their merits will be earnestly considered.
These books are selling finely In other
states. but are not in such general use
here as we could wish them TO be. Our

hope that where other things are equal
our state Board OF Education Will not
hesitate to give n helping hand to our
home authors and publishers.

 from that of '96 of S,256.756 fine
 oz. The gold yield of Mexico for
 he year was $9,436.3O This last
 is noticeable. When the recent
 appreciation of gold and deprecia- tion of silver began, Mexican min ing men at once realized the profit. able nature of gold mining and their peculiarly favorable condition. Mexican legislators gave great con- sessions to corporations and indi- viduals investing in gold mining, the result being a rise in the gold product of Mexico from $1,224,62f in '93 to S4,744 542 in '94; $6,O54,- O78 in '95; $7,584,182 in '96; ancl nearly nine and one half millions last year. Up to and including '94, fur the ten years previous, there was in Mexico an annual average yield of S55, 100000 silver to $1,- 225,000 gold-a ratio of A to 1.
