IT SEEMS REASONABLE
C. A. Fisher, petroleu mgeologist. declares this coun
try's oil reserves are being rapidly depleted, while con
sumption is steadily mounting, so that higher prices for
both crude and gasoline are inevitable.
Average cost of drilling a well increased from 10,
000 in 1913 to $22,500 in 1923.
It is expected that our country's demand for petrol
eum will reach 800,000,000 barrels this year, and the
most optimistic estimates of domestic production for 1925
amount to only 700,000,000 barrels.
Considering growing demand and approaching de
pletion of reserves, it seems certain that higher prices for
both crude and gasoline must prevail in this country in
future over an extended period, except for temporary
fluctuations growing out of occasional discovery of flush
pools.:

MORE NORMAL MINING CONDITIONS
;.. Conditions in the miningr industry are much improved
over a year ago. In the spring of 1924, the country was
facing a period of uncertainty, due to the political situa
tion, which brought about a depression in trade during
the summer months. Today business conidtions are sound,
and there is every reason to believe that the country will
have a prosperous year.
Copper companies are curtailing production slightly
because a nurplun of some 15,000,000 pounds a month was
being produced, cuusIhb KUih low price? that they could
not operate profitably.
Purchases by Europe of quantities of silver for coin
age have helped the silver situation some, but these pur
chases bear no relation in quantity to the supplies held
by them before the war, and which must be replaced
Any conditions which help mining, creates employment
and distribution of money in the west.
PROPER UTILIZATION OF LUMBER
National Lumber Manufacturers' association declaras
that the forests of the iirmltvy are robbed of 140,000,
000 worth of wood overy year, by an unnecessary insist
ence on long boards for building. The waste in forest and
mill, and on the building job, is declared due solely to a
misunderstanding which demands long boards Yvhere
shorter lengths would serve as well and would save waste
all the way from the forest to the finished house.
Good lumbering and marketing calls for the utiliza
tion of the whole tree. The buying public should co
operate with the mills in this matter as an aid to forest
conservation.

TRUE PUBLIC OWNERSHIP
4 m- I
The large amount of money that has been and is
being put into the industrial corporations, particularly by
the small investor, is bringing about the ownership of
these industries, not by the government, but by a propor
tion of the people. This is not alone by their direct invest
ments, but also through the indirect investment of the
people's money by their insurance companies, banks, trust
companies, and other fiduciary institutions. It is to be
hoped, and the indications are it may be expected, that
for the good of all, this tendency will extend until a far
larger proportion of the people will become part owners
-in our great industrial life.
