down under the prevailing conditions as understood by mining men in Ari- Zona would be a grieYous error.
 Among the Big Producers
 While compelled to give the great part of their attention to production, the big mines of the state have with out exception striven in every possible way, and are keeping on at striving, to advance their ore reserves. To this end there have been some great en- terprises hastened underway and ev- cry available short cut taken to get to results. One of these enterprises will reYolutionize the Warren district from the operative standpoint, in that it will take it out of the class of direct smelling districts, where it has al ways been, and make it both a great direct smelting and a great milling camp. Incidentally the change will bring into availability, through the establishment of milling facilities, of possibly considerable bodies of low grade ore in and about the Warren district which have not before been possible of handling with profit. Mil lions of dollars now being expended in stripping Sacramento hill of over burden and preparing it for steam shovel mining of it's upwards of 12,000 900 tons of low grade ore and in erecting a great concentrator and other plants for the treatment of this ore, is one item among enormous ex- penditures being carried ahead in the state to the end of increasing reserves that will stand up to the finish of the war. no matter how long it may go, and that will be available after the war to aid the nation in holding for ward for the new and greater share in world commerce which it must have under the order of vastly changed commercial and industrial i conditions which the end of the war will bring about.
 Another Great Enterprise
 [ In the north, United Verde has seized upon the steam shovel to make quickly available a great tonnage of direct smelting ore. To handle this ore Verde shelter capacity is being lifted several notches and by the time i deliveries from the steam shovel can be made it will be ready to handle | the product. Also there is a large amount of money being put into lift i ing the railroad from Clarkdale to as- sist with the steam shovel hill work. Meantime both United Verde and Verde Extension are eXerung them selves to the fullest possible extent to make openings into greater ore re- serves underground and have had some splendid success. United Verde 1 shelter has been pushed steadily higher each month and unless labor shortage grips the plant it will con tinue gain through the remaining months of the year. United Verde FIX tension shelter, designed by A G. Me Gregor and representing the very last word in efficient shelter construction and equipment anywhere in the world has been the show place of the state for visiting smeltermen and mining men since it's cohpletion a few months ago. It is now in splendid run ming order so far as made ready for operation and is delivering high re suits. This shelter by the end of the year will be giving output that will add very highly to the liberal esteem | in which Extension is now held.
 New Cornelia Extending Itself
 The Calumet & Arizona division among Arizona mining enterprises has splendid credit due because ot the successful endeavor it has waged against odds of labor shortage and ot
 tendant setbacks. In the Warren dis trict it has kept the ore going out
 and at the same time has managed to crowd rapidly into more promising areas of it's country with exploration
 On the Junction 1900 level this wovt
 gives some very high promise over Go
 ward the Denn line and where there
 is the likelihood of a great new orc
