REINFORCED CONCRETE TESTS

The increasing use of reinforced
concrete as a building material has
led to numerous Investigations of it's
strength when variously prepared
and when subjected to various condi-
tions. Perhaps the most elaborate
series of tests is that now being car
ried on by the United States Geo.
logical Survey, which has recently
published bulletin 344) prelimi-
nary report on the subject. A full
report, with thorough analysis of
the result, will be published after
the 52-week tests are completed.
The attempt has been made to
bring out the comparative strength
of gravel, granite, limestone and
cinders for use in concrete, and the
effect of age and consistency on the
strength and on the stiffness.
No attempt has been made in this
preliminary report, however to gen.
eralize the results of the tests, or to
draw any conclusions, however war
ranted they may appear from an ex-
animation of the test data. 1t is
hoped that the matter presented
will provoke discussion, and in order
to promote this end extended ex-
pressions of opinion or attempted
applications of theory to results
have been avoided. A running COM
mentary on the results of the tests,
however, emphasizing matters of
particular interest and indicating a
few points that might lead to inter-
esting analysis, is included.
The bulletin, which is by Richard
l.. Humphrey, may be had free of
charge on application to the Direc-
tor, United States Geological Sur
vey, Washington, D. C.

IRRIGATION CONGRESS

EDITOR GUARDIAN:-Your cores
pondent was among the fifteen hun
dred delegates who attended the
National Irrigation Congress, held
in Spokane.
Arizona was pretty well repre-
sented when you take into consider
alton the distant and expensive
journey. From ten to twelve mem
bers met each day in our Arizona
delegation. Hon. B. A. Fowler, of
Phoenix, secretary of the congress,
met with US. DR.. Chandler, of
Mesa City, was made chairman of
the delegation. The writer was
chosen vice president from Arizona
for the ensuing year.
Many very prominent men OF this
and foreign nations were present
and took part, among whom were
members of the presidents cabinet,
heads of departments, members of
congress, governors and representa-
tives of other nations, and presi-
dents of railroad companies and
business organizations. All of which,
generally speaking, was good; but
personal and sectional interests
made themselves manifest almost
too much to be of general good.
Irrigation has grown to such pre-
portions that it is one of the great
est questions of the age. Nor does
it stop merely at watering the land
in our arid districts, it means con-
servation in its broadest term. Pro-
tect the forest, and thereby hold
back the floods, and draining of the
wet lands of the south, all belong
to this great question.
Nor is it possible, in short arti-
Gle like this, to give our readers
more than a passing glimpse of the
great question of irrigation, as dis
cussed in the congress by the ablest
speakers of the age. want to i'm
press upon my readers, at least, the
Importance of our fair Territory be-
ing represented at such gatherings.
We are not as public spirited as we
should be. There are a few who
have at heart the general welfare
of our Territory. Such men are
permitted not only to give their
valuable time, but pay their own
expenses, and follow up such organ
izations, that our Territory and the
interests of her people might be
looked after. Arizona is honored
twice. Hon. B. A. Fowler was sec
retary of the seventeenth national
congress, and is now elected presi-
dent of the eighteenth session, which
is to meet at Pueblo, Colo, next
summer.

THE WATER POWER TRUST

Itwas in the closing days of his ad
ministration that Roosevelt learned
of the wholesale seizing of water
powers by the then forming water
power trust.
He took sharp action to discon,
cert their plans. He was convinced
that the occasion called for the ex,
tremest exercise Of his prerogatives.
Water power in Mr.. Roosevelt's
opinion, will some day supersede
coal and steam. The great western
water powers will run the railroads
of the future and be sent across the
plains to the mills and factories.
They will pump floods of water upon
millions of acres of arid land and
make new homes for multitudes of
Americans.
Mr.. Roosevelt foresaw that if a
private combination should get COM
plete control of this gigantic energy,
it might in the future hold the very
life of the nation in its extortionate
grasp.
Therefore it was, that on the last
day of the Roosevelt administra-
ton, 1S6,000,000 acres of debatable
ground was withdrawn from the
reach of land grabbers.
1t was said that one of the first
things done by Mr.. Ballinger after
he was sworn into the cabinet was
to begin the turning back of this
land to the grab-bag some tech.
nical grounds not yet generally un-
derstood.
1t is said that the Amalgamated
Copper Company, with power sites
secured since Roosevelt left office,
is now in absolute possession of the
Missouri river from Three Forks, in
Southwestern Montana, to the alkali
plains west of Great Falls. This
river holds probably the most valu-
able water power site in the country.
These, all in the hands of the
trust, give it power to shut out
competition for all time, and to
compel every home, farm and fac
tory within an area of thousands of
square miles to pay tribute to ex-
Senator Clark, the Guggenheims
and their associates.
The American congratulates the
country that, in the midst of the
nice technicalities Of the Interior
Department, we at least have
Pinchot to speak word for the
more solid interests of civilization.

FEEDING VALUE OF
ALFALFA HAY

1t is always good thing to have
something to measure by. The De-
partment of Agriculture at Wash
ington in Bulletin 339, gives the fol.
lowing judgment as to the money
value of alfalfa and other kinds of
hay in comparison.
Alfalfa hay, $20.l6; clover hay,
$14.12; timothy hay; $3.50; wheat
bran, $22.S0; shelled corn, $2O.16.
Now take those figures as guide
line and note how widely at variance
from them are the judgments of
farmer feeders and general pur-
chasers, yet we believe in the main
they are correct. Most people will
pay more for timothy hay than they
would for alfalfa and clover.
When the farmer gets this ques-
ton of feeding value down squarely
in his mind, he will reverse many of
his judgments. Alfalfa is Won
