1909 was 200,425 TASKS of seventy
five pounds each, valued at the
average New York price in 1909
$46.17 per flask--at $943,022.
The figures represent exactly the
production for the first eleven
months of 1909, plus the estimated
production for December.
The production by states shows a
decrease in California from 1894
TASKS in 1908 to 1900 TASKS in
1909; an increase in Texas from
1882 TASKS in 1908 to 1926 TASKS
in 1909; and an increase in COM
bined output from Nevada and Ore
gon from 346 TASKS in 1908 to 500
TASKS in 1909. In 1909, for the
first time in many years, there was
a small production in Nevada, but
no production was reported from
either Arizona or Utah.
