SOME POINTERS FOR
RURAL ROUTE PATRONS

In distinct violation of postal regula-
tons, many rural patrons insist upon
placing loose change, for stamps
or parcel post charges, in mail boxes.
According to the ruling, carriers
should leave money, when not properly
wrapped or placed in an envelope, in
the boxes. Aside from the legal point
OF view, there is the difficulty which is
caused the carrier when he is forced to
pick up loose money, and the loss of
time ACQUIRING from such a practice.
This in itself should be sufficient to
make the patrons careful in the future
to have the money securely wrapped
or enveloped in one compact package.
Another thing which will bear en-
phasis at this season of the year is the
fact that, in order to have mail deliver
ed or collected, rural patrons must
keep clear road to the mail boxes.
The carrier is not required to leave his
vehicle and where the road is in such
condition as to make the box inaccess-
ible he may drive on without stopping
for either collection or delivery.

SPEAK A GOOD WORD
FOR YOUR TOWN

In bringing community to the front
1t is necessary to have few who are
imbued with the true spirit of progress
men who are not afraid to do work
without the hope of remuneration. and
who understand the game Of setting of
local advantages in such a manner as
to attract attention and convince the
ones whom they are trying TO reach.
No section of the country ever made
headway that was populated with a
class of people who never spoke a
good word for their locality unless they
saw some pecuniary inducement. It
is the spirit of local patriotism that
brings out the best in the individual
and makes him booster for his own
community. All men are not commu-
nifty builders, but everybody can do
something to help the work along when
a chance is offered by speaking a good
word for the place where they live.
Finding fault with your home town is
poor policy, for it is not only demoral-
izing to the town but puts Il fault
finder in a ridiculous light before
strangers. When a stranger hears
resident running down his own town
the naturally infers that there is some
thing lacking in the faultfinder. He
at once assumes that he is either
poor citizen or else has chronic case
of dyspepsia. While it is not possible
to have all in town leaders in develop
ment, it is possible to make good fol-
lowers out of the rank and file of resi-
dents, if they are possessed of the real
community spirit. What every town
needs is population that will pull to-
gether for the common good and always
speak good word, both in and out of
season for the place that is furnishing
them living.

MINERAL PRODUCTION
is SS0,000,000
Michigan Stands Sixth IN The
Value of Its Mineral Outputs.

Michigan is sixth among the states of
the Union in the value of its mineral
production. 1t owes its prominence
to its great wealth in two metals, cop
per and iron. In the production of iron
ore in 1912, according to the figures
compiled by E. w. Parker, of the
United States Geological Survey, in CO.
operation with the Michigan State Sur
vey, it ranked second, and in the pro.
duction of copper it was third Among
the less important branches of tn e
mining industry it ranks first in the
production of salt, bromine, calcium,
chloride, graphite, and sandlime brick,
second in the production of grind
stones, and fourth in the production of
gypsum. In 1910, the total value of the
production considered, the mining of
iron ore was the leading industry in
Michigan, but in 1911 and 1912 the val
ue of the recoverable metal lie content
of the copper ores produced in Michi-
gan exceeded the value of the iron ore
mined. In 1912 the production of iron
ore amounted to 12,797, 46S long tons,
valued at 500, ,O33, 163 ana the copper
production to 2lS, 1873, 40S pounds, val
ued at $35, ,922, ,S37. The total mine pro-
duction of copper in the United States
in 1912 was 1,249,094,S9l pounds of
which Michigan contributed 2l8, 1873, 40S
pounds, or II per cent.
The mining of copper in Michigan is
of prehistoric origin, the metal having
been used by the North American In
dians before the advent of the white
man. The total production of copper
in Michigan from the earliest records
has been $500, ,OOO, 900 pounds, or about
80 per cent of the total output of the
United States.
Michigan stands well up among the
states in the manufacture of cement,
producing 3, 494, ,62l barrels in 1912. The
salt production of the state exclusive
of rock salt amounted to 1921, 715
barrels valued at 81, 743,3S The value
Of Michigan's clay products increased
about % per cent, from s2,0S3, 932 in
1911 to 81, 545, 49S in 1912. The mining
and calcining of gypsum is also an in
dustry of considerable importance and
production increased from 347, ,296
short tons, valued at $573, 926, in 1911
to 3S4, 297 short tons, valued at $62l,-
SAT, in 1912.
Other important industries are the
quarrying of stone and the production
of sand and gravel, lime, ganiferour
ore, mineral paints, mineral waters,
natural gas, petroleum, quartz, and
scythestones. The total value Of the
mineral products in Michigan in 1912
was $4,000, ,4S6, against $65, ,275, 324 in
1911.

What to Give

For Christmas present is often a
hard problem. Its easy solution is
found in visiting the stores while stocks
are complete and while clerks have
time to wait on you properly. IF you
wait until the last minute, the last day
or even the last week you will encoun-
ter crowds that make shopping un-
pleasant, the proper selection of goods
impossible and clerks who are tired
and perhaps cross.
