<<US government forced gold mines to close during WWII (and many never reopened), while no such thing happened during WWI. >>

I'll bet this was the reason for the "WW-I" drop. I suspect with the losses of males(then the greatest part of miners were male) from WW-I + loss of total population from Spanish Flu pandemic there was a reduction in vail. labor needed to mine & everything else.

"In the end, 25 million people had died. Some estimates put the number as high as 37 million."
home.nycap.rr.com

or another opinion:
"Of the 57,000 Americans who died in WWI, 43,000 died as a result of Spanish influenza.WASHINGTON, D.C. — It was the fourth year of WWI, and Europe had been turned into a war-scarred landscape from the English Channel to the Crimea.
In that same year another threat began that would rival the war as the greatest killer in human history — Spanish influenza." (cont)

Here's some interesting corn production numbers / history which (excepting impact plus of minus by catastrophe) show these years of plenty of commodities might be drawing to an end:
