WARREN W. LAMPORT.
When dust is on the ragweed, and the rag
weeds in yer nose.
When yer nose is full o'sneezin'. and the
sneezin's full O'wOes;
Then's come the time to pack your duds and
quickly git away;
Petoskey is the Mecca then. why don't you
come and stay?
When dust is on the rasweed. and the
rasweed's in yer nose.
And you keep a-sneezin'. sneezin'. till it
lifts you off your toes,
Why don't you buy yer ticket quick and git
across the land?
Psoskey is the Mecca then. for all the suf-
ferin' band.
Petoskey's got the atmosphere. without the
either stuff;
You don't 60 sneezin' round a. though you d
been a-takin' snuff;
But all the summer long you find you're
scoopin' in the health.
While hotels and the Midway are
scoopin' in the wealth.
There's lots o'fun an frOIic here. there s
lots Of things to do;
And If religions what you want. they GOT
that at Bay View.
So come along without delay. and don't for
cit yer tin;
The hotels an the Midway all'n kindly take
you in.
And when the frost has nipped che fields.
and the rasweed lost its grip,
Then you can pack yer duds asin and take
the homeward trip.
An don't fereit to take along some souv Mrs
Of yer stay.
And don't fergit we'd like to see you back

Do Your Best.

Girls and women who are starting
out Oh business, professional or in
dustrlal career, each and every one OF
them would do well to embroider a
motto IN large letters upon their in
ner consciousness. says the New Idea
Woman's s Magazine for August. The
words to be elaborately emblazoned
where none else may see, are these:
whatever comes 10 you TO be done,
do 1t with the best within you"
There comes time to all when we
have to perform big and little tasks
that are distasteful to US.
The girl who has college or even a
high-school education, in starting out
upon Q business life, will frequently
be called upon to do things that she
may consider beneath her dignity.
But that is no excuse for not doing
them well. The stenographer often
may be asked to do the errands of the
Office boy; the teacher may find that
ohC WAi hdNC w oWSCp OhC "ShOO'ioohi
floor,--a duty that the janitor has
carelessly failed to do; or the girl IN
the library may have to carry large
armful Of books, work which OBJ
viously belongs to the porter. None
OF these duties were included In the
bargain when the girl or woman
sought employment. For this reason
the performance Of the hated tasks is
done with a careless hand and no In
terested thought. But whenever a
task comes to your hand to be done,
no matter what it is, doit with the
best that is In you, for every task has
its useful lesson.
1t is just as honorable to wash
dishes well as to run "a bank success
fully. The girl who can paiut Il
beautiful picture should be as proud
of her ability to dust room thorough
ly az to portray sunset In brilliant
colors. The prophets OF the Bible
told us to do all things to the glory of
God. 1t does not matter whether
dishes are to be washed, floors to be
scrubbed, dinner cooked, poem
written or marble chiseled. Que act
OF service Is as good as another. All
depends on its performance.

Bennett Handle Companys Factory.

q month ago and Is now under full
headway. 1t Is q small modern plant
principally all new machinery, en-
ploying at present twenty-six men on
the grounds, and their product is
standard and toy maple broom hand
Nes. Their capacity is 14,000 handles
per day. A battery of four boilers
and two engines, one a large Corliss,
furnish the power. The logs are run
In from the "soup-hole," sawed int
strips, run through several machines
and In comparatively few minutes
from the time the log enters the build
ing, are conyerted into broom handles,
ready for the drying and polishing
process. From the cutting-room the
handles are carried on an endless belt
over to the drying-room where they
are placed in big drums, or "rattlers. I"
A hot-air pressure through the drums,
subjects the handles to the curing pre-
cess and the revolving drums produce
the polish On the handles. The stock
is kept in these drums for about "a
hours, and are then ready for sorting,
packing and chipping.
Already two carloads of the product
have been shipped and this week an
other car Is being loaded.
Our Board Of Trade inspected the
new enterprise few weeks ago and
found that 1t surpassed their expecta-
Itions or the requirements asked for
when site was pledged.
1t is the plan of the management,
providing markets will warrant it, to
add new machinery sometime ia the
future and put out other products be-
sides handles.

Greatest Lumber Cut.

