(STRICT MAKES GREAT ADVANCEMENT DURING 1012 F FT! PER CE m pnpocD n wage::-; id The Past One has Been a Good Year for Bisbee and Sur rounding District and Future Was Never Brighter; Shattuck Resumed Production on a Five Year Ore Contract at C & A. Smelter - Both Copper Queen and C. & A. Expected to Make Greater Increase in Production During 1913. Last Two Months Were Record Breakers. MANY NEW FEATURES ARE INTROD Increase In the output of the mines by nearly fifty per cent, higher xvages. shorter hours and more men employed were Borne of the good things that 1912 brought to Hlsbee am! the Warren District One year ago the mines ot the district were shipping to the smelters at Douglas r.bout 4,000 tons per day. I-ast month the ore shipments v:ere closer to 6,000 tons per day oa the average. Then wages had been raised from $3.25 and $3.50 to $3.75. Now the mucker is getting his $3.73 and the miner $4. Then the day's -work was eight hours under ground exclusive o fthe time going and coming from and to the mouth o fthe shaft an dtaken for lunch, while now the day 1 eight hours from collar to collar and the men lunch o n the company's time, making the actual work day something less than seven and a half hours instead of something more than eluhL It has Deeu a good year for Bisbee. During the year 191? Shattuck besan shipping in important quantities and largely increased its force. This year shipments Irom that prorerty will be further increased to double the present dailj ot-lput of 250 tons. The rear will see an Increase In the output of the C. and A. mines a3 well and the Copier Queen may be expected to still further enlarge it output. It cannot be expected that j year hence will show fifty per cent more ore going to the smelters as has been done in the past twelve, months but a further substantia! growth can he expected. When Calumet and Arizona has its new smelter complete it will be able to handle consid erable more than at the present timo and there Is always the probability ot other properties starting up. Thereto reason to expect much in the yea r which has juet opened, reason !oexect more than a continuance of th e present prosperity which is nowboing enjoyed. There are no indlcat ions of falling metal prices and maintenance of present figures is h guaranty of continued heavy prpduc-tlon. lji55SSiH Two Record.

It is reported .hat zngiueer Downing, in charge of operations in Olive Camp, has made such headway in demonstrating the ore bodies as to warrant the recom mendation ot a 100,ton plant being erected at once. A lead-silver fur nace will probably be installed to handle the ores of this coming camp, as well as ores from the surrounding districts and Mexico. Adjacent to Olive aCmp, the Em--pire Zinc company will probably erect works for the treatment of zinc ores. This will be a modern process which successfully separates the lead-silver-rinc and copper ores. Rosemont The Lewisohns are carrying on the work In the Rosemont district, Santa Rita mountains, in a very quiet way, but witb most encouraging results. They hare owned a large number if patented claims in this district tor years, upon 'which no work has been done for a long time.

As the wearer of tbe sole sets his foot down the pressure inks the letters and when the foot is taken off the sidewalk the letters leave their clear Impression. Wearing two of these soles an or dinary man can distribute thousands ot advertisements about the city, in a morning walk. As he strolls about the city anyone can advertise hit business.
