MAPPING MINING !. {. SECTION OF COUNTY

The firm of Gibson, Gibson & Gib- son, operators and mining engineers, have force of men in the field ,pre- pairing maps of the mining section of tbe county. Their purpose is to tie up the various camps into one large map which will show the approximate trend of the various veins in the dis tricts and will give an idea of the enormous extent of the mineralized area of the county. They would have all mine owners who wish their mines entered on the plats to either send in data or give approximation to patent ed properties. The data wanted is the location and names of the claims, SO that they be correctly entered. / This firm aso is having a survey for tunnel right beginning below the Flores mine, at Cerbat, and driving northeast to4the summit of the Ger bat range, thence north to the vicinity of the Armour group, near the head of Bismarck Canyon. This project contempates bore about three miles and will gain perpendicular depth of about 2000 feet. Hundreds of veins will be cut and at great depths, which will make possible the extraction of ores at low cost. The project is one of immense potentialities,,

EQUIP RURAL MINE
 HfADFRAME HOIST

1, The new headframe for the Rural mine has been completed and will be in use as soon as the machinery can be gotten in. Some of the electric machinery has been received at King man and the balance will be here Mon day. This will be forwarded by train to Keystone siding, thence to the mine by truck. All foundations have been put ,in and little time will be lost ih the installing of the plant! As soon as the machinery is in commission sinking. will be resumed on the new perpendicular shaft and a depth of 800 feet attained as soon las possible. The work of unwatering the old Buck eye shaft is in progress and the mine is being cleared of debris and caves to allow of the opening up and extrac- tion of mill ores.
 The Buckeye is under the manage ment of w. w. Widdowson, consult ing engineer for M. B. Dudley and as- sociates.

REPAIRING COD. SHAFT
 WILL SOON BE (NWA1ERED

The new headframe is in place on the c. o. D. mine and new collar set put in, besides repairing the brok- en timbers in the shaft and catching up several caves. Within a few days the work of unwatering the shaft will be under way and sinking to the 300 leveY carried on. The distance to a connection with the 300 level is, un- derstood to be about 30 feet. When connection is made the water will be taken from that part of the mine and the property sampled with view to taking it over and operating it on a large scale. M. B. Dudley and asso- ciates have options on the c. o. D. interests and it is quite probable that they will acquire the property.
 George w. Schilling is >superintend- ing the operations on the mine and un- der his 'directionSt this work will be car ried on to a successful conclusion.

RICH GOLD STRIKE
 ON DA|Sf[L MINE

The winze that is being sunk from the drift at the bottom of the 90 foot shaft on the Daisell, has entered a seven foot bodysof< ore that gave such high assays in gold that resample was deemed necessary to convince the management that it was correct. The sample taken across seven, feet of vein was wonderfully rich in gold, higher than any assay ever taken from the property. 1'
 The winze is 15 feet below the level and is being driven to the 300 with a view to getting a line on the ore body. The old level on the 300 is off the ore and as soon as the present work is completed the mine will be opened on that level and connected up with the present work. The develop nent of the new ore body and it's promise of immense values as the ore shoot is entered is pleasing to the management, which has always be- lieved in the great value of the prop erty.

