GROWTH OF MINERAL WEALTH
Head of School of Mines at O. A. C,
Predicts Advance in Mineral Out- 1
put.
Corvallis, Ore. Prof. H. II. Parks j
head of the school of mines at the
Oregon agricultural college, predicts
a general advance in the mineral out-
put of the state and the development ;
of mining into one of Oregon's lead-
Ing industries. The vast mineral j
wealth, not including gold, sliver, and ,
coal, such as raw materials for soda, j
cement and many other natural ele- I
merits abounding ln this region, awaits '
capitol and men to fit it for the needs
of industry.
In a bulletin of the bureau of mines I
shortly to be issued by Prof. Parks, he
shows the 1910 mineral output of the I
state to be worth $4,200,546, an In- !
crease of alt lost $2,000,000 over that!
of 1900. Gold, silver, coal, granite, j
sandstone, limestode, clay for brick,
tile and pottery, mineral water, cop- ,
per, sand and gravel and lime and ,
gypsum, are included in his list or
valuable products of the year.

Sper-tators enjoyed many thrills
over the marvellous turns that Moor- j
house made. At last the heron drop
ped to tho ground, utterly exhausted.
I measured four ftet across tho
wings. 1
