GOLD MINES IN
WEST REOPENING
Cut in Production Costs
Brings Activity.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. s.-Msnv
mines in California and Nevada are re-
opening with the falling cost of pro-
ducing gold. There still remain
numerous gold mines on the Pacific
coast containing good low grade ore
which cannot be extracted at the present
time
Work has Just been resumed in the
Gladstone mine after a shutdown Of six
years. This property was located about
1890 and has produced more than So
100000 in gold.
Preparations are being made to sink
another 150foot shaft in the Central
Eureka mine at Suffer Greek.
Nine more platinum claims have Just
been located in the Harrison GuIch
mine district. This is partly in Shasta
and partly in Trinity County.
A tram line is being built from the
Mountain Copper Company's Hornet
mine to the Southern Pacific Railway.
This is expected to be an operation by
the close of this year.
New ore bodies of considerable size
have been uncovered In the deep work
fngg of the Fremont Consolidated north
Of Amador City. Milling viii be re-
sumed shortly. Much new equipment
has been installed by the Metals Ex-
plcFation Company, which is controlled

STATE BRINGS
ECONOMY INTO
INSTITUTIONS
Establishment of Purchasing
Department Declared
Fine Stroke.

Hundreds Of thousands Of dollars
worth of food stuffs and other materials
is purchased on the local market each
year for the twenty one elcemosynary
institutions of Indiana.
Establishment Of the State purchasing
department is taid to have been one of
the finest strokes in favor of economy
ever delivered in behalf Of the State. A
large saving is accomplished In competi-
tive bidding for the sale of large guam
titles of staple commodities.
LOCAL MARKET
HAS ADVANTAGE.
Some idea of the g:!2 20 the local
market resulting from this Capitalization
of the States buying power may be
formed from this incomplete list of stuff
bought in year: 400 pounds Of choco-
late, 10000 gallons of strip, 240,00O
pounds Of beans, 100000 pounds of coal,
1900 pounds of baking powder, 100000
pounds of rolled oats, 10000 pounds OF
rice, 10000 pounds OF cheese, 100000
pounds of evaporated peaches, 10000
pounds Of prunes, 10000 pounds of cot
fee 325,000 pounds Of butterine.
While no favoritism is shown In the
awarding of bids, the Indianapolis mar
ket naturally, by reason Of its location

freight tariff, etc., wins the bulk Of the
States business. Specifications setting
forth the quality and quantity Of the
stufgs needed are prepared and delivered
to prospective bidders each quarter.
ECONOMY IN
QUANTITY BUYING.
Formerly each Of the twenty one IN
situations did its own buying. The guam
titles each bought did not warrant tbs
bottom prices. Frequently supplies had
to be replenished in the midst Of quar-
ter Retail prices then had to be paid.
The Standardization of buying precludeS
that possibility and also assures each In
stitution Of fair weight and quality. Elk
pert chemists and other facilities OF State
departments, cooperating with the State
purchasing agent, prevent loss to the
State from dishonest dealing.
The cost of sending travelling men to
the various institutions and the compar-
atively small quantities Of goods pur-
chased by each prevente dJobbers and
manufacturers from offering the best
prices to the institutional buyers. Now
all goods are purchased direct from ths
basic market ut the best price obtain
able.
Fred B. Robinson, the State purchasing
agent, is seeking to extend the work OF
his department to include the buying OF
all articles and materials used by the
State in all Its institutions and In the
statehouse, Governor Warren 7. McCraJ
is said to look with favor on the extern
i sion plan.
The cost of the purchasing department
is approximately $4,000 year.

CBy Rev. Barry

What we once thought to be our
dream has become reality. The
knights of Columbus, Council 2222
is now located in Holly, Colo. We
are sure that Jan. 8, 1921 the day
that gave birth to the baby Coun.
ell will be long remembered by
many in this locality for the event
that took place on this date.
The officers who had charge of the
degrees conferred on tn encW Knight
with their assistants and friends be
gan to arrive in Holly as early as
Saturday morning.
The services began Sunday at the
o'clock mass when about
fifty candidates with many old
Knights went in body to Holy
Communion The sermon was
preached by Father Barry who dwelt
at length on the Spirit of the
world and the spirit of the church" :"
At 9.l5 breakfast was served at the
Hotel Grand. At 1915 the work OF
putting on the first degree started,
after which the formal installation
of the new Council and new officers
took place. Dinner followed at 1915
AT one o'clock the first and second
degree WORK commenced and lasted
until $50 p NJ, the Masonic hall
being crowded to it's capacity.
A. A. LOTUS, State Deputy, X. of
c. and Grand Knight Decker and
Grand Knight Clyde Ashen had
charge OF the three degrees The
splendid manner in which they did
their work is beyond the power of
description.
AT ZOO p. NJ about $50 people
boarded Il special train which
brought them to the big banquet
prepared at the Harvey House, at
Syracuse, Kansas. One big surprise
was given us on boarding the train

AS TO TIE PRINTING BUSINESS
WHY PRICES HAVE NOT DROPPED

As prices of some commodities
have declined of late, and some other
drops are expected the impression
: has gone abroad that everything is
coming down to the old level This
is far from the fact. The future
undoubtedly. will see advances as
well as declines, for this is a period
OF readjustment in which fair prices
will be sought rather than of gener.
al3reduction. In the printing trade
there are no signs of an reduction.
and the old level will not be restor-
ed either in small towns. The pro
duction of nearly all kinds of paper
is~behind the demand now, and the
trade estimates that consumption
is five pounds for every four pounds
manufactured in the United States.
No increase in the supply from i'm
ports seems probable for several
years. Latest price lists quote the
highest figures ever known, which
generally are 300 per cent of the pre-
war prices.
The logic of the situation requires
that prices in the country towns be
maintained permanently above the
old time level for the preservation
of the business. Some twenty years
ago the printing trade in both cit
les and tOwns-eXcluding from con
sideration the metropolitan news
papers-waS in a deplOrable con.
dition. Only few concerns with
special advantages of some kind
earned interest on their invest.

At the same time the merchant

They had their vacations and went
to the mountains or the seashore,

tous country editor doing a com.
paratively large business in his

Some twenty years ago the print.
ers in the large cities found way
out of their distress through the
establishment of cost systems and
the formation of associations which
