Wool prices for the past several
weeks have shown stronger under

at a low level. Optimism prevails due
largely to the practice in textile CEN

fluctuations which have occurred in
past years when buying was concen-

SPRING LAMBS
in CALIFORNIA
MOVE TO MARKET
BY J. A. NAUGHTON

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 22.-The annual
movement of milk lambs from Cali
fornia is about to get under way
There is an unusual condition on the
Pacific coast this season in that Cali
fornia has 10000 more lambs on feed
than normally.
At a glance it might seem that this
larger number of fat lambs would
have an adverse effect on the market
ing of spring lambs but the increase
on the coast as well as in the corn
belt, which is around 100000 head in
excess of last year, is more than Off
set by decreased numbers in other
western statrs. IN Sgblonado alone
there are 100000 fewer lambs on feed
than last year with $4,000 less in
wyoming and $4,000 less in Idaho all
though Montana has $4,000 head more
than last year. Taking these figures
all together there are 1885, 900 head or
s per cent fewer lambs and sheep on
feed at this season than was the case
last year.
Due to the decreased number of
lambs on feed throughout the coun-
try indications are that lambs on feed
will be pretty well cleaned up before
the new crop lambs are ready for mar
ket. Spring lambs should meet with
ready demand ocming as they will be-
tween the time when the supply of
feed lot lambs is exhausted and the
period when the kentucky and Ten
nessee lambs start to market.
The first shipment of California
TN,,o
on January 18th which is month
earlier than last year but the bulk Of
these lambs will probably not move
until around the middle of March.
Shipment of dressed lambs to the
Atlantic seaboard was commenced in
California in 1923 by San Francisco
packer and during the first year only a
few cars were handled. In 1924 the
movement of live lambs from Cali
fornia on account of the quarantine
regulations a large portion of the lamb
crop was dressed locally and shipped
by refrigerated cars to the Middle
West and the Atlantic seaboard. Dur
ing that year nearly 10000 lambs
were handled in this way and the
feasibility of the practice was demon
strated so that with a return to nor
NAL conditions in 1925, 10000 lambs
were shipped dressed and in 1926 some
60, 900 were moved in the same way.
Indications are that this is the be-
ginning of a new method of meat food
distribution from the Pacific south
west and eventually Los Angeles is
destined to become a world factor in
meat packing and distribution. Live

u. Y. X. ISSUES
ANNUAL REPORT
ON ACTIVITIES

The directors of the United Verde
Extension Mining company of which
James S. Douglas of this city is
president, have presented to their
stockholders the annual report OF
operations of the company. The re,
port shows that 43,449,967 pounds
CT copper were sold during the year
and that on January 1, 1927 there
against 10,128,62S pounds on hand
as of January 1, 1926.
Both the mines and the smelter
of the company operated continu-
ously throughout the year. The ore
gmelted was 1891 dry tons of
which 1910 per cent was copper,
O42 ounces geld and LIS ounces
silver.
A great amount of development
work was done during the year in
the U. " x. ground and a further
amount was carried on in the Je-
rome Verde ground. At the U. v. Y.
total of 2,O5S feet of diamond
drilling was done while at the Je-
rome Verde 1924 feet of diamond
drilling was accomplished.
The average cost of copper per
pound during the year was .0647
cents. Development in the upper
levels to the westward in the "
v. x. the report states, shows the
extension in size of the ore bodies
there. The work done on the Jerome
Verde was under contract and will
be abandoned as no ore bodies of
commercial Importance were encount-
cred.
The report does not give figures
on ore reserves as it states that
such figures have been used detri-
mentally to stockholders, but states
that the reserves are equal to those
of two years ago. Quarterly divi-
dends during the year aggregated
$500 a share. The total amount OF
1925 dividends was $3,15O,00O.
The report says that development
work has been started on the BisDee
Queen group of claims in the south
ern end of the Warren mining dis
trict and a shaft to some depth will
he sunk with as little delay as pos
sible Development work is also
contemplated on a northern extern
sion of the Noranda mine in the
Eouyn district in Quebec on which
an option has been secured and
ether work elsewhere may be un-
dertaken.

BIG PRODUCTION
OF OIL RESULTS
in PRICE SLASH

TULSA, Feb. % P.-Overproduction
of oil in the United States brought
about by the recent enormous increase
in the yield of Seminole field in Okla
homa was felt today on the market for
the first time when reductions in the
prices of crude OIL ranging from Is to
80 cents barrel, were announced.
The Carter Oil company, the largest
producer in the Seminole area, took
the initiative, and by tonight at least
two other major companies had an
nounced similar reductions. The possi-
bility of a price war was suggested by
the announcement late today by the
Empire Petroleum company at Bartles-
Vile that it would not meet the cut
The Magnolia company in Dallas and
the Prairie company at independence,
Kan, posted reductions, however
The new prices ranged from $1.35 per
barrel for 2S gravity oil to $2.31 for So
gravity and above.
Oil men estimated that between
100, 900 and 175,OOO barrels of oil in ex-
cess of present consumption needs are
being produced daily. The Oil and Gas
journal in its report today declared
that the daily oil production in the
United States for the week ending Feb
ruary 10 had increased 16,40O barrels
over that of the previous week. The
increase for the mid-continent area,
which includes the Seminole field, was
93, $50 daily.
The steady increase for the last
month had brought predictions that the
crude market would have to be lowered
but the cut today came as surprise to
oil men.
Many, however, are of the opinion
that the bottom has not been reached
and that the decrease will run as low
as so cents a barrel, if production fig
ures keep up,
For some time available storage
tanks and pipe line facilities have been
unable to take care of the production
in the Seminole field.
Ray Collins, an umpire appointed to
survey conditions in the field, made his
report to the operators yesterday. He
recommended that no more wells in the
district be "shot" and that the flowing
wells be "pinched in In his report he
suggested also that not only were the
physical facilities of the field unable to
cope with the supply, but that there
was danger of the buyers of crude oil
being unable TO take all that the field
had to offer.
