LEAD AND ZINC.
curtaiiment of Output May Stay Drop
in Metal Prices.
Engineering and Mining JournaD

Engineering and Mining JournaD
Some Of the lead producers have at
last read the signs of the times, The
St. Joseph Lead company the largest
individual producer, on October 10, an
nounced curtailment of 25 per cent
in its output This is frankly stated
to be on account of the increasing ae-
icumulation of Its stock of unsold lead,
Desloge, another Missouri producer,
has also curtailed. The chief produc-
ers of the Occur d'Alene had previ-
ously made curtailment estimated to
be equivalent to $500 tons of lead per
month. The Hercules mine of that
district has reduced it's output 80 per
cent and the Morning Is shut down.
There Is also to be a curtailment in
the production of zinc ore, the Butte
& Superior, the largest producer of
ore used for spelter having suspended
production on October II. The rea-
son assigned for this was the necessity
of retimbering the shaft. 1t has been
understood for some time back that
that work would have to be done. Ev-
identity the management decided, cor
rcctly. that the present Is an auspi-
cious time. The news of this CHI ok
ing of the production of zinc ore I'M
mediately had q favorable effect upon

Attend instantly to victims breath
ing. If the victim is not breathing, he
should be given manual artificial res

breathing slowly and regularly, do not
give artificial respiration but let ma
ture restore breathing unaided
In gas cases, give oxygen. If the pa

oxygen, with manual artificial respir-
alton.
The oxygen may be given through a
breathing bag from a cylinder having
a reducing valve, with connecting
tubes and face mask, and with an in
spiratory and an exploratory valve, OF
which the latter communicates direct

BELGIUM AND THE BELGIANs.
Nothing More Pitiful Can Be Found in

The Belgian gray paper" gives the
full text Of Germany's reply on August
70, to Belgium's pathetic and beseech-
/ ing inquiry as to whether Germany
would keep her pledge to respect Bel
GUMS neutralized state-an explicit
and emphatic promise to the same eff
feet having been made by France on
/ the day before.
! Germany replied that she intended
| to break her word. Announcing her
intention to cross Belgium she asked
compensation for all damages done and
supplies taken, and to evacuate Bel
/ gium after the war If Belgium refus-
ed what was euphemistically called
"friendly neutrality" it was declared
that Germany would make war on
/ Belgium, a country against which there
was no semblance of complaint Al
the end Of the general war, if Germany
was successful, it was indicated that
Belgian independence would be ex-
tinguished
The German foreign office, Of course
knew when it made this request that
1t was not for friendly or any other
kind of neutrality--that what it was
asking a neutral country can not give
to a belligerent-help that neutralized
Belgium was specially forbidden t
give. 1t has long been a principle Of
international law that to give transit
to the troops of one belligerent Is
equivalent to a declaration Of wal
against the other belligerent The rult
is reaff1rmed in a Hague treaty, signed
by Germany, which declares: "Bellig
erents are forbidden to move across
the territory of neutral power troop
or conveys, either Of munitions If wa
or supplies"
Belgium as a neutral power cAult
not give a right of way to German,
without giving France just cause f.
, devastating attack. But Belgium a
neutralized power was under 1pecia
obligation to deny right Of way ID a
: countries. The treaty of 1881, reae
: firmed in 1870, which created Relgiur
as a neutralized state, says in lrticl
TO- by just reciprocity Belgium sha
be held to observe this same neutralit
toward all other states"
Yet arguments continue to appear
this country which assume that Bel

Mining In Ceylon Is limited to graph
lite and gem production. Plumbago
exported in 1913 amounted to 2S,997
long tons, against 32,56S tons In 1912
The average price was S1O3 per ton
There were 1885 pits and small peck

mining engineer who spends nearly
all his time in the valuation of mining
properties for large financial interests
recently expressed the belief that the
chief reason why the business Of tinan-
cling mining properties is so duh is be-
cause in nearly every instance mining
properties are submitted to possible
investors under circumstances and on
terms which would not merit NOM
ent's consideration with any other
form of investment. In selling real es-
tate, for example, no one would expect
to gain even a hearing from investors
unless he were able to produce valid
and properly guaranteed title to the
land in question, accurate surveys of
the property, a map showing its eX-
act situation, and set of verifiable
statements as to the reason why the
property is Of value. The title to the
mines offered for sale is all too fire.
of the workings is rarely available,
and any exact records of width stopped,
metal content and amount recovered
from such ore as has been mined are
as rare as snowballs in midsummer,
There comes to mind the case of a
good sized mine which had been pay
ing dividends for some time, but which
did not regularly employ a surveyor,
When II Wac rron0Spd that tbn repant
workings should be mapped it was
found necessary to survey the whole
mine, since the preceding surveyor
had made a very attractive map of the
workings but had not established any
where, in or about the mine, any per-
manent marks to which the survey
could be referred. Needless to say
there were no records of the tonnage
stopped in past years or its assay value
and development work in that district
was frequently guided by the recollec-
tions Of miners who recalled that in
, abandoned workings good punches OF
ore appeared to pitch in this direction
or that The record in the books OF
such a company showing the operating
expenses and the net profit could not
be relied on as an indication Of the
probable value of the mine, since 6
period of good profits might indicate
the mining of rich ore and the expend'
iture of large sums In development
work, or the mining If low grade orr
without doing development work.
Suppose such a property were Of
fered to an investor at a price of $500,
900. No one could decide from an eX
animation of the records whether tn
property was worth 100000, $4,000
4 or $25O,000, and it might easily cost tn
prospective investors $4,000 or more t
j determine the probable value of tn
mine. From the standpoint of the in
\ weston this is exactly like asking hr
q to bet $4,000 to nothing that the valua
Z ton put on the mine by the owner
conservative No bond salesman of

COlored Public School

The first month of the New Year has
wound up very successfully among the little
people of the school. AT the beginning oil
the month several promotions were made
which seem d 10 give the pupil who were
promoted new vigor in the prosecution OF
their new studies. We are looking forward
to more promotions from the eighth to the
ninth at the end of the school term.
The children from the country have not
come into the school in the city in such
large quantities as we were expecting, since
all the county schools were out the Friday
before Christmas and this school is the only
one for colored children in the county
(Which is not very complimentary alter ally;
but the time is now at hand when, if the
colored people would be educated, they
must "put their own shoulders to the
whee". The grand old state of Tennessee
gives her children of color and white the
same chance so far as number of DAYS is
concerned; but some method must be taken
to supplement our free school terms.
1t is a custom in our school to have the
tardy pupils explain their reason for being
late; on one occasion a certain pupil who
had just entered the fourth grade, said he
saw chance to earn money enough to
purchase book on .Hy giene and he showed
his new book with a smile With a compli-
ment, the teacher replied, THAT was
worthy tardy".
AT this season of the year subjects of
simple horticulture and agriculture will be
intro uced as a supplement to the regular
course of study on Friday afternoon. Such
things as the proper preparation OF the soil
and the proper time of planting such COM
mon vegetables as are of household use.
Each child should be encouraged to Guilt
vale a small plot of ground, the girls flowers
and smaller garden plants and the boys
popcorn, roasting-ears, both kinds Of pota-
toes and corn. We could make practical
application along these simple lines of
agriculture had we little more time and
land on which to experiment.
