price of zinc; the shutting off OF the
vast supplies of Germany and Bel
GUM, which countries formerly pro-
dltced more than half of the spelter OF
the world, caused a greater demand
for the United States product ano
months ago it was predicted that the
Spectacular advance in prices would
materialize.
But a striking feature brought out
in this district Is the absence Of any
undue excitement, and there are no
new mines being opened now which
cannot, very likely, operate probably

$50 or $55.
The highest price ever before paiF
for spelter was $7.65 in 1872. and the
previous record year was 81 in 1911.
The highest average for any one year
was Sill in 1912, and the next year
was 1907 when spelter averaged $6.20k
The highest previous price ever paid
for zinc blende was $64.50, basis, IN
1912, and the next record was 1913,
when the top basis was $50.

unprecedented in its strength. From a

VALUE OF PRODUCT
ESTIMATED THAT OUTPUT OF

TIMES THAT OF GOLD

The following from special cores
pondent of the st. Louis Globe-Dern-
ocrat gives an interesting account of
the mining situation of Joplin since
zinc began to soar
with zinc metal selling at $500 a
ton. with zinc ore selling for SIP ton
and with continuation of the strength
of the present market assured by
future orders which will take up the
entire production Of metal ror a year,
the zinc industry of the United States
assumes a phenomenally high relative
position compared with other metafs,
far surprising the aggregate value OF
gold and silver metal from the United
States and Alaska
The value Of gold metal produced
from the United States and Alaskan
ore sin 1918, the last year for which
figures are available from the United
States geological survey, was 1884,
400. The value of the zinc metal pro-
daced from the United States ores
alone for the fiscal year from May 10
1915 will be approximately 100000
OO0or more than three times as grea'
az the value of gold; and of this 5000
600 900 valuation the Missouri Kansas
oklahoma district will produce ores
which will produce metal valued al
about $120,000OOO.
Shelters Selling at $40.
Shelters are selling spot metal al
$27 per 100 pounds or $40 ton, while
future bookings show metal sold az

A special academic department Is to be

verslty of Omaha for high school
students desiring to make UP credits. SO

school students for this kind of work
that TO accommodate the large number
Of applicants. 1t was found necessary TO
have a separate department from that of

The work OF the department will be
along the same lines as that of the
Omaha High school and a plan is being
arranged with the school authorities so
that persons taking academic work at
the University Of Omaha will receive full
credit at the high school without taking
a special examination save that given
at the university at the end of the course.
This plan was arranged with Principal
Reed Of the Omaha High school last
year.
Besides the academic, plans have been
completed for pedagogical and college

months ago Mr.. Pegg proceeded against
various bakers for selling bread contrary
to the city ordinance and also for mis-
branding loaves. with the result that the
ordinance was held unconstitutional by
the courts.
The present status OF the matter leaves
some uncertainty in Mr.. Pegg's mind as
to how far he may go In exercising his
authority. He maintains however that
the state law relating TO misbrauding is
stiIl in force and he says he will compel
the bakers to give the amount of bread
indicated on the wrappers.
