U. S. MINING EXPERIMENT i. STATION FOP ARIZONA

{, sf',ctory tro. ress is reported by Iru;ess.r Charles F. Willis, nirec-cr of the State Bureau of Mines, relative to the efforts to secure a United States mining experiment station for Arizona. The support and endorse ment of the various commercial clubs in the state have been received, and floods of letters have been written by influential men within the state to the Hon. Van H. Manning, Director i of the L. S. Bureau of Mines, Hon. Franklin K. Lane, Secretary of the Interior, as we'll as to our senators,
 Smith and Ashurst, and Representa- i tive Hayden, urging them to do all
 in their power to secure the appropri-
 ation for such stations
 The last session of Congress pass
 ed what is known as the Kern-Foster bill, authorizing the establishment of
 ten state stations, three to be estab-
 lished each year. The appropriation fol "NoSe is in the budget of the U |. i s. Bureau cf Mines, and the establish
 ment of such stations depends upon
 the passing of the appropriation bill l While there is no surety that Ari-
 zona will receive one of the first of these stations, the hearty endorse ment of so many prominent men call
 ing attention to Arizona and it's need ! of such a station, cannot fail to have
 attention.
 Srcb station in Arizona would 1 handle the solution of such large problems as would be national in scope, while the State Bureau of Mines would handle the local prob | lens = It would mean much to Ari-
 zona, as it would mean that the re- searches of a competent corps of in- vnstigators will be directed towards the many problems that have hereto Pore been unsolved, and which have kert many mineral deposits from profitable operations. While Arizona is but in it's infancy as mining state, the work of a U. s. Experiment Station would assist it to go forward with greater rapidity than ever be-
 fore.

---Es -.s-.-. --s .- CHILD LABOR DAY POPULAR

Child Labor Day has been observed for the past ten years but January 23, 1916 will be the greatest Child Labor Day of them all, according to a bulle- tin just issued by the National Child Labor Committee. At least 4,500 promises to observe the day have come into the Committees offices all ready from school superintendents, teachers, clergymen, womens clubs and other organizations, and more are pouring in every day.
 Tt is fortunate for us that Child Labor Day falls in January said Owen R. Lovejoy, general secretary Of the National Child Labor Commit tee, because it is going to be a big factor in the passage of the federal child labor bill now before Congress. We are asking all who are observing the nay to emphasize the need for action in behalf of the bill and the result should be an overwhelming de- mand for it's enactment. | hC Dlll III nOI pass Iu6 f1OuS6 this year as easily as it did last year because our opponents were not awake then. The only opposition to the bill came from cotton manufac- tnrers and only three of them ap- peared at the hearings. This advice from Washington indicates that there is to be concerted action on the part Of the cotton mill interests and attempts to block the bill have al. ready been made. This means that we shall need the help of every indi vidual who believes that the bill should be passed because only by convincing the House and the Sen. ate that public opinion is hot with the cotton mill lobby can the enact. ment of the bill be secured We hope that Child Labor Day will bring us many new friends who will not rest until the Keating-Owen federal child labor bill becomes law"

Deep Snow May Cause Loss

Charles Howard, the veteran sheep man, was in Flagstaff last week from Mesa. He had been north on his Ash Fork sheep range directing the move ment of his sheep south in the snow. He says very few sheep were lost by sheepmen though breaking trails through to the south was hard work. The most sheep lost were those that struck the green poisonious weed go- ing into the desert country. The poison weed is about the first green stuff to come up and it is almost in- possible to protect sheep from it when driving them south under such conditions. Considerable damage was done the sheep driving them through the snow that may cause losses later. Feed down south is just coming though nicely and if cold wave does not strike it soon range conditions on the desert will be good this winter, but warm weather is necessary now to bring feed on early enough for the sheep.

WEEKLY KANSAS CITY
 STOCK MARKET REPORT
Beef St.ll Going Higher

Kansas City Stock Yards, January IT, 1916.-Cattle sold stronger last week. beef grades 15 to 20 higher, and stockers and feeders 10 to 25 higher. Receipts were very light after Tues day, storms interfering with railroad service. Receipts today are. 13,000 head, and there is a good market Beef steers are selling steady, with no very toppy steers here, sales around $S.25, being the best, and most of the steers at $750 to $S. Prime steers are getting into class by themselves, and would bring $9 to $9.50. Butcher cattle are gaining strength more rapidly then steers. An order buyer wired eastern killer this morning that he could buy good heavy cows around S6.25, and received instructions to buy, but found it took $6.50 to get them, extra good ones worth ST. Veal calves are selling up to $10.50, and heavy bulls to $6.50. Arrivals from Iowa and Minnesota were small today, zero weather acting against loading there, stock steers selling at $6.50 to SIPS, and butcher cows and heifers S5.50 to $6.75. Stockers and feeders sold quickly today, as few were left in the yards last week, and buyers got out early. Prices on them were 10 to 25 higher. A train of choice Colorado yearlings and twos sold at $6.75 to $7.55. Colorado feeders brought S7.15 to $7.30. Three lots of Colorado yearlings sold at S7.65, from Olathe, Lamar and Delta, respectively. A load of 1902 ID. fed steers from Hugo, brought SS, and Colorado cows sold at $6 to S6.60, heifers SIPS, bulls $5.60. The Panhandle country had practically nothing here today, be- cause of bad weather for handling.
 Hogs Up 10 to l5 Cents
 Hogs sold to to 10 higher, receipts 12,O00 head. Chicago had a heavy rain, and market reported steady, but competition soon put prices up to to 10 cents here, top $7.20, bulk S6.S5 to $7.15. The feeling prevails that heavy liquidation has run it's course, and stronger prices are expected. Outlet for fresh pork and pork product is wide open and packers cannot conceal their desire for hogs, and the market is creeping upward steadily.
 Expect Weak Sheep Market
 Sheep and lambs sold steady, after signs of weakness at the opening, re- ceipts 13,00O head. Pea fed lambs brought S10.60, top ewes s7.0O. Some medium wethers brought S7, and yearlings S8.75. The common price last week for good feeding lambs, 54 to 60 lbs, was s9.15, 10 doubles sell ing at that price. Dealers expect a temporary break in prices, especially if Northern Colorado loads freely, al- though that is the only region capable of furnishing enough of a supply to create an impression.

BRIGHT OUTLOOK FOR
 NEXT YEARS WOOL CROP

The following statement has been issued to wool growers by Salter Bros. & Go. of Boston:
 About year ago, there was an embargo on all British Colonial wool. No wool from any of her Colonies be- ing allowed to come to the United States, and prices of our domestic clip took sudden jump in conse- quence. This was only temporary however, for when restrictions were lifted in April last, cheap Austra- Hans, New Zealands, and South Afri- can wools arrived in great quantities, and undersold the domestic, and so called Territory wools. Meanwhile the foreign article has been used to such an extent both here and abroad, as to run prices way out of sight. Consumption has overtaken produc- tion and prices are moving up in all quarters of the globe. We are stating actual conditions, so our shippers will not make the mistake of selling to the dealers representatives at any price they will offer. You will be wise to your own interests if you place your self in a position to profit by the ex- ceptional conditions developing. The termination of the war will not alter the statistical position of wool in the least, for demand is more likely to increase if anything.
