SHOWS THE PROPORTION
OF THE PEOPLES INCOME
Two-Thirds Of Net Earnings to
Labor, one-Third to Capital,
Civic Federation Asserts.

NEW YORK, June 2S.-A committee
on the division Of the peoples income
appointed by the National Civic Fedora
ton in a report today asserted that
two-thirds of the net earnings from
manufac tures go to wage earners. while
one-third goes to capital. Out OF TINS
one-third, the report states, the capi-
taIists must provide for depreciation.
The members of the committee were
W. J. Pape of Waterbury, Conn; Prof.
John B. Clark of Columbia University
and the Rev. John A. Ryan of st. Pauis
Seminary, st. Paul. MINI.
Extract From Report.
The report says:
1.-THE trap into which SO many who
undertake to reason from the census
haven fallen lies in the hasty assump-
zion that the gross product of manu-
featuring industries is the measure OF
the wealth produced.
From the s2.420. the average value
of each workers annual output, must
be deducted 1885 for materials. leaH-
ing S1.025 to represent the added value
given raw. materials III MA
ing
After capital has paid taxes, rents,
ROYALTIES. insurance and similar
charges, the committee said. there re-
mains $3.50 to be divided between owner
and employe, of which labor gets $500,
or 6S. per cent. while capital gets $2ss.
or 33.S per cent.

After he had eaten supper 10 filled
his pipe and smoked in silence. This
wasn't altogether unusual. 1t usually
takes about two years to fade the
rose romance of marriage. 10 and
Jenny had been married eight. There
had been two children who had died.
Neither time nor these deaths had
helped Jenny keep her first freshness
And even when love and youth had
been hers she had not been pretty.
Now, at twenty-eight, she was almost
ugly.
For week she had been canning
fruit. doing fine laundry for a woman
in the better part of town and helping
clean house for another woman 10
wages at the factory had been strained
to meet the expenses of the two tuner

Jenny. Moreover. they were paying for
the cottage. Too much skimplng ana
hard work had left traces in nerves,

great part of the time, and tonight she
was crosser than usual. Her mar was
disheveled. her dress soiled. her hands

Bumpy, Frumpy and Grumpy
Have a New Home.
Every road must trrn or end:
Every night give way TO light.
Just as surely you will find
Hone ia bound 10 follow fright.


1t is so because it has to be so. And
it is good that it is SO. 1t was SO with
Bumpy, Frumpy and Grumpy. the three
little Possunns caught by Farmer
Browns boy. At first they just gave
up. They were so frightened that they
just ached all over with fear. They
were sure that this was the end of
everything, and that this terrible two
legged creature would surely kill them.
Then how they did wish that they
never. never had listened to the voice
of the Great World and run away from
home.
Frumpy was tied up in big hand
kerchief so, of course, he could see
nothing. He just knew that he was be-
ing carried somewhere, and he didn't
want to get to the end of the journey
No. sir. he didn't. You see he was
afraid of what would happen when he
got there. Bumpy and Grumpy swung
by their tails from one hand of Farmer
Browns boy. At first they kept their
eyes tightly closed. But after a little
they opened them just enough to peep
out. They were being carried up the
Lone Little Path through the Green
Forest, and it wasn't any time at all
before they were in part of it they
had never seen before. Once in a while
Farmer Browns boy would lift them
up to look at them. Then they closed
their eyes tightly just as If they really
were dead. Farmer Browns boy would
smile. He knew perfectly well that
they were only pretending.
BY and by they left the Lone Little
Path through the Green Forest for the
Crooked Little Path across the Green
Meadows This was all very new and
wonderful to Bumpy and Grumpy You
see they had always lived among the
trees and they hadn't dreamed of such
a great place without any trees and
covered with green grass. Surely this
was one of the wonders of the Great
World! But how could any bne be safe
there without trees to climb?
After the Green Meadows came the
Old Orchard. Those old apple trees
looked very. very interesting indeed
They longed to climb them, they were
so different from the trees of the Green
Forest. They made up their minds that
they would il ever they got away from
this terrible creature who was carry
ing them by their tails. And at this
reminder of what had happened to
them they grew all cold with fear
again. What would the terrible crea-
ture do with them when he reached the
end of the journey? Would he eat
them:
Out of the Old Orchard into Farmer
Browns dooryard they were carried, and
this was the strangest place of all.
You see they never had had even
barn before. They forgot that they
were playing dead and opened their
eyes wide. Farmer Browns boy hap
pened to glance down and saw this. He
chuckled right out and at the sound
of his voice the little Possums closed

civil war and asserted this country
never hsd been ready, although always
successful when war had broken out.
You are the ones to arouse the peo-
ple," Commander Palmer said. Il do
not want this country to go to war any
more than the millions of her patriotic
citizens do. but we should prepare in
order to defend ourselves in case Of at
tack-and you are the men to arouse
the people. You all suffered through
the lack of preparedness during our
civil war, and it is your duty to your
country and to your fellowmen to use
every effort to advance the cause of
preparedness now.