MINERAL PRODUCTION
 UNITED STATES 1919

The Department of the Interior has just issued a preliminary report onlthe mineral production of the, United States in 1918 for the purpose of mak- ing public as soon as possible the sta tistics collected by the U. s. Geolog- ical Survey for that year. The sta tistics given for most commodities are final; those for few are only esti- mates based on incomplete returns; but on the whole the report gives a fairly complete record of the mineral output of the country during the year.
 The total value of the minerals pro ducedi was about $5,526,162,00, more than half billion dollars in excess of the value recorded for 1917, but the total quantity produced was less. The output of fuel was greater than in 1917 though somewhat less anthracite coal was marketed. The increase in the quantity of coal marketed was about per cent, but the increase in value, due to higher, prices, was more than IT per cent. It is significant that though the increase in the quantity of petroleum marketed was only a little more than four per cent the in- crease in value was over 32 per cent.
 The value of the metals produced was about 8 per cent greater in 1918 than in 1917 The figures show that ! less iron ore and steel were produced, but here again values were higher. A little more pig iron was made, though the quantity shipped was less. Copper and zinc not only in them- selves but as the components of brass are perhaps next in importance to iron in the worlds industry today, and in 1918 they stood high on the list of war metals. A little more copper but less zinc was produced, and the values of both were lower, that of zinc falling about 25 per cent. The out put of war metals, manganese and chromite, used in hardening steel, was greater than in any preceding year. Chromite increased 88 per cent in quantity and 225 per cent in value over 1917, and the increases in manga nese ore were 136 and 100 per cent, respectively. Less gold and silver were mined than for many years. Though the price of silver rose from 81 cents an ounce in 1917 nearly to 97 cents in 1918, the increase was not enough to cover the increased cost of mining. ',''l.n-" .'~'r-' rti>i~ - The output of building material clay products, building stone, cement, lime, gypsum showed great de- cline. ~ -
 The domestic production of potash in 1918 was 54,000 tons, an increase of 68 per cent over the output in. 1917

MINES AND OIL WELLS ll
 MAINTAIN RAILROADS

St. Louis, Sept N10-During the past five years the mines and oil wells of the United States have furnished ex- Iactly 5S per cent of the tonnage or iginating on United States Railroads. The producers of the basic mineral wealth of the country employ .approxi7 mately 1,50OO00 men. This is largely skilled labor. These facts furnish a basis for the interest aroused among mining men in the grave problems confronting the Nation, involving transportation, wages and present low percentages in production. The rec ognized danger of con kinued industrial conferences, sporadic in character, during the National crisis has brought warning from the mining men and has resulted, in calling a general min ing and industrial convention in this city during the week of November 17, where all conflicting interests can get together for the purpose of consider ing a concrete business program to be placed before the Congress of the Uni ted States, backed by the, Nations leading industries.
 Already, the American Mining Con gress, which has called the conven- ton as a feature of it's 22nd annual meeting, is at work upon the most comprehensive plans yet devised for a meeting of this character. There will be frank and open discussion of labors plan to nationalize industry and the effect of labor control of railroads and coal mines upon all na- tional activities will be shown. The relation of mining to industrial pros perity and the close connection be- tween the present low per-man pro 'duction and the extraordinary cost of all commodities will be discussed. There will be national conferences of gold and silver producers, coal opera tors, oil shaiei and petroleum men, state geologists and economists, with special programs for each. War min eral producers and those interested in tariff for American mineral and chem ical products are being called together and advocates and opponents of Blue Sky Laws, leasing bills and conserva- tion will hold special, conferences. The invitations are signed by Gov ernor Frederick D. Gardner, of Mis- souri, by tBulkeley Wells Of Denver, President of the American Mining Congress, by Mayor Henry w. Kiel of
 St. Louis and, the combined eommer- cial bodies of this city. }

WORK TO BE RESUMED AT ARIZONA M0SSBACK

The contractors who have been do- ing the cross-cutting at the 700 foot level of the Arizona Mossback Mine are seeking a crewto renew their work at this noted property, which work has been suspended on account of the miners strike three weeks ago. Now, that conditions are becoming better and miners are coming in from other districts it is expected that the Mossback contractors will have their crews at work within a week, and this valuable property will' again Re underway as heretofore. As soon as the crosscut at the 700 foot level is completed, it is expected work will De immediately begun upon the $40O,- 900 mill which has been voted by the Stockholders of the company.

BLACKBERRY SHIPS CAR CONCENTRATES TODAY
 ANOTHER NEXT WEEK

A carload of concentrates was ship ped out from the Blackberry mill this morning to the Selby shelter and an other will go forward early in the week. The company has been hamp- cred by the lack of cars and the con centrates have been accumulating in the bunkers at the mill and railroad station until everything was full. As the mill is turning. out big tonnage of concentrates daily the shipments will be largely increased. Tie mill is recovering better than s5 per cent of the values and it is expected that this high recovery will be increased.
 On the 700 the stopes show better than nine feet in width of exception ally fine ore and the whole property is showing better and better ore bodies as the drifts and stopes are extended.

