RED CROSS HEALTH NOTES

The school at Turbcville is the only
one which has been inspected this
month to date. Miss Moore spent
the second week of the month attend
ing the Health Institute in Columbia.
All of the lectures were splendid and
the nurse will find them of great help
in her work.
The inspection Of the school at Tur-
bcvillc was most satisfactory. 1t is
very evident that the teachers and
pupils have been working to raise
their standard of Health and they are
succeeding well. The teeth Of the
pupils are in much better condition
than last year and the general condi.
ton is much improved also.

It VIII De noted thnt there were but
twenty three who had been vaccinat-
ed. This is a very small number, in
view Of the fact that smallpox is on
the increase, owing to the laxness in
recent years of vaccination, every
child should be vaccinated as soon as
possible in order that this terrible
disease may not be abroad in the
land.

CHICAGO. August 2s.-Trading in
wheat was not large at the start
today, local traders being inclined to
await leadership on either side. The
market ran into selling orders soon
after the opening and checked the
early advance. Support came from
commission houses on minor breaks.
Receipts were estimated at S06,000
bushels. The opening, which was at
unchanged figures to 4 higher; with
September 1.O2ta to 1.02%, and Decem-
ber 1.O3% to 1.03h. was followed by a
slight sag all around.
Rains in parts of Nebraska, Illinois
and Indiana made corn easier at the
start, but the market rallied quickly
on reports of higher temperatures in
Kansas The opening, which varied
from u to y lower. with September 60.

Fair Amount Of Trading for Deliv-
cries This Fall.

Trading in the market for cotton
goods today was largely confined
to spots and September deliveries.
Neither mills nor buyers were greatly
inclined to extend their commitments
for later deliveries although con-
sumers OF heavyweight goods. in
Guiding ducks took fair amounts for
delivery this fall. Prices for print
cloths were very Arm, rejecting the
strong opening Of the raw cotton
market, and prices for 64x60s. 6Sa72s
were we'll maintained. Sheetings
were more irregular and demand for
twills and sateens was light.
Shading of prices was not in evil
dence in the silk market and quota

business.

Ore Showing Good

The rich ore-body encountered in the western part of Old Dominion continues in evidence and in the east upraising has disclosed a large ton mage of high grade ore, running about 4 per cent to Az per cent copper. The ore in the west, assayed, showed an average of better than per cent cop per.
 Old Dominion is keeping in liquid condition. It is we'll sold up on cop per and on the future of metal prices will depend to what extent produc- tion will be increased.
 Companies May Merge
 The large interest in both Old Dominion and Arizona Commercial are confident that consolidation of the two properties would be of dis tinct advantage to both companies and if equitable terms can be worked out, this will be done. The Phelps Dodge contingent owns in excess of 60 percent of Old Dominion's 350,000 shares outstanding and they are fully cognizant of the progress made by Arizona Commercial in the last few Record.

OLD DOMINION MILL
 SOON BE INCREASED

GLOBE, July 15.-Plans for remo- deling the Old Dominion company'S mill, when carried out, will increase its capacity from 700 tons per day to 1000 tons and should insure higher extraction of metal and lower the cost of concentration, according to General Manager w. G. Mcbride.
 Improvements in the mill to effect these desirable results have been de- signed by members of the company's staff and the work will be done by company mechanics without the em- ployment of additional help. The cost of remodeling the mill, including new equipment, will be approximately $5O,- 900. About three months will be re- quired to make the desired changes and it will not ben ecessar yto shut down the mill while the work is in progress.
 Modern Equipment Planned
 The new equipment will include Hummer screen to replace the old shaking screens, additional tables, and additional Callow cells in the Notation section. Also some changes will be made in the flow sheet.
 The Boston News Bureau say that at no time since it resumed produc- tion early this year has the per pound cost been higher than the selling price of copper, and in May the com pany made substantial entry on the profit of the ledger.

BAD CONDITION AT CANYON

It is not believed that this condition will obtain long, as this is the time of year when thousands of visitors go to the canyon to gaze upon the wonderful sights of Natures most magnificent gorge.

4 BRIGHT OUTLOOK
FOR ATLIN MINE

One of the mines tributary to Skagway has taken on a new and brightening aspect during the past summer. The Atlin Silyer-Lead Mines, in which J. M. Ruffner is pre- sident and managing trustee, has been going steadily forward. and this year are more confident than ev- CT that they have a paying proposi- tion.
 A shipment of fifteen tons of sam pie ore has been sent out and will be smelted at the selby smelter in Tacoma. Assays of this ore show silver content of 2OO-3OO ounces to the ton, and gold values of S15 to [ the ton. This is high-grade ore and it is merely a question of amount and condition, which is now being 1 determined by the owners. Twenty two veins have already been traced by the prospecting on this property, and every indication at present looks like this would be one of the big mines of the community.
 The cost of producing a ton of ore in this section is given as S7O per | ton. With a silver content of $20O, and and some gold and other metals, | it looks extremely good to the in Iterested parties.
 Plans are afoot for financing in a 1 larger way the mine, and this win ter. contract has been let for the i sinking of a shaft on a rich ore vein of No. tunnel.
 1 The installation of an air com pressor is another thing planned for the winter and early spring work and the construction of a first class wag- on road from the lake to the mine property will make possible the more economical hauling of the ore for transport as the quantity increases, Now the ore must be hauled by sled in the winter as that Is the easiest and best method.
 The mine has passed the first 1 stage of development and there is abundant indication that 1t will make a big mine with big profits to It's owners.

GERMAN SHIP
 TONNAGE INCREASES

An indication of the way one of our maritime rivals is increasing it's competition with American ships is shown in German tonnage figures. In 1919 the value or exports and im- ports carried in German ships in and out of American ports was only $131,OO0. In 1920 it was S9,6S5,- 900; in 1921, Sl7,OOO,OOO; and in the fiscal year 1922, $44,119,OOO. It is reported that German ship ton mage has increased to 100000 tons from 6OO,OOO last year. That in- crease in the German ocean carry ing trade has been at the expense of the merchant marines of other na- tions, and thee loss will be largely borne by the American merchant ma rine unless such relief as is afford ed by the pending snip subsidy bill is soon granted. Fortunately that measure will be among the first to be considered when Congress recon venes.
