800 MUSTANGS
 ARE CORRALLD BY GENTLEMEN

About 800 mavericks have already been rounded up in the big wild horse work now under way in the Cherry, Sycamore and Bloody Basin districts.
 Around 230 head are corraled on the T. H. Thurston ranch near May CT, and at least that many have been rounded up in the Sycamore district, according to Mir. Thurston, who re- ported the progress of the rodeo to the local forest service office.
 Jeff Davis, state sanitary inspector, left Prescott for Mayer this morning to take charge of the unbranded and unclaimed stock so far gathered in and to supervise their shipment to the southern part of the state.
 Cattlemen in the districts in which the horse work is being carried on are particularly anxious to rid the ranges of the wild horses, which are said to number about 900, caught and uncaught, inasmuch as their habit of fighting cattle away from the salt grounds, water holes and springs is this year an especially big handicap to the cattle growers. The amount of forage consumed by the mavericks at . time of drought is also big loss to the cattle growers.
 The ultimate destination of the un- branded and unclaimed horses to be shipped south by Mir. Davis is said to be a soap factory near Tucson, the animals being worthless for any other purpose on account of their wildness and the fact that they are of deterior- ated breeds.-Prescott Courier.

NEW PLANT, DEVILS BUR,
 DELIGHTS TO PUNCTURE TIRES
Edited by

Natures adaptability in fitting plants to new methods of spreading their seeds is apparently illustrated in a noxious weed which has recently be- come troublesome in California and spread to Arizona, and which is known as the puncture vine. It's activities in Arizona, where it is commonly call ed Devils Bur, were revealed to the United States Department of Agn- culture during nationwide weed survey now in progress.
 This vine produces spiny seeds which attach themselves to automobile and bicycle tires which carry them long distances. It is not only an op. portunist, but an ingrate, because it is causing widespread trouble to motok- ists and cyclist by puncturing their tires. The possibilities for damage from this plant are illustrated by the experience of California man who was reported to have had 70 punctures in one tire, all due to the puncture vine. The weed is considered so ser ious in California that the California state department of agriculture has published a number of special art iclues on the subject. The plant is be- ing spread with rapidity in sections of Arizona where it never was pre- viously known.
 The puncture vine is known scien- tifcally as Tribulus terrestris. It is native of Southern Europe and was probably introduced into America by means of burs contained in the fleece of sheep. The fruit, or bur, splits at maturity into five sections, each equipped with a pair of spines about one-fourth inch long. The sections lie on the ground in such manner that one of the spines always points up- ward ready to enter the first tire that comes along. In one California county it is estimated that half of all the punctures in bicycle tires and large proportion of punctures in automobile tires are caused by this weed. The burs also cause severe damage to wool. The plant has been known as ground bur nut, caltrop, and has re- gently received the apt name of auto mobile weed. In addition to Califor- mia and Arizona, it has been reported from Indiana, Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska, Kansas, Arkansas and Texas. Hope for its eradication in fields is given in the fact that it is an annual and can be controlled by repeated cultiva- tion, thereby preventing the forma- ton of seed. Along roadsides, how ever, the plant cannot ordinarily be controlled by moving on account of the low, spreading habit of growth. Even after being closely cut, burs are apt to form on the ground. Depart ment experts are planning to test the possibilities of exterminating the plant along roadsides by spraying with chemicals, such as crude oil or iron sulphate.

RECORD TIMBER SALE MADE
 BY FOREST SERVICE

The largest timber sale negotiated in a number of years by the Forest Service was made on June 2, when 697 million feet of timber in the Sierra National Forest, California, were a. warded to San Francisco lumber man, with the approvar of the forester. The bid prices per 1000 feet are: Western yellow pine, $3; sugar pine, $4.25; white and red fir, $1.50; in- cense cedar, s1.5O. A price of 50 cents per 1000 feet is also fixed for unmerchantable timber removed at the option of the purchaser. The pur- chaser has a two-year construction period, and 23-year operating per iod fixed in the agreement. This sale will also make possible the removal of about 700 million feet of privately owned timber.
 An initial investment of approxi- mately s3,500,000 is required for de- velopment, especially for the con struction of a standard guage rail road, to open up the area, which has hitherto been inaccessible for logging operations. A provision in the con tract will secure the use of portion of this road in an equitable manner as a common carrier, and it will later be utilized to remove additional tim. Der from the National Forest. Since the timber involved in the sale is ma ture and has been subject to recurring insect infestation, it's sale at this time, together with the general open ing of the area, is considered very de- sirable.

RICH TOP DRESSING
 REVIVES FADED LAWNS

Lawns get tired look late in sum- mer and can be stimulated and made fresh, according to experts of the United States Department of Agri- culture, by light top dressing, conn- posed of ? parts good loamy soil, one of we'll routed manure, finely com minuted, or any good compost in which soil predominates, with 1-2 pounds of sulphate of ammonia or nit rate of soda, for every 1000 square feet.
 This mixture should be applied evenly, and will result in quick stim- ulation and new green growth, A mix ture with good proportion of soil is strongly urged, especially when the chemicals are used, as they will burn the grass when used too literally on the lawn. If the grass is watered af- ter the fertilizer is applied it should be thoroughly and literally done.

"JOY RIDE" AIDS SALE OF
 TRAINLOAD OF CATTLE

Word has reached Bisbee of a new departure in marketing livestock that is meeting with great success and which will probably be adopted per- manently in the future by the men who used it primarily as an experi- ment in disposing of steers. Cattle men near Wilcox, together with sev- eral grazing permittees in the Drag oon district, recently pooled train load of high grade market steers, loading over 1000 head of cattle and starting a tour of the country for the purpose of disposing of the steers at the best market price.
 After loading the train the men in charge ascertained the market condi- tions throughout the country and then started their journey. They stopped at many points along the road that offered good market for their steers, and whenever they unloaded steers they made good profits on the trans actions.
 After disposing of numerous steers along the road, the cattle train finally reached splendid pasturage in South

NEW BREED OF POULTRY
 DEVELOPED BY UNCLE SAM

Lamena is the name given to new breed of poultry that has been devel- oped at the Experimental Farm of the United States Department of Az riculture at Beltsville, Md. It has been named by Secretary Wallace af- ter the originator, Harry M. Lamon, senior poultryman of the Bureau of Animal Industry. It is a white fowl with red ear lobes that lays a white shelled egg. White Plymouth Rock, Silver Gray Dorking, and White Leg horn were the breeds used as founda- tion stock.
 The fowls are larger than Leghorns, with long, deep bodies, well feathered, with comb and wattles of medium size. The new breed is n01 ready for intro duction and neither eggs or fowls can be secured. When a sufficient stock cf birds has been raised, specimens will be sent to State Agricultural colleges and experiment stations to test their adaptability to different sections and conditions.

MT. Stephens said that more cattle usually are shipped out of the state during the first six months of the year, which indicates that the total number of cattle shipped out of the state this year will be smaller than in any year since 1915. Lts 3
 He also said that many of the cattle shipped out of the state during 1920 were dairy cattle that had been sold outside of Arizona, so that the number of range cattle shipped out was even smaller than indicated by the table. i.