CRIPPLE CREEK MEN
 X SAMPLE GOLD CHAIN

Engineers of the Portland Mining company, of Cripple Creek, Colorado, have just completed the examination of the, Gold Chain mines, situated some distance east of the Catherine, west of Union Pass The claims are owned by Al Ruffles and John L. Munds and are said to be among the best prospects in that part fof the Blue, Ridge range. Messrs. Ruffles and ,Munds have done considerable work on the properties, but it is prob able that the Portland people will have to equip the property and do a, large amount of work to get line on the possibilities of the property. The vein is immense and the surface showing would indicate wonderful ore possibilities. ..

SILVER SHOWING GOOD
 ON 300 LEVEL OF RICO

The drift on the 300 level of the Rico mine is being driven into the ore body with great rapidity. To the east of the shaft the ore body shows a considerable widening from the vein above and the values are also in- creasing. Some excellent silver, both native and ruby, is appearing in the ore and the impression is that the drift is just coming into a rich body of that material. The vein shows the full width of the drift and how much wider crosscut will have to disclose. In the opinion of the writer the ore body will be found far better at great CT depth, there still being apprecia- ble teaching throughout the ore body.

HIGH GRADE RUBY
 SILVER OPENED IN
 j THE WASHINGTON

The winze that is being sunk from the floor of the lower tunnel on the Arizona Washington mine, at Mineral Park, has entered exceptional high grade ruby silver. Specimens from the new ore body are very beautiful and reminds us of the ores taken from the properties of the Wallapai district in the old days. The mine has been opening up splendidly under the direc- ton of F. E. G. Berry. Just how ex- tensiVe is the new strike in the prop erty we are unable to state, but it is believed to be of considerable impor- tance.

GOLDEN STAR WILL BE oPER-
 ATEQ

w. w. Widdowson informs us that as soon as he returns from New York which will be in about two weeks, a force of men will be put on the Col den Star to- unwater the property and begin active sinking. The Golden Star is one of the oldest producers in the Mineral Park section and sent out to Wales and the smelters of this country many thousands of dollars worth of rich silver' ores. That the mine still is capable of production future development will disclose.

ORE BODY WIDENING
 GATES AJAR TUNNEL

Norman Bigler, general manager of the Gates Ajar Mining Company, came in from the property in May nard district yesterday and brought with him samples of ore from the tun- mel that appears to be quite rich. The ore body has increased from feather edgelto two feet and is growing wid- CT and wider as depth is gained. The drift is now in 270 feet and is under the shoot from which rich ore was taken. The rake of the shoot is to the north and it is expected that the further in the ore shoot. the tunnel reaches the larger will be found the vein. The company purposes driving the drift as far as possible to ascer- tain the extent of the ore body. The present perpendicular depth is esti- mated at 200 feet. Y. 'H

BIG STRIKE ON
 HOME PAST|ME

The Home Pastime mine at Mineral Park has brought forth one of the most important strikes of the year. The management in clearing the water from the 80, foot level and the muck from the drifts and have found that cave on the level about 20 feet east of the shaft shows a body of ore bet ter than feet wide that will aver age over 40 ounces silver and some gold, while streak running from 12 toI IS inches gave returns of from 100 to 204 ounces in silver. The entire vein will average high enough to pay to ship without asserting, although thei management intends to extract the high grade and leave the lower grade material for future milling stuff. In the high grade part of the vein kidneys of immensely rich mater ial is found and the impression is that with greater depth more, important vein of ore will be opened.
 The Home Pastime was known as the Rattlesnake in the early days of Mineral Park camp and produced con siderable high grade ore. Later it became the property of J. w.. Prisk and Robert Meara, MT. Prisk taking over the Meara interest. During the ownership of MT. Prisk the mine has produced large tonnage of rich sill yer ore, and it would appear that the mine has only been scratched. The present management intends to open the property to greater depth and we believe one of the most important mines in the Mineral Park basin will be developed. The property is well situated and its shoots are very ex- htensive. 'ys
