BILL WILLIAMS FORK
A Mining District That Will be
Heard From in the Near Future.

The attention Of mining men has
been directed recently to a stretch of

been regarded az so remote that pros
pectors have neglected il, and until two
or three years ago It was explored but

one of the richest in the world. and the
/ belief long entertained by mining men
who had not visited the district, that
il was almost Inaccessible has been re-
moved 1t has b-en shown that with
comparatively small outlay wagon
roads can be constructed to railroads
! in central Arizona. and the lodges are
/ rich enough to justify transportation
of ore in this manner.

organized an exploring party and W ut

party spent thousands OF dollars in the
examination and returned with a glow

said, is literally ch cker'sd with lodea
and the diversity Of mineral is remark
able Copper gold and silver is present
everywhere, the lodges cropping on the
surface, and Galsna lodges showing al
most pure lead are numerous.
The exploration party discovered
scattered evidences of general mining
activity of former years in which Mex

Americans in Arizona. employed crude
devices and machinery In extracting
the mineral values from ores taken
from the ground by buTrowing on the

\ subject of growing interest is that
of the possibility of successfully fight
ing weeds with chemicals. 1t is told
that as long ago as 1880 it was found
at the Vermont station that the orange
hawkWeed, a serious pest in pastures
and meadows, could be destroyed with
out injury to the grass by sowing salt
over the land at the rate Of 5000
pounds per acre. At the same station
other chemicals afterWarl tested for
the eradication of weeds in walks,
drives and courts have been salt cop
per sulphate, kerosene, liver of sui
phur carbolIc acid, arsenic and sal
soda, arseuate of soda and two COM
mercial wood killers, the active prin-
ciple of which apparently was arsenic.
The weeds which it was sought to de-
stroy We're pantain, dandelion. chic
ory ragweed, knotweed and various
grasses.
All the chemicals We're applied in So
luton except the salt As in the case
Of the hawkweed experiments, salt
was found efficient in destroying all
the weeds when applied dry and in
large quantities,
When salt is used for this purpose
adjacent lawns should be protected
against washing, or they may be i'll
