The WastefuI Americans.

Attention Il directed to an article
printed on another page detailing
the losses in minerals which result
annually through carelessness, in
difference or ignoranceof the people
Of the United States. The rapid
and enormous expansion Of this
country behooyes the people to have
d care about the wastefulness Of their
resources Of all kinds. Population
is fast outstrlpping the increase in
production Of every class Of food
stuffs, minerals and other articles Of
necessity in everyday life.
According to the article referred
to we waste annually
A quarter Of billion tons Of coal;
More natural gas than the total
output Of artificial gas companies;
Nearly 80 per cent. OF the<energy
Of the coal that is mined;
More than 100000 tons Of
coal through boiler scale in locomo-
tiyes;
More than $40, 900, oo0of by-pro-
ducts in the making Of coke by the
old-fashioned process;
In addition to losses in the min
ing and concentration Of zinc ores,
there are incaleulable losses, which
without question run into many mil
lions Of dollars and undoubtedly ex-
coed the total value Of the zinc
mined, in slags and waste products
from other sources:
Our wastes Of nitrogen are almost
inconceiyable and no calculation can
give an idea what these losses mean;
The total amount Of sulphur dis
charged in the air from smelters
would make more than 5000. 600
tons Of sulphuric acid. Macon
