in Europe, the Souths resources at
100000 100000 tons, while investiga-
cations in the Lake Superior region
continue to open up new and greater
supplies than were Formerly known
in that territory.
There is no likelihood of any short
age in our ore supply, although there is
a certainty of an increasing consump-
ton and an increasing value of ore,
by virtue of our vast expansion in

Monopoly of Cotton Production.
I'VE have a practical monopoly of
the worlds cotton production. For
this, the greatest manufacturing in
dustry on earth excepting iron and
steel, and claimed by European ex-
perts to exceed in the number of peo-
pie employed even iron and steel, the
world must depend on the South for
of its material.
Every year Europe must pay to
this country for. cotton an amount
greater than the total annual output
of all the gold mines of the earth.
I'VE have about five and one-half
per cent of the worlds population and
about six per cent of the worlds land
area; but we have about forty per
cent of the worlds railroad milage;
we are mining one.third of the worlds

smoking doorway into what already
seemed an inferno A momezt later
she staggered out, her hands and
face blackened and blistered and her
clothing on fire. In her arms she bore
her baby, safe from harm.
The afternoon papers came cut with

read it on street cars, and as their
eyes cleaned with the stirring OF the
spirit which leaps to greet noble deeds
they said: THAT woman dared to do
what most men would be afraid to do"
But the mothers who read 1t aE home
did not think that way. Perhaps the
danger to the baby. the wreeking of
the home and the burns the woman
suffered brought moisture - their
