Mohave County miner., 1918-01-12
(By P. R. Milnes.)

PRESCOTT, Ariz., Jan. 1.-The importance of transportation facilities, especially wagon roads, in the develop ment of mines, is strikingly illustrated in the opening up of one of the richest mineralized belts in Yavapai county, following the building of a highway by the county into the Hillside district. There has been no question as to the richness of the ores or their abund- ance, but until couple of months ago, it was a practically hopeless task to essay development under the handi- cap of roads which were such only in name. At that time a group of Salt Lake men examined the field and de- clared their intention of entering it if accorded cooperation by the county. Yavapai realizes that it's one great in dustry is mining and money spent for its advancement is another step to- ward augmented prosperity. It was therefore not a difficult matter to con vince the supervisors that expendi ture of the peoples money in such cause was legitimate and would mean the working of many good properties which had been turned down. Accord ingly, road which will permit the use of auto trucks from the Hillside dis trict to Iron Springs station, a dis tance of over 25 miles, is now close to completion and the district is now teeming with activity of such a char acter as denotes that capital is awake to the opportunity offered it.
 Bradshaw Country Opened
 The plans of the county aside from the main routes of travel, contemplate the building of roads to tap the mining districts. With this end in view a road is now being built from Hooper into Grown King territory, thus open ing up communication between that heretofore isolated but rich gold and silver district with the rest of the county for the first time. The jour ney can now be made in auto at slow speed, but with the completion of the work there will be a veritable high way between Prescott and Crown King, which has already been closed to the outside world except by dizzy railroad ride.
 Another factor which will add ma terially to the development and pros perity of the Bradshaw section of Yavapai county is the introduction of electrical power, the Arizona Power

 THE DEVELOPMENT OF MINING

company now having under construc- tion a line to the De Soto camp. The poles are already in position as far as Crown King. The line will provide service for the Wildflower, War Eagle, Gladiator, Swastika, Spring Green, Lincoln, Gold King, Nelson, Crown King and other camps. The success of the Bradshaw Development com pany in solving a successful reduction process for the complex ores of the district has resulted in this improved method of operation and also in a gen eral revivification of the industry, a dozen old properties, it is said on good authority, now getting ready to re- sume in the next 60 days.
 To the man who contemplates in vestments in mines there is assurance that aid and cooperation will be ex- tended from official sources as the county's policy is that every mine adds to the wealth of the county and the money it expends in Tightening the cost of freighting ores to the railroad is sure to come back sooner or later in the form of assessable wealth.
 Big Ledge Mines Working
 The Big Ledge company since a shutdown last fall, owing mainly to labor troubles, is again operating its mines, the Butternut and the Henriet- ta, the combined force at both proper ties numbering about 66 men. The Henrietta has lately cut some very good ore which runs high in gold, in addition to its main content, copper. Exploration is also beginning to make headway at the Henrietta, which bears all the earmarks of making a good copper property. The date for the blowing in of the shelter at Mayer has not been officially announced, al though such action is expected to take place soon as all the machinery is in position and ready to set going. It is the intention of the company to do a custom business in addition to han ding the ores from its own mines.
 Only a Near Strike
 Reports of "big strike" at the Je- rome Copper company's property are greatly exaggerated, according to Su- perintendent J. G. Flynn. He admits, however, that the indications are splendid and he thinks that a little omre development work will disclose something of importance. The con- tact which was the objective of the long crosscut tunnel has been inter sected. The formation is very much altered, but still extremely hard. For the present, work is being concentrat- ed in the east drift, but the west drift is also to be pushed. Work has not halted in the tunnel, the face of which is now some $50 feet from the portal.

MEETING OF CATTLEMEN

The cattlemen of this vicinity are in receipt of invitations fro mthe city of Nogales requesting their attend ance at the annual meeting of the Arizona Cattle Growers association.
 Nogales is reported to be making big preparations for the entertainment fthe cattlemen. Owing to the need of close cooperation between the stock men of Arizona during these war times, it is predicted by the state of ficials of the cattlemen's association that the meeting this year will be more largely attended than any pre- viOus meeting.
 The convention will open on Ad- mission day, February IA, and will be in session on the 18th and 16th.
 Secretary of the Interior, Franklin K. Lane, has been invited to attend this meeting and other prominent men will be present.
 To stimulate attendance, the Asso- citation is to give away to the cattle man holding the right register mum Der, a valuable cowman's riding out fit. q
 Nogales has had some experience in the entertaining of conventions and its for hospitality is known all over the state.

ADVOCATES FOOD
 CONSERVATION

PHOENIX, Ariz., Jan. 11.-Recent European reports received at the of flee of Timothy A. Riordan, federal food administrator for Arizona, pre- sent a forceful argument for greater food conservation in America during the coming year, than ever before.
 Shortage of wheat in France is be- coming more and more alarming each week. NJ. Maurice Long, minister for general revictualling of France, indi- cated recently that a further reduc- eion of 20 per cent in the bread ra- tion would soon become imperative.
 The manufacture and consumption of pastry regarded as luxury will be entirely suppressed during 1918, ex- cept on Sunday and holidays.
 Denmark is now looking forward to reduction of wheat rations. Final figures for the cereal harvest show total of about 62,0OO,OOO bushels, which is 2O,OOO,OOO bushels less than in 1916 and about 10,O00,O00 less than was estimated in the summer, when the populace was put on bread rations. The authorities are already consider ing a further reduction in the allowed consumption.
 The food situation in Switzerland is rapidly falling to the danger line. A ration that is far below the con- sumption in many of the countries at war has already been ordered.
 Under the new regulation, the Swiss may have only a pound and half of sugar per person per month. The bread ration has been fixed at about half a pound a day, and the butter ration at one-fifth of pound a month
