MINING AND OIL
NEWS

Arizona.
Gas has been struck in an oil we'll
being put down twenty miles south
west of Holbrook. This information
came in a telegram to Representative
w. ]. Richards of Navajo county, who
is Mt present in Phoenix, upon whose
property the Hopi OIL Company is
drilling.
Work has again started in the Helen
Dome mine, located In the Pass and
machinery is arriving daily in Bowie
and being hauled out to the property.
A crew or men are at work getting
things shaped up to mine on larger
scale than previously attempted. The
Helen Dome Is n gold-sIlver property
and also carries 2 per cent copper.
Those who have been watching the
progress of the Nacozari Consolidated
Copper Company, whose property lies
adjacent to the Phelps-Dodge mines at
Nacozari, will be interested to learn
that the company's main development
tunnel Is reported to have entered a
large brecciated zone, showing heavy
sulphides of silver-lead and copper
pyrites.
The Yuma district Is in one of the
greatest mining booms which has ever
taken place within the bounds of the
state of Arizona. With the passing of
every day. some persons bring to light
the fact that properties in the Yuma
district are to be developed. Arrange
ments have been made on many claims
to ship ore; tho miners, and the peo-
pie behind the prospectors and the
miners, are girding their loins for a
great battle to wrest valuable min
erals from bosom of Mother Earth,
Congressman Carl Hayden officially
advises that the performance of an
nual title work on mining claims as
provided for in the revised statutes
of the United States, hns been restored
in operation, and for the year 1919
there will be no exemption rights af-
forded owners, as has been observed
during the past year. Accordingly,
the law swings back automatically as
prevailed before the exemption legls-
lation was enacted to relieve owners
of the legal requirements in perform
ing the customary work.
Drifting both ways on the schist-

PROSPECTORS' MINERALOGY
 l. ECTU R E

Mir. George K. Fansett, Mining En- gineer of the Arizona State Bureau of Mines of the University of Arizona, will soon repeat his successful exten- sion lecture, Practical Mineralogy for the Prospector," in all of the larger towns and camps of the state. The purpose of this lecture is to stimulate the search for and aid in the discovery and development of deposits of valua- ble minerals.
 This lecture as given is primarily intended to reach all people, both young and old, who have very little if any, knowledge of mineralogy, chemistry and allied sciences. For that reason the work is handled in the simplest and most direct manner in order that it may accomplish the best results and make it possible for those who attend this lecture to make their own tests for the detection and the determination of minerals.
 Mir. Fansett's technical training and practical experience in mining and prospecting make him especially well qualified for this particular work. He is graduate of Yale university, later taking postgraduate course in min ing at the Columbia School of Mines of New York city, and the University of Washington School of Mines at Se- attle, Wash. In addition to this tech nical training he has had over I3 years practical experience in mining work in Arizona, Central America and South America. Mir. Fansett is a member of the American Institute of Mining Engineers, the Southwestern Society of Engineers, the Yale Engi- neering Association and other engi- neering organizations, and through his examinations and reports on prop critics, he has been directly responsi- ble for the development of several pro- ducers, thus adding to the worlds list of producing mines. His, close associa- tion and contact with miners and pros pectors has enabled him to understand what they especially need in this line, and how to present this subject, which is of the greatest importance and use to them, so that they can fully understand it and be able to do the work themselves.
 Owing to the fact that this lecture Practical Mineralogy for the Pros pector" fills long felt want in this state of mines and mineral possibili- ties, it is hoped that those interested will take advantage of this lecture when Mir. Fansett comes to Flagstaff.

RANGE PROBLEMS.

Dr. $. T. Voorheis, professor of En- tomology at the university, gave an interesting account in one of last weeks assemblies, of the investiga- tions of which his department, the U. $. forest service, and the U. $. bio- logical survey are making in connec- tion with the various animal pests of the range.
 Among the most common of the TO- dent pests of the range are the prairie dogs and jack rabbits. A very sue cessful campaign against prairie dogs has been carried on for some time by the extension service of the universi- ty, in cooperation with the biological survey, and it is anticipated that these animals will eventually be eliminated in Arizona, if the appropriation now being considered by the legislature is passed. Jack rabbits are more diff cult to combat as it is not possible to destroy them by poison on the range without danger to the cattle, but on the cultivated lands and farms they can be controlled. A particularly de- structive range pest, as shown by the work of the past year, is the kanga- roo rat, so called because of its re- semblance in shape to the kangaroo, its hind legs being much longer and larger than it's fore legs. This kan garoo rat is not well known on ac- count of it's nocturnal habits of life. It lives in complex underground bur rows and comes out at night to feed on grass seed and carry back supplies in cheek pouches. Owing to the fact that the food of this animal consists altogether of the seed of grass and other vegetation, its depredations are of a peculiarly destructive nature. It has been found that in one burrow, there is sometimes stored away as much as eight pounds of seed, and when this is multiplied a thousand fold it is easy to understand what havoc they work on grazing ranges.
 Cooperative investigations now go- ing on are designed to prove the exact extent and character of range dam age by series of experimental fenc- ed areas of definite size on the range. These areas, one by excluding all cat tie and rodents, another excluding cat tie but not rodents, and two others, one to enclose, or pen up a pair of jack rabbits, and a smaller one to en- close pair of kangaroo rats, will by comparison with the usual range con ditions outside, solve the problem. War will undoubtedly be declared on kangaroo rats as a result of thesa studies.

YOUR
 HOGS DRESSED

Sell your hogs dressed rather than alive. The ordinary practice of mar keting hogs in Arizona is to sell the live animals to the butchers or coun- try buyers alive A test conducted at the University of Arizona in Decem Der, 1918, comparing the returns from dressing hogs and selling the carcas- ses shows added profit in dressing the animals. ...
 Eight ordinary grade pigs only fairly we'll fattened, weighing from 12S to 217 pounds were offered for sale to a local butcher at 16 cents a pound (1358 pounds) or $217.27. The pigs were dressed (1050 pounds), for which was actually received from the same man 26 cents pound or total of $273.00. The gross returns received from the eight pigs was S55.72 more than could have been secured for them alive, or an average of $6.96 per ani- mal. The labor in dressing at 35 cents an hour was $l.23 per pig. Thus $5.74 net return may be secured by dressing pigs of a similar weight and condition. It is easier to haul load of dressed carcasses to market than load of live pigs. Sell your hogs dressed.
