Of breeding, this dairyman told a
dairy extension specialist that whei
he formed a bull association he could
choose the bulls from his herd, set q
fair price on them, and he (the breed
er) would cut that price in two.
This breeder has a large and I'm
usually high-producing herd of pure
bred cows, the herd average being
more than $4,000 pounds of milk a
year. Offers of a similar character
have been made by several other
breeders in different sections of the
United States, says the department
specialist, all of which indicates tina.

when the Briton touched at Pitcairn
island, two Of the natives were invited
to dine on board. They were tall,
handsome youths, with dark hair and
open. pleasing countenaces. Extreme
" scantily clothed, they wore straw
hats ornamented with black cocks

least, incongruous. When something
to eat was set before them. the chron-

savages, suddenly clasped their hands
together and n of them, to the

Production Efficiency

also has another far reaching pos
sibility. After proper comparative
standards are determined through
experiments it may be possible to
keep the figures up-to date for each
large city. Thus the relative labor
efficiency per dollar could be quoted
Just as commodity prices" and
freight rates" are now quoted. This
would inevitably create a friendly
rivalry between different sections and
tend to increase the efficiency OF
both management and labor for the
entire country.
In so doing we would accomplish
more in reducing prices. developing
foreign trade and creating pros
perity than could ever be done with
any sort of Congressional legisla- :
tion. In fact / am writing the sub
stance OF the above article to sew
eral Chambers of Commerce today
and there is no reason why the
Chamber of Commerce of any prog
ressive American city should not go
ahead on its own hook and make
such a survey. Advertising the pro-
duction efficiency of a community
will do more toward bringing new
industries to it than any number OF
booster conventions and ordinary
municipal publicity campaigns.
MANY manufacturers complaining
about business today and many wage
workers out of employment will find
the solution of their problem when
their local Chamber Of Commerce in
stitutes a. labor test and publishes
the results of comparisons With the
figures of other cities.
incidentally l want to reiterate the
fact that labor policies and produc-
ton efficiency will prove to be the
greatest single factor in governing
industrial profits for 1922. The
speculator will do we'll to buy shares
in concerns who are following an
intelligent labor policy. and who have
come 10 realize that the solution to
the labor problem lies in production
per dollar and not in dollars per hour
or hours per week.
Note: Mr.. Babson claims that
there must be an increase in produc-
ton efficiency in order to lower costs
and quicken buying. He believes the
solution of our troubles will come
about through increasing efficiency
rather than in decreasing wages as
the later results in decreasing pur-
chasing power. He says that ap-
probation and intelligent action along
these lines will do more than any
other one thing TO bring the Babson-
chart-which now stands at minus
Is per cent--back to normal.

shipments have been started from

At Jerome considerable interest
centers around the property of the
Jerome Verde Development company
as the result of a strike of high
grade copper ore near the end line
of this property by the United Verte
Extension. which has a contract to
develop Jerome Verde ground and is
now driving toward it. The Verde
Central, also at Jerome. is now un-

being a large producer. 1t is ru-
mored also, that the Shea mine, in

reopened to development in the near
future. The c. e. A., has increased

Substantially higher prices for
copper are expected within the next
three or four months, according to
the copper authorities. as there is an
impending scarcity of the metal. A
shortage of the red metal will prob
ably bring the copper price UP on a
firm basis to between 10 and 16
cents.
The domestic supply today is con-
sidered to be approximately 100000
900 pounds, while the surplus of ex-
port copper is about 20O,000,000. jan
uary sales showed about 10000. 900
pounds for domestic consumption. and
about 40,000,000 pounds for export, a
total of 110,000,000 pounds.
The consumption last year aver
aged about 100000, 900 pounds a
month, so that 1t can be seen that it
will take but three or four months
to have the surplus practically
cleared UP.
Because Of the lull in buying dur
ing the past two months, producers
are not anxious to speed up the open
ing Of their mines. The mines have
had such a long period of adversely
that the producers are loathe to
speed production until they are sure
of more buying Of the metal.
There is also the feeling that prices
are coming in the near future which
is evidenced by the fact that the
Copper Export association is not
pushing the sale of its export surplus
at current prices. AS the market
now stands, there is not much more
than normal supply as there is nor
mally about three to four hundred
million pounds in transit.
Additional activity in the copper
mining industry of this state during
the past week is noted in the re-
sumption of operations at the con-
centrator of the OId Dominion Min
ing company of Globe. According to
w. G. Mcbride, general manager of
the Old Dominion, the mill viii
handle about 500 tons of ore daily. no
increase in this being contemplated
for the time being. The company
is now employing approximately 400
men, and is reported as having some
difficulty INJECTING miners with real
experience underground. The same
condition holds true in most Of the
other camps. and is the result Of the
exodus of skilled labor following the
enforced shut down last spring.
