THE COUNTRY BOYS CREED

"I believe that the country which God made is more beautiful than the city which man made; that life out of doors and in touch with the earth is the natural life of man. 1 believe that work is wherever we find it, but that work with Nature is more inspiring than work with the most intricate machinery. I believe that the dignity of labor depends not upon what you do, but on how you do it; that opportunity comes to boy on the farm as often as to a boy in the city; that life is larger and freer and happier on the farm than in the town; that my success depends not upon my location, but upon myself-not upon my dreams, but upon that which I actually do, not upon luck, but upon pluck. I believe in working when you work and playing when you play, and in giving and demanding a square deal in every act of life. Edwin Os- good Grover.

WOOL SCHEDULE FINISHED

Monday witnessed the completion of the tariff wool schedule, the remain ing duties proposed by the finance committee being adopted without any change, though the services of the sergeant-at-arms had to be called in- to reuuisition to secure quorum. The duties on knit fabrics ranged from 39 cents ID. and 35 per cent ad valor- em to 49 cents a pound and 55 per cent ad valorem. Duties ranging from 26 cents a pound and 40 per cent ad yalorem to 49 cents pound and 50 per cent ad valorem were imposed on clothing not knitted or crocheted, ac- cording to value, while the rate on manufactured articles not otherwise specially provided for was fixed at 55 per cent ad valorem. Senator Walsh of Massachusetts argued that as re- spected mems clothing the proposed rates were unnecessary and were not desired by clothing manufacturers. He quoted figures to show that the duty would be greater in amount than that imposed by the Payne-Aldrich law, and declared that the rates would constitute an invitation to clothing manufacturers to raise their prices. Senator Shoot in defending the pro- visions admitted that the makers of ready-to-wear clothing did not need protection, but said the merchant tail ors did, and that the duties were in tended to apply to clothing which Americans had made abroad which silk schedule was afterward taken ur and Chairman McCumber said that the revenue lost through prohibition must be made up and that there was no better source for that purpose than luxuries such as silk. The duties pro. posed, ranging from 35 to SO per cent ad valorem were, however, he said, as we'll for the protection of the domes' tic industry as for revenue. In spite of efforts to reduce them, the rate: were all approved. The pulp and pa
 per schedule was next in order, ant many duties were agreed to, the at valorem equivalents of which are sait to represent decreases from the orig inal finance committee rates. Int end of the long debate is forecast il suggestions made on both sides to fi' day on which to begin the final vot'
 on the bill and all pending amend
 ments. ts.-Bradstreets.

PRESERVATION OF GAME
Editor of Coconino Sun:

Editor of Coconino Sun:
 Dear Sir-An article that appeared in The Arizona Republican under date of July 13, 1922, signed by MT. Bob bic Burns, Williams, Ariz., gave out information that quail and turkey in this state are being killed off by poi son put out for predatory animals. This article states further that the predatory animals are on the increase.
 Our association does not desire to enter into any controversy, but feels that the information, given wide pub licity by The Republican, should not go unchallenged.
 Under date of Aug. 1, in The Ari- zona Republican, State Game War den Prochaska states that this is the best year in his experience for in crease of wild turkey. In fact, the supply is so large that the birds in the White Mountain country are be- ing transplanted to less fortunate sections of the state. It is note- worthy fact that the Williams, Ariz., section is not considered depleted of wild turkey to an extent to warrant any restocking.
 We feel that the sportsmen of Ari- zona should know conditions as we find them. To the best of our know ledge, there has never been either one quail or one turkey known to have been killed by poison. Tests have been made to attempt to poison quail and turkey by using strychnine, and | in the bulletin of the National Game Protective association, issued Janu- ary, 1922, the results of this expert ment lead to the conclusion that poi soning is impossible.
 The U. s. biological survey and its co-operators have done a lasting good service in extermination work, as a result of which the ranges of the northern part of the state show today greatly diminished number of pred. atory animals. It is a noteworthy fact that on ranges where intensive poisoning has been done that there are more young quail this year thar within the past ten years. 1t should be remembered that the automobile has made it possible to reach quickly the former isolated hunting sections Very truly yours

BETTER DEMAND FOR WOOL

Better demand for worsted goods and increasing scarcity of good worst ed wools are credited with the decided improvement shown in the Boston wool market during the past week. This improvement was first noted in a broadening of the demand for three eighth-blood grades. with a corres- bonding strengthening of asking prices, but the change was not linn ited to that grade alone. The whole situation is now decidedly stronger and more cheerful, and this is en- tirely indenendent of the tariff uues- tion. In fact, that has heen showed into the backpround for the moment bv the logic of events. Manufacturers tavo been able, apparently, to swing buyers into low-rriced worsteds. and in order to do this have begun to take over medium wools. Dealers claim that the position of fine wools is also exceedingly strong. Tn fact, no grade of domestic wool is weak. thopph not all are alike active. Prac- ticellv the only soft snot in the mar ket is in secured East India and South American wools. with which the nar- ket is overloaded at the rnorent. The last East India sale at Liverpooi closed 15 to 20 nor cent off from June close on best whites and to 10 per cent off for best vellows. This result is said to have been due to lack of American support. The wool trade Is in a hood position. and the feelino is optimistic. in spite of strikes, tariff delay and other handicaps.-Brad- streets.

