Food Administrator Writes Presi-
dent America Conserved 141,-
100000 Bushels Wheat.
CREDIT DUE TO WOMEN.
Meat and Fat Shipments Increased by
844,6O0,o0o Pounds.

Conservation measures applied by
the American people enabled the Unit
ed States to ship to the Allied peoples
and to our own forces overseas H.
100000 bushels of wheat and S44, 6O0,-
900 pounds of meat during the past
year, valued in all at $1,400,O00, 900.
This was accomplished In the face of
serious food shortage In this country,
| bespeaking the wholeheartedness and
patriotism with which the American
people have met the food crisis abroad.
Food Administrator Hoover, in a let
ter to President Wilson, explains how
the situation was met The voluntary
conservation program fostered by the
Food Administration enabled the piling
up Of the millions of bushels of wheat
during 1918 and the shipment of
meat during 1917-1S.
The total value of all food ship
ments to Allied destinations amounted
to 81, 100000, all this food being
bought through or In collaboration
with the Food Administration. These
figures are all based on official reports
and represent food exports for the
harvest year that closed June 80, 1918.
The shipments of meats and fats
Qncluding meat products, dairy prod
ucts, vegetable oils, etc., to Allied des-
tinations were as follows:
Fiscal year 191G-17.. =. 2, 1876, 500, 900 lbs.

ly disseminated copper sulphides are
found, including bornite In outcrops.
In a formation Of highly altered erup-
tive granite and schist, and at this
point some drill prospecting was done
during the year.
Mizpah Mine.
Fifteen miles further north, In the
Hoodoo district in Latah county, the
Mizpah mine was being developed dur
ing the year on a strong quartz IFS
sure in ancient sedimentary forma-
tons, and shipped nearly 200 tons. of
crude ore that averaged around II per
cent copper in the form of chalcopy-
rite and chalcocite, and gives splendid
evidence of permanency at this time.
Richmond st. Lawrence Mines.
Next to the Mackay district, the
principal source Of copper production
in Idaho during the past year was
from the Richmond mine on the st.
Joe river slope in Shoshone county,
near the Montana line. This prop
erty was equipped during the year
with an aerial tram over mile in
length to connect 1t with the Milwau-
kee railway. 1t employed force Of
40 to SO men and was shipping a car
load of crude ore day for several
months, which contained average va
lues Of about 6 per cent copper and
$500 per ton gold. The deposit is
developed to a depth of $40 feet on a
very pronounced vertical quartz filed
| assure vein that cuts the Bitter Root
mountain divide from Idaho into Mon
tana and traverses the adjoining St.
Lawrence group of claims. which is
handled under an Independent COM
pany management. The two properties
are connected by an adit tunnel driven
through the divide from Montana into
Idaho. The st. Lawrence ground ex-
tends about 100 feet over the line into
| Idaho.
| The formation is horizontal thin
bedded quartzite, and the vein verti-
cal, varying from foot to fifteen feet
wide. and very persistent for more
than 1000 feet on the joint properties
The gangue is vitreous quartz with
thick bands of massive siderite and
rotten spongy brown iron goosen
richly sprinkled with copper carbon
ate and oxides, and occasional kidneys
Of chalcocite ore. Some scattered chal-
copyrite mineral is in evidence at the
deepest point penetrated, but the bulk
Of the gangue is completely oxidized,
and the live ore horizon Of the vein
and it's importance as a source Of per-
manent copper values still remains to
be proven.
The st. Lawrence was working 20
men at the time Of my visit in No
vember and shipping 10 tons of ore
day. This property is opened from
the Montana side of the divide and its
product is hauled to Saltese, a station
on the Wallace branch Of the Northern
Pacific railway, five and one half miles
distant
A long tunnel now in nearly mile,
is being driven to tap another big Ms
sure adjoining the Richmond and
known as the Monitor vein, which will
be intersected at a depth of over 1000
feet and should demonstrate the per-
manent ore carrying capacity of this
| interesting series of assures.
National Mine.
| At Mullan operations were revived
in the fall at the National Copper
mine. This Is large deposit of low
ed with 500-ton concentrating mill

