LAST DAY SPENT in GOING
THROUGH TENNESSEE
AND VIRGINIA.
Travelled More Than $4,000 Miles and
Delivered Over $50 Speeches to
Crowds Estimated to Contain $780,
900 People--Preparing Message to
Congress.

Bristol, Tenn.-IIis second long
swing around the circle practically CON
cluded, President Taft rushed through
Tennessee and Virginia en- route to
Washington. At Bristol, the last sched-
uled stop on the trip from Knoxville,
where he spent Saturday morning, Mr..
Taft was little less than 300 miles
from home. He reached the capital
Sunday. He will take a day or two
of rest before beginning the work of
writing his third annual message to
congress.
The message, friends say, will be one
of the most important he has ever
written.
The presidential train has covered
more than $4,000 miles, and if automo-
bile trips were to be included in the
calculation the mileage would easily
top the 16,OOOmile mark.
The president has delivered close to
$50 speeches, passed through about 30
states and been seen by crowds that
Mr. Hilles estimates at more than
100000 persons.
Saturday the presidents last day on
the road, was given up to eastern Ten
nessee. Knoxville got six hours of the
president IS time, and ON the way to
Bristol he made speeches from the reai
end of his train at five small towns
At Greenville the president caught a
glimpse of the home and the buria
place of Andrew johnson.
Before he boarded his private car il
Knoxville the president called on Mrs
W. G. Brownlow, widow of "Parson
Brownlow one of the famous COVER
nors of Tennessee. Mrs. Brownlow is
% years old, but her mind is alert and
she chatted with Mr.. Taft for severa
minutes. Every president Of the United
States who has visited Knoxville since
the civil war has called at the Brown
low home to pay his respects and Mr.
Taft did not wish to leave until he hat
done so.
For the last dinner on his car tn,
president, Mr. Hilles, Major Butt am
Dr. Thomas L. Rhoades, Mr.. Taft s ply
stefan, who have made the long swing
together, were served with Tennessee
the car by citizens of Johnson City.

MINING NOTES.

Porcupine, Ontario is developing
into a great gold camp.
German mining experts last week in
'pected the Germania mining camp near
Deer Trail, and expressed satisfaction
at the showing of tungsten
The discovery of a second beach line
at Blue City, 60 miles to the eastward
of Nome, has given a new lease of life
to prospecting in Seward peninsula.
During the last week the British Co
lumbia Copper company yreared 10,s07
tons of ore at its Greenwood smeIter.
making a total for the year to date of
$522,545 tons.
The Gold Cube Mining company, nine
miles northwest of Chewelah, Wash,
has encountered an ore body after run
ming a tunnel $50 feet. The four-foot
vein of chalcopyrite ore carries silver
running about $50 to the ton.
What viii eventually be the main
working tunnel of the Stewart mine,
near Kellogg, Idaho, now is in 1900
feet. 1t will be 1000 feet long when it
reaches the main ledge, at added
depth of 500 feet below the present
main working tunnel

of the W.-K. Mining company, who
has just returned from an inspection
of the properties between Madison and

ports the main ore vein has widened
to A inches at the bottom of the shaft,
now down 100 feet.
Recent development of the property

for utilizing electricity for the smet-
ing of zinc ores. He has built an eX-
perimental plant at Butte, in which
by the use of his electric furnace, he
saves % per cent of the mineral con

NORTHWEST GRAIN TO EUROPE
Goes Across Sea Rather Than to Middle
West-Railroad Rates Are
the Cause.


The Pacific Coast states ship their
surplus grain to Europe rather than
to the large markets of the Mississippi
valley, for the freight charges in the
$4,000 mile voyage around South
America are less than the railroad rates
for a haul of some 1000 miles across
the mountains and plains in the United
States. In the first part of 1910, the
cost of sending wheat from Spokane
or Walla Waila to Liverpool, including
railroad rates to Portland Puget
Sound, ocean rates and marine insur-
ance, ranged from 25 10 about 80 cents
bushel, while the rate to Chicago
from Spokane or Walla Walla was 345
cents a bushel.
The Pacific states thus occupy a
unique position in the grain trade of
the United States, and to some ex-
tent in the live stock industry also.
The present status and historic de-
velopment of the grain and live stock
industries of these states are discussed
in recent bulletin issued by the
United States department of agricul-
ture. The publication is entitled omar
keting Grain and Live Stock in the Pa
cific Coast Region.
The total export of wheat (includ
ing flour, reduced to terms of grain)
amounted to 100000 900 bushels a year
from the Pacific coast during 19O6-1O
The development of California s agri
culture along more profitable lines is
one cause of the decline of its wheat
production, and the increasing popula
tion providing a larger home market
reduces still further the surplus for eX
port.
A striking feature of the grain indus
try of the Pacific coast is the relative
prices paid to farmers in regions which
furnish the bulk of the crop. The aver
age farm prices for wheat for two years
ending with June, 1910, ranged from s.
cents a bushel in the valleys of thu
upper Columbia and the Snake rivers
to $L2S for the mountain counties O
eastern California, where but littl
wheat is raised.
Another comparison made in thi
bulletin shows a vast dicerence in tn
cost per ton-mile for transportatin,
wheat by different carriers, all of whicl
share in moving this product to mar
ket 1t costs a Pacific coast farme
an average of 20 to 25 cents per ton
) mile to haul his wheat to the shipping
! point while the freight rate over tn
D route to England by way of Cape Horl
J, is only from .O2 to .O3' of 1 cent pc
D ton-mile. The live stock industry o
the Pacific coast is much older tina
the grain farming, being one of tn
main supports of California for at leas
half a century before the discovery o
] gold in 1898.
u The usual method of buying liv
e stock, at the present time, west of tn
Rocky mountains is direct from tn
stock grower. The purchaser is Ofte
a packer who buys for his own slaugl
:, tering. There is some marketing don
. in public stock yards, notably at Por
