A STATE BOARD OF COMMERCE.

The movement among the business
njen OF North Carolina for a State
Board Of Trade, or State Board Of
Commerce, is one that deserves COM
m~endation, for it is a movement which
IS being made for the interests Of the
State.
Such an organization can ind a
wide field of work in North Carolina,
and if conducted along the right lines
will prove Of value to the State. The
truth is that when the various COM
mercial interests OF the State, and its
various commercial enterprises, are
brought into closer knowledge with
each other then things can be done
which Will be highly beneficial both
for them and for the people.
The commercial interests of North
Carolina are expanding wonderfully
and the State has reason to congratu-
late itself on the general high stand
ing Of North Carolina commercial en-
terpriSes in the business world.
Throughout the State there are men
Of enterprise and progreSsiveneSs In
commercial life, the position of this
body Of people in North Carolina be-
ing equal to that Of the highest in the
nation.
That the organization of a State
Board of Commerce will prove Of
value to the State and it's increasing
business interests is certain, and it de-
serves the full support of all CONNER
cal and trade bodies and Of all bust
ness men. Standing as a unit for the
best principles they can accomplish
things which would be impossible with
individual effort, The organization
should become one with a membership
Of representative men in commercial
life from all parts of the State.

RICHES FROM THE WEST.

Nearly third of billion dollars
was added to the wealth of the Unit
ed States from the mineral produce
ton Of the western states during
1910, according to the figures of the
United States geological survey.
This includes about $66,0OO,O0O
worth of coal, the remaining produce
ton, principally metals having a
value of practically quarter of
billion dollars. The total figures of
western mineral production as COM
piled by the survey are $313,944,881.
This is about one-fourth the total
agricultural production of the same
area, the proportion between min
eral and agricultural production be-
ing about the same as for the entire
United States. The agricultural
production of the western states, de-
rived from figures of the department
of agriculture, was approximately
$1,394,791,O00 The area consid.
cred includes the belt from the Da-
kotas south to Texas and the terri.
tory westward.
