Study the Paper.
A. HASTINGS.

The writer once took q most excellent
poultry paper, the editor OF which some-
times complained that he received numer-
GUS INQUIRIES by letter with requests to
reply IN the same way, when the answers to
those queries had already been printed In
the paper, and he earnestly requested his
readers Co 'study the paper" as he was
trying to teach them by wholesale with
*, and being himself a practical poultry
raiser, was too busy with that and his
editorial duties TO answer by letter And
I suppose the readers OF all good papers
could profit by the same advice. The read
era OF the Advocate and News have often
such articles as those in the Issue of jan
VinrY lath by Mr.. PETER and In the same
number by Mr.. g. G.. Clemens. All such
articles, my brothers, are worthy Of study,
for you cannot digest an article or fix 1t
In your memory by a careless reading.
Most newspapers, nowadays, have one
or more articles in each Issue worthy OF
careful study, sometimes to see what Is
l'hetween the lines," or else to note the
objects sought, and whether the best In
fareatS OF all are In view OF the writer's,
or if selfish aims are concealed. And we
should not be bound In these studies by
party lines, for when q man gets firmly
fxed in q mere party rut II Is the hardest
thing In the world to pry him out. He

The Work Of Examining Boards.
@. Il. PIERCE.

I notice a complaint in the st. Louis
papers that among the questions pro-
pounded to scholars there striving for pro-
motion to the high school were the follow
ing: "Give the names Of the present
cabinet officers; and what important mea-
sure for raising revenue was enacted OF
later" How ridiculous! If 1t was a contest
among aspiEants for a government position
such Questions might be deemed proper;
but for school children learning the rudi-
ments their appropriateness is very ap-
First-Because few adults even know or
care what the names of the clerks and
advisers of the President are; as they are
OF small account officially and have only a
temporary existence. And, second, thaG
the questions had no place In the school
curriculum and could only be answered by
going outside the school books ana school
regime; and, therefore, were liable 10 oe
used by those posted beforehand TO dereat
an honest student.
IL does seem as IL our learned protessors
and educated gentry too often lack good
horse sense, without which all learning is
OF little avail in this practical world; Some
may remember the case OF the OLD ana
retired army officer who at the beginning
OF our civil war offered himself for service
and was sent before q board OF war tor
examination as TO his capacity, ETC., ana
was there prodded with questions OK no

an commenting upon the situation
Of the metal and the shares of the
producing companies a prominent New
York copper broker says: AS clrcum-
stances Indicate, the demand of
the metal copper in its purity and in
Its alloys will continue to be very
great and for a long time to come,
and the industries that are based upon
the manipulation of the metal, and es-
pecially the industry that produces It.
will be profitable to those connected
herewith.
Cooper Is only found in n few spots
on the globe. The United States pro-
duces about 60 per cent of the world s
product. and mainly comes from Michi-
gan, Montana and Arizona. Although
being the latest of these three sec
tions to develop as a copper producer,
Arizona has already proved to be the
richest as to the quality of its ores,
and the most economical place as to
mining copper of any copper region
heretofore discovered.
" During the past three or four years
no shares Of any kind of an enterprise
have shown the remarkable and steady
Increase In values that the copper
shares have. During the past year
and N half, eight of the leading copper
stocks have Increased in value over
fifty million dollars and they have in
creased over twenty million dollars
during the past six months. The total
par value of their total capitalization
Is only $4,000, 900.
1.-The Rothschilds and other big
capitalists of Europe have agents ex-
ploring the entire western continent
for copper properties. and large
number OF English bankers and oper-
ators have their American correspond
EMS looking up copper mines or large
blocks of stocks in such properties for
investment purposes
The demand for the metal Is
greater than the supply, and the total
visible stock on hand wss never so low
as now, and would be exhausted en-
tirely In two or three months, ii the
supply was stopped in any way.
" The people that have copper mines
or copper stocks nowadays are in
luck"
