Ore sales.
A Cleveland dispatch Of Saturday
country

A Cleveland dispatch Of Saturday
SAYS.
"Fullnwing the announcement
made of sales of large quantities Of
ore covering deliveries during the
next ten years il was learned yeSler-
day that PickaudS, Nalher & Co. and
the Cleveland Cliffs Iron company
have contracted to deliver total of
1000, 900 annually TO the independent
iron men.
That is but small portion of their
capacity. The fact Lat the future
sales are based on present prices is re-
garded as likely to have IA steadying
effect on The future market.
Another interesting point learned
vest erday is that the United States
Steel corporation has enough ore
mining property to supply all its
needs.
Although the steel corporal ion has
during he past year purchased con-
siderable tonnage OF ore from outside
companies, it was because some Of its
constituents had contracted to do so.
and the corporation merely fulfilled
the contracts.

Wood and Water Supply.

Wood and Water, or in other words,
the forests and streams are today
among the most important OF the
cOuntry's possessions. In the west
they are indispensa BILE, the forests for
lumber and for the protection OF the
water supply, and the streams for the
reclamation of thousands of acres Of
barren and almost useless land
through irrigation. 1t has been estl-
mated that there are $4,000. 600 acres
of so-called arid lands west Of the
Missouri River which with the water
now available. can be made richly
productive aud the seat of large pOpu-
lations. Thus in the west the streams,
even more than the forests. must he
considered of prime inheritance us
home makers. In the east and west
alike. and over all the country. the
streams IRE rising yearly in import
ance for water power. and as towns
and cities increase, for dOmes ic
supply az well. But with the streams
the forests must alwaysss;ai d as pro-
tectors. Tile preservation Of the for
eStS on he mountains aho f'st;if.t>
means the perpetual ion uflhe water
supply. and he security of the water
supply means incalculable develop
ment and benefit for all sections of
the country. The results of the in
vesI igal ions OF the u. :. Geological
Survey. in lis study of the water re-
sources of the country, have repeat
edly demonstrated the increasing
value of the streams. Tie forest :
and the water resources are so CLOSELY
allied that they mlist always stand
side by side in he development Of the
country.
