MEDIUM DEMANDED TO AID PR0SPECTORS IN
 REACHING BUYERS
Good Properties Could Be Sold if Some Way Could be Devised of Making Their Merits Known.

While it is undoubtedly true that ev- cry mining community should have publicity 10 keep the public informed
 the mining possibilities of
 trict. and the extent and results of mining operations there is another side to the question, says bulletin of the Arizona State Bureau of Mines. There should be organized by the min- ing companies themselves a publicity bureau to look after the general inter ests. Wherever this work has been done. il has accomplished great re- suits. Such an organization would be of especial benefit to the man who finds the mine, the prOspector The prospector's peculiar properties and talents. and nose for metals, keep him in the hills all of the time al his work. cutting him off from he mine buying public. If a searcher for min prospector claims as his headquarters the chances of his knowing of such a visit or of the buyers quest are very slim. while perhaps he has just the property wanted. Again. as a rule he is not much of scribe, or business man. and for this reason is handicap ped We list our real estate-why not list our mines?
 Again we have the man who lives in town and owns a prospect which ne is unable to work: his only hope to gain benefit is 10 sell. This man. as a rule. has no money to spend for ad- vertiSing or other means f bringing his property to the attention of pur- chasing engineers. An organization is necessary for him.
 Another condition that affects every class of mining property owners. and which should be eliminated. is the pet ty jealousy that often exists between property owners. This results in much switching and has. in many cases, driv en prospective buyers from the dis trict. IL is only too true that mining property owners will often knock ev1 cry other property for the purpose of selling his own The engineer then decides that he does not want to in vest in a district that has only ''one property that is worth while" and that a prospect.
 Proper organization under proper management would put more proper ties in the district in touch with pos sible buyers: the members of q prop erly administered organization would have 100 chances 10 sell where they now have one.

PROFIT IN TUNGSTEN DEPENDS LARGELY
 ON LENGTH OF WAR
Ore Finds Its Best Market As Demands Continue for Use
 in Making High Speed Pro-
 ducts.

TUCSON. April 1.- At the ut break of the European war the Ameri- can tungsten market was very dull and prices very low, about s6 to s6.50 per unit. The ores mined in Burma, Aus tralia and other countries came into competition with the American ores. and the result was that there were many undeveloped and unworked pro perties.
 Tho most common use for tungsten is for high speed steels, and the de mand increases or decreases with the steel market. It is also used 10 a slight extent for incandescent electric flaments. electric contast wire. and for dental work When the orders for shrapnel shell and other war muni- tions came, the demand for high speed |steels rapidly increased. The embar- go placed by Great Britain on lungs ten ores cut of Burma and Australian supplies. Following this the price rose |rapidly, until S6O and more per unit has been paid for ores containing 50 percent and over of tungstic trioxide. The small quantity of ore that has come from Japan. Peru and Bolivia. have not been large enough to disturb the market.
 As with antimOny. the users of tungsten have been securing the coun- try for these ores. and trying 10 pur- chase tungsten mines, and although the price for ores is largely matter of individual bargaining the prospec- tor has fared well
 The situation is not at all natural and is largely dependent upon the dur ation of the war. Although it is like ly that the steel business will remain active. it IS not at all likely that it will remain in it's present state of prosperity. Then the demand for tungsten will be lessened. and with this will come the inability on the part of the individual operator 10 sell. as practically all of the users of tungsten will have acquired working mines of their own in order 10 supply their in dividual needs.
 Those interested in the tungsten sit uation will find bulletin No. II. entitled Tungsten" by A. c. Rubel of consid- erable interest This may be obtained by addressing Charles F. Willis. Direc- tor, Arizona State Bureau of Mines. Tucson Arizona.

PROSPECTORS BUSY
 IN ARIZONA QUEST
 FOR RICH TUNGSTEN
High Prices Offered for Ore Causes Vigilant Search for Valuable Mineral in Every Quarter of State.

