ECONOMY WAVE Is FELT.
Senate Weather Station Combined
With That of House.

The wave of economy which sweeps
at times over the Capitol has carried
away another old Senate institution. at
least. it has carried away part of it,
For many years frst-class Gather
station has ben maintained at the Sen
ate end of the Capitol and another at
the House end. Besides a huge weather
map of the United States, harometers
wind gauges. waterfall recorders and
other instruments were maintained at
each station. and an employee of the
weather bureau was in charge
But now these instruments have been
removed from the Senate station. en-
cept the weather map, and one man
will now have charge of both the SEN
ate and House weather stations.
In former days the weather man in
charge of the Senate station used to
keep the watches of the senators regu-
lated by means of the special chro-
nometer installed. 1t used to be a Gus
tom for senators to take their watches
to him whenever they seemed to be
gaining or losing time.

THOUSAND MILLION FEET
OF LUMBER TO BE SOLD
Secretary Houston Approves Dis
posal Of Pine in Kaibab Ma
tional Forest.

Approximately thousand million feet
of western yellow pine lumber now
growing on the Kaibab national forest, in
northern Arizona, is to be disposed of by
the government, the sale having been ap-
proved by Secretary Houston of the De-
partment of Agriculture today.
This timber sale is said to be the
largest that has yet been made by the
government. The investment necessary
to handle the project. it is stated, will
run to at least $S,OO0, 900, and the work
of cutting and hauling out the timber
will require about twenty-five years In
order to get the lumber out a railroad
about 200 miles long will have to be
built, it is stated. This road will tap
hitherto untouched regions in southern
Utah and Colorado and will afford a
rail line from the north into the Grand
Canyon of the Colorado river, heretofore
accessible only from the south.
For several years the construction of
such railroad has been considered by
various capitalists. but it has been stated
that the lack of assured Immediate traf-'
Tic was an effectual barrier 1t is point
ed out, however. that a contract for d
billion feet of timber will overcome this
difficulty by providing a commodity for
transportation which, together with tour
ist and local traffic, Will place the project
on a paying basis practically from the
outset
