OVER TWO BILLIONS OF MINERAL
PRODUCED LAST YEAR IN THE j. S

All records have been broken in
the great mineral production Of the
United States for the year 1912. The
boom year of 1907 has heretofore
been considered the banner year Of
American mineral output with total
value Of S2O72, ,639, but even this
great figure was exceeded in 1912 by
over $170.OO0,0OO AS compared with
1911 the increase in 1912 in $780,
09S,198, or 1910 per cent. These fig
ures are shown in a summary of the
mineral production Of the United
States for 1912, compiled by W. T.
Thorn, of the United States geological
survey, now in press.
AS heretofore, iron and coal are
the most important Of our mineral
products. The value of iron (pig iron
being the basis of yaluation) in 1912
was s42O,56S,S8s; the value of coal
was 695,6O6.O71. The value Of the
fuels--coal, natural gas and petro
leum- increased from S35,231, 497 in
1911 to S949,s72, 1862 in 1912. a gain oil
$1OS.74O,S65. Coal showed an increase
in value of $69,O4O,S6O, from $626,
565,211 in 1911 to $695,606O7l il
1912.
The production of metals increased
in value $1S6,571,3OS, from $6SO,531,
1872 in 1911 to $S67lOS,oS5 in 1912
The nonmetals increased $l29, 276,S95

HALF HOLIDAY
ASREWARDFOR
PUNCTUAL|TY
NEW SYSTEM DESIGNED TO PRO
MOTE REGULAR SCHOOL
ATTENDANCE.

A plan designed to lessen hardness
and to promote a sense of the re-
sponsibility of the Individual toward
his fellow pupils is now being tried
in the public schools The same plan
has been used with marked success
elsewhere in Nevada, and although |
the third school month is as yet only |
half gone some gratifying results are /
already apparent. The scheme is this;
AT the end of every four weeks each |
teacher adds together the number of
cases of hardness and unexcused alb.
senees that have occurred among her
pupils during the month and from
these figures finds the percentage of
promptness and attendance. The pu-
pills in any room that has had an
average of 81 per cent will be grant
ed half-holiday on the following
Friday
The children at once showed
great interest in the plan and a
healthy rivalry between rooms sprung
up. 1t is hoped that one of the chief
benefits will be the development in
the pupils of sense of duty toward
their classmates when they realize
that one pupil can, by earelessness or
truancy, spoil the chances of whole
grade for securing a half-holiday. In
most cases it is habitual hardness
that keeps the average down.
large part of it is needless. Thus far
this fall there has been no case OF
truancy reported from any room to
the superintendent. Under this new
plan each scholar is subject to the
force of public sentiment on the part
, of the other pupils for coming late
Absences for which parents sent
written excuses do not count against
the room in the percentage Unex
cused absences are counted as tru
ancy While some cases of hardness
are in no way the fault of the schol
ar, the majority are the result o
lettering on the way to school, ant
so all hardness will be counted alilo
against the percentage. 1t has beei
thought best, for the present not L
include the Kindergarten or higl
school in the plan.
