 Important Mineral Districts in Cochise, Graham, Greenlee, Santa Cruz, Pima, Yuma, Mohave, Ya- vapai and Pinal counties have received no description whatever. It is believed however, that all these areas can be visited and des- cribed, if the full appropriation is made available, and work is started not later than this summer.

PARCELS POST.
Foreign Registry as Passing Into Mex leo Through Nogsles, Arizona,
 Post Office.

Last week Nogales was visited Mir. c. K. Marshall, an inspector of the United States Postal Depart ment, whose principal business at the time was the work of install lation of the Postal Savings Bank, but who gave the office at the same time a thorough inspection, check ing up the the accounts, inspecting the Money Order division, and also giving attention to the Foreign Re- gistry and Parcels Post business done with Mexico. As Nogales is the principal exchange post office between the United States and Mexico on the West Coast, and all the registered letters and packages going into the western states of the republic from the United States have to pass through this office, it was expected that the volume of business would appear decidedly large; but when the actual count showed that in twelve months there had passed into Mexico 84,700 registered letters and pack ages, the extent of the exchange was realized for the first time. The average weight of the parcels pass ing was found to he three pounds, aggregating more than 127 tons. Quite d volume of business for one third class post office.

OIL LAND LOCATIONS.
Follow The Placer Mining Law. As-
 sessment Work Required.


 The following summary of the federal laws affecting oil land loca- tions, drawn up for the benefit of locators in the Kramer Barstow field of California, will be of inter. est to persons as far as the public lands are concerned. It is by R. c. Andre, consulting engineer of the Western Engineering company of Los Angeles.
 The title to this land is held under original locations of the land made in compliance with the fed eral and state statutes governing the location of lands containing petroleum, oils and their products. This location under the law and the decisions gives vested inter- est in the original locators and their grantees (Gwilliim vs. Don nellan b, N. R. 482; 105 U. $. 45: McFeters vs. Pierson, 15 Colo. 205. ]
 The title is acquired by observ. ance of all the formula of notices and recording, and observance of the details for initiating title, as required by the acts of congress and the laws of the state and ter ritory in which the property is situated, and this estate is only lost by abandonment Merritt vs. Judd, 6 NJ. R. 62; IA Cal. 50; Mallet vs. Uncle Sam Co.,, 1. M. R. IS; 1 Nevada 188.)
 Oil lands are located under the placer mining laws, an act of con. gress having classified oil as mineral and subject to location as other minerals that are located under placer mining laws.
 Where one person takes up a claim under the placer mining law the size of the claim is limited to 20 acres, but the law permits an association of persons to locate claim in common, not exceeding l60 acres to the entire association. for one claim. This location by an association of l60 acres continues but a single claim (Miller vs. Chrisman, 73 Pac 1082) This placer claim must conform as near as possible with the rectangular subdivisions of the public lands.
 The acquisitions for holding the vested estate in an oil location or placer mining claim containing petroleum, oils, etc., are the same as in all other forms of placer mining claims, | e., annual labor to the extent of $100 a claim is required each year after the year of location. A single record of placer claim, whether of 20 acres by one person or 160 acres by an association of eight persons is a full claim and required the $100 annual expenditure to protect it nd GS00 fo nutant if Tn Ofbar

Explains Drawback to

Wesley M. Oler, the witty president Of
the Knickerbocker Ice Company, said
OF scientific management at a recent
dinner in New York:
Scientific management would increase
every employers profit by a thousand
per cent, provided-and this is the inn
portant point-provided that the en-
ploye would go in for 1t as zealously as
the boss.
"Would the employe take a very ar
dent interest In q system which would
cause him to do three or four times
more work than before-a system that
would quadruple his employers income
without benefiting his own?"
Mr.. Oler smiled.
I'll tell you q story" he said, "a
story very much to the point.

through New England last month in
his touring car with his wife and two
daughters. They stopped one day for
luncheon at a very nice hotel, and after
the meal was over my friend said to