Preparatory to launching an active campaign for the eradication of tu- berculosis in cattle in Arizona, Dr. M. Shipley, federal veterinarian with the United States bureau of animal indus try, is conferring with Dr. R. J. Flight, state veterinarian.
 An appropriation of $15,0O0 was provided by the legislature for the carrying out of this program in CO., operation with the government, along plans which have been followed with notable results in other states. The money is now available and Dr. Ship ley having been assigned to this work by the government, it will be started at once.

MUSICAL NOTE

A very deaf old lady, walking along the street, saw an Italian turning a peanut roaster. She stood looking at it awhile, shook her head and said: "No, shan't give you any money for such music as that. I can't hear any of the tunes, and besides it smells as if there were something burning in sidel"

The Outlaw

When my rope takes hold on two-year-old, \ By the foot or the neck or the horn, He kin plunge and fight till his eyes go white But I'll throw him as sure as you're born. Though the taut rope sings like banjo string And the latigoes creak and strain, Yet got no fear of an outlaw steer And I'll tumble him on the plain
 For man is man, but steer is beast, And the man is the boss of the herd, And each of the bunch, from the biggest to least, Must come down when he says the word When my leg swings 'cross on an outlaw hawse And my spurs cinch into his hide, He kin Tar and pitch over hill and ditch, But wherever he goes I'll ride. Let i'm spin and flop like crazy top Or fit like wind-whipped smoke, But he'll know the feel of my rowled heel Till he's happy to own he's broke.
 For man is man and hawse is brute, And the hawse may be prince of his clan But he'll bow to the bit and the stee-shod boot And own that his boss is the man. When the devil at rest underneath my vest Gets up and begins to paw And my hot tongue strains at it's bride reins Then tackle the real outlaw When get plumb rled and my sense goes wild And my temper is fractious growed, If he'll hump his neck just triflin' speck, Then it's dollars to dimes Pm throwed. For man is man, but he's partly beast; He kin brag till he makes you deaf, But the one lone brute from the west to the east, That he kaint quite break is himself.

a few weeks ago. The showing ex-
POSED in the main tunnel was a re-
narkably good one, there being about
a foot Of good ead-silver ore in the
face, and it is understood that this has
steadily improved with development
However, the company found it neces-
sary to discontinue operations tenn
porarily until after the first of the
year, when financial arrangements will
be made to proceed with the develop
ment of the property. The outcrop of
the ledge on both slopes Of Moon creek
is reported to be strong and continu-
Gus Characteristic of the great mineral
bearing veins of the district, which,
AIKEN in connection with the showing
of ore in the tunnel, justify the expec-
tation of a large ore body when the
vein is explored at depth.

Wilson Company.

William Burke, president and larg

home in Saltese this morning after
spending several days in Wallace. Mr..
Burke expects to leave soon for the
east for the purpose of making finan-
ciaI arrangements for further devel-
opment of the Wilson, which is stu
ated about two and a half miles south
of Saltese, on Silver creek. The par
ticular work to be done is to extend
crosscut, already in several hundred
feet, about 200 feet further to the vein.
This will give a depth of over 400 feet
and the ore showing in the upper tun-
mel together with the mineral showing
on the surface strongly indicate a
large body of lead-silver ore when the
vein is reached. AS described by Mr.
Burke, the Wilson presents an unusu-
ally attractive quick action develop
ment proposition.

RICH REX ORE SHOOT
CONTINUES STRONG IN
INTERMEDIATE TUNNEL

Paul Meacham, who has charge
Of development operations for the
Rex Consolidated Mining COM
pany came down from the mine
last Tuesday Asked regarding
the recent strike in the intermedi-
ate level between No. 1 and No. .
tunnels. he said that the ore had
been continuous for more than 80
feet and that all indications point
ed to an extensive ore shoot. The
drift is following the footwall and
the entire face is in ore. A recent
average sample across the face
gave an assay return of % per cent
lead and u ounces i'm silver. There
are frequent streaks and lunches
of high grade and a sample from
one of these returned 76 per cent
lead and 27 ounces in silver The
width of the vein has not been de-
termined and il is altogether like
ly that additional ore viii be found
next to the hanging wall on the
level above the vein is said TO have
been in places % feet wide and
carrying ore the full width. Drift
ing is being done by hand, but Mr.
Meacham said that the manage
ment is considering placing the
compressor in commission in order
to speed up the work.

