 M- Elliott mas requested that pub .licity t4 given the following snsses- tioIs
 To facilitate work in connection with the report on the Charleston da:n project. and 10 enable the 55ld issue to De put to the vote or the land owners in me San Pedro Valley coming under the irrigation p-oj@c,, j: is suggested by Engineer Elliott that all land owners ascertain whether their deeds 10 the land they own are correct in their descriptions Of the properties. Errors have been found 10 exist ir regard 10 acreage and descriptions ot land coming un- der the irrigation project. Several de. sc-ipt:ons were found 10 describe land c mile or two from the land j. was iu- tended 10 describe Some of these de sc-iItions would describe land as for instance A man would be living on land at enc place. bar when his deed was examined il called for q piece of land in quite another place. It was apparent from descriptions of these deeds that this was either an uninten- tional mistake in describing or a sten- ographic error Hence it is suggest ed tha; people who own land coming under the irrigation project should have their deeds examined. If deeds are sent to l.. Earl Matteson they will be properly checked and if errors are found 10 exist, the Association will as sist in any way possible 10 have them rectified.
 The attention O: land owners is also directed to the advisability of having their deeds recorded. It has been found that quite number of deeds are still unrecorded."

ASSESSMENT BILL
IS NOW A LAW

The Hayden bill changing the time in which annual assessment work shall be done from the calendar to the fiscal year became law by the sig. nature of President Harding on the 24th of August. The bill forwards the time in which annual work for the year 1921 shall be completed from the 3lst day of December to the 1st day of July at noon. The bill as if became a law reads as follows:
 Sec ?. That section 232i of the Revised Statutes of the United States be amended by adding the following words: Provided, that the period within which the work required to be done annually on all unpatented min eral claims located since May 10. 1872, including such claims in the Territory of Alaska. shall commence at 12 o'clock meridian on the first day of July succeeding the date of location of such claim; Provided further, that on all such valid existing claims the annual period ending December Sl. 1921, shall continue to F o'clock mer- ,.lfa, IpI,- 1900
 It will be noted that the important change brings the time for the relo- cation oi abandoned mining claims to F o'clock noon Of July | instead Of midnight oi the 3Ist of December in each year. The rew jaw is effective at once and mines upon which annual work has been done for the year 1920 will not be subject to relocation un- til F o'clock noon of July I, 1922.
 IL is also well to state that the law extending the time within which as sessmeIt work for 1920 should te done 10 and in,lud!ns July l, 1921, in cluded the whole of said July l. ls21 no location being valid that was made before midnight of that day
