Departments Cooper
ate IN Timber Sale.

Cooperative arrangements an
nounced by the departments of
agriculture and the interior make
possible the offering for sale Of
$50 million feet of nnerchantahle
timber in southeastern Arizona.
The stand covers the south
eastern corner of the Sitgreaves
national forest, the northwest
edge Of the Apache national for
est and the Fort Apache Indian
reservation. Besides 600 million
feet Of yellow pine timber, there
is 80 million feet of less innpor-
tant species, including Douglas
fir, white fir, Englemann spruce,
Mexican white pine, blue spruce,
and cork bark fir.
Separate bids and contracts
must be made for the timber up
on the national forests and that
upon the Indian reservation.
Ten years will be allowed for the
removal of the timber after the
beginning of the cutting period,
although a sufficient period will
be given first for the construc-
tion of logging roads, mills, etc.
The opening up of this great
body of virgin timber is due to
the determination of the depart
ments of the interior and ag1-i-
culture to pool their acreage in
the locality described. BY com
bining timber on the two adjoin-
ing national forests, the Apache
and the Sitgreaves, with the
stand on the Fort Apache Indian
reservation, a natural logging
unit of sufficient timber is pre-
sented to warrant the extensive
and costly constructive work
which the marketing of the tim
Der requires.

ALUNITE IN ARI-

New Discoveries of Alunite Deposits
Potash-Rearins Mineral Found by I'm

ina. While the mineral is seldom
found pure in nature, its de
! posits are of importance as q
possible source of both potash
and alumina, and interest there
fore attaches to several Of the
recent discoveries of this mineral
| by geologists of the United
States geological survey.
A recent investigation Of the
Nogales region, in southern Ari-
zona, by F, c. Schrader, Of the
Survey, revealed deposit of al
unite. Analyses of rock samples
collected from the Evening Star
copper prospect by Mr.. Schrader
showed large percentages Of al
umina and potash, and while the
discovery Of the alunite was only
incidental to the investigation of
the copper deposits, it has served
to suggest the other alunite de-
posits may be found in this for
nation, which occupies an area
of many square miles. Mr.. Schra-
, der states that the property belt
in which the alunite was found
would commend itself for pro-
specting in case a practical pro-
cess IS developed for the reduc-
ton of alunite to soluble potash
salts, and in the light of the fact
that study af the alunite de-
posits near Marysvale, Utah, and
other parts of the Western states
by the United States Geological
Survey indicate that the mineral
alunite may become at some
future time an important source
of alumina. +" To those who are
interested in prospecting for al
unite, the simple test described
in Geological Survey Bulletin 511
would be of interest.
Another deposit Of alunite dis
covered by Mr.. Schrader is at
|
Bovard. New, where, he says,
the rock show as high as 10 to II
per cent of potash. The actual
extend Of the deposits of the
Bovard district is not known, as
the character of the rock was not
recognized by NJ. Schrader on the
ground, SO that no prediction Of
the possible value is justified. A
copy of Mr.. Schrader's report on
these discoveries Bulletin 540-1,
"Alunite in Arizona and Nevada

ton to the Director, Geological
Survey, Washington, D. C.

between the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties remaining practically the
same as before the Progressive party
came into existence. These counties
last year gave the Progressive ticket a
total of 32,357 votes. This year they
gave the Progressive candidates total
of 1919 votes. The Republican vote
in these counties this year was 1861.
Nassau county, the home of Nj

vote was the Progressive" vote.

Home, Sweet Home.

To knot my shoes together by the

To wad my stockings into them, and go
Down dusty roads | knew in bygone
Springs,
To. kick up dust and get stone

To leter on the bridge across the run
And dangle my feet there till day grew
And to drop pebbles gently one by one,
And watch the timid ninnows dart and
swim.
Those were the days, Rare days, sweet
days. and good:
The creeks sang songs. and their eacn
song was new:
Birds sang new songs. in every shady
wood.
And never since have skies been such d
blue
And never since have clouds been half SO
white.
And never since has life seemed half
so sweet,
Stars do not shine as stars then shone
at night.
Paths now are not SO coaxing to my

Why, l cain take a greenheart rod and

The costliest and whip IA woodland

For hours and hours, and never get u

AHd never see IL SDtCkitu beauty SIedI0
In the brown deeps; when in the olden
days
A wriggling worm hung on bent-pin
hook,
Tied to a cotton line would catch the
gaze
And lure the finest beauties from the
brook.
And | could whistle then, No mocker
now
Can half way mock the tunes whstlcd
shriH
Till music seemed to drip from every
bough
And echo back to me from the far hill
And now I cannot even purse my lips
To get more than the shadow of a
Groom.
My whistle now is discords, shrils and
skips.
And all-day trying would not bring 9
tune.
The years have given me more thar

Have gathered from the years which

And no man can win back to you'll
