$460.OO0 DIVIDEND
 FROM KELLY MINES

A message from Randsberg con- tains the news that the Kelly mine, owned by the California-Rand Silver Inc, has paid it's regular thirteenth dividend of 2 per cent, aggregating $25,000. This makes total disbursed by this richest silver producing prop erty of this state of $460,60O in 13 months, for on January 3 of this year the mine paid an extra dividend of 10 per cent in addition to the regular 2 per cent monthly disbursement. ,
 The phenomenal character of the ore from this property may be gleaned from the fact that these dividends have been paid out of the proceeds of shipments of less than one railroad car per day during the past 13 months and that all the ores thus shipped have been extracted from above the 300- foot level and shipped to the Selby shelter at Port Costa.

 GOLD WILL START
 DEVELOPMENT SOON

Ed Hammerbeck, general manager of the Kingman Silver-Gold Mining company, is in town from the com pany's property at Cedar. He reports that he is getting machinery in shape for the development of the mines and will soon have matters lined up for an intensive campaign. The proper ties are among the old producers of the Cedar Valley district, having sent a large tonnage of ore to the mills and smelters in the days when silver was one of the precious metals and before the sharks of old England laid down their gas barrage against it.
 Examination of the property has disclosed the fact that there is still a large amount of excellent ore in it and that further exploration should bring to light splendid ore bodies. The miners of the district who know the mines like a book feel certain that large producer will soon be opened. MT. Hammerbeck is one of the most aggressive mining men in the county and is sure to get results.

SHAFT OF BLACKBERRY
 COMBINATION 40 Fl.

S. D. Martin was in Kingman day or two this week looking after bus mess affairs. He reports that the new shaft on the Blackberry Combina- tion has reached a depth of 40 feet and that it is being driven as fast as men and machines can do the work. The company is well financed and the shaft is to be carried to depth of 800 feet, drifts being carried off at intervals of 100 feet apart.
 The Combination has been equipped with a good gas hoist, compressor and other machinery, and the shaft has been put in shape to allow of the work being carried to any depth. It is being carried down as a two-com- partment, it being the impression that the development of the ore might bring on a condition that would com- pei the sinking of another working shaft later on. A road has been built into the mine from the main highway, over which machinery and supplies are hauled, and later on ores will be shipped over to the railroad.
 The Combination is one of the old properties of the Blackberry group and at one time produced large tonnage of rich ore. There are eight claims embraced in this group, four of them being on the main Blackberry vein. The old works were carried along the vein 200 feet, the opening being an adit drift. Understoping was done throughout this shoot to a depth be- low the floor of the level and the ground cut out to the grassroots. Some of this ore carried values as high as HOO ounces silver. There is still some of this rich stuff in sight and we believe that the contemplated development will bring much of this ore into view, as we'll as great ton mage of mill stuff. The vein is 15 feet wide, the greater part of which is mineralized.

AMERICAN FLAG TAX EN OVER BY AYLW|N
 AND ASSOCIATES

Kingman people will be pleased to learn that F. P. Aylwin and associates have taken over the old American Flag mine and will begin operations on the property at once.
 The American Flag was discovered about 1876 by William Shoulders, an old time Pacific coast miner, while on a hunting expedition into the high range. He had followed deer up the mountain from the spring and finally shot it. The deer expired on an out crop of the vein and when MT. Shoult- CTS sat down to rest he found the out crop. Breaking off some of the ore he went back to camp and ascertained that he had made the discovery of g wonderfully rich vein. After sinking a shaft to depth of about 60 feet and shipping some ore to Swansea Wales, he sold the mines to Richards Corin and company for $25,00O. The purchasers immediately began the driving of a deep tunnel on the prop erty as well as keeping the other work under way, shipments being sent out regularly to the Wales smelter. This deep tunnel was carried in the greater part of 900 feet on the vein and a large tonnage of ore opened up. Sales to the total value of over $40O,OOO was made by William Richards, Jack Corin, J. w. Prisk and "Monte" Pen berthy, the owners. The shaft was carried to a depth of 250 feet on the vein and laterals were carried off north and south at the 100 and 200 the latter being intersected by an adit drift The vein shows a long shoot of ore and ore was still visible in the heading when the lower tunnel was discontinued. All along this level good ore was encountered, and prac, tically all ore taken from the mine was sent to the smelteries. About 200 feet from the portal of the lower drift cross vein was encountered that carried wonderful values in sill yer, specimen of which adorns the cabinet of the Miner. This ore car ried an average value in excess of 5000 per ton. On the levels above this vein was opened and much of the rich ore was extracted from it. But the main ore body lies in the large vein, which has thousands of tons of ore in sight of high mill value. The further development of this property should assure a long life of produc- tion, and the former high values of the ore would predicate better ore, if possible, at greater depth.
 The people back of this enterprise are we'll able to finance this property to a successful conclusion. The mine is situated in one of the most idea parts of the Wallapai mountains, be- ing close to the big timber and in a well watered part of the range. A good road could be readily built into the mines, the road already being in passable shape to within two miles ot the property. The item alone will be
Mohave County miner and our mineral wealth., 1921-02-11

of great value in the development of the mines and operation of mill, be- cause of having necessary timber to hand at small cost, as well as furnish ing wood for fuel needs. The situa- tion is beautiful as we'll as important and we believe that mine can be op- erated there for far less than at any other point in the county. With prop CT financing this mine should soon be among the big producers of the coun- ty.

