Dated this 4th day of Amrii't a. n. oRcrrr Recorder of th City of Roseburg, Oregon. COPPKlt PHOOl'CTIOX IX 11)07 tlgures of ISOti this is a decrease of 4S. 809,191 pounds, or 5.6 per cent the largest actual decrease ever recorded and the largest relative de crease since the American copper in dustry became important. This Is the first time since 1901 that the annual production has been smaller than that of the preceding year, and the first time since 1872, that it has been smaller than that of the second year preceding. The total given above Is made up of the line copper content of blister produced and of the smelter output of ingot and anode copper from Michigan. Of this quantity, approxi mately 10,075,048 pounds in blister were produced in foreign smelters from domestic materials exported. In addition to the domestic mater ials handled, smelters In this coun try turned out as blister 64,145.648 pounds from foreign ore, concen trates and matte. Domestic blister containing 4 2,350.963 pounds was exported unrefined, while blister from foreign sources containing ap proximately 183.530,132 pounds fine copper was Imported for refining in this country. The greatest decreases In smelter output are shown by the returns from the three states that rank the highest. Montana's production, which was 294.701,252 pounds in 1906, was but 224.263.789 pounds in 1907, and the state yielded first place to its rival, Arizona, whose production, however, showed a de crease of nearly 6,000.000 pounds, from 262,566.103 pounds In l!nfl to 256.778,437 ponndB In 1907. Michi gan still holds third place, with Re production decreased from 229,695. 730 pounds in 1906 to 219,131,503 pounds in 1907. Decreased produc tion Is also shown by the returns fom Alaska, Oregon, Washington and North Carolina. Sl'ItltOrXIIKI) IIV l-'lltK CranlN Push Having a Hard Battle With II"' I'Imiiicn. GRANTS PASS.
