The Bureau of Mines reports the
| vr-Ire of mineral production of the
[ TTm •( '"'I States in 1929 was $3,830,
000,030, or 8 per cent greater than
in 1928. The value of metallic pro
ducts was 15 per cent greater. Ex
: cept for gold and silver, all the
import ((nt metals contributed ;to
the increase, of which nearly one
half was accounted for by the gre
j increase in the value of copper.
; While the smelter output of cop
per increased 34 per cent; the aver
age price was higher by 3.2 cents
a pound, or 22 per cent, more than
1928. Production and consumption
of copper continued owing to
an accumulation of stocks of re
fined copper at the end of the
year of more than two and one
half times the stocks at the begin
ning. This was followed by
a recession in both price and buy
ing after the close of the first
quarter of 1930.
In lesser degree the lead, zinc,
and aluminum industries benefited
by a new high level, exceeding 1928
production by 9 per cent, and the
shipments of pig iron reached a
new peak total of 8 percent in
quantity above 1928. Shipments of
iron ore averaged higher. The pro
duction of high grade manganese
ore showed the first increase since
1925 by reason of sustained op
eration of a process of beneficiat
ing carbonate ores.
The production of mercury was
nearly one-third greater in quan
tity and value. Gold production de
clined 1 per cent. The quantity of
silver produced increased moderate
ly, but the average and total value
decreased.
With the freezeup at hand j
and to prevent damage to the
syphon system the water has j
been turned out of the Fair- j

TOWARDS SUCCESS
JUST ADRIFT— OR A STEADY PULL?
THERE is a certain school of thought which
says, “Eat, drink and be merry for tomor
row we die”. But when the hapless morrow
comes, the insouciant philosopher, money
spent, rather wishes he had been a little less
“merry” and a little more saving.
The hand-to-mouth life is mere drifting. It
is only consistent saving that pulls you to
ward your goal in life. “Pick up your oars”
by opening an account witji us.
