CONSERVATION OF OUR
 NATURAL ICE BUSINESS.
{By M. J. Rosenau, Professor of Pre- ventive Medicine and Hygiene,
 Harvard Medical School)

V6nLnV6i McQlCluO anu f1ySlGuG,
 Harvard Medical School)
 The business of supplying ice has become a public service. because ice has become a necessity of modern civ ilization. It saves babies lives, it keeps our food fresh, it protects our health, and is a source of comfort to all of us in one way or another the year.
 The only way to satisfy sanitary re- Quirements is to furnish ice that looks clean and is clean. This means in the first place that it should be har- vested from water that you would not hesitate to drink.
 Bacteria, however, that are caught in the ice have hard time of it. Most of them soon die and the survivors perish gradually with time. They do not remain alive very long in ice. Natural ice is usually stored for weeks and even months before it is used. That fact is of great added protection We now know that storage is one of the best means of purifying water and the same applies, with even greater force, to ice. The combined effects of freezing and storage, then, are two great sanitary safeguards that makes natural ice one of the few raw foods that are not regarded with much sus- picion by the sanitarian.

Students Of B. H. s.
 And Their Doings

The April meeting of the Criterion board was held yesterday after school in Room 13 The entire board was present and was congratulated for this reason by Principal Simonds. It was decided to extend the time for the art contest for another week until May S. The names of the prize win ners of this contest will be published in the next Criterion, to be out on May 29. The board then decided to appoint committee to make arrange ments for a Criterion board group pic ture and also to speak to the Senior class concerning the printing of the pictures of the entire graduating class in the Commencement Issue. Those selected were Harold Adams, Charles Brody, and George Lebenthal. The meeting was then adjourned.
 There is much rejoicing at the school because of the unexpected victory of the baseball team over the team of Taft School Not within the memory of any of the players or of the in- structors can victory over the strong team from Watertown be remembered. The same team which defeated Taft School is to play Greenwich High School at Newfield Park tomorrow afternoon Tickets may be secured from almost any member of the school.

Mr.. Morales speaks good English

that he was Of the opinion that the

ARIZONA LEADS IN
COPPER PRODUCTION
Advance Statement of Final
Figures by u. S. for
the Past Year

The United States geological sur
ivey has just issued an advanced
statement of the production of cop
per in 1911. This statement, prepar.
ed by B. S. Butler, gives the final
Figures Of production IS made up
from reports from all the reduction
Iplants The preliminary estimate OF
the smelter output of the country.
| issued by the geological survey jan
uary 2, 1912, differed from the final
figures by but fraction of one per
cent.
The total smelter production from
ores mined in the United States was
,O97 ,232. l49 pounds. This is the larg
est production in the history of the
| industry and compares favOrably
with the output Of l,0S0,159,5O9
| pounds for 1910.
Arizona again heads the list OF cop
| per producing states with a produc-
ton Of 303, 202,532 pounds, the largest
production made by the state. Mon
tana is second, with 27l,S14,49l
pounds; Michigan third, with 2lS,1SJ,-
226 pounds; and Utah fourth, with
l42 ,34O.2l5 pounds.
i9C w rNldSNds
The most notable gains were made
by Alaska and Utah, the production
of Alaska increasing from 4.3l1 ,026
pounds in 1910 TO 23.314,SS9 pounds
in 1911, ana that Of Utah from 1885,
1S5,f55 pounds in 1910 20 l42,34O,215
pounds in 1871.
The states showing the most mark
ed falling off in output were Califor,
mia and Montana. The former de-
creased from $3.50 200 pounds in
1910 to 35.S35.65l pounds in 1911,
and the latter from S3,07S,47
pounds in 1910 TO 271,SI4,4g1 pounds
in 1911. In California the decrease
was due to difficulty in controlling
smelter fumes: in Montana it was
caused by voluntary curtailment due
to the condition of the copper mar
ket
The total production of refined cop.
per from primary sources, both do
nestle and foreign, was l,I33, SIS, 1925
pounds in 1911, compared with 1922
O39, 1855 pounds in 1910.
In addition TO the copper produced
from ore a total Of 21i,OOO,000 pounds
was recovered by the treatment OF
old copper and brass, copper and
brass scraps, filings, clippings, etc.
The consumption of copper in the
, United States for 1911 was apparently
somewhat smaller than in the prev
ious year. but the amount exported
was considerably greater, so that the
stocks Of refined copper held in
the United States we're materially
reduced.
