It Is generally conceded that ftuaata Is
short on ammunition, and It is highly
probable that copper, which ta , mora
aeoaaasry la tha manufacture of shells
than si most any other ons constituent.
Is particularly bard to get In tha empire
of tha rear. But new tha Roasts port
of Archanaat la open for tha few months
of tha White Peas summer, and RusMs
might well try to seoura ehtptnenta of
copper from anyone, and In any shape
that might ba available.
It is thus that tha well know product
of tha Omaha firm haa oome to their
attention, and It seems not at all beyond
belief that tha Imperial government
might send an order ta tha local maau
facturera. A ton and a half of pure oopoer daily,
which la about tha capacity of tha plant,
is not to ba sneesed at By a nation short
of this all Important metal, even when
tba metal la only aacurabla ' at a cost

tha raw product, and It seeina that other
manufacturers of artlclea made largely
of copper may rarlv orders for their
products as wall. In order that Russia
may once more ba supplied with ammu
nition with which to try to regain tha
V.r id it has lost.
