according to preliminary estimates of "

In 1913 the metal mine output Of Idaho
was so much increased that the total
value exceeded that of the record year.
1906, according to preliminary estimates
OF c. n. Gerry of the United States
geological survey. The value OF the
gold. silver. copper. lead and zinc mine
production was over S23, 500 600, an in
crease OF over s2.0oO.O0o, or nearly 10
per cent Record productions were made
In silver. lead and zinc. and substantial
increases were made In output of all
metals but gold. which remained close
to the yield OF 1912, the figures for 1913
being $l,373.0 900. The gold yield from
quartz mines, especially the De Lamar
mine. which was closed in the last part
OF the year, continued to decrease. To
compensate for this loss, the gold out
put from dredging continued To lncrca Sc
and that from copper ore was creator
since the Lost Packer smelter was op-
Grated.
The mine yield OF silver output in
creased 20 per cent. from S,294, ,745 ounces
In 1912 TO about 100000 ounces in 1918,
largo increase even over the previous
record output of 1906. In silver output
the state, which in 1918 had value Of
nearly $4,000. 600. was only exceeded by
Nevada, Utah and Montana. Nearly all
this silver was derived from lead ore
and concentrate, shipments of which
We're unusually large Another feature
which accounted for this record output
was the large production from the Green
hill Cleveland mine near Mace and the
OF Lelande district are notable for high
silver content

ARSENIC PRODUCT OF
THE BIC SHELTERS

The output of arsenic In the United
States during 1913 was all in the form OF
white arsenic or arsenous oxide, COM
monty known as arsenic" and amount
ed 10 about 1916 short tons. valued L
S142340, against 31i1 tons, valued at
$780, in 1872 a decrease Of 786 tons
in quantity and SIS,il7 I'm value, accord =
ing to the preliminary figures collected
by Frank l.. Hess OF the United States
geological survey.
AS in 1919 white arsenic was pro-
duccd in this country only from smelter
fiue or playhouse dusts and by the same
ceding year. The Anaconda Copper com
pany saved white arsenic from fumes
made in smelling Butte copper ores at
the great Washoc smelter at Anacond
Mont. At Midvale. Utah, the United
states Smelling company sublimed white
arsenic from playhouse dusts collected In
smelling Tlntlc and other Utah copper
ores. The American Smelling & Rein
ing company saved its output from fiue
dusts made from both domestic and for
eign ores.
There is so little direct prof In the
manufacture of white arsenic owing
largely TO the long distances it must be
shipped TO market, that the smelling
companies make II only because they
must prevent its escape Into the atmos-
pbere II the demand and prices justi-
fed O larger output the production could
be greatly increased.
Arsenic is used principally as an In
secticlde for spraying fruit trees: In the
manufacture OF glass. especially plate
glass. and for destroying weeds. one rail-
read alone using several hundred tons a
year for this purpose.

Copper Output Grows.

An Increase estimated at 2 per cent
In the mine production Of copper, from
S6r47I,494 pounds in 1912 to about SS,-
S6S.s90 pounds In 1913, is due to a slight
increase In the output of the Nevada
Consolidated and Giroux mines from cop
per 'porphyries" al Ely and In a larger
output OF copper matte at the Thomp-
son smelter from Mason Valley. Nevada
Douglas and custom ores. Shipments Of
copper ore were made from the Pyra mid
lake region In Washoe county since
transportation reached the district
The lead mine output decreased from
19,500. 100 pounds in 1912 TO $1,000 900
pounds in 1913, or about u per cent. This
decrease is largely due 10 the falling off
OF shipments from the Bullionville tail
ing dump near Phoebe. The Yellow Pine
district in Clark county had It's usual out
put OF about 6.500,000 pounds. The lead
mines in Eureka county did not all re-
sumo work, but the production OF lead
was greater than foT several years
The output of recoverab spelter from
zine ores sold or treated Increased from
lS,s22.9SS pounds In 1912 to 1917. 900
pounds In 1913, or about - per cent

The coal output for the state of

The production OF coke is 914.d94

The main factors responsible for the
decrease OF the coke output was the
disastrous fire which occurred at

bridge and coal crushing plant OF the
Utah Fuel company was burned, en-
failing a loss TO the company OF some
