Arizona,

Mining men are now looking to Mo-
have county for zinc properties, and
1t is probable that many new mines
will be brought in within the next
six months.
The price Of copper has stimulated
development work at the Mesa gold
camp. Mine and prospect owners are
busy taking out ore and opening up
new ground.
The Arizona Copper Company Is
gradually increasing it's production as
the demand for copper increases, hav-
ing produced about 300 tons more the
past month than in any month since
the slump came.
Among the important acts of legis-
lation passed by the Arizona Legisla-
ture at this session is the establish
ment Of State Bureau of Mines. The
present Bureau of Mines, although not
a state organization. has been con-
nected with the University of Arizona
and the enlargement of its scope
through increased appropriations, will
allow it to fulfill the demands upon It,

Submerged Timber.

The strength of hemlock stick a
foot square that had been in water for
almost forty years was recently test
ed in the 00,000-pound testing ma
chine at Rensselaer, Polytechnic insti-
tute at Troy, in New York. The tim
ber, which was 16 feet 9 inches long,
had formed part of one of the piers of
the Congress street bridge at Troy.
When the pier broke down after the
flood in the spring of 1913, the timber
was turned over to one of the mate
rial-testing laboratories of the insti.
tute. 1t was kept in the open air
for three months. and then placed in
a dry room for a little more than nine
months. When placed i'll the testing
machine, the column failed under a
load of $4,000 pounds: that is. the
long-submerged wood showed an ulti-
mate strength of 2670 pounds to the
square inch. In the opinion of Prof
T. X. Lawson. who conducted the test.
the remarkable strength of this piece
of hemlock seems to show that be-
ing immersed in water for long time
does not decrease the column strength
of timber that is subsequently permit
ted TO dry out.-Youth's Companion