GOLD STANDARD PLAN
 FOR MEXICAN MONEY

A message from the City of Mexi- co, under date of February z, says:
 Adoption of a gold standard for Mexico's monetary system, the draw ing up of treaties with other nations that will give her a better trade and social position in the world and the abolition of all excise taxes were urged in resolutions adopted Sunday and today by the convention of the Confederated Chambers of Commerce of Mexico in session in Juarez."
 An effort to bring Mexico to the gold standard has long been the de- sire of the financiers of the United States and Europe and it may now be said to have been accomplished.

NEWBY AND ASSOCI- ATES TAKE OVER MINE
 AT HALEY, IDAHO

l.. B. Newby, who has been oper- ating the Antler and Copper World mines, east of Yucca, has just com pleted deal for the Silver Triumph mines company property, near Haley, Idaho, his associates taking over con- trol. The properties had been oper- ated in the old silver days by the flag gin and Hearst interests, but due to the falling price of silver and the in creased costs of production work was suspended on the mines in 1893. Since that time many engineers have examined the property and the reports have been universally favorable. Sometime last year the property was examined by Frank Dillon, a well known Los Angeles mining engineer, Who immediately organized a com pany to take it over. It is this com pany that surrenders it's control to MT. Newby and associates, of New York. The mines have had an enor- nous amount of work done on them and are in shape to immediately re- spond to production calls. One of the first necessities is milling plant cap able of handling from 300 to 500 tons daily, the ore blocked out being of sufficient tonnage to keep such a plant in operation for years to come. Work is now under way clearing the drifts, crosscuts and shafts of debris. The main footwall tunnel has been cleared for a distance of 900 feet and shows ore the entire distance. This ore carries a silver value of from 4 ounces to 37 ounces, lead 9.60 per cent to 45 per cent, zinc 4 per cent to 10 per cent. This vein is large and important. On the hanging wall side the vein is 15 feet wide and car ries still better values. This vein has been opened 450 feet, ore showing the whole distance. In clearing out the drifts a cave was found that disclosed another vein lying between the foot wall and hanging. This vein has been drifted on for a distance of 250 feet. A stope was opened and the ore show ing was of a shipping grade, the sil- yer running above "A ounces and lead 30%. This vein has been exploited distance of 300 feet, the exploration being carried below the apex $50 feet on the vein incline. Above these workings are three old adit drifts that produced the great tonnage of rich ore that made the mines famous in the old days.
 MT. Newby, who is at the head of the new operating company, is well known in Kingman and vicinity and his friends here wish him great sue cess in this new undertaking. He has been operating one of the big copper properties contiguous to Yucca, and which is expected to become one of the largest producers of copper in this part of the state. Shipments have been made from the mines to the smelter until copper got too low for profitable production, especially where it had to pay high smelter charges and take care of mine and haulage expens- es. Large blocks of ground are ready in the mine for production and it is expected that further development will bring to light further and better bodies of copper-silver ores.

MANY MINES

Mexico has 5804 silver and about 2OO0 gold mines. This does not com. pare even with Arizona, which has practically that number of patented mines, besides thousands of unpatent- ed mining properties. The mining country of the west, which is not as large as Mexico, has away into the thousands of mines of every descrip- tion, which have made the west the great country that it now is.

EXTREMES OF HEAT AND COLD

So hot does it get in the Imperial Valley that pavement laid in the reg ion of Holtville, on one of the Cali fornia state highways, has been so bent and riven that it is ready to gc to pieces. The heat of the day with the sudden fall in temperature in the night has caused the buckling of the pavement and is fast breaking it into uselessness. And yet the Imperial Valley is one of the most important agricultural and viticultural sections of the State of California.

less New Fields Are Dis

Lawrence. Kans,, April ga
the present din .nishing rate OF
production, the world supply of OF
Twill be very low in 1922 and al
most completely exhausted by 1928
unless vast new fields now un-
known are discovered. This is tho
startling prediction of some geolo'
gists which is affirmed by Pref
Il. S. Knappan, of the department
Iot geology at the University OF
Kansas.
Unless American genius discov-
crs some motor fuel to take the
place of gasoline, the Old hitch
rack may again aGprn thC streets

pillow horse will be taken from the
obscure field where he has Oee1

further, the horse aau buggy may
again ovcome the popular JOY rid
ing equipment, replacing the auto
mobile.
The supply If oil is limited 10
seven years &. the present rat Of
production, said Professor Kuup-
pen. The peak Of petroleum pro-
duCtiOn was reached in 1920. I.sti-
mated on a basis of probable, I'M
probable, and imp )Ssible o., pro-
ducing areas, th"re is little to in
dictate that the future United
States oil production will ever rise
above the point it reached in 1920.
( A a ~ ..s,K
says that by September,
1922. Mexico will be through pro-
ducing oil in commercial quaint
ties.
Since Mexico produces 20 per
cent of all the oil produced in for
eign countries, there is little rcas-
on to believe that our supply OF
oil for refining purposes can be
extended by any foreign oil
production. The Russian fields are
our only possibility. Africa, from
the producing standpoint, is hope
less. Europe is already we'll drilled
up. Some hope is given from the
fields in Mesopotamia
There is little reason to believe
that there will be any great flu
ture production. The mid-conti-
nent fields were estimated as pro-
ducing SO per cent of the total pro-
duction in 1921. All the mid-con-
tinent fields are fairly long-lived,
that is they last about five years" "
In the opinion of Professor
knappen, either a substitute for
gasoline must be found or the oil
companies will have to commence
'etining oil shale. SO far this has
not been found commercially prof
table, it is said, since the cost of
'ctining is about two or three
lines the present cost of gasoline.
