Show IWi UTAH COPPER COMPANY f v HAS SPLENDID FUTURE F ' (l . V Tli? copper production for the I ?V0,nttl of Mavv ot something over-4,000.- . J 00 pounds is by far the largest for any hko period since the initial ore i U shipments of tho company to tho Gar- 4 field, concentrator. This rati of out- L J ( h Put is approximately 0,000.000 pounds K , Per annum, nalcing to Ut.m 'up-,r R. ' company already ono oftliM country's g ' ' leading producers, though its scale' of I operations is still c usidcrably below i, ' a that for which surfaoo facilities have . :' pcen provided. Tho Garfield conc.-n- , I ' trator contains twelve units, each of a h ,! 3ail7 capacity, of 500 tons, yet .but ten It jr. of theBe were in commission last month, Hi III, from which it is evident that, as wo lv ' h??e previously advised, tho output of T" I y?18 c9mPany will very shortly be at the rate of 60,000,000 pounds per an- 1 U I DW. which ou a 13-cent metal market I will insure, net earnings of a trille over j tt. .. . ho Tlau Vopper is constantly bet- 1- "tenng its position for the handling of (k I A; a R ore tonnage, and this improvement f , ffil continue for a year or so. after .4 which a cleaner and better quality of ;:4 oro will at all times be available' and i.i Tnl"in costs will compare favorably v v I Wltl1 the average of this country's mos"t r Bucces3ful producers. The management IJ J , of .the Utah Copper company is given to Iij i i h ;iv.

An increase of about 50 per cent in X the capacity of the Garfield plant is is contemplated, and, when it is consid-ered consid-ered that its ore supply is practically inexhaustible, thero is excellent warrant r' for the belief that within two years tho IK Utah Copper company will bo produc- 1-L' "g the red metal at a rate well up to ' 111) 100,000,000 pounds per annum! Thn ! lA "np is an open-air, steam-shovel prop- . ;( osition; it has no shafts, neither has it . hoisting or pumping plants or such oth- ; ' f er equipment as is necessary to the op- oration of moat copper mines. Therein ' lies a marked advantage, and one which i )f renders possible the remarkably cheap . 5 j costs above indicated. ,'v j 1 J VVe have constantly directed the afc- IV ' I tcntipu of our readers to the favorable ff ill l Psltl011 tliis company was destined to (j fe , occupy as a future producer.
