MICHIGAN
As Mining Country, Owes Fame to
Genius Of Agassiz, Says Holland
First to Discover the Mineral
Riches Of Upper Peninsula
Fortunes Made in
Copper, Iron Ore
and Lumber.

New York, July 23-Alexander Agas-
siz's business career is coincident in
point of time with the life of the
great copper mines of the Northern
Peninsula of Michigan. 1t is half a
century since this mining company
was organized by Agassiz, and at the
fftieth anniversary, a few days ago,
Henry L. Higginson, of Boston. spoke
to large gathering at Calumet, Mich,
words of compliment and praise.
The public ledger. [volume] (Maysville, Ky.) 1913-1968, 1916-07-25

ments were. He sought the aid Of the
Lees, and they we're among Boston's
elect. He had but to say the word to
the Cabots. the Higginsons, the Quincy
Shaws and the Poabodys, and his
word was sufficient.
This group, than which no other
could better reflect the social and in
tellectual aristocracy OF Boston, hav-
ing faith in Mr.. Agassiz, supplied him
with all the funds he needed Their
faith was justified. II was said in Bos-
ton at the time OF the death Of Quincy
Shaw, that no small part Of his fortune
OF many millions was the reward he
received for placing confidence in
Alexander Aggassiz.
This inner and select circle has al
ways constituted tho real Calumet and
Hecla family. Major Higginson said
the other day that he trusted him
would maintain the same interest in
this property that he and his father be-
fore him maintained.
Another feature associated with Mr..
Agassiz's management and direction OF
this property is to be found in the les
son which he taught of the value OF
very high efficiency. He was able
through his scientific attachments to
give good counsel respecting efiic-
iency. He was one OF the first to DEM
onstrate that IL there be better piece
of machinery than one in use It is ex-
pedient to throw the one in use into
the scrap heap and put in the new APP
paratus.
His scientific attachments were of ut
most value at the time OF the great
fire in these mines, for he would not
permit the minors to be deluged with
water, but instead infused carbolic acid
gas into the caverns, which quickly
put an end to the flames.
Then, too, there was the moral in
huence instilled by Mr.. Agassiz and
the others which made II possible to
create a considerable city there, where
the 10000 inhabitants live in peace and
comfort; and when as evening APP
lproaches the great lifts bring the
miners from the bowels of the earth
they are heard singing the hymns that
speak of peace and of religious faith,
coming forth at the top of the mine
still singing as though they were con-
tent.
The public ledger. [volume] (Maysville, Ky.) 1913-1968, 1916-07-25

! Mr.. Agassiz's professional career
was of greater length than his business
career, for he was already known as
a most worthy son of distinguished
father when he ventured into North
ern Michigan with intent to take hold
of the copper properties. To the world
of science he is as well known today
as he is to the world of business, and
this is a very rare achievement for
any man.
The fiftieth anniversary of the or
ganization of the Calumet ana Hecla
mining property would have justified
had Mr.. Higginson been so disposed,
some reference to the relation which
this industry bears to the prosperity
of the United States to the increasing
wealth and especially to the develop
ment of the brass industry, in which
the United States leads the world
Future Looked Bright
First of all, the riches yielded by
the mines under the leadership profess
sional and business of Mr. AgassiZ
were in the early years of the cor
pOration the first evidenced that the
long despised and neglected upper
peninsula of Michigan was to gain
prominence as the richest region in
the United States of like area, except
Ing possible one or two in California.
The peninsula was despised in the ear
~ years of our Government and was
tossed back and forth.
1t was known that the Indians had
discovered and made use of copper,
but there was no promise OF great de-
velopment of these copper riches
When Mr. Agassiz took hold of the
property the United States was pro-
duclng less than 1000 tons of copper
q year. Within a few years we were
producing nearly $1,000 tons of copper,
and the amount increased yearly until
Ut ldst we gained pre-emlnence as n
copper-producing nation.
When these Northern Michigan cop
per mines were yielding abundantly
there came the discovery of enormous
deposits of iron ore in the upper penin-
sula. The exploitation OF these mines
was one of the great achievements of
the country. Then lumbermen who
had utilized much of the timber of
Pennsylvania and some of the timber
OF New England went to the northern
peninsula and found pine trees which
upon experiment were found to yield
the finest kind of lumber, and these
they cut and marketed in enormous
amounts.

Aid From Business Men

seek those who specuIated. but in
stead the men who had gained fortunes
by what is sometimes called legitimate
business methods. Moreover. he turn

Romance in Discoveries

These three natural resources skill
fully exploited made the upper PENN
sular of Michigan one of the worlds
great centers of wealth-producing ac-
tivity.
Many romantic variations have been
made purporting to describe Mr..
Agassiz's discoveries in that copper
field. None Of them surpassed in real,
because true, romance the story of his
achievement. He was brilliantly edu-
Gated as a man of science, and had
served for time on the United States
Coast Survey. 1t was presumed that
he, like his father, was Indifferent to
money, and would be content II he
earned enough to maintain himself in a
modest way and pursue his scientific
investigation.
However, there was the business
side Of his intellectual equipment
which was to be revealed after he
took hold of these copper properties.

Clearly a Violation of Law

According to law it is as illegal to
offer bad eggs as it is adulterated food
According to reports inspectors are
looking into the egg business. Al
this time of the year it is an easy
matter to innocently offer bad eggs,
although it might prove expensive
for the one making such offer. The
only safe way is for the producer to
gather the eggs daily and be careful
in the matter of taking eggs from
nests not visited daily. The safe way
is to candle" the eggs and east out
