HOW SHALL DRY
 "PLACERS" BE WORKED?
Weekly Press Letter of the Arizona State Bureau of Mines. Vol. 1 No. 15

One of the first problems which will tax the ingenuity of the State Bureau of Minesl is the solution of method to work the dry placers of Arizona.
 Scattered over Arizona are thous- ands of acres of gold-bearing material which could produce mill ions of dollars if the proper facilities were at hand. Some of these arid regions may yet be reached by pipe lines for carrying water, but there are many others for which some method other than water treatment must be devised. Many of these places have been worked by Mex jeans in very crude way with the "batea" or Mexican dry washing machine, but it requires extremely rich, loose material to make these crude methods worth while.
 The Plomosa district, lying east of the Colorado river between the Plomosa mountains and the Castle Dome range, in Yuma county con- tains large beds of gold bearing gravel, which has been quite thoroughly tested. Very complete investigations have been made on these beds, and samples gave an average of GA cents per cubic yard. Nuggets have been found running to s25. This district covers an area of approximately 75OO acres, and in 1912 produced almost $1O,OOO by banning after rainfall.
 The LePaz district is also in Yuma county, near the Dome rock Bench gravels are re- ported 50 feet deep and average $1. 50 per cubic yard ill coarse gold.
 The Weaver district in the south. ern part of Yavapai county has produced nugget worth $4OO, and has placer ground covering an area of 40 square miles.
 The San Domingo Wash in northern Maricopa county covers an area of 1900 feet by 9 miles, with a reported average of 40 cents per cubic yard. There is a possibli- ty of water storage for this work.
 The Lewiston district has about 300 acres of placer ground, running from 50 to 75 feet in depth, which has yielded in tests from 3 cents to BPS per cubic yard.
 The Old Hat district covers an area of 1000 acres, with an average thickness of 150 feet. It has been very difficult to determine the value of this, owing to the fact that the gold is not equally distributed,
 The Quijotea district in Pima county has been worked for hun- dreds of years by Indians and Mex jeans. The Greaterville district, also in Pima county, has about g square miles of placer gravel, which has ueeq intermittently operated for many years.
 All together many millions of dollars are now tied up in Arizo na placers, which will become valuable by the solution of methods of treat ment. This problem is one of the largest of the states problems, and it's investigation by the state Bureau of Mines will do much towards it's laualonpaont |

SALADS TOO LITTLE USED
Really They Should Be Given Very
Prominent Place in Meals Served
to the Family.

Salads are capable of infinite va
riety, so when fish and cheese fan
vegetables which approach animal
foods in nutrition may be served, and
either the oil in the dressing or the
fat in the cream or melted butter OF
boiled dressing be depended upon
to supply the necessary oil Try a
corn salad. \ pound of this yege
table contains as much protein as is
or half dozen eggs. Cool freshly
boiled corn. also some rice (dried in
the oven until the grains separate),
salt slightly and mix them in equal
quantities; fold in some stiff mayon
naise and serve very cold in lettuce
cups. Beans, peas and lentils, which
are all so rich in protein, are very
desirable for salads in place of meat
Cover two cups of cold baked beans
with French dressing and let stand
u half hour; drain, sprinkle with hall
teaspoonfui of onion juice, mix with
cream dressing, arrange on lettuce
leaves and garnish with parsley and
hard-cooked eggs. Lentils combined
with onions, peppers and parsley, and
served on cress with French dressing,
make a hearty and tasty salad.
A fruit salad has the added ad
vantage of being very healthful for
nearly all fruits hold acids and salts
in solution which are cooling to the
blood, and there are SO many fruits
available that none needs to become
tiresome. Pears, as a salad possibility
once tried, will appear often this way:
Peel large pears, halye them, remove
the cores and drop them into cold wa
ter in which is tablespoonful of vine
gar to keep them white. FIJI the core
cavity with either grated cheese or
cream cheese balls and serve on let
tuce with French dressing. Purple
egg plums may be used instead of
pears. with lemon juice substituted for
vinegar in the dressing The stone
cavity of peaches filed with chopped
nuts and arranged on lettuce with
mayonnaise is very tasty. A pretty
salad can be made from watermelon or
rantaloupe by scooping out with a large
spoon pieces from the ripest parts,
draining, chilling and serving in let
tuce cups with French dressing. When
mayonnaise is used with fruits, leave
out the mustard and pepper. put in a
little sugar and use lemon instead of
vinegar always. In no case should a
boiled acid dressing be used with fruit
salad.

