GOLD MINERS HAIL
R0OSEVELT'SPLAN
Some See Boom in Industry,
While Others Await Test
of Program.
3y the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, October a.
President Roosevelts gold policy an
greeted with general favor by officials
and others in touch with the mining
industry in the West.
Comment ranged from outright pre-
dictions Of mining booms to more eau
tious assertions that test of the Gov
ernment gold market policy should be
awaited. The concensus was that a
price in excess Of the old domestic fig
ure OF s2o67 must be assured If the
Treasury Is to benefit.
Mark A. Skinner, superintendent OF
the United States Mint at Denver, fore
cast the greatest revival of mining in
this region in 20 to rs years."
Awaits Test of Program.
Jesse F. Mcdonald, president OF the
Colorado Metal Mining Association, ex-
pressed the opinion a Government mar
ket probably will help the Western
mining industry" He said that judg-
ment should be reserved, however, "un-
til we see the plan in operation"
THE policy is certain to stimulate
mining" said Peter j. Haggerty, super
intendent of the United States Mint in
San Francisco. He said that since the
Government recently removed some re-
strictions and permitted the sale OF gold
in the world market receipts at the
mint had greatly increased. Daily re-
Ceipts now never drop below 5000
ounces. he said. and on one day re-
Gently % 800 ounces were received.
Charles F. Willis, editor of the Ari-
Eona Mining Journal, said:
"Mr. Roosevelts program should slim
ulate the gold miners of Arizona and
other States to quicker action, throw
more money into circulation and relieve
the small miner by creating a ready
market for his product. From the
Presidents address I assume that a
reasonable world market price for gold
would be fixed"
Says Price Must Be Higher.
Montana mining men expressed belief
their industry will improve under the
Government market.
IF the country, however, IS to be on
a true gold basis" said E. A. Probst, in
charge of mining operations of Winston
Brothers near Helena, ''the price must
be higher than the old price Of $40 an
ounce"
He declared that "if gold were $40
now, the United States Government
could liquidate all its currency in gold"
C. r. Brazier, secretary of the Mon
tana Silver Association. said stabiliza-
ton of the gold situation should indi-
rectly aid silver land might lead ulti-
mately to the stabilization of both
metals"
Nevada mining men were generally
hopeful that, with the United States
Government in the market as gold
buyer, the price will advance.

Dollar Value Uncertain.


Some people are putting the cart be-

u Is the Governments policy to re-

OF the dollar will be. To guess at a

Conquering Contract

ing, and he thereupon bid six spades.
The contract was, of course, defeated,
as both a club and diamond must
be lost.
Had the response on the first round
been two no trumps, not two clubs. the
bidding would have continued with
three spades, four (or perhaps f1ve)
spades, pass. Opening bidder now does
not foresee or rely on any play in the
club suit having only two aces and no
hint of place to shed so many losers,
he naturally does not bid the slam.
With ace-king or two aces in the re-
spending hand it is in order to bid a
fve-card suit headed by king-jack, as
there will be at least finesse against
the queen, so that you need not wish
to back down from slam try developed
by the opening bidder. The quality of
your suit should be retrospectively con-
firmed by the sole fact that you did not
rebid your suit to show weakness in
the hand.

A Doubtful Contribution.

In a speech to the members Of the
American Chemical Society discussing
some of chemistry's contributions to
the world, Harry L. Derby of New York,
president of the American Cyanamid
e. Chemical Corporation, made the fol-
lowing observations:
One Of the notable incidents of the
present depression is the demand for
low-priced merchandise, quality being
one of the lesser considerations quite
the reverse Of the prosperity type Of
demand. In past generations, the dis
tinctions between good and cheap mer-
chandise we're readily discernible by
the most inexperienced observer. How
ever, modern chemistry has largely
eliminated the superficial differences by
neatly and sttractively covering up the
inferior quality.
Mr.. Derby is TO be commended for
his candor. but it Is question whether
many will unite with him in praising
the particular sort of scientific ad-
vancement that has largely eliminated
the superficial differences Cbetween good
and cheap merchandise by neatly and

One of the chief contributions of the

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEEELL,

It simply means that the seed will
require the usual four to six weeks for
terminating and growing into grass
capable OF being cut. This is normal,
of course, but it puts of the customary
first cutting until some time in May,
rather late.
Therefore it will be found helpful if
cursory moving be given the lawn at
this time to take down the high spots,
CT which there probably will be num-
Der.
Then the entire lawn may be raked,
if this has not been done previously
land. because of the prevailing raw
weather, the chances are that it has
not been done).
The necessity for this preliminary
moving arises due to the fact that after
fresh seed is sown in the bare spots the
disturbed until grown tall enough for
cutting
All this is bothersome, true. but a
good plot of grass Is worth some worry.
And If one does not care to make
such a task of it, it is possible to do
nothing. simply wait until more rains,
time and chance, under natures excel
lent care, have grown the grass until
moving cannot be put off any longer.
One Of the delights of grass culture
IS that even an ordinary lawn looks
remarkably well after the first real
moving.
Who has net experienced this pleas
ure?
Here is yard which looks rather
ragged. some tufts of grass sticking up
like feathers on the heads of the leg
endary Indian, while over here are bare
spots with earth showing plainly.
After the grass Is cut, especially If
most of it IS left lie, the whole has
smoothed itself out in wonderful way.
Even the spears of the wild onions,
spouting up all over the place, have
largely disappeared.
No subsequent cutting will cause a
greater improvement in the appearance
of a lawn, and the one who does the
cutting may we'll take an honest salts
faction in his task.
The return of the robin, trustv har-
binger of real Spring. is not without its
counterpart in the flower world.
We discovered the first dandelion the
other afternoon, nesting half-opened in
the grass.
1t was like greeting an old friend, in
sense, despite the fact that its ap-
pearance meant that scores Of more
dandelions would appear in all proba-
bility. within a few weeks.
Fortunate is the amateur gardener
who is able to classify these and other
weeds" as interesting in themselves,
despite the injury which they may do
his lawn, and regardless Of the work
which they cause him. He accepts all
Nature. not just part Of it.
1t would seem that some amount of
worry is inseparable from ownership,
here or elsewhere There is always
something happening, so perhaps it
might as well be dandelions as any,
thing else.
Ones thoughts keep returning to the
grass, at this time of year.
1t is, before everything else, the
primary gardening.
Often grass is taken for granted, on
the theory that it will take care Of
itself
Usually it does pretty well, in that
natural way, but there can be little
doubt that a little help, at the right
time. is a real aid to 1t.
Besides, the gardener helps himself
when he helps his grass.
He helps himself to real part In
