PHoENIX, ARIZONA. JUNE l. 1901.

The proposition made by the Los Angeles Times representative to the
 board of trade. to ad- ITS vertise the Salt River WITH THE valley in its forth SUPERVISORS. coming special edition,
 has been pre- esented to the board of supervisors for ac- tion under it's authority to ap- propriate funds for the purposes of the office of commissioner of immigration. The board has taken the matter unded consideration and will make an order for or against the proposition next Monday.
 The Republican regrets that the sevice offered by the Los Angeles Times cannot be performed by an Ari- zona newspaper so effectively as the Times can perform it. and we may say that there is no newspaper or the Pa cific coast which is in a position to render so much service. Though other papers have a larger daily circu'ation they do not make a speciality of spec ial editions as the Times does. It has therefore come to be recognized in the east as the chief source of information regarding the Pacific coast and the whole southwest.
 We understand that the Times offers to pre- pare such a story of the Salt River valley as the board of trade will approve. and to mail 5000 copies to such points as the board may suggest. The postage on each paper, if sent out at other than the second-class rate, would cost the board four cents each. The Times will pay the postage. which to the board would be equivalent to sl20 It would cost not less than sl00 to prepare the Salt River valley matter for this edition. The Tlmss will do that at its own expense. The matter will be copiously Illustrated at consid- erable expense, and the cuts used will afterward become the property of ths. board.
 It will thus be easily seen that the Sat River valley write-up is not q money-making proposition. since all the Times asks is $500. It desires to publish a symmetrical story of Ari- zona and needs the incident of the Salt River valley.
 We may add, and it is the experience of newspaper publishers everywhere. that special editions are not directly profitable. For that reason compara- lively few newspapers indulge in them. The Times. however, choosss this way to advertise itself. and We believe that this valley may become partner in the enterprise with profit

RAWHIDE IN COMMERCE.

Useful Things.

zone of the most curious of the
many things made nowadays of raw
hide" said a man who handles such ar
ticles in his business, sis the rawhide
pinion, or cogwheel. You might think
that the teeth of such a wheel would
break down and wear off quicker than
those of an iron wheel; but s a mat
ter of fact they do not break, and a
rawhide pinion will wear as long as
an iron pinion, if not longer.
'Such pinions are made of many
layers of rawhide pressed solidly to-
Eether, and bolted through and
through to metal plates placed on the
sides. The teeth cut across the face
of the wheel thus formed are, of
course, each composed of many lay
ers of the thoroughly compacted raw
hide standing edgewise.
"Rawhide pinions are used for many
purposes. One of their great adj
vantages is found in their noiseless-
ness. They are used in the machine
shops against i n gear, so as to make
less noise; ey are used for motor
pinions on street railway cars, and so
on.
Another rather curious though now
some what common use for rawhide is
in the making of mauls and mal!ets
having heads of rawhide, and hide
faced hammers. These are put to a
great variety of uses, as for pounding
on dies and punches and on polished
metal surfaces.
"Rawhide is used for bell cord in
street ears, for all manner of straps
and for shoe and boot laces. 1t is
used in the manufacture of artificial
limbs, and for trunk handles and for
trunk binding, for washers, for many
sorts of harness and saddlery goods,
and for whips and lariats, and not the
least of its uses is in the manufacture
of various kinds and all sizes of belt
ing."-N. Y. Sun.

As the accompanying picture shows,
this motor is driven very much. in the
same manner as horse, and for this
reason it is claimed that it will com
mend itself specially TO women. The
reins are so adapted that when either
is pulled the motor is at once guided
to that side and when both are pulled
a brake is set in motion.
This arrangement is certainly more
simple and artistic than the ordinary
method of guiding and controlling an
automobile, but whether it will work
in practice remains to be seen.-N. Y.

A CURIOUS DISCOVERY.
German Physician Claims That
Weather Changes Arc Indicated
by Metal Wires.

The sound made by the wind as it
passes through telegraph or telephone
wires is familiar one to many, but
probably few people have thought
that the varia tions in pitch of that
sound might foretell changes in the
weather, says the Western Electrician.
Yet this is the curious discovery that
is credited to German physician, DR..
Eydam. As this gentleman was wait
ing for a train at a country station the
shrill sound of the wind passing
though the telegraph wires nearby re-
minded him that he had frequently
heard similar sound either immedi-
ately before or after storm or
heavy fa.l of rain or snow, and it ma
turally occurred to him to try TO ascer-
tain whether there was any connection
between the sound and such changes
in the weather. AS a heavy shower of
rain fell within As hours after he had
heard the sound at the railroad sta
ton, he concluded that there was such
connection, and he then determined
to investigate the matter thoroughly.
As a result, the physician now main
tains, first, that any unusual disturb
ance in the telegraph wires is an in
fallible indication of bad weather, and,
second, that the nature of the changes
in the atmosphere may be learned
from the sound which the wind makes
when passing through the wires. Thus
deep sound, he says, which is of con-
siderable or medium strength, indi-
Gates that there will be Slight showers
of rain, with moderate Winds, within
from so to 4S hours. and, on the other
hand, a sharp, shrill sound is the sure
token of heavy storm, which will be
accompanied by much lain or snow.
The physicians great discovery can
probably be easily explained by study
of the expansion and contraction of
metal wires as affected by the barome-
trio changes in the atmosphere.

Preserving Wood from Decay

Consular Agent Johnson, at STAN
bridge, Canada, reports to the Wash
ington government a method recently
invented Tor preserving wood from
decay. 1t appears to differ from
other processes OF curing railway
ties and rendering wood freproof,
although it possesses the merits Of
them both. The sap is first eXtr2 cted
from the timber, and then the latter
is impregnated with chemicals. This
treatment makes the wood fireproof,
impervious to attacks of insects and
capable of resisting salt or other wa
ters. Beech wood can be made suit
able for railway sleepers or for boot
and shoe lasts. If necessary, the i'm
pregnating plant can be used a. the
telling ground. The cost of impreg-
mating is about two cents per cubic
foot; cost of plant, about ST. 900.