More lumber Was cut in the United
States last year than in any other
year in its history. The enormous
amount of 1850, 1856 board feet was
produced, and the mill value of this
was 1921, 151, 1888. In addition, there
were produced II ,85S, $780, 600 shingles,
valued at 1924, I55, $50, and 1872, S07 900
lath, valued at 81, 400, $40. On the
whole, it is safe to say that the pres
ent annual lumber cut of the United
States approximates 40 billion feet,
and that the total mill value of the
lumber, lath and shingles each year
produced is not less than 500, 100000.
These figures give some idea of how
vast is the lumber industry and how
great is the demand for its products.
A glance at the kinds of lumber
produced shows clearly the passing
of white pine and oak, one the great
est softwood and the other the great
est hardwood which the forest has
ever grown. Since 1899 the cut of
white pine has fallen off more than
40 per cent, while that of white oak
has fallen off more than SO per cent.
Today yellow pine leads all other
woods in amount cut, while Douglas
fr-and this will be a surprise to
many-comes second. Since 1899 the
cut of Douglas fir has increased 1S6
per cent. Louisiana is the foremost
yellow pine state, with Texas, Missis.
sippi and Arkansas following in or
der. Washington produces by faI
the greatest amount of Douglas fir.
A comparison of the lumber-pro
ducing states shows that since 1895
there have been many changes ir
their relative rank. Washington
which in 1899 stood sixth, now leads
while Wisconsin, which eight years
ago led all others, is now third. II
the same period Oregon, Louisiana
Mississippi, Idaho and California
made great strides as lumber-produc
ing states, though, on the other hand
the amount produced in Michigan
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Georgia, Ken
lucky, Tennessee, Missouri, Indiana
and Ohio fell off anywhere from 20 tt
81 per cent.
The highest-period native woods
are walnut, hickory and ash and the
cheapest are larch and white fir
From the fact, however, that since
1899 the average increase in the
price of lumber has been 40 per cent
it will not be long before cheap woods
are few and far between.
Figures upon the lumber cut of the
United States in 1906 are contained
in Circular 122-of the Forest Service
which can be had upon application t

Coal Production for 1907 in New Mexico

The annual report of 10 E. Sheri-
dan, coal mine inspector for New
Mexico, for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1907, shows that coal is pro-
duced in eight counties in New Mex
leo, but that the great producing
counties are Colfax, with 1850, 527
tons and Mckinley with 615,847 tons.
The net output of the. territory was
2,221, 1884 tons, with an estimated
value of 50, 97S,278 at the mines. The
increase in production over the pre-
vious year was 63S,46O tons. The
value of the coal produced in the ter
ritory for the fiscal year was only
1925, 361 less than the value of the
gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc
produced in the territory during the
calendar year 1906. There were
thirty-one lives lost during the year
from mine accidents.

Imperial Valley Claims Jumped.

Out of 1900 land claims in the I'm
perial valley, about fifty improved
claims belonging to non-residents
have been jumped on the ground of
failure to comply with the law. A
recent decision of the commissioner
of the general land offices reyerses
the practice that office has held here
tofore that any person could take a
number of assignments from claim
ants so long as the total did not ex-
coed 800 acres. 1t is. now held that a
person can take but one assignment.
Many claims, including scores of
we'll developed farms are affected by
the reversal and a number of con-
tests are filed. The Mutual Water
companies have combined to send
representatives to Washington and
lay the matter before Secretary Gar
field. An appeal will be taken from
the decision of Commissioner Denne t
on the ground that the supreme court
holds that an established ruling of
a department of the government
cannot be annulled by a reversal of
the ruling. No apprehension is felt
by the claimants as to the outcome,
but it is considered necessary to pres
ent the matter to Secretary Garfield.

ORE STRIKE IN CHIRICAHUAS.
Bisbee-SOnOra Company Meeting With
Good Results at Paradise.

The first trip ever made to the
Chiricahuas and return by automobile
was made, when II. N. Reno, B. J.
Ames, P. T. Carmody, Fl. c.. Beumler
and F. B. Dorr made the trip to the
properties of the Bisbee-Sonora De-
velopment company with Mr.. Reno's
big touring car. The auto covered
the trip in fine time and the trip is a
delightful one. With the expendi
ture of little money between Doug
las and Rodeo, Cochise county can
have one of the best automobile roads
in Arizona.
The Bisbee-Sonora cut the big
ledge in the Carmody tunnel at dis
lance of 1872 feet, 8 inches. The
company has been driving this tun-
mel to cut the ledge which measures
go odd feet at the surface, the ore
returns from the surface and shafts
ten and fifteen feet never running
under $40. The ore encountered in
the tunnel is the same ore as the sur
face which proved the ledge is in
place. The company expected to
cut the ledge at ISL feet and missed
calculations only by twenty inches.
There is no further question that
this is the biggest ore body which
has ever been encountered in the
Chiricahua mountains.
The ore in this mine runs in cop
per, silver and gold, with copper pre-
dominating
The company is now placing power
drills on the property and an aerial
tramway will be installed running
from the tunnel to the base of the
mountain as som as this machinery
can be placed at the mine.
At the Paradise mining property
another of the Bisbee-Sonora prop
critics, the company has gone through
ledge of eight feet and are still in
ore. The ore of this property runs
in gold, silver and copper, with silver
predominating A shaft has beer
sunk on this property l47 feet when
a crosscut was made to catch the
ledge. The high grade ore in this
ledge has just been reached.
The company is preparing to ship
this ore to the Copper Queen smelteI
as early as possible.
The Chiricahua mountains will
doubtless be the next big producing
district and this season will see great
actiYity.l
