COPPER FIGURES As
INDEX To OUTPUT
Attention Called to Difference
Between Mine and Re-
finery Production.

One OF the most sincere doubters of the
reliability OF the monthly statistics OF
the American Copper Producers associa-
tion is the Engineering g. Mining Journal
which calls attention to their failure from
month to month TO serve as an index OF
copper production. The figures OF pro-
duction. says the Journal, so up when
they ought to and the other way when
they should, because OF conditions that
are inherent in the business. The Journal
gives the following statistics OF 1912 cop
per production by refnerS, smclters and
mines. with the following comment.

Utah a Big Loser.

Many Utah producers under existing
conditions find that their shipments OF
zinc ore are worth about 81 per ton
less than they were In 1912, or $3.50 for
each fifty-ton carlot, a difference that
spells the space between profit and loss,
between remunerative activity and un-
happy idleness. On top Of this comes
The likelihood that congress will put zinc

The Village Green.

Congratulations to the good old town
of Weston which proposes to make the
preservation and beautifying of its town
common the chief feature of its bi-cen-
tennial celebration in June. Parades and
pageants, oratory and fireworks are all
very we'll on such occasions, but when
the day has passed they leave little be-
hind them but echoes. ashes and tinsel.
A town common or village green is the
traditional inheritance of every New
England community from Boston to the
least on the list. In hundreds of New
England country towns-as, for example,
in Lexington, which is prominently in
the public mind this week-they are
happily but little changed by the CEN
turtles. In hundreds of other places, bus
mess has overrun them; they have been
cut up into lots for houses or stores and
the community has lost something that
il can never win back.
To guard against this loss, Weston is
to spend $4,000 in making its historic
common a spot that coming generations
will cherish. no matter how large the
growth of the town or how great its in
dustrial development. II is a good ex
