The growth of the copper industry
in the United States has been notable.
according to the figures Of the United

production was 1,456, 600 pounds; in
1870 it was 2s,225.Ooo pounds; in 1880
1t was 259, 763, 092 pounds; in 1900 1t
had increased to Cox, III ,166 pounds;
in 1905 it was 9o1, 9o7 ,S4S pounds; and
in 1909 it passed the billion mark with
1902, s51,6A pounds, decreasing In
1910, however, to 1850, 169, 500 pounds.
The price has decreased from over
46 cents a pound IN Civil war times
to an average Of 1927 cents pound
in 1910.
