COLO. COKE OUTPUT
STRIKE AFFECTED PRODUCTION
DURING PAST YEAR.
Output In 1918 Was s7e,461 Tons,
Valued at s2,S15,134, According to
U. S. Geological Survey Report.
Western Newspaper Union Nows Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver.-The output of coke in
Colorado in 1913 was S79.461 tons.
valued at s2.Sl5.13i. according to Il.
w. Parker of the United States Geo
logical Survey of Washington. The
decrease as compared with 1912,
amounting to 93.4SO tons in quantity
and $22S,S6O in value, was due entirely
to labor troubles among the miners,
and not to adverse trade conditions.
The principal disturbances were in
Las Animas county, the leading coal
producing and coke-making county.
and resulted In decrease in coal pro-
duction of nearly million tons and
in the whole of the decrease in the
output of coke.
There are fifteen coke-making es.
Establishments in Colorado, which oper'
ate 3,5SS ovens, all of the beehive
type. Six of the establishments, oper
ating 72G ovens, were idle throughout
the year In addition to these idle
plants, $50 ovens were idle at plants
that made some coke In 1918, so that
the total number of idle ovens was
1,706, representing nearly half the
coking capacity of the state No new
ovens were under construction at the
end of the year.
According to returns made TO the
Geological Survey, the average value
of Colorado coke advanced from s3,13
ton in 1912 to 1920 in 1913. In 1911
the average was $3.50. These fluc-
tuations are, however. more apparent
than real. A large proportion of the
coke produced in Colorado is made in
ovens which are parts of plants, in
cluding in their operations coal min
ing, coke making and the manufacture
of iron and steel, or the smelling and
refining of the precious and base met
ais. For such plants the placing of n
value on the coke produced is an ar
bitrary matter and does not represent
market prices. Only about thirty per
cent of the total output of Colorado in
1918 was commercial coke.

Denver.-Colorado is on the eve OF
the greatest agricultural harvest in
its history. Crop conditions are al
most ten per cent better than they
have averaged for the past ten-year
period, which included number or
