SENATORS SWORN IN.

Arizona's and New Mexico's four
senators were sworn in Tuesday. The
credentials of the New Mexico SEN
ators were presented by Senators
Warren of Wyoming and Smith of
Michigan and those of the Arizona
senators by Senators Shively of In
diana and Culbertson of Texas. Sen
ators Catron and Ashurst were chos-
en- to serve until 1917, Fall until 1918
and Smith until 1915
Two ballot boxes We're drafted for
the lottery which determined the
lengths of their respective senatorial
terms. Each box contained a blank
and a numbered slip, the Arizona sell
ators drawing in alphabetical order
from one box, and the New MeNicans
from the other.
The one drawing No in each
case will serve until March 3, 1917.
In a separate box were placed pap
SIS NO. dllu u, WHICH UnG remaining
senators drew, No. 2 to serve until
March 3. 1915, and No. 3 until March
3, 1918.
Senator CatrOn thinks the prize is
No 3 and that it might prove the
luckiest because the term would ex-
pire during the same session of the
New Mexico legislature that elected
the senators at this time, thus prob
ably insuring the return of the same
man from New Mexico for a full term
of six years

AVIATOR RODGERS KILLED.

LONG BEACH, April 3.-Calbraith
P Rodgers, rans-continental flyer
and first man to cross the American
continent in an areoplane, was killed
here this afternoon as he was do
ing the dip out over the pier.
Rising to a height of 200 feet,
Rodgers sailed out over the pier,
which was covered by thousands of
fishermen, and began stunts in mid
air over the ocean. Suddenly he wa
seen to dip the head of the machine
nearly straight down, and start for
the edge of the pier.
The huge craft came down at
lightning speed, and sailing inshore
struck just at the edge of the surf
where the water is not more than
two feet deep. The impact was fear
full Many men rushed to his aid
and lifted Rodgers out of the wreck.
He was bleeding at the mouth and
after he was removed from the pier
to the hospital, he died.

OFFICIAL SURVEY
OF RESERVATION
COMPLETED SATURDAY BY LAND
OFFICE SURVEYORS.
Work Was Begun November S, 1911,
and Completed March 31.-Survey
100000 Acres of lrrigabIe Land.

The government survey Of the
Colorado River Indian reservation wa1
completed last Saturday, thus cOnclud
ing one of the most important steps
necessary for it's ultimate opening to
entry and settlement The surveyor
in charge, G. P. Harrington, Will
send i'm the last of his notes within
the next two weeks, and it is expect
ed that in sixty days thereafter Of
ficial maps of the survey will be
available for distribution.
The work was begun November 5,
1911, and completed March 81, 1912,
approximately five months being con-
sumed in completing the survey. All
of the work on the Arizona side, by
far the largest of the whole, was un-
der The supervision of G. p. Harring
ton, while that part of the reserva-
tion lying on the California side OF
the river was under the supervision
of Robert A Farmer
Both crews were laid off Saturday
night, with orders to report for duty
May |. Farmers crew will go
Gladeloupe, N. NJ, and Harrington
men to Pyramid Lake. Nevada. The
outfits will be shipped within the
next week or ten days. Disbursin2
Agent Paul NJ. Bryan having remain
ed 20 attend to the shipping.
Two of the most interesting facts
disclosed by the survey have been
the approximate area of irrigable land
contained i'm the reservation and lnC
general character of the Land itself.
According to the official notes ther
are approximately 10000 acres o.
land capable of irrigation, exclusive
OF a large area which could be re-
claimed by the construction of le-
vee along the east bank of the river
Such a levee is contemplated by the
Greeley Arizona Irrigation company
in its plan of general reclamation for
this project. On the whole the land
lis quite level and capable of being
put in a condition for cultivation al
very low cost per acre.

COOSEBONE PROPHECIES

Thanksgiving Day is usually the time
when the goosebone weather prophets
make their predictions for the winter. In
dicaii for the winter of l9I2-I91a. sc-
cording to the markings of the breastbone
OF a goose Matched 10 Berks, Pa, last
spring, are that the weatuer will be mild
up to the holidays. after which severe
cold is promised, with several bIizzards.
Spring will be late. Pleasant weather
will prevail during the Christmas noli-
days. These are the predictions of
Reading, Pa, weather prophet after read
ing the goosebone. John A. Ksibach.
one OF Readings most expert eoosebone
weather prophets, who has followed the
predictions of Elias HaItz, the original
goosebone man, since 1895. says be always
has found his representations correct.
Every Thanksgiving Dav since 1905 Mr..
Kalbach has examined bone in order to
make comparison with Mr.. Hartz's meas
urements. From a gander OF the 1912
season, which formed part of Mr.. Kali
bach's Thanksgiving dinner, a mild win
ter is predicted, according to his reading
of the marking, The bone is similar 10
color to that of last year, showing that the
cold spell will not come much before New
Year, with mild weather in February and
and another blast of cold in March.