and a two-mile tramway designed for
electric haulage. The property is ex-
tensively developed to depth Of 1900
feet. 1t Is a vertical assure in tho
famous lead bearing Revert quartzite
of the Occur d'Alene district. The
main ore deposit at the 1000-foot tun-
mel level. from which 1t is being OPP
Grated through an incline shaft 500
feet deep is an impregnated zone In
the thick bedded quartzite that Is 40
to 60 feet wide and several hundred
feet long. The enterprise has been
worked intermittently since this ex-
tensive development was completed
and the splendid new mill constructed
about three years ago. but without
success. It represents some serious
Engineering mistakes, principally In
sampling results, which, in spite Of
duplicating tests. gave misleading
idea of the values and resulted In
building the splendid, up-to-date mil
ling plant with which the property is
equipped. The operation is being car
ried on at the present time under the
management of Mr.. Charles McKinnis,
and In November and December, work.
ing with small hoisting plant equip
ment under ground and inadequate
ihaulage facilities, was making little
money over current operating costs
from ore that gave mill feed results
of not to exceed eight-tenths of l per
cent copper, and about two ounces sill
yer per ton, affording shipment OF
clean concentrates totaling about Is
carloads, containing average values
of about 16 per cent copper and IS
ounces silver per ton.
The mill was being operated at only
half capacity. and the enterprise prob
ably represented the lowest grade I'M
derground copper sulphide ore in the
west to give results. With larger
hoist and haulage equipment and full
capacity output for the mill 1t Is be-
lleved the enterprise can be made to
pay a substantial profit under present
conditions. The ore Is very cheaply
mined by shrinkage methods, hardly
any timbering being required on ac-
count Of the extreme hardness Of the
ground which consists Of brittle thick
bedded, pure quartzite. These shrink
age slopes have developed local air
yr,hi oh
serious drawback to the more extern
sive operation Of the deposit and seem
to result from a natural tension on
the quartzite beds which, when re-
lieved by upward stopping, develop To-
cal explosions in the rock itself that
varies from few pounds to patches
of several tons, and are not confined
to the slopes. but occur in the cross
cuts, producing condition Of natural
hazard that can not be forestalled un-
der this method Of mining. The de-
post is too low grade to stand tim
bering and too hard to warrant the
necessity of it. Two slopes now be-
ing worked at the 1900 and 1500-foot
levels are about 1870 feet long and 40
feet wide.
Caledonia Mine.
| Quite a by-product Of copper was
produced, amounting to half million
pounds, from the operation Of the
Caledonia mine at Kellogg. The chief
values were in silver and lead, the
copper being derived from associated
gray copper mineral, which carries
very high values in silver, and has
able source of silver mineral in the en-
tire state for two or three years past.

Women Feel Superior to Men.

Mary Heaton Worse has very sensl-
BILE article in the February Woman's
Home Companion in which she says some
things which every young girl ought to
read She says in part:
''rhe spectacle of the superior young
female is a laughabe one, but it is far
more tragic than it is laughable, for
nothing so seals the spirit Dramatically
from anything that one may learn from
another than calm belief in ones own
excellence.
1T is this early belief in woman 5
intrinsic moral superiority that is truly
poisonous to any real growth. 1t makes
it possible for women to be mischievous
tale bearers but vet never repeat mali
cious remark without the noble gesture
of cce performing a painful duty.
Keeling superior never yet made any
one superior, but quite the contrary. Is
it not about time to admit that we are
made very much of the same material as
our men folks, and to teach this to our
Young girls? that, while life develops us
differently, on the whole it asks rather
more of men 1t is also good to teach
girls that the same thing that develops
a mans character also develops a wom
ans, and that while want and overwork
thwart humankind, lack of responsible
ity, and idleness, breed limited, imper-
feet human beings"

How Defeat Will Benefit the Germans.

! Harold Bell Wright, the famous au-
thor, says in the February American
Magazine
From our shores this gospel of the
man of Galilee and this gospel OF our
national freedom have gone forth to
every land. To our shores have come
| lives from every nation to be here fused
| into one national life and to add thus
to our ever-growing strength against
this day when, for all the peoples OF
/ earth, the divine cause of humanity is
| to be won or lost.
I'm the ranks of those who carry our
eountry's flag are men of every land
and blood English and French and Ger
man and Dutch and Spanish and Arme-
mans and Chinese and Japanese and Afri
cans and Indians There is scarcely race
on earth that is not represented in this
army of liberty.
"Our army is the army of this nation,
but it is more: 1t is the army of the
liberty loving world. It's blood is the
blood of humanity the humanity of Je-
sus, the humanity for which Jesus lived
and died.
"But Jesus said, Love your enemies
'Well, this nation sings no hymn of
hate. The spirit of those who viii carry
the Stars and Stripes TO Berlin is not
the spirit of hate. When the well-loved
and faithful dog of the household goes
mad and menaces the lives of friends
and neighbors, it is not hatred that fires
the bullet to end its madness. Because
this mad dog of Europe must be stopped
in his career of death does not mean that
hatred has raised the army that will
accomplish that necessary end.
BLESS them that curse YOU Do good
to them that hate YOU said Jesus.
Well the blessings of our cause in
victory will be to those men who face
our soldiers in battle, as well as to those
brave ones in whose support our men are
fighting. The good of liberty will be for
the German people as well and truly as
for all other peoples of earth. No great
er good could come to the people OF
Germany who are fighting now the bat
ties of their kaiser than the defeat and
utter humiliation of the spirit of that
ruler who drives them to the battle
ield.'