The exceedingly high prices and the sensational rise in the value of lungs ten ores have caused prospectors all over the state to search for this valT- able material. which is bringing up 10 s60 per unit and ready sale. Hun dreds of samples are being sent to the state Bureau of Mines for deter mination. the majority of which. how ever. are ores of iton. The held test for tungsten is comparatively simple. Boil a portion of finely powdered ore with a mixture Of four parts hydro chloric are one part nitric acid for about two hours in a porcelain dish with a simmering flame. If the ore contains tungsten. yellow spots or the tungsten trioXide appear on the adges. If a little tin or pure zinc be added and boiling continued a blue color is obtained. which fades to brown. The ores may be easily distinguished from magnetic. with which they are often confused by touching some of the powdered mineral with a magnet. fore reduction.
 The above and many other interest ing features of tungsten ore are eX- plained in some detail in bulletin recently issued by the State Bureau of Mines. Bulletin No. II, Mineral Technology. Series No. ,. entitled. Tungsten, by A. C. Rubel, has created much interest. and may be obtained by writing Charles F. Willis. Director. Arizona State Bureau of Mines, Tue son. Arizona.

NOT READY FOR PEACE

Notwithstanding the well under
stood possibility of a quickly estab-
llshed peace at any moment, the
world at large appears to have very
little hope of peace now as a result of
the overtures made last week by the
Central Powers. While the time was
opportune for the Teutons, following
their Rumanian victories, and change
Of Austrian rulers, 1t is not a psyche
logical moment for the Allies. The
fighting of nations is much like the
contests of individuals in all endeav-
ors of life. They prefer to ease up
or quit entirely when they are win
ners. The Allies have not won vic
tories of sufficient Importance to sat
isfy them as repayment for the i'm
mense sacrifices they have made.
1t looks now as If the war must
continue until one or both sides are
more nearly exhausted. At the pres
ent time the Teutons claim the great
est victories in territory occupied,
but the Allies claim they can and will
overpower them II given time
enough.
And the question of exhaustion, of
wearing out, Of using up all avail
able war materials, is the one great
deciding factor OF this greatest of all
wars. SO long as the countries can
fluid the necessary munitions and
equipment to fight with the struggle
will continue. 1t is doubtful IL either
side can overcome the other by dir
ect assault, because at this time they
are nearly equal in equipment and
fighting ability. Peace is not in sight
because the nations are not sufici-
emily exhausted.

CHRISTMAS

Merry Christmas and its good cheer

1t is one of the bright spots in a rath-
err sordid existence,

devoted to children, which they enjoy

strain of life for the older ones. The
morning greeting is a bit more
CHEEKY, the dignified man and woman
find an excuse to unbend, and a hu-
man brotherhood takes possession Of
all civilized people.
1t Is also a time for remembering
someone with whom we are more
than just acquaintance. Relatives
join together at the family reunion,
exchange gifts, and generally convey
the impression Of interest in each
others welfare.

THE boycott" is again common in
public prints. This time, however,
it is meeting with more favor than
when in use before. perhaps there
are two reasons. Now, it is the ladies

or any n food article they consider
too high. But instead of the old fool
ish sentiment Of putting some one out
of business in a spirit of resentment

WHERE THE WEST BEGINS

WHERE THE WEST BEGINS
Out where the handclasp's a little
stronger,
Out where the smile dwells a little
longer,
Out where the sun Is a little brighter,
Where the SHOWS that fall are a trife
whittier,
Where the bonds of home are a wee
bit tighter,
That's where the West begins.
Out where the skies are a trifie bluer,
Out where friendships a little truer,
Out where a fresher breeze is blow
ing,
Where there's laughter in each
streamlet flowing,
Where there's more of reaping and
less of sowing
That's where the West begins.
Out where the world Is in the making,
Where fewer hearts in despair are
aching,
Where there is more Of singing and
less of signing,
Where there's more of giving and less
of buying.
That's where the West begins.