SURVEY NOTES America's Mineral Products.

The mineral products of the United Statesare discussed in a small vol ume now heinz distributed by the United States Geological Survey, which contains fund of useful in formation concerning the useful min erals and their values and production in alt the States during 1912 and 19l3. The figures given in some of the tables are so stupendous as to be beyond comprehension. In one table are given the figures for mineral pro- duction from 1880 to 1913 the metals being valued at s1S5, ,0O0,00O in 1880 and increasing to $Ss3.000.000 in 1913. The non-metallic minerals in- creased from s173,000.0 .06O in 1880 to s1.562 900 900 in 1913, and the total mineral production from s365, ,000, 900 to S2,446.000, ,O00 This total for 1913 was an increase over 1912 of more than S20o,000.O0O The value of the metals imported for consumption in 1913 was s237.000,000 and of those exported sS19.o00,o0O. The value of the total mineral production from 1880 to 1913, inclusive was S35, 97,- 0OG000.
 These hugse figures are of general interest. but the chief value of the volume lies in the figures and discus sion of the increased Or decreased production of each state during recent years. Seventy principal minerals are discussed in the pamphlet. entitled Mineral Products of the United States in 1912 and 1913"

le oils about 1878 or 1880. According to David Wesson it came to be used for this purpose through investigations un- dertaken on account of statement that reached N. K. Fairbanks X Co.,, of Chicago, to the effect that in the orient olive oil was sometimes improved in color by agitating if with clay. Nari- ous samples of clay were tried with cottonseed oil and the clay then used for fulling cloth in England gave much better results than any other clay that the company was able to obtain.
 In 1891 fuller's earth was discovero in Arkansas by John olson, who still mines earth near Benton. Ark. In 1893 fullers earth was discovered at Quincy, Fla, which proved to be especially ap- | plicable to the bleaching of petroleum. The deposit near Quincy, together with | others in the neighboring parts of Flor ida and southwestern Georgia, have from that time furnished all of the full 1 ,er's earth used in the refining of min eral oils in this country. The Florida earths have. however, never been eX- l tensively applied to the bleaching of i fats and vegetable oils. The Arkansas earth is used wholly for edible oils.
 Since the discovery of the Florida earths many others deposit of clays with marked bleaching power have beeG. found in other states.
 Definition of FulIer's Earth
 | F'uler's earth IS a variety of clay that has high capacity for absorbing basic colors and can remove these eolors ] from solution in animal, vegetable, or mineral oils, as well as from some other
 liquids, especially water. It is valuable when its absorptive powers are strong enough to permit it to compete actively ] with fuiler's searth already accepted as of standsrd quality for refining oils.
 Chemical Composition of Fuler's Earth
 Analyses of various samples of full
 ler's earth vary so greatly that chem l ical analyses are now well understood to be no criterion whatever in determ- inging whether or not particular clay shall be classified as d fuller's earth
 Like all other clays, fuller's earth is a | hydrouS. aluminium silicate containing small proportions of other substances Most fuller's earthS contain d higher | percentage of water oI composition | than most clays, but this water is moi | an esential factor in the bleachins properties of all fullers earths; some
 bleach fully as we'll after it has been driven off as before, and others los,
 much of their bleaching power wher thiG water is removed

Furthermore. mill

 quarried blocks of rhyolite in a tum-
 bier. Roughly subical or angular talus

To reduce. so far as it humanely pos sibe tEc number of killed and injured m mining operations: to provide for the widows and orphans created by un- :iVoidable accidents. through a system of Worlmen's compensation, fair alike ta the employer and the beneficiary; to conserve, so far as is economically possible. the present annual waste of two hundred million tons of coal: to stimulate the production of gold in or der that 1he parity between basic and credit money may he kept at such ratio as will insure stability without restrict ing our circulating medium; to create conditions under which the supply of commercial minerals may meet every demand of commerce and industry. to maintain q high scale of wages, create the best possible conditions for the wsrkingman. leave Il fair profit to the operator. the lowest consistent price to the consumer-and above all. to foster perfect cooperation between all classes interested in the mining indus try. The American Mining Congress Sohcits the support and cooperation of al who approve these purposes.
 Those who in different lines of en- terprise are directly or indirectly in tcrested in the prosperity of the mining
