HIS PERIOD OF ENJOYMENT
Farmer Surely Had Earned Rest, But
He Waited Just a Little
Bit Too Long.

Once there lived q farmer who
worked SO hard he was too tired to go
to church on Sunday, says Frank Tel
ford in Farm and Fireside. His hired
lei refused to stand for the first
and last call to breakfast at 3:45 in
the morning and left before the end
OF the week. His wife MIXED the
COWS and hoed the garden because
help was SO hard to keep. The farm
er voted against hard roads,, and when
he was elected to the school board
hired for teacher a young girl just out
of high school, because she would
TAX the job for $50 month. In
short, he squeezed the dollars SO hard
the eagle screamed. He would steal
acorns from a blind pig.
When the farmer was fifty he had
a half section Of good black land In
the corn belt and money in the bank.
He moved to town to enjoy a hard
earned rest. But his stomach was SO
tired Of corn bread and bacon that It
went on a strike and the farmer ate
milk toast. He could predict a storm
before the first cloud appeared. by
the creaking Of his joints, and he had
to call for help to turn over In bed.
One day his doctor said he had made
enough money to buy a new touring
a and the farmer died Of heart dis.

CONSUMPTION OF ARSENIC

The consumption of white arsenic
in the United States in 1913 amount
ed to about 1900 tons, valued at
$4,000. of which 2,513 tons, val
ued at $159,236, was produced in
this country as a by-product from
copper and precious metal smelters
and the remainder was imported
largely from European countries.
For the present imports of arsenic
will undoubtedly be seriously dimin-
ished by the European war. The
American smelters a save much
more arsenic than they do now, for
the cheapness of the product has
prevented the saving of all that was
practicable, and the war would seem
to open the way for an increase in
the American output.
Works for the exclusive produc-
ton of arsenic have been erected at
only two places in the United States
Va, and Mineral. Wash.
1t is difficult for such plants to pro-
duce arsenic to be Sod in competi-
ton with the b%y-product of the
smelters, except in periods of high
prices such as may again prevail IL
the war and it's industrial disturb
ances are long continued.

sADIUM ORE DEPOSIT
IN PENNSYLVANIA

With the prominence given to the
subject of radium, some interest at
taches to a brief report by Edgar T.
Wherry describing a deposit of car-
hottie near Mauch Chunk, Pa, pub
lished as Bulletin 5S0-H of the Unit
ed States geological survey. Carno-
lite is one of the radium-bearing
minerals, and this deposit is believ-
ed to have been formed by precipi-
tation from the ground water and
can now be seen in process Of forma-
ton where water trickles out through
cracks in the rocks. The deposit Is
of significant interest, but the pres
ent knowledge regarding it is insult
ficient to warrant any statement as
to its workability. So far as is now
known the total area covered by the
carnolite-bearing lenses Is very
small, the observed outcrops being
confined to a strip but a few hun
dred feet in extent. A copy Of Mr..
Wherry's report may be obtained by

ago, of thirst and hunger. Those
were not the first victims nor the
last.
Into that sinister country Nc
Vaughaen went in 1879. Ruther-
ford b. Hayes was president that
years. Since then wars have been
fought and states admitted to. the
union; hamlets have grown into
cities; thousands of miles of railroads
have been completed; national dis
asters and national rejoicings taken
place; wireless, monographs, aero
planes, moving pictures have become
common; the facilities for the inter
change of human thought have made
their advances; the popularization Of
art, letters and social betterment has
had it's successes.
But cut off from all this. living
continuously, as it were, since
1879, McVaughean spent t~hirty-tive
years of his life by himself, prospect
ing in the desert. The first good
claim that he opened up was me
hundred and twenty-five miles from
a railroad, the nearest point being
the Prumper ranch in the extreme
part of the desert.
There is no degree of hunger,
thirst or loneliness that this man of
70 has not experienced. He is we'll
acquainted with them all, and with
a good many forms of danger be-
sides. But he was born to hardships.
His childhood was spent on the
frontier, and when little more than
a boy, in 1861, he went into the gov
eminent service as a scout and mes
senger. The government still pays
him 1915 a year. In a pinch he
would be a valuable man, for he
speaks several Indian languages
fiuently, besides Spanish and its Mex
lean variations.
He does not consider the $575,O00
a sort of reward of merit, as in
stories. for his years of industry. He
looks on the money as merely Incl
dental to the romance and the adven-
ture that has made up his life. The
money might have come, and it might
not; 1t does not make a great deal of
difference either way. Now that it is
here he intends to devote most of 1t
to educating some nephews and
nieces and getting them started in
life.
During his years in the desert he
located eleven good claims. These
he recently sold to Schwab & Co., and
that accounts for the $4,000. The
mines are gold. silver and copper
He says that the gold claims PANIED
$126 to the ton; the copper $26 to
the ton. The Schwabs now have
eight hundred men busily at work in
the mines, and McVaughaen believes
they will take out millions of dollars
worth of ore.
