home office on the mineral produc-
tion OF the world shows that the
United States stands second to the
British empire in the production of
gold, but far ahead in the produc.
tion OF silver. copper and lead. In
copper our superiority is the greatest
more than one-half OF the worlds en-
tire supply coming from mines in the
United States. This country alsc
stands first in the amount of coal pro
