 Was given. or as much ore in twelve | days as was a normal months output
 of the local mines and leasors
 Eighteen cars were shipped since

 Only few more carloads remain
 to be shipped. possibly four. contain
 ing large percentage of lead. which
 will go to the Fl Paso smei.er. and
 these are being hauled to the cars for shipment before the Fl Paso shelter announces closing.
 Supt J. II. Davis. Of the Bunker
 Hill Mines company. which owns
 large number of local leases, annOunc-
 ed that following the announcement Of the closing of the C. X A shelter. all local leasors have been advised to close pending the reopenng oS the
 Douglas smelters. The local office and boIks will be closed. although d number of leasors have announced their intention of continuing work. mostly development, all supplies will be cash purchases. Mr. Davis advice. however. he announced. is 70 suspend operations pending the resumption Of the shelter. since there is q possibili- v that leasors may pile up ore in tending 10 be treated at the present price Of silver and should the price drop through some unforeseen action. 1t would mean total loss to the opera tors. Believing that silver will re main al slo0 for long time to come. however. many leasors from the com pany and practically all independent lcasors will continue. il ic said
 While the Fl Paso sme ter has not yet announced it will clC se concen- sus oi opinion is that it 100 will fol. low suit of the other big companies. and it is expected closing will be announced by May 1st

 All leases beng operated from the will be allowed to stand to the present Iessees. said Mr. Davis, iai those who do close down will be their leases as if 1t had been from day to day. This means that present holders Of leases. if they do engage in other lines and wish to re- turn on resumption of activities. will ,e given preference.
 While the shelter closing will mean considerable blow to Tomb 'tone due to lack of reduction facili- -ies. II will not mean a complete cess .tion of work and it is figured that at east 75 per cent of the leasors will either on development work IT in the case of independent leasors, blocking out ore for future shipment

 The announcement from the office Of the general manager follows
 At a meeting of the board of di. rectors or the Calumet and Arizona
 Mining company, held al the office of the company at Warren on Monday. the decision was reached 10 temper arily close down it's shelter at Doug las and cease the production of cop. per.
 The power and boiler plants will be continued in operation and the crushing plants will be operated un- til the beds are filled Necessary re. pair work will be done at the smeIter.
 The present rate Of development work in the mine will be maintained and approximately l5.000 tons of ore per month will be mined and stock cd. The work Of concreting the June ton shaft and of completing the Campbell shaft will be continued. Ex- ploration work will be started in the old Cole No. shaft. This will el. able the company to continue ill em- ployment al the mines approximate y 575 men. and so retain as many or it's old faithful employees as pos. sible.
 The decision to suspend produc- tion of copper was taken with regret. and only after deliberate considera- ton compelled the conclusion that 20 other course could be followed un. der existing conditions
 When the armist,ce was signed November 1Ith. 1918. an agreement existed between the government and the copper producers. which TX d the price Of copper and prescribed working conditions. At the request o, the government. tt was agreed that production should be continued at the then current rate until the end 1f the year. After aJnuary 1st. 1919. t was asoertained that there was an accumulation of unsold copper to nearly billion pounds 1! i was also to"ad that large amounts 1f copper wera held by England. ] France and Italy and that Germany which prior to the war had been a | 'ery large buyer Of copper. was un- | lble to make any purchases. Pre- | luction was necessarily curtailed at hat time and wages temporarily re- luced. but as the domestic market 'evived. wages were increased in July of that year, This increased rage continued in effect until the irst Of January. 1921
 The export demand for copper in 9l9 was limited but large domes- ic consumption developed. and to- yards the end Of the year a good 'uying movement developed, both do- nestle and foreign. which carried nto the spring of 1920 and justified he expectation that business for the ear would show a satisfactory rate f consumption. The copper sold in lis spring movement covered deliy- ries during the large part of 1920. iew sales of copper in quantity how yer. did not materiaIize The early lonths of 1920 showed a very marx

 During the quarter four pruning demonstrations were given following Extension Schools and one demonstra tion orchard was established near Wilcox This will be conducted un der the cooperative supervision oi the University.
 Another feature of the work is the extensive activity of the County Agent in the grating of the Persian walnu, scions on the native black walnut stocks This is rather technical work. requiring the services of an expert IL appears that the County Agent will not have time to supply all of the de mands for this.
 Rodent Activities.
 In addition to the regular work be- ing done by the local representatives of the U. s. Biological Survey, the County Agent has co-operated in con ducting a rabbit drive, at which two hundred rabbits were slaughtered
 i request was received from the aviation field at Douglas for aid in ridding their flying field of prairie dogs and gophers, the mounds and runs of these animals causing the sur face to remain so uneven as to endan- ger the lives of the aviators on land ing. IL cooperation with the local representative of the U. .. Biological Survey plans were made for the cleaning mp of this field.
 LIVESTOCK:
 During the quarterly period Co. operative Livestock Marketing Asso- ciation was organized. One car of hogs has been sold to the Arizona Packing Company at Phoenix at two cents above local prices and another car was sold to packers at Globe. This netted the owners two and one-half cents above local prices. During the month of February also a second car was shipped to Globe at an increase of two ceuts over local prices. The plan followed in all three instances that groups Of hogs be fat tened by certain dates. As a result the car lots were remarkably uniform in size. weight and condition. consid ering the fact that they came from so many different farmers. It had been planned to market several cars of beef, but for some reason this is not reported Additional activities in marketing consisted Of the purchase of feed supplies, including four cars of corn, seven cars of hay, three cars of cottonseed cake, one car of maize and three cars of mired feed. all of which go to primary consumers. including dairymea near the larger towns. in addition large quantities of garden seeds. potatoes, sorghum and smaller field seeds were ordered by the Farm Bureau Association at very consider able savings to the growers. Another phase was an attempt to bring in a carload of manure from one of the Army camps to the truck gardeners in one of the farming, com l muriities. Other miscellaneous mar keting activities consist of locating turkey toms, hens and other breeding stock for farmers. also the placing of an incubator and other miscehane- ous farm utilities.

COMB SAGE TEA
 INTO CRAY HAIR
Darkens Beautifully and Restores
 Its Natural Color and A Lustrc at Once.

< Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea, with sulphur and alco- hol added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxurfant. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though. is troublesome. An easier way is to get the ready-to-use preparation i'm proved by the addition of other in gradients a large bottle, at little cost, at drug stores, known as "wyeths Sage and Sulphur Com- pound." thus avoiding lot of muss.
 While gray. faded hair is not sin full, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive ness. By darkening your hair with wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Con- pound. no one can tell, because 1t does it so naturally, so evenly. You must dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared. After another ap- plication or two your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy. soft and lluxufiant and you appear years younger. (Advertisement)
