FROM THE BOWELS
OF THE EARTH

These are great days for the min
ing industry in Utah, with metal
prices soaring and no sign Of check
or let up in the demand. Take re.
cent figures for example:
Copper was selling at 20 cents and
better. per pound, with likelihood of
going to 25 and staying there, while
some authorities predict that 1t will
reach 80 The present price is the
highest since June 1907, and the av-
erage figure for the PAST 30 years
has been a shade under IA cents.
AS Utah is producing at present
about 1S0,000,000 pounds per year,
the vast significance Of the increase
will be evident to any one capable
Of making a simple mathematical cal
culation.
Lead has advanced to $50 from
IS. 40 and IS. so per hundred pounds.
The average price of this metal for
the past 80 years has been little less
than $4.25. Utah's lead production
is in the neighborhood Of 200,000,00
pounds annually.
Silver went to Sc Is cents per
ounce, which is the highest in IS
months. While the changes in the
price Of this metal seem sligt, being
quoted in cents or fractions of cents,
1t will be noted that 1t is referred to
in terms of ounces, whereas copper
talks in pounds and lead in hundred.
weights. A fractional improvement,
therefore, means much in a produc-
ton as large as that of Utah, which
is about 100000 ounces per year.
For none of the metals does the fu-
ture look brighter than for silver.
More is to be used in the coinage,
and there Is prospect of heavy buy
ing from Great Britain, India, China
and South America. In fact this
movement is already under way.
The foregoing figures tell their own
story, and 1t is eloquent enough to
be submitted without comment. -.

PUBLIC MANNERS AND
ELDERLY PEOPLE

An elderly man VINO walks quite
feebly, using cane good deal Of
the time, complained to the writer
the other day of the heedlessness Of
the public school children.

said, "When bunch OF them came
along four abreast. was feeling
pretty weak and dizzy, but they just
forced me off into the gutter, and
one OF them switched his arms so
that they knocked my cane out Of
my hand. Never stopped to pick 1t
up or to say Excuse me, either.
1t was not long ago that an aged
lady also spoke of the way she felt
she had made herself ridiculous in
crossing a street.

Incidents like these must occur TO
the minds of most people. AS far

THE STAFF OF LIFE
AND ITS COST

The sensational advances in wheat
will convey an ominous significance
to the housewife. A grocer predict
ed few days ago that before spring
brands of wheat costing $3.50 be-
fore the war. would go to $500 or
more. This will be less than the
record price Of about $40 for these
grades last year. But the advance
will come closer home to working
people than any other present re-
suit of the war.
In spite of American prosperity,
there are still large sections Of our
population for whom bread is the
main article of subsistence. To great
numbers of recent immigrants meat
is almost a prohibited luxury. They
may pick up some remnants and
bones cheap, but only for use as an
appetizer. Bread and soup are the
menu. A touch of onions or other
punget vegetable may be used to
give the meal some tang.
A we'll seasoned soup has a sur
prising effect to give an otherwise
dry provender some flavor, and
makes a meal seem more substantial
than 1t really is. With this added
relish, many new corners to America
will gnaw along for days on their
long loaves baked after the foreign
manner.
Wheat bread OF course is food Of
pie of indoor life and finicky appe-
titles would not eat enough of it for
full nourishment. The manual labor

puts 1t down with avidity. II he
came from the old country, he may
have learned to eat 1t without but.

The present nigh wheat prices will
again encourage the farmer to stun
every possible acre with the staple
grains, and hire money to pay his
help. But the wastes Of trench life
are great. the demand for wheat

working man will pay high for his
loaf while the war lasts.
It will certainly be a great year

DEEP SNOW NOW ON
NATIONAL FORESTS
And Timber Sale Receipts Are
Decreased Because Min Op-
eratfons Are Hampered.

WASHINGTON, March 1s.-Ac-
cordinE to forest service officials the
unusually heavy snowfall. which has
signalized the last winter in most
OF the West has materially affected
national forest business.
Timber sale receipts have decreas-
ed In some regions because logging
and milling operations have been
hampered by deep snow and evcep-
tionally cold weather. The same fac
tors have given stockmen using the
rational forest ranges much concern,
although Ms yet there have been no
severe livestock losses reported. The
foresight OF the Btockmen In provid-
Ing winter feed, which Is now gener-
all practtced. makes a recurrence Of
the former immense losses very I'M
likely. The damages caused by the
snow and resulting slides and foods
to forest service trails. telephone
lines and other permanent improve
ments are not yet known. but un-
doubtedly are heavier than usual and
their repairs will make much spring
work for the rangers.
Most of the railroads in crossing
the mountains Of the northwest run
for considerable distances through
the national forests. Reports from
the forest officers show that some Of
the roads have had a strenuous strug-
gle with the snow to keep the lines
open. The great rotaries have had
hard work to pillow through the huge
drifts. Snow slides bave swept down
the steep slopes. filling the cuts. and
burying the tracks to great depth
Not only did they block all traffic,
but In several cases destroyed life
and property. These slides, usually
occur on slopes where fire has de-
stroyed the timber. leaving nothing
to hold the snow in place, according
to the forestry officials, who assert
that thrifty stand Of timber on the
mountain sides Is the best possible
safeguard against these destructive
aValanches.

serious consequences. A spring Are
usually destroys little timber, either

preceding year. Its menace to prop.
erty and life In remote settlements
has been demonstrated more than
once and must not be underestlmated,
BY keeping the ground moist until
1t Is covered with green vegetation

great snowbanks become active
agents in preventing spring fires.