USEFUL THINGS TO KNOW

To keep thread or silk from knotting
as you sew try sosping it with bit Of
pure white soap.
Shrink wooden darning yarn 10 the
steam of tea kettle before meading the
stockings with it.
Before peeling onions, let theba stand
in water, then peel, and the eyes viii
not smart so badly.
Use old catalogues for pads for the kit
chen table or cupboard or to try the fat
irons on.
Scatter grated white potato over the
carpets if you wish to clean them and
freshen their colors.
To take ink spots out of colored' ma
terials, cover with tallow before sending
to the laundry.
Use bicycle pump to clean such parts
Of the sewing machine as you cannot reach
with cloth.
To keep clothespins from freezing to
the clothes put two handiuis Of Salt in
your bluing water.
To take castor oil easily put orange

MAPLE SUGAR

From the time the earliest explorer
discovered Indians making sugar from the
maple tree until the present day, the
production of maple sugar has been an
important industry in the United States
is the interesting information contained
in the Farmers Bulletin SIG, soon to be
issued by Secretary Wilson. The industry
is purely American, Canada being the
only country outside OF the United States
that produces the product. The bulletin
says:
Maple sugar and maple syrup are con-
sidered delicaeies and are not produced
in such quantities as formerly. The aggre.
gate of all pure maple products and the
many limitations may be the same, for it
is said that were all the maple products
cut down, and thus the supply of maple
sap cut off, no drop in the quantity of
syrup or sugar would de noted. Within
the last six or seven years there has deem
a renewed tendency toward the product
ion of better grade of maple products.
''Maple syrup or maple sugar prepared
by the best methods is a light-colored,
pleassnt-tasting product Contrary charac
teristiCs are the result of uncleanly me-
thods and possibly sour sap in ninetynine
cases out of hundred, and were manu-
facturers to take greater care in their me-
thods their results would show improve
ments This better grade may not appeal
to many people who have been accustom-
ed to the dark, stronger grades"
In relation to the present growth of the
sugar maple the bulletin states:
"Within its wide range the sugar maple
appears as a precominant tree only in the
New England States, New York, South
ern Canada, Northern and Western Penn
syIvania aud in parts of Ohio, Indiana,
Illinois. Michigan, Wisconsin, and Min
nesota. In the Southern Appalachians
it occurs in scattered bodies where climate
conditions are eimiliar to those of the
North. In the extreme northern part of
New York State auo the adjacent district
of Quebec the forest growth is ofteh al
most pure maple, and even considerably
further south, where beech and birch be-
come associate trees the sugar maple
holds its own as the dominant species. In
Northern Pennsylvania, at an altitude of
over I 900 feet, the mixture is much the
same as it is in New York. In Ohio, To-
diana and Illinois similar condition is
found; but as the billy country disappears
the maple retreats to the richer and dam
per soils, leaving great areas to the oaks
and chestnuts."

THE BUSINESS SITUATION

Bradstreet's says: "Trade still displays
considerable vigor, irregularity or slack
ness in this or that quarter being offset
by increased or sustained activity in many
lines. Thus orders for future delivery
continue on an extensive scale, with holi-
day distribution probably exceeds that of
any previous season. Incidentally job.
bers have done well wish holiday special
ties. On the other hand, sales of winter
weight goods have been hampered over a
wide area by unsessonably mild weather
and therefore, recorders received by job
bers are hardly up to seasonable expecta-
tions. Sentiment is still optimistic, which
fact is corroborated by steady buying for
future account, 10 the dry goods line
scarcity of various makes of goods is very
noteworthy. Demand, taking the coun-
try as whole, shows no appreciable let
up.
Manufacturers are very busy; short
ages of hep still affect textile outputs,
North and South, and outdoor operations
continue at brisk rate, thanks to mild
weather.
"In the iron and steel lines, pig iron is
less active and buying of steel has abated
somewhat, but that industry is so we'll
filed up with orders, some plants being
booked tor the first half of next year and
others for larger period, that a lull is
not expected. Collection are good, and
even the Southern reports are more cheer
full, except at points adversely affected
by short cotton crop.
Business failures in the Uoited States
for ths week ended December 5 were ass
againt 247 last week 267 in the like week
of 1911, 267 in 1910, 259 in 1909 and 2ss
in 1908. Business failures in Canada for
the week terminating with Thursday
number 2S, against Is lass week, and 80
in the corresponding week last year"
