The attention of ttie milling world is centered at present on I'tah and its progress along these lines. 1 believe that with the decreased costs of producing the various metals, met-als, and there is no doubt urnoner engineers en-gineers that the recent development Is destined to revolutionize the milling mill-ing industry, we will be In a position to compete in the sale of metals with any of the world s nations and yet at the same time secure a la rce margin mar-gin nf profit. It is but another example ex-ample of Yankee ingenuity appiied to a rather knotty problem.
