GYPSUM PR0DUC-
TI0N LARGE
Value af 1911 Output Six and Half
Million Dollars

The quantity ofgypsum mined
in 1911 was 2,323,97O short
tons, valued at $6,462,O35. as
stated by E. F. Burchard, in an
advance chapter On Gypsum"
from "Mineral Resources for
1911" publish by the United
States Geological Survey. This
was a slight decrease from the
figures for 1901 O5 per cent
in production and O.94 per cent
IN value-but while the industry
was not especially active certain
changes, such as the replace.
ment of old mills by a smaller
number of larger modern mills
and the establishment of mixing
plants in commercial centers,
should result, according to Mr..
Burchard, in the saving OF
freight charges ON finished plas-
tiers and enable the products to
be sold to the consumer at low
rates.
Gypsum was produced in II
States and in Alaska from rs
mills. Theimports for 1911 were
considerably reduced.

served from the political caucuses

on foot to exercise woman's rights as
a f~ull-fedged voting citizen. Many of
the ladies representing various colleges
OF the state had slated a ticket for
the summer school officers and had
plans to Garry the ticket
through. SO when the college bell
rang at 2 o'clock, Monday, the fun
began. The mos defiant advocates
of wonan's rights headed the process

the hall as Instructed delegates to car

boys OF the summer school were on
to the run n had organised a band
OF followers to head the opposition to
woman suffrage in the meeting. How
ever, the onslaught of the s%ufragette
eiemen was too great to resist. All
