The cop-per buying movement gained second wind last week when, after 3 weeks of good buying and one dull week, a ' spurt come from loreign sources, which was reflected in the domestic market and caused an unusual flur-ty- . The result is that copper now stands at 14' cents, f. o. b. delivery points, and close to 14 cents, f. o. b. New York. Lead has also been ac tive, with the contract price advanc-ing from 6.00 cents to 6.10 cents, and ( zinc has been quiet but with slightly stronger price 5.75 cents. The lead market has been suffici-ently active to cause an advance in price generally. For fully a week be-fore the advance came, there was some metal commanding a premium over the contract figure. Practically all classes of lead buyers were in the market. The fact that the world production of zinc for the last month broke all records for all time, . has not helped the zinc situation or given any confi-dence in its improvement. It 13 a sen-sitive market, fluctuates within small ! .. .. . .. .. .t i umi's, uepenuing uion tne number o. sales and size of the lots. The world production of zir.c during February totaled 122,335 tons, which is on average of 421 S tons daily, a new ncord. During January trie dai :? average was lie!) ton:-,- . There vx-- i n a steady incease in zinc produ? ti?n since July 1J27 and the average dtiiy rate during 1027 was 3910 tons, or about 300 tons less than the pres-ent rate. The increase seems to be fairly general and not confined to auy one or group of countries. .The-- statlsUc lata on copper for March will be eagerly anticipated, as some high totals are expected, which will possibly influence the whole sit-uation. It is generally believed that the total of export and domestic de-liveries will exceed 125,000 tons, and that there will be a large drop In the surplus stock. The buying of copper has been un-usually heavy for delivery during the next three months' period, and it looks as though the consumers were now desirous of protecting theniselvc, against a price advance, which seems inevitable. The producers played wisely in not advancing the price during the last buying movement, and not making any advance until the buying wave r?end to be about completed. The sellers have now Fold all the metal they care to sell at the 14 1.S cent price and are s'ronsly holding for 11 cents. The copper producers have been very successful in maintaining a sta-ble copper market, during the past few weeks and in having carried for-ward t! eir program, in view of the continued dullness, and their success will undoubtedly bring buyers into line In taking care of their require-lenf- s ahead of time and being sure of delivery. Although there has been an ad-vance in the domestic market price, there ras been no advance ih the ex-port price as yet, that price remain-ing at 14V4 cents. The volume of buy-ing abroad and the fact that very Iti-tl- e copper remains in European ware-houses indicate that a foreign ad-vance of cents may be expected. In spite of the fact that Germany is not expected to take as much cop-per ihls year as last, the start for 1928 has been good, with 18,265 tons monthly average imports so far, as against a monthly average of 17,704 tons last year and 10,100 tons month-ly durln-- 1926. Great Britain has been importing 10,953 tons net month-ly this year, as against 9,858 tons monthly during 1927,4 and 8,527 tona during 1926. Germany is also away up in lead, having net imports this year of 17,792 tons monthly as against 11,772 last year, and 6,340 tons during 1926. Great Britain is off this year with 19,391 tons,' as against 22,820 tons monthly net during 1927, and 21,060 tons during 1926. The copper situation can be regard-ed as materially improved and trav-elling forward to a further improve-ment rapidly. The lead market is bet-ter, but with no sign of any great ad- - vance, and the zinc market is decid-edly weak, even though it does get ' den bursts of enthusiasm, which tem-porarily strengthen the price a few cents. . Baseball Season Opens . A PL whit are. you fwro ':) Wlf t KiWANIS MGETING One of the Jolliest meetings ever held in Bingham was that of the is Club last Thursday evening. The occasion being the fifth annivers-ary of the granting of a charter to the local organization. A large dele-gation from the Salt Lake Club head-ed by President John E. Jones, made their annual visit to the club here. Pres.

The meeting was then turned over to Pres. Jones of the Salt Lake club. Carl Scott, of Scott & Ware archi-tects, gave an Illustrated lecture on landsape gardening which proved to be of much Interest Just at this season of the year when everyone's thoughts are turned) toward the task , of cleaning up and beautifying lawns and gardens. Carl's illustrations Were made more impressive and by his witticism and by the full size drawings which Jie had so cleverly prepared. The principal feature of the eve-ning was the lecture by Dave Madsen, State Fish and Game Commissioner. Through the use of half a dozen rolls of film, Dave took the boys through most of the sportmen's haunts, throughout the State. These pictures! were the very best ever taken and showed many beautiful scenes of the wild life from stream and field.

The boys will remember the success of the previous shows given by Doc. and will no doubt be on hand to enjoy this one. i EAGLE'S DANCE.

WILLHELP Not long ago we overheard a mer-chant the fact that the automobile and good roads were taking business to other towns some distance away. At the time we are inclined to sympa-thize with him and thought that sure-ly his lot must be hard, but recently we had the opportunity of visiting that man's town and to our sUrrpise found that this good, d road that he spoke of passed directly in front of his store. A little investi-gation showed that the retailers in those distant towns were beckoning to prospective customers in a wider trade area through consistent advert-ising, while the local merchant was so busy counting the automobiles that passed on their way to spend their dollars with some neighboring city, that he forgot to put a stop sign in front of his store in the form of good advertising. We put it up to this retailed who decided immediately to try out some well written, well laid out, well illus-trated advertising telling the folks of his community how they could secure the r,ome' merchandise right at home stores and save dollars in gasoline, tires r.nd general wear and tear on their cars, to say nothing of lime. Letters ah o were planned to go of, ironi time fo rim", telling of special merchandise or some unusual selling event and in some cases tolling of merchandise to be had at the neigh-boring store or grocery or meat mar-ket. It took on the appearance .!- - most of a community advertising plan with all the stores combining their efforts in one great boost for their town and for keeping local money at home where it would do the most good. A retail merchant from one of our nearby cities gave a pretty good ans-wer to this whole situattion. He said. "The time a merchont spends in watching to see who goes into his competitor's store could better be spent In advertising to Induce the trade to bring their dollars to his counters." RolHns News.

Around the first of tiext month, construction will begin on about 25 new homes in .Copperton about three miles below Bingham. Approximate-ly between ?100,000 and $165,000 will be spent on these homes. ; The Copper Company has already spent a considerable amount of money in making Copperon a model town for its employees, and this new addi-tion will accomodate more than two dozen families with modern living quarters. t Mrs. Edna P. Wade, head of the English department of the Bingham High School returned to Bingham the first of the week after a short vfeijt with friends on the coast.

Elks must sign GUEST CARDS to insure tleir admittance to the ball room. Through the enterprising citizens of Markham and the of the Town Board, this district will, in th very near future, install a first class sewer system. This improve? ment will be of much benefit both in the matter of sanitation and conven-ience. Homes can be made thorough-ly modern and far more desirable than at present and the value of pro-perty there will be greatly increased. Property owners have agreed to pay their proportion of the cost of this improvement. Much preparation is being made to carry out a cleanup campaign in Bingham Canyon which will rival all previous efforts in this regard. Many of the best citizens have expressed a willinness to in this mat-ter to the extent of making the town the cleanest it has ever been. All good citizens will do their share we feel sure and the health departments of both the City and the County as well as the civic clubs and the schools will in this matter. Let us make this cleanup unanimous. i A beautiful Essex Coach will be given away on April 28, Just the time you will want to be sporting a new spring livery.
