production of coal In Colorado in 1908.
according to e. w. Parker. Of the
United States geological survey.
amounted to 9.634.s73 short tons. hav-
ing a spot value OF S13.5s6.sss. a de-
crease. as compared with the output
In 1907, OF 1,155.263 short tons. or
1911 per cent. in quantity, and OF
31.4S2.461. or $50 per cent In value.
This IL the second time in fifteen
years that the coal production Of the
state for any year has shown a de-
crease os compared with that OF the
preceding year.
Men Enployed.
The total numbre OF men employed
In the coal mines OF Colorado In 1908
was 1883. and the average number
Of days worked by each was 212: the
number OF men employed in 1907 was
14.223. working for an average period
OF 25s days. These figures indicate
that the supply OF labor was greater
that the working time was materially
reduced. The average production per
man for the year was also reduced. al
though the daily output for each man
employed increased. In 1907 the aver
age production for each man employ
ed was 759 short tons; in 1908 II was
662 tons. The average production per
day per man was 313 tons In 1908. as
compared with 2.94 tons In 1907.
Working Hours.
Most of the larger mines OF Colo
rado are operated on the basis of a
ten-hour day. In 1905 there were 81
mines. employing S.535 men. that
worked ten hours: 7s mines. employ
ing 5.l5s men. that worked eight

Of legislation % this kind Is pro-

Of this all-perVading foe to human

There Is, too, the broad human

demands that those stricken with

FOR YOUR HEALTH's SAKE
PREVENTION.

Typhoid is cIassed among the
preventable diseases. And yet
not long ago in certain eastern
city there were 1874 cases Of this
terrible disease In two wards
alone, and 5,637 cases during the
year for the entire city. The e.
timated money cost Of the 1874
cases In the two wards, including
loss Of wages, medical, hospital,
and funeral expenses, amounted
TO nearly $4,000.
The moral Is, II pays to spend
money for prevention.
