Make Your Own Fuel.

What do you do with your old
newspapers? Throw them away
most likely.
IL is mistake You can easily
convert them into a useful and salts
factory fuel that, for many purposes
will take the place of wood or coal.
rhe idea comes from Switzerland,
where of late there has been great
shortage of fuel. Not only is it worth
adopting by ourselves, but Uncle
Sam wishes ii known that he special
ly requests and urges us to take it
up.
Newspapers, of course, are made of
wood. They are woodpulp dried and
ready prepared, as it were for easy
burning. If properly utilized they
make a most excellent fuel.
The way to use them for the pur-
pose is to roll them into compact
balls. dip the latter into tub OF
water until saturated, and then dry
them. If preferred, they may be
formed into the sharpe of small logs
treating them in the same way.
1t will be found that the died balls
or logs, burn beautifully, yielding an
intense heat and lasting remarkably
long. They will enable to house
holder to economic wood and coal
and, incidentally he should be mind
full of the fact that. in very literal
sense, fuel is ammunition-stuff to
beat the Hun and win the war.

ing a colony in some portion of
the country where they can en-
gage in the production Of cotton,
corn and other familiar crops. A
careful study is being made of
the proposition.
A museum of natural history

of Aguascalientes with appropri-
ate ceremonies and festivities.
It is under the management of
a special representative of the
Department of Fine Arts and it
is believed will become a notable

ArizOna's Copper and Corn.

PHOENIX, March 8.-From
Miami the State Council has re-
ceived a good ringing express
sion of Americanism. The en-
plOyes committee in charge of
the Inspiration War Gardens
has issued proclamation ask
ing that every man, woman and
child in the district appreciate
the necessity of turning over to
the nation the last possible
pound of copper from the mines
and at the same time sustain
themselves as far as possible
from the yield of the soil at
their doors, for the war, if it is
won, will be won by the pro-
ducer from the soil. The COM
mittee prints a letter from Mrs.
E. D. Chandler concerning her
experience with one of the In
spiration garden plats last year.
Her grocery and meat bills, usu-
ally very high for a family of
five, were cut in half, at less
than $35 month. At the same
time, the housewife writes that
the family enjoyed better food
and a better selection of vegeta-
Ibles was on the table. Even yet
the garden is doing it's bit, be-
cause there were ''put up" dur
ing the fall string beans, toma-
toes and dill pickles, while pump
kins and squashes were stored.

LUMBER JACKS
Wanted for Airplane Work.
Forest Regiments to Be :
Recruited.

ALBUQUERQUE, N. M,
March 8.-The lumber jack regi-
ment, technically known as the
goth Engineers (Forest) ) is now
completely recruited according
to advices received by the dis
trict forester from the War De
partment. Consequently all
classes of recruiting work for
this regiment have been discon-
tinued.
Recruiting for the two forest
regiments, the 10th and Goth En-
gineers, has been carried on
since the first of June, 1917, by
various officials of the Forest
Service in the Southwestern
district. From Arizona and
New Mexico 210 recruits have
been secured, and most of these
men are now at work in the for
ests of France. In the work of
selecting and forwarding these
recruits to the training camp at
Washington, D. c., the lumber
men of the Southwest have been
in close cooperation with the
Forest Service. In commenting
on the woodsmen who make up
these regiments, the War De-
partment states that they are of
as high a type as those secured
by any other branch of the mill
tary service.
Although no more lumber
mems units are needed for SER
vice overseas, the, Signal Corps
needs about 5000 men in its
spruce production work for aer-
oplane stock. The men in this
line of work are under regular
enlistment, and receive both the
ordinary military pay and an ad-
lditional amount from the opera
tors sufficient to make their to-
tai compensation equivalent to
the standard wages paid COM
1aercially for this kind of work.
All applicants should address
their inquiries to Recruiting

Concentration of American War
Work.

PHOENIX, March SIT has
become evident that solicitation
for private endeavor in war
work is ching extended over too
large a field. Just as the Allies
have found, to win, there must
| be fullest concentration and CO.
ordination of effort, so there
must be a gathering together in
America of the hundreds Of or
Examinations that now, with the
best Of intentions, are trying to
help the soldier and the govern
ment.
On this line, the Arizona State
Council of Defense has made in
|quiry, and has found a number
|of patriotic associations engaged
in war work whose solicitation
of funds can be fully endorsed.

A General Resume of Interest

Neighboring Republic.

Riggs Bldg, Washington, D. CO.
Experiments made in the Ba-
jio and in other wheat growing
sections of the north with a new
variety of grain, known as
mountain wheat" and having
its origin in Spain, have shown
that no less than three crops
thereof can be harvested in a
single year. The first crop is
harvested in March, the second
in August and the third at the
close of the year. While the
quality may not be as high as
that of some of the better classes
of grain, the superabundant
yield more than compensates
therefor.
Official reports state that the
production of copper in Lower
California has in the last few
years reached an average of H.
900 tons annually. A large share
of it is produced at Santa Ros-
ALA, a port on the eastern shore
of the peninsula, where there is
a population of between 10000
and 11,000, all engaged in cop
per mining for a single concern.
The settlement is provided with
all modern improvements, in
cluding electric lights, schools,
hospital, etc.
Under the direction of Secre-
tary Pani of the Department of
Industry and Commerce, it is
proposed to develop certain ex-
tensive deposits of coal on the
Rio Grande in the state of Nu-
evo Leon, the town of Columbia
being the center thereof. A
branch railway will be construct
ed from the main line of the Ma
tional system and as the quality
of the coal is high, it is expected
there will be an active demand
therefor and an important in
dustry be thus created.
The demand for sulphur ow-
ing to the war has been so great
[y stimulated that the govern
ment is investigating the vari-
GUS sources of supply with a
view to their development. The
states of San Luis Potosi, Goa
hula, Durango, Chiapas and
Guerrero, as well as the south
ern district of Lower California,
possess deposits of this material
which it is believed will repay
development.
There are nearly ITO jitneys
IN service in Mexico City and
connecting with various subur-
Dan points. Many are of large
size and carry from IL to 20 pas
sengers each. A tax of 5 per
cent of the total receipts is COL
lected by the federal govern
ment from the proprietors Of
these vehicles.
