THE ORIGIN OF
A BORAX MINERAL

Tt is generally recognized that
boric acid in considerable quantities
is an original constituent in the wa
tiers and gases given off with volcanic
emanations. In fact, the Tuscan
lfumarolaes, in Italy, have been an
important commercial source of borie
acid for a long time, and in the past,
possibly even to the present time, al
most all the boric acid brought into
the European market has been deriv-
ed from this source. There is abund
ant evidence of the presence of boric
acid in volcanic e%manations in many
parts of the world. On the other
hand, boron is so rare a constituent
of roek-forming minerals that it forms
an almost inappreeiably small per
eentage of the earth S rock mass as a
whole.
A short study of the borate deposits
in Ventura county, California, sup
plen ented by more eursory examina-
ltions of similar deposits in the vieini-
lty of Death Valley, has been made
lby IToyt s. Gaze, of the United States
theological Survey, and a new theory
of the original of the deposits of
colemanite, or borate of lime, in these
regions has been advanced by Mr..
Gale in Professional Paper So, Part
A, recently published by the survey.
While this theory has not yet been en-

A New Soap Material

Settlers in western Kansas are cutting and marketing soap weed or Spanish bayonet to supply the demands of soap manufacturers. There are various plants in the Southwest locally known as soap weed, called amole the Mexicans, but the one gathered by the Kansas farmers technically known as yucca bacata, a species with exceptionally large fruits. is the most used. The soap manu- lecturers, however. utilize the roots and tops. and are pay ing $8 ton for the plant at the railway stations, while estimated cost of cutting, drying. baling, and hauling. ranges from $5 to $6, depending upon the distance to the railroad. Since a man can ordinarily get out ton day, the gathering of the soap weed affords an opportunity to secure fair days wages at a time when other ranch activities are not pressing. After cutting the soap weed is allowed to dry from 60 to 90 days and then is baied up in the ordinary broomcorn baling machine.
 Present day soap manufac- turers use this weed for toilet and wool soaps. Its qualities have been known for a long time but the harvesting of the soap weed is just now becoming com mercially important. There is a plentiful supply of it throughout southern Colorado. Arizona, New Mexico and Texas.
 Forest officers have considered this weed anuisance, since itisthe nature of the plant to spread over extensive areas and kill off other vegetation. 1t is particu- larly a pest on stock ranges. In line with it's policy of range inn provement, the government IS anxIons to rid the forage areas of all such injurious plants. and it is the hope of the forest off, cers that the commercial demand for soap weed will soon reach such proportions that it will not only take an otherwise useless product, but will also eradicate 1t from areas which could be utilized to better advantage for the supplying of forage to cattle and sheep.

TERMEYER SAYS
LIMITS Of BILL
ARE TOO CLOSE

WASHINGTON, May Samuel
Untermeyer. OF New York. told the
Newlands subcommittee OF the senate
Interstate commerce committee at the
hearing on the trust bill today that
they had too closely limited the defini-
ion OF interstate commerce to be regu-
lated. He offered an amendment which
would include all selling agencies,
pools and trade agreements. along
with the corporations at which the re-
strictiOns are directed.
Your biil does not seem TO include
those combinations that are not in
hundreds of these non-cOrporate COM
binations TO every interstate combina-
ton that has the corporate form"
Another suggestion made by Inter
meyer was thst the interstate trade
commission proposed in the bill should
deal only with combinations of a Ger
tain district. He said hundreds and
thousands Of interstate corporations
would be found too small for invCsti
cation by the commission. on the
other hand he believed that the So
600, 900 annual business chosen as the
minimum limit Of size of corporations
to be investigated under the house
bill was too high.
The power to investigate. Inter
meyer said. should not be restricted TO
cases in which inquiry was begun at
the initiative of the commission or at
the suggestion of the president, the at
torney general or either house of con-
gress.
al propose to allow any person suf-
feriEg an injury, to make complaint
upon which investigation may be be-
gum" he said.

mebt Fund.
The matter was brought before the
board Tuesday night by John A.
Myers. principal Of the eighth grade

alton, which recently took action IA
voring the pension fund.
The fund viii be created by "A special
tax OF one-fourth OF one mill upon
each dollar of taxable property in the
city, which is allowed by law accord
ing TO the last acts Of the legislature.
The amount thus raised will create a
sinking fund out OF which the pensions
will be paid. The amount raised by
taxes Will only constitute part OF the
entire fund. the remainder of which
Will be largely made up OF the sums
paid into the organization from time
TO time by the teachers who expect TO
benefit by the fund. According TO the
statute the proceeds of the special tax
shall be collected as other taxes are
collected by law. and shall be credited
10y the treasurer OF such city TO the
said teachers retirement fund and
shall not be used or devoted TO any
other than the purposes Of said fund"
A committee OF Pensioners from
st. Casimir's parish waited on the
board and presented a petition for a
public school in their district. The
board granted their petition, promis-
ing portable schools for this year and
q permanent one as soon as possible.

posed and voted upon TO fill the va
cancies in the grades and high school

DEMAND STATE
SEIZE AND WORK
ALL COAL MINES

DENVER. Col. May 6.-The situa-
ton when the state legislature cOnVen-
ed today was tense. The opinion pre-
vailed that the trouble between the ad-
ministration and the anti-administra-
ton forces resulting from the strike in
the coal mines would be brought TO a
head
Senator John T. Tierney, a progress
sive democrat, was expected to start
the pyrOtechnics by Introducing a res
oIutiOn demanding that the state seize
and operate the coal mines, most OF
which are on lands owned by the
state Tierney also was expected to
cXcOriate Governor AmmOns and the
state administration for alleged neg
lect OF duty and for what he termed
playing into the hands Of the coal
companies"
Another sensation was expected
when Mrs. Alma Lafferty submitted a
report upon the Investigation which
she and other members of a commit
tee appointed by the legislature, made
while at Ludlow. The report, il was
said. declares the state militia COM
mitted cold-blooded murder by burn
ing the Ludlow tent colony and II
holds the governor responsible.
Administration leaders said that the
bill providing for the organization OF
a state cOnstabulary would be intro
duced late today. This was expected
10 precipitate another big fight as the
progressive wings declared the bill
would give the governor power TO arm
mine guards in the state cOnStabulary
membership not being limited TO resi-
denCe in Colorado.
