What makes something valuable?
Being useful, and being scarce. Natural gas, oil, coal, and uranium are all very useful, and considered valuable. Being scarce also makes an item valuable. Silver and platinum look much alike, but platinum is more rare than silver, and much more valuable. However, diamonds - one of the most valuable items in the world - have very little uses and are as scarce as dirt. Also, back in the 1600s, the tulip was HUGE in The Netherlands. I repeat - the TULIP was HUGE in The Netherlands. The prices of a single bulb raised to around 10 times the annual salary of a skilled craftsman. That is 10 years salary for a single flower. The truth is - the reason things gain value is demand. That's how much people are interested in getting something. It doesn't have to be scarce, it doesn't have to be awesome (i.e. pet rocks & TULIPS), the fact is people are interested in getting it - thus it has a value.

Why are trees resources scarce?
Energy resources are basically:* Coal (not scarce. There's still plenty of coal. The only problem is it releases carbon that has been buried for millions of years, adding it to the greenhouse layer)* Oil (beginning to run out. Many scientists think that "Peak Oil" [when it was plentiful] has already passed us by. Oil, like coal, also releases carbon. The world relies on oil to run transportation, so we need to find other ways quickly)* Natural gas (I think it's like oil, getting scarce. It also releases carbon.)* Uranium (not scarce. Good for producing fairly clean electricity, but it is dangerous and leaves residue that's very difficult to store safely. Occasionally has nuclear "accidents", the worst of which was Chernobyl.)* Solar Power (scarce because we have only recently realised its value. Scientists and inventors are desperately trying to get it going and fast.)* Wind Power (scarce. Same as Solar Power. Good as a second string for windy countries.)* Hydro-Power (Some countries have lots [70% of New Zealand's electricity comes from water]. Big dams are difficult and expensive, but good when they are running, so long as the rain keeps falling. Inventors are working hard at Tidal and Ocean Wave experiments, hoping for good news!)* Geothermal Power (scarce. Same reason as Solar Power. Lots of potential for some countries.)
What is the general economic condition of the country?
The general enconmic condition in this country is bad. It is rapidly declining. Some say we might be heading into another depression.Answer:Bad, and will get worse for a bit. It will improve, but I don't think we are going to see great big boom years like in the past. This is the "beginning" of the end years of the world. That means economies, weather, civility of people, are going to go downhill, and quickly, until Jesus returns, which is just around the corner !

What is a 1878 vetterli rifle in 10.4x47r caliber worth?
It all depends on condition. The Italian Vetterli-Vitali 1870/87 in 10.35x47R(10.4x47R) is more collectable than the 1915 conversion to 6.5 carcano and is safer to shoot. The ammo is very scarce, but can be hand loaded. In vg condition $500+ would be a fair price. They do seem to becoming more popular these days and I've had mine for years. It really is a fine looking rifle.
