One field of opportunity in colora-

Be 1t known. however. that Colora-

variety and of all temperatures than

of these have been opened up and

COLORADO MINERAL PRODUCTION

value OF Colorado's output OF gold
silver. copper. lead and zlnc In 1912
was s37 .320. 1866, an increase over 1911
of s4.s02.74s, or is per cent. The pro-
duct;on OF gold showed a decrease OF
a little more than $4,000. despite an
increased production In the Cripple
Creek district OF $4,000. The Grip

given as siI 500. .3e2. or 50 per cent OF
the total gold yield Of the state.

sulphur springs of marked efficacy.
No one needs to go to Germany to
find mineral springs. He may find
them in his own country and Of just
as much value from therapeutic
standpoint as those of any country In
the world.
The difference is in the exploita-
tion. The Europeans make much of
their marvellous mineral waters. They
publish the analysis far and wide;
they persuade people into the belief
that IT is fashionable to drink the
waters; they get the doctors in the
habit OF prescribing a stay at Marien-
bad. or Bad Nauheim. or vichy, or
the various other resorts until the
country has become wealthy through
the influx OF tourists.
Colorado has all these mineral
springs and more. too. We have them
in every variety. What they need Is
exploi,ation-to tell the world what
We have and persuade the people to
come and enjoy them.

are anywhere near exhausted-on the
contrary. the sound Judgment of the
best informed mining men Is that the
surface has scarcely been scratched.
But the mining industry Is dull be-
cause no important new camps have
been opened in recent years. and there
has been a consequent lack OF the ex-
citement which stimulates interest and
sends thousands of men out prospect-
ing in the hills.
There Is Just as much chance OF
somebody discovering n new Cripple
Greek district now as there was twen-
ty years ago when the event actually
occurred. and It might happen in Just
as unexpected a place. Colorado has
already produced more gold and NOR"
silver than any other state In tie
Union. and the Cripple Greek ristric;
still has the proud distinction Of hav-
Ing supplied more gold taan any other
spot OF equal area in thu world. a
revival of Interest In mining might
not produce another Cripple Creek,
but It would undoubtedly greatly stim-
uiste the production OF precious met
ais throughout the state.