Wash and soak large tablespoon.
ful OF rice, then cover with a pint Of
milk and add pinch of salt and place
in a very moderate oven. Cook slowly
for an hour stirring in the crust that
will form once or twice during that

has been brought to the boiling point
with square of unsweetened choco-
late and a cupful of light brown sugar,
davor with half teaspoonful of va

"OiI" With Kerosene.

When a sewing machine works
heavily, take out the thread and oil
every part of the machine thoroughly
with kerosene. Work briskly for
some minutes, so that the kerosene
may do its work of loosening all the
old oil and CRIME, and then wipe care
fully with soft. old duster.
When the kerosene has been re-
moved, oil the machine again with
lubricating machine oil, and it will
then work perfectly. Be sure and use
the lubricant oil after using the kero-
sene.

How Editors Get RIch.

A great many persons have wondered how editors all get rich so quickly with such small effort. One of them who has grown rich has at last told the secret of it. He outlines it as follows:
 Nursery firm will send up a thirty five cent rosebud for only So worth of advertising.
 "For running a six inch advertise ment for one year we can get a gross of pills.
 "About one dozen films are wanting to give up shares of gold mines for ad- vertising.
 For $40 worth of advertising and S35 cash we can own a bicycle. The wheel sells at just SIP.
 "A fellow out west wants us to run a lot of advertising for him for nothing and if it brings him results he may be- come a customer.
 "For running SIP worth of locals we can get two tickets admitting us to a circus in the city and pay our own fare on the railroad.
 "Gun firm wants us to run $l9 worth of advertising and then send S10 in exchange for shotgun. Such a gun would retail at about $6. "-Brook. lyn Eagle.

TOO MUCH CANAAN.

New Canaan, "the next station to Heaven," has found a remedy for her lights, but still she is not happy. The patriotic editor of the esteemed New Canaan Advertiser voices new griev- ance. He wants all the other Canaans on the Connecticut map rubbed out and named overall except New Canaan for the reason that railroad freight handlers, express messengers, mail agents, etc., who cannot be expected to know all the little hamlets in the world, naturally suppose Canaan the orig inal, oldest and best known Canaan in the, state-is the logical receiving station for goods consigned to any town that has the word "Canaan" blown in the bottle.
 Business Manager Freeman, of the Advertiser, who has just moved back from Massachusetts, lon which we con- gratulate the Advertiser, is righteously indignant, and with good cause. He had h1s kitchen cabinet and rubber plant shipped from Cliftondale, Mass, to New Canaan, September II, and they failed to arrive until IS days later, having spent most of that time around the depot here in Canaan.
 Another instance: Work on the new state road in New Canaan was held up several days awaiting the arrival of certain road making machinery, which was finally located on a side track here in Canaan. "Many other instances might be mentioned, says the editor, who concludes with this heterodox sug- gestion:
 "With apologies to our friends of
 the nest of Canaans up north, with
 which we are frequently cOnfOund-
 ed, we suggest the elimination
 from the map and the remaining
 of all the Canaans in Connecticut
 except New Canaan-the Next
 Station This suggestion may
 not harmonize with the ideas of
 the president of the Bald Headed
 Club who we know is welded to
 his location, and perhaps he will
 dig up better one. ."

Editor Knox, of the Woodbury Re- porter, celebrated his 60th birthday anniversary a few days ago, and re- ports that the day "seemed not unlike the other 21, 900 days that the editor had journeyed along with his contem- poraries," though he appreciatively acknowledged that "his children pre- sented him with beautifully engraved napkin ring, his wife with a mammoth wedding cake, and from friend came a dollar bill through the mail as a re- hinder of the suspicious event. Then there was a birthday card from an old time lady friend" But besides all this the genial Knox has the congratu- lations and best wishes of the whole journalistic craft of the state.
