GOVERNMENT LOANS
 FOR DROUGHT AREAS

The first official act of Secretary of Agriculture Wallace was to take up the consideration of making loans to farmers in drought-stricken areas for the purchase of seed, for which pur- pose Congress recently appropriated $2,OOO,000. The law states that the Secretary of Agriculture is author ized, for the crop of 1921, to make ad- vance or loans to farmers in drought stricken areas in the United States, where he finds that special need for such assistance exists, for the pur- chase of wheat, oats, barley, and flax seed for seed purposes.
 It has been found that there is a need for such loans to farmers in west ern North Dakota and parts of Mon tana where there was serious drought last year. Farmers in those areas are reported to be in urgent need of seed for spring planting, and plans are be- ing made with the least possible delay by Secretary Wallace to provide such farmers with money at a low rate of interest for the purchase of grain and flaxseed.

Worlds Gold Surplus

place during the last two years, will postpone the financial recovery of Europe and still further limit our eX- port trade.
 The Director of the Mint reports that 75,000,000 of gold was consumed in the industrial arts in 1919, which is three-fourths of the amount pre- sented by MT. Kitchin for the worlds industrial consumption. The produc- tion of new gold in the United States declined from 1,0O0,000 in 1915 to $49,5OO,OOO in 1920. It is time that the United States, as one of the prin- cipal gold-producing countries of the world and as creditor nation, should check the amount of gold diverted for industrial use and provide means to prevent a still further decline in it's production of new gold.
 The gold producing power of the Nation is now seriously threatened, and loss of large gold ore reserves through continued shutting down of the mines is imminent, unless imme- diate relief is provided. To maintain the gold producing power of the United States will be to safeguard the gold standard.-Mining Congress Journal, Washington, D. c.

Samuel Montagu X Co.,, of London, in their statement of February g., quote the authority, MT. Joseph Kit chin, as follows: "The 1919 worlds gold production was 975,20O,000; of this, industry took e22,000,000; India f27,7OO,OOO (year to March 31, 1920) and China e13,5OO,OOQ, leaving only &12,OOO,OOO for addition to the stock of money to the rest of the world. Industry probably took 922, 2,OOO,OOO of the f7O,O0O,0OO produced in 192U. The absorption of India and China will probably be found to leave a figure al most as small in 1920 as in the preced- ing year for the worlds stock of money. The addition used to be f5O,- 000,000 or more per annum."
 On account of the diversion for the last two years of the newly produced gold into industry and the Oriental countries, the amount of newly pro- duced gold available for monetary purposes has been reduced from about $25O, 100000 or more per annum to less than $60,000,00O during 1919 and 1920. It is regrettable that so much gold is thus diverted from monetary use at a time when the worlds de- mand for monetary gold is so great. This diversion explains to large ex- tent the continued depreciation of European exchange, which has oper- ated to so seriously impair the pur- chase power of Europe in our mar kets. A continued decline in the pro- duction of new gold, coupled with SC extensive a diversion as has taken

SILVER PRODUCTION
 MUST BE PROTECTED

Engineering and Mining Journal.
 The silver producer in the United States is practically the only metal mine operator who, under present con ditions in the metal markets, can prof itably work his property. With the fixed price of $1.00 per ounce for sil- yer established by the Pittman act, he can look forward for upwards of three years operations at high price for silver and in the face of continual declining commodity and production compared with his fellow operators in low priced copper, lead and zinc.
 Unfortunately most of the silver produced in the United States is by product metal obtaining from the re fining of copper or lead, so that a relatively small number of mining companies are directly engaged in producing silver exclusively. How ever, the fixed price of silver has been of great importance in aiding the cop per and lead producers to make "both ends meet" Were it not for the high precious metal contents of Idaho lead ore and Montana copper ores, the pro duction of lead and copper from these two states would undoubtedly be much smaller.
 Over 36,OOO, ,OOO ounces of silver had been purchased by the treasury under the Putnam act by the middle of Feb ruary, or more than one-seventh the total required purchases of the 207,- GOO, 900 ounces. Talk of repeating has been auieted in this country as a bet ter understanding of the working and principles of the Pittman act has been realized. It is well that this should be so, for the mistaken impression that the government was losing heav, ily on the purchases seemed wide. spread. Criticism at present directed against the act has come mainly from abroad, where it has been pointed ou' that Ahere are good reasons why sil' yer prices are inimical to the best in' terests of the United States. One reason advanced was that high silver prices prevent importation of easterr commodities or increase their cost, tt which one may make rejoinder by pointing out that high priced silver is beneficial to our export trade to the east, as it enables Asiatic peoples tt make large purchases from the west.
 It should not be forgotten, in dis counting arguments for the nullifica tion of the Pittman act, that thf American silver producer is being vlr tually paid by British funds, as it wa' Great Britain's demand for silver dur ing the war for use in settling lndia'' trade that led to heavy purchases from the United States government al s1 an ounce. This British money l' now literally being passed along t' the American producer in replacing the silver in the treasury.

Leon M. Estabrook, Chief of the Bureau of Crop Estimates, has been designated by the Secretary to have general supervision of organization to hake the loans ,and c. w. War burton, of the Bureau of Plant Indus try, has been put in charge of the field organization. These men were in charge of the seed grain loans in the fall of 1918 and spring of 1919, which were made available by special fund allotted for the purpose by the Presi- dent. The Secretary has also ap- pointed an advisory committee, of which MT. Estabrook is chairman, and of which the following are members: Dr. w. A. Taylor Chief of the Bur eau of Plant Industry; w. M. Will Hams, Solicitor; A. Zappone, Chief of the DiSbursing Office; and Dr. c. B. Smith, in charge of extension work in the Northern and Western States.
 MT. Warburton will establish head quarters at Fargo, N. D., and will is sue information and instructions to extension leaders, county agents, and other officials who will cooperate in placing the loans. The department will be represented in every country by the county agent, and either the county agent or some other represen- tative of the Government who is fam iliar with local conditions will pass up- on each application for loan.

The Bitter Truth

Joseph Hergesheimer, who enjoys an even greater literary reputation in England than at home, dined re- gently with a friend at a New York restaurant.
 The novelist was condemning the prevalent commercial spirit in litera- ture and said:
 "In true art money should never be an object"
 At this point in the conversation the waiter brought in his exorbiant bill and MT. Hergsheimer, scanning the document, sighed and remarked:
 "It is true that in art money should be no objeN-but it should be no ob- jection, either, in these times."-De- troit Free Press.

authorizing the loans states that the Government is to take first lien on the crop to be purchased from the seed obtained through the loan, and that the Secretary of Agriculture may in his discretion deem this sufficient security.
 Every effort will be made by de- partment officials to have the neces- sary organization for making loans in operation in advance of the plant ing season.
