lions OF higher prices for tho metal
The Balkan war and tho prospects Of
a general European conflict months
ago restricted the foreign demand for
the red metal. With tho Improvement
in financial affairs abroad a resump-
ton of buying on large scale is an
ticipatcd.
Supplies OF copper are now so low
hat large producers are unable to
meet the requirements of their reg
uiar customers. and in many Instances
have asked them to make their pur-
chascs from competitors.
Copper companies with mines in the
United States are making hay while
the sun shines. and the Mexican prop
critics are unable to produce. Many of
the mines in the United Statos arc be-
ing operated at capacity. and with 16
cents existing for the metal. they will
report large increases in earnings for
the current year.

A E!G LISSON TAUGHT
BY FLOODS.

The cause Of forest conservation
receiA es Il strUng boost from the dis
astrous floods up in the Ohio valley.
They furnish an impressive object
lesson Of what may happen to q
region stripped of its forests when
long continued rains come and the
natural methods OF filtration have
been destroyed. Here is something
,,,nta, 10 TINS very case written
by student of the subject when q
previous flood was devastating the
Ohio valley ana 1t tells a very plain
and convincing story which the dull
est mind may comprehend:
I'VE have changed the face of Ma
ture and upset her orderly processes
without safeguarding ourselves
against the results Of the change.
Nature covered the watershed of the
Ohio with forests. Rain and melting
snow gradually filtered down into
the streams through the foliage OF
trees and through the humus OF the
forest, In consequence the supply
OF water was comparatively steady ;
both floods and drOughts were few.
Come with me in u rainstorm to
Rocky Mountain watershed, where
all object lesson may be had in mini
allure. Here are two streams-one
rising on a mountain slope where
forest fires have swept away every
living thing; the other on slope
covered by virgin forest.
You shall see torrents rushing
down the bare slope, tearing the sur
face, washing of the soil clear to
the rock, choking up the stream with
debris and filling 1t with flood wa
tiers. After the food has passed the
stream will be a mere trickle among
the rocks.
ION the forested slope you shall
hardly notice the rain because OF the
tree foliage. Examine the leaves and
humus underfoot and you shall find
vt wet for q few inches only. WI
water the forest does not need will
gradually filter its way down TO the
stream. Look at the stream now' No
sign of flood; everything normal.
Yet the slopes that feed these two
streams are almost identical and the
rain is falling on both alike
1.-THE nation that de ,udes it's laai
OF forest must pay the heavy pen
slties which Nature exacts. Conser-
walton Of forests and reforestation
Off the United States-or floods and
droughts, Impoverished soil and riv-
srs choked with debris. Every food
like this on the Ohio gives us addi-
tional warning"
