WE DRINK MINERAL WATER.
Great Amount of the Natural and Ar
fifciaI Product Consumed.
New York Commercial.

New YORK commercial.
The growth of the artificial and mineral
water Industries OF the United States the
past two decades has been phenomenal, and
to-day these allied lines of trade represent
many hundreds of thousands of dollars in
capital invested. plants. labor and sales. At
first they met with very little encourage
ment from the public, but with the lapse of
time the waters that once, and not so very
long ago, either. were considered luxuries
only within reach OF the wealthy are now
almost universally regarded as necessities.
The production OF mineral waters is, ac
cording TO official government reports, con-
tinually on the increase. while more springs
are being utilized than two years ago. Ac-
companying the increased production there
has been a corresponding increase in the
value of the waters sold.
The total number of mineral springs in
the United States is estimated by David T.
Day. chief of the division of mining and
mineral resources, at 659 the output of
which in 1901 amounted to 55,7T1.1SS gallons,
the gain in p pro lGs over TRe previous
price per gallon at the time of the last re-
port was about 1876 cents per gallon as COM
parerd with 125 cents in 1900.
Including the estimated figures fer the
mineral springs making no report 10 the
government. the value of the spring water
production annually is figured at S,5S6,962
ceeding that of 1900 by S1,341, 1O9.
Comparing the mineral water production
geographically the New England states
show the greatest gain in the number of
springs and the greatest gain In produc-
ton and valuation. A recent report shows
