The decline iii silver mining in the
United States during ;he past year has;
been great. but is largely compensated
by an increased activity in gold min
ing. The production OF silver during
the year 1921 fell OF over eight mil
lion ounces in Colorado from the pro
duction in 1893, which WAS Il decline
OF over 80 per cent. while the product
OF gold in the same State was nearly
doubled. the output for 1891 being &C.
600 ounces while for 1872 the amount
was only 3G4.00o.
In California there was Il slight gain
in the product of silver while the in
crease of gold was $4,000 ounces. the
fetal output for 1884 in the State be-
illg 616,O00. South Dakota i'll 1893
only produced $4,000 ounces of gold.
which was more than doubled in 1884.
tie amount reaching ii3,000 ounces.
while the product of silver was almost
the same as the previous year. In
Montana the output of gold was PIT 900
ounces, IN increase of $4,000 over the
amount in 1893. while the silver product
decreased nearly Onc-half in the same
period being 169O6.O00 in 1893 and
only S.521 900 in 1891 In Idaho the
gold product i'm 1892 was 1900 ounces

These five States produced last year
81 per cent of the gold mined in the
