1915 To Be Record Year In
The Industry of Mining Now

; are favorable for new high recor5
t on iron-ore production, and of pis
{ iron as WELL Higher prices with a
8 steady demand are stimulating tha
mining of manganese, with the re
+ suit that this years output of ore is
expected to surpass the large yfosuc-
ticn of last year.
The lead and zinc mines are pro-
ducing ore at rate even exceeding
that of last year and the prevailing
prices hive made possible the working
of large quantities of low-grade ore.
Most precious-metal mines are oper-
ating at full capacity. The gold pro-
ddction will probably fall below the
high yield of last year. but silver, the
one metal last to benefit by the
general domestic prosperity, is ex-
pected this year to break I'll previous
records.
In quicksilver the outlook is for
continuance of the output of 1915,
which was the largest for several
years. Thus far in 1916 the average
price has greatly exceeded the 1915
prices; and although the reaction in
prices has come, conditions are favor
able for steady and profitable opera
ton Of the quicksilver mines, some Of
which are newly opened.
The reports from the Surveys west
ern Offices are all optimistic In Ari-
zona mines and smelters are working
at high pressure and the production
of metals already shows an increase
that promises to make the value of
the output nearly double that of last
year. Arigona will maintain first
place as a copper producer New
Mexico is continuing its rapid pro-
gress as metal mining state, with
increases in its output of lead, copper,
zinc, gold and silver. The mines Of
Colorado in the six months just past
have shown some changes in outpu.
as compared with last year; an in
I.crease Of 80 per cent in copper is in
dicated, together with small gains in
lead and zinc, Is per cent decrease
in gold and little change in silver.
This output, however, represents
large gain in value of mine produc-
ton. Mining has also been stimulated
III Montana, and the forecast indicates
an increase of 60 per cent in the value
of the mine product over last year.
Here also record outputs may be ex-
pccted for 1916. Idaho mines are in
creasing their shipments in all the
metals, with higher wages and larger
dividends as the result of better pric-
es.
Utah is experiencing an ore excess
o. smelter capacity. The value of the
1916 output of copper is expected to
be double that of last year. Through
out Nevada the old term boom" best
expresses the present mining revival.
Old mines are being reopened and
regular producers are working at full
capacity The chief gains in produc-
ton will. be in copper, lead, and zinc.
The increased activity in the mining
industry Of California is finding ex-
preston largely in the reopening Of
mines that have been long idle and
the opening of new mines cor chrome

There are no death claims duo ana

The actual rate oi mortality was
tut gl.50 per cent Of the expected,
and the reason for such low NOR
teiity rate is due to the fact that the
Union Central has no foreign insar-
anca in force and writes no sub
standard business. The risks that ai'
accepted must be preferred risks De.
fore the company will issue a policy.
That is in itself m explanation why
the premium rates of this great ON

On asking Mr. lie sucr under what