PARAGON MILL SOON TO
START SAYS GRIMSMOE
RETURNS FROM DIRECTORS CON.
FERENCE IN ST. PAUL
VISITS OLD HOME.

Chris l. Grimsmoe, superintendent
of the Paragon Consolidated Mining
company returned from St. Paul last
Monday afternoon and left Tuesday
afternoon for the mine, which is stu
ated a few miles above Murray. Mr..
Grimsmoe was called to St Paul about
two weeks ago to confer with the Off
GERS and directors of the company re-
garding future operations with tire
view to placing the property on pro-
ductive and profit earning basis, and
during his absence work was generally
suspended. A short time before he
left the extension of the electric power
line of the Washington Water Power
company was completed from Raven
to the Paragon, motors installed and
connection made for driving the COM
pressor and mill by electric power.
Mr.. Grimsmoe said that arrangements
were made to resume operations upon
his return to the mine, and that he
would proceed at once to place the
mill in shape for production, which he
estimated would require about week
The mill has been practically made
over. many changes having been made
and equipment added which will result
in a closer separation and recovery of
the lead and zinc. A ball mill is also
to be added to the plant and this
should be delivered in about two
weeks. There is plenty of ore avail
able to keep the mill going until addi-
tional ore reserves are made available
sinking the shaft and prosecuting at
depth of 300 feet. The mill will have
a capacity of about 14O tons a day.
Owns Large Group.
The Paragon company owns a large
group of claims and when the prop
erty is systematically developed is ex-
pected to be able to produce a large
tonnage of both lead and zinc. The
ore that is now to be mined is chiefly
lead silver Besides the original Para
gon group the company a few years
ago acquired by purchase the Murray
Hill property, more Familiarity known
as the Blackhorse, which included the
mill. The Blackhorse produced con-
siderable tonnage many years ago, and
while nothing has been done in the
way of development in recent years, 1t
is nevertheless a valuable asset and is
expected to eventually make a sub
stantiaI addition to the mineral output
of the Paragon.
After completing his business in st.
Paul, Mr.. Grimsmoe visited his former
home in the southern part of Minneso- |
ia, this being his first visit in about
Is years He said he was impressed !
with the evidences of prosperous BUSH |
ness conditions in st. Paul and Mime
apolis and in fact in all parts Of the
state of Minnesota.

WILL SOON
BE IN CONDITION TO
RESUME PRODUCTION.

Manager c. w. Newton lost no
time in getting action when the
word came last week to prepare
the Callahan mine for production
Yesterday he reported that the
preliminary work was progressing
satisfactorily and that he had ex-
perienced no difficulty in getting
all the men needed at this time,
and from present indications men
will be available when full force
is required underground Many
old Callahan employees were quick
to return. Between thirty and
forty men are now employed do
ing surface work, repairing the
mill and preparing the mine for
operation. Just how much time
will be required to complete this
preliminary work is difficult to es-
innate. but it is believed that by
the first of November. possibly be-
fore the big zinc producer will be
in shape for normal production.
This means that $50 men will be
added TO the payrolls of the dis
trict With the Callahan. lamar
ack and Success in full swing. Nine
Mile will again take its place
among the most productive min
eral sections Of the Occur d'Alene
district.

SUCCESS NOW STOPPING
SOON OPEN A NEW LEVEL
INCREASE RUNNING TIME OF THE
MlLL-SHlPPED THREE CAR
LOADS LAST WEEK..

The Success Mining company ship
ped three carloads of concentrates last
week, and it is expected that develop
ment win soon place the mine in shape
to keep the mill running full time aud
maintain regular shipments. The pre-
| liminary work toward raising on the
/ big ore shoot and opening up slopes
is now practically completed and
breaking ore above the tunnel level
started yesterday. This will almost
Immediately permit the management
to increase the running time of the
MILL which is now operating only one
shift and it is expected three shifts
will soon be required The mill is
turning out a high grade shipping
product, the smelter returns on former
shipments showing 5S per cent lead
and so ounces silver. The zinc product
is being stored as even at the present
price of the metal the management
does not feel justified in shipping to
the retort smelters of the east and
middle west on account of the high
freight tariff.
Unwater to 800 Level.
Now that the big ore shoot on the
700 level is practically in shape to sup
ply the mill with ample tonnage, con-
sideration is being given to unwater-
ing the shaft down to the $50 level
100 feet below the ZOO and then cross
cut to the new ore shoot No definite
estimate is given on the distance to be
crosscut, but it is not far. There is no
reason to doubt that the ore shoot will
be found on the new level fully as
large and rich as on the 700, but its
development at further depth will
be an important step in
the process of developing the new
mine" In fact, in view of the
performance of the old Success ore |
body, there appears to be no doubt |
that the new shoot will be found at
equal depth or to the 1000 level, 900 |
feet below the 7O0
