKE JELLY IN WINTER.

We have become so accustomed IA
the liberal use of sugar thai many OF
US have forgotten that vegetables
fruits and fruit juices may be put UT
for future use without necessarily us
ing any sugar except that which is
present in the vegetables or fruit it
self.
Although we may have twenty five
pounds at time for canning purposes
on the certificate plan. we will be do,
ing patriotic service by putting of
the jelly making and preserving until
the new crops come in. and more OF
our boats are launched which we can
send TO more distant parts for sugar
If we put up all of our fruits and fruit
juices by the cold pack method or the
open kettle method, not using sugar in
any way, we will have no difficulty
with the process. When we wish to
make preserves, jams, or jellies from
these canned fruits and juices we can
add the right amount of sugar and fin.
ish as needed for future consumption,
Sweetness Lost In CANNING.
Sugar used in putting up acid fruits
is changed by the acid into another
type of sugar which is less sweet. and
so we lose the sweetening strength in
cooking the sugar with the fruit in the
canning process.
The reason for making jelly as it is
needed is that with some fruit Juices
on long standing crystals are formed
in the jelly, When jelly is made few
days before being used, which II is
perfectly possible to do when the juice
is canned ana put away for winter use,
the jelly is fresher. sweeter and no
crystals will have formed There is
then practically no loss from spoilage
and fruit juice may be had also for
fiavoring, jelly making, VI sherbets as
needed.
Saves Labor and Storage Space.
The storage of fruit and fruit juices
Is more easily solved when they are
in quart Jars, and the labor is also less
IN the heat of summer. The saving of
fuel is greater, too, as in winter the
jelly can be made while there is a
constant fire in the kitchen range.
In summer canning limit the use OF
sugar until the canned products are
prepared for immediate use,

Wheat Not the Best Grain.

Habit has made us think that wheat
is necessity; but 1t Is really only a
luxury. Perhaps the housewives pride
in her Saturday baking Ia lessened
since wheat makes the incest, whitest
loaf, but she nourishes her family just
as well on bread made with other
grains. 1t has no more protein. min
eral salt. fat, nor fuel than the other
cereals. and as far as comparative
tests are concerned in animals, 1t Is
very far from the best one Since it is
easier to ship, we can let the Allies
have 1t without decreasing the nutrl-
tional value of our own diet.

Giving up wheat is a little
thing compared to the death
struggle in which our boys are
sharing.
Now is the hour of test for US
who remain at home. Wheat is
the test. We cannot make I'D
for the submarine losses nor re-
place the spent reserves, but if
we follow these suggestions of
the Wisconsin Food Administra-
ton, We can ship more, and
that will help greatly in cir
cumventing the starvation plans
of the Kaiser:
The strong should abstain
from wheat entirely
Retail purchases of flour
should be limited in quantity
and be accompanied by at least
equal weight of other cereals.
Public eating places should
serve not more than ounces of
wheat products. flour -wcluded,
to a guest at any one meal.
No wheat should be used in
manufacturing for anything but
food.
Bakers should keep within 20
per cent of flour formerly used;
threefourth pound loaves should
go as far as pound loaves usu-
ally do.
Changing our habits is none
too easy, but it is no easy task
to win our war.
