Government Buys More
 Lands in Appalachian
 And White Mt. Regions

Washington, Aug. 26.-The Na- tional Forest Reservation Commission has approved the purchase by the Government of 59 tracts of land with a total of 66,8SO acres in the Appa- lachian and White Mountains. Of this, 36,00O acres is in the so-called Kilkenny Purchase Area" in New Hampshire. It is the policy of the Commission to build up Government holdings, as nearly solid as may be; through buying only in certain speci- fled places, which are designated pur- chase areas.
 The Kilkenny Purchase Area ad- joins the so-called White Mountain Purchase Area" on the north, and is on the watershed of the Connecticut River. The land now approved for purchase is the first to be acquired in the Kilkenny Area. About 17,000 acres of land on the White Mountain Area was approved. This land lies for the most part on the west slope of the Carter Range and practically com pletes the Government purchases in the northern portion of the White Mountain region. With this land a total of 69s,0s6 acres in the White Mountains has been acquired.
 Smaller tracts were purchased in the southern Appala chian Mountains, the largest total on any area being that of 7,678 acres in Pennsylvania County, North Carolina, on the Pis- gah Forest. Other tracts in Avery, Caldwell. Macon, and Mcdowell coun- ties, North Carolina, on the Boone, Nantahala and Mt. Mitchell Areas, aggregate 1870 acres. Approximate ly 2,000 acres of the approved lands are on the Potomac, Shenandoah and Natural Bridge Areas in Virginia; 956 acres are in Rabun and Union coun- ties, Georgia, and the remaining 5S6 acres are in Monroe and Sullivan counties, Tennessee.
 Congress recently reappropriated the $3,000.000 of the original fund which was not spent in the beginning of the work and which consequently reverted to the Treasury. This mon ey according to the officials in charge will be used mostly to round out the lands already acquired, so that they may be easily and economically ad- ministered. In making future pur- chases 1t is stated that the policy will be to select those tracts which block in with lands already purchased and which are offered at the most req sonable prices.
 The acquisition of lands was be- gun in 1911 under the so-called Weeks Law" which permitted the Government to purchase, for Nation al Forest purposes, lands on the head waters of navigable streams in the White Mountain and Appalachian re- gions. To date 1,396,367 acres have been approved for purchase.

METALS CONTINUE TO
ADVANCE IN PRICE

Copper is now strong at "a cents
the highest price it has sold for since
the panic of eight years ago. when
it reached Is cents. But at that
time the market was largely fictiti-
Gus. as the market was long on the
metal, while the price was largely
regulated through sales agencies,
while at the present time the mar
ket is practically bare of demand for
present and future spot" copper
with crowding deliveries, which can
not be fully supplied. notwithstand-
ing that all mining companies are
operating at full capacity. 1t is now
the consensus of opinion of men who
are in close touch with production
and market demand, that the price
will go still higher as the demand in
creases.
Lead is now selling at $50 to Sc.
while silver is strong at from So to
81. The advance of silver is said to
be due to the demand from foreign
countries for coinage purposes and
also to the demand for use in the arts
in this country. The probabilities
are that silver will continue to adj
vance as long as the war lasts, and
after it's close it is sure to go much
higher. because it is again bound to
come into general use as money in
all European countries. Zinc has
also doubled in price several times
since the war commenced, likewise
anthony and other metals.
The mining sections of the United
States are due for an unprecedented
boom, which will bring good times
to all sections. Ely Record.
