In his contribution The Deer Creek (Ariz.) Coal Field" ," Mr. Marian Camp bell in Contributions to EcoEOmic Geology, r. ;. Eullctin No. 22j. sets forth some kceulv interesting and en- couraging facts To those interested in the new NOlder coal fields Of Morenci, says the Standard. The value of the report in connection with the Clifton Morcnci district k increased by the fact that ihe Deer Creek formation is almost identical in general character to ttat prevailing in the Mulder field, and that the development work so far done in the Molder district tends to continue the similarity. Further, the Deer Creek field, l60 miles down the Gila from the MOldcr field. is patenlly t continuation Ot the latter. the trend of the formation and the dip of the veins in both fields being similar. Mr. Campbell in several places in h.s re- port points to the location of the field in the heart Of a great copper belt, in- cluding Globe, Clifton Morenci and Bisbce in it's outer circle, and draws the conclusion repeatedly that even if :ts coal be Of very low grade it would bv reason Of its very close touch with the great consuming market at home, have high value commercially. This being true of Deer Creek. application to the Morcnci field is still more forci- ble, inasmuch as successful develop mcnt of it. in the extensive wa that there in abundant room for capital to engage itself. would put coal at the doors of three great reduction plants bv rail haul of two miles to one and ten miles hv roundabout route ;o the other two, besides putting coal on direct line of the Phelps-Dodgc railroads to Bis bee, Douglas and Mexico plants, and throwing coal within fifteen miles of rail to the same company's Globe camp. The fact of consumption of above 1000 tons of coal per month in the Clifton Morcnci camp alone, at d cost of from SS to g. 70 per ton is sulicient to verify MT Campbell's belief that very low grade coal, produced near home, could he worked to high advantage in this great minercl section. Cost of mining and delivery from the Molder field to the Clifton N oreuci camp would not exceed sl.33 per ton, between which and S9 per ton there is marked oppor- tuuity for increase of dividend pay mpntS

\ good suggestion for Arizona is found in the following: James w. Abbott of Denver, head of the good roads work for the federal government in the Rocky mountain division, made the following statement afte~ making d trip over the scenic route building between Santa Fe and Los Vegas. Al though denied statehood, it remains for New Mexico to give to America the most notable industrial triumph of the past few years. The mountain road built from Las Vegas by convict laber is the best example Of road build ing in my division, which extends
 from British Columbia to Mexico and
 from Colorado to California, aud the fact that it was constructed by convicts proved the success of an experiment which no state has yet had the cour- age to undertake. Nothing has in il so much of promise for the public roads of the United States as the idea of the employment of convict labor g

The total dividends Of the Camp Bird mine, at Ouray, Col. for the year past was 24 per cent. of the capi- tai stock. This mine has produced a total of 39, GOO, ,000, and yet was sold to the English Venture corporation for B, ,000. 900, as against a much heavier valuation placed upon the Stratton's Independence when it passed into the control of the same interests. The value, gross, of the reserves blocked oLt in this mine at the present time is estimated at S6,0SO 63l. Accepting the basis of past work for computation of the profit in this reserve, there should be left net for the company S4,- 4I2 i33 in handling the reserve indi- cated. The reserve will last three years and three months at the present milling rate. Development is uot thorough on the mine as yet. giving large uneXplored area for future work Of the management, and to add to the immense profits assured owners of this brilliant producer.

Ostrich Has Become Acclimated on the
 Southern Arizona Claims.

A letter received in this city last week says that the ostrich industry in the Salt River valley, Arizona, l. fast becoming one of la~ge commercial i'm portauce. When the ostrich was in- troduced from south Africa. eleven years ago. it was feared the cXperI- ment would proye failure. The change Of food and climate did not agree with the birds, and very little progress was made during the hr7t years. The business also i7 one that requires experience. and until those engaged in iL had learned everything worth knowing about ostrich culture they made little head way.
 A About five year ago the birds had become acclimated, their care was more thoroughly understood and they began to thrive. lt is believed that they are doing better in the salt river valley than ID South Africa. At any rate the American Ostriche7 are sey- eral inche. taller than those of South Africa and their fca'hcr7 are Of some what finer quality. Fuli grown they stand eight feet high and weigh 200 pounds. The rich, black, glo-sy feath- CTS of the male are far superior in quality co the drab pluma2e of the female. aud the feathers pluckcd every eight months are sold d. high a7 Sl2j d pound ia the eastern markets.

The Flag.

The following extract from recent renee, Kansas, marks the hightide of patriotic sentiment, and is deserving of place among literary gems:
 '.i am man with a country. II l see the flag in unending line flung high up the city's walls, shining and shimmerine all day lorg. it is my flag, bless God, T.. far out on the bleak desert. pa-ched, barren and desc ate. I see it fuff and fi0tter above the whitened adobe walls it is my flag r fa- at sea. beneath the unclouded sky, the sun silveriug the endless pillows, it rises out of the eternal depths, all beauty Of night, all grandeur of day in its riggl;rg fold,
 My hood may chill,
 My eyes may fill.
 My heart may still,
 for it is my flag that cre,ts the ocean. If, in a strange and alien land. alone, solitary and homesick, the pomp of royalty ou every hand,
 suddenly S0OGlu burst -h Nit"'
 Way up the shaded avenue,
 The glory red and white and blue
 Oh. for the Kaiser and his crown
 On me aud mine to then look down!
 I'd lift my bead and proudly say:
 'That is my flag you see today"
 And I would tell his ermined queen,
 Of all the heavens and earth bet'wn,
 It is the grandest thing that flies
 Der land or sea beneath the skies Beyond all this, when fades the world. and the last hour is here, when relationship ends and love becomes only memory; when the eye falters and the noon grows nigh and the lid --thtfts,, when Jhe tongue is stilled and over the heart my hands are crossed, let this flag owned in life shade my death from all eyes, and hide me in its undying glory"
