Greenland may be regarded as one of the few countries which still present problems of primary importance to the explorer. Known to Europeans since the days of Erik the Red, the wandering Viking who is credited with discovering and colonizing the region in the latter part of the 1oth century, the northern and northeastern outlines of this great continental area are still represented on our maps by lines of conjectural rather than ascertained exactness. Yet, in view of the physical disadvantages attending research in the region, the achievements of the past cannot be lightly estimated and the eventual survey of the unknown area may justly be regarded as a geographical work requiring the highest qualities on the part of the Arctic traveller. Interest in Greenland exploration has been stimulated in America within the last four years, by the two expeditions of Civil Engineer Robert E. Peary, U. S....

Excerpt: ...tons of sulphur are lost and wasted annually by turning these fumes loose over the land, much to the detriment of vegetation. In phosphates the south has almost a natural monopoly. Late statistics show Florida, South Carolina and Tennessee producing together over 2,700,000 tons, while all other states of the union produced but 5,000 tons in the year. This is not all the advantage accruing to the south in the phosphate industry. The native rock supply comes from the same region that is rich in pyrite. Pyrite is roasted to make sulphuric acid, and phosphate rock can only be made available for fertilizer by treatment with this acid. Coal to roast the pyrite, pyrite to be roasted and phosphate to be treated all are often found in close proximity; and the poorer well-worn soils of Virginia and southward demanding phosphate fertilizer, constitute a rare combination for the building up of a large industry. We have been so thriftless in the past as to send our pyrite to England to be made into acid, and our phosphate rock to be treated; and then have generously purchased the fertilizers from the English manufacturers, but we are learning. Alabama produces one half of all graphite mined in the United States and has great reserves. At present this product is mostly manufactured in the north. Georgia produces one half the ochers and mineral paint pigments found in the country. The south undisturbed by glaciers, has great depth of residual soils, ochers, and decayed rock far surpassing any northern states. Manganese used extensively and increasingly in the manufacture of hard alloys for tools, safes and other purposes, is found in Georgia, Virginia and Arkansas. Our whole American production comes mainly from these three states. Chromium similarly...
