starving and all the rest of it, and re-

become so monotonous that they decided
something had to be done about it.

WATER X r s + V0IR s
NEAR ELECTRA AND
CHILDRESS.

The construction Of a dam
which will impound water
enough from Beaver Creek to
supply the town of Electra,
the Waggoner refinery and
Waggoner ranch, is being
made under the supervision
of r. l.. Moore, manager of
the Waggoner estate. The
dam will be 200 feet thick at
the base and 1900 feet long
and will stretch thirty-five
feet high. IL is to be con-
structed Of concrete, steel
and dirt. The lake is ex-
pected to be 1000 TO 5000
feet wide, thirty feet deep
and three miles long. Short
age of water in the Electra
field has seriously hampered
operations from time TO time,
but the new lake will contain
water free from alkali. which
will be ideal for boiler pur-
poses.
Childress also is TO build a
large municipal reservoir,
near that city, to impound
water for domestic and com
mercial use. This municipal
reservoir is reported to be the
largest of its kind west of
Fort Worth.

KNEADS DOUGH.

Recently there appeared in the per-

kneaded bread with her gloves on"
An editor of country newspaper in
an adjoining county copied the notice
and remarked that he hardly thought
the item worthy of mention, the editor
of this paper, meaning himself, needed
bread with his shoes on; he needed
bread with his coat on, and he even need
ed bread with his shirt on. But il some
of his delinquents didn't pay up soon,

SOURCES OF

in Coleman county. Doubtless
sand of a quality suitable for
glass-making occurs at a
number of localities.
In some parts Of Texas
gravel is notably abundant.
This is true in particular Of
many counties at and near
the inner margin of the Gulf
Coastal Plains, where the
gravel has been brought
down by streams from the
higher lands. Other areas in
the state, however, are lack
ing in gravel, notably some
of the counties in Southeast
Texas.
Gravel is Of great value in
road-making and as a constit-
uent in concrete. The value
of sand and gravel produced
in Texas in 1918, of which
record was obtained. is given
by the United States Geolog-
ical Survey as S5l9,4i6.
Material for Mortar and Con.
crete.
The materials for mortar
and concrete include sand.
gravel and hard rock of all
kinds, the latter being used
after crushing. The sands
most frequently used for
mortar are siliceous, al
though calcareous sands
serve the same purpose.
Gravel suitable for concrete
material is notably abundant
over the greater part of
Texas, the rivers flowing
from the higher lands hav-
ing accumulated inexhausti-
bic gravel beds. The hard
rocks, chiefly limestone suit
able for use in concrete after
crushing, are very widely dis
tributed throughout the
state. In addition to lime
stone, other hard rocks, such
as the GRANTEES, may be used
for this purpose. Flint rock
is also used to some extent.
Flint is chemically an OK
ide Of silica, with more or less
accompanying impurities. II
is a variety Of the mineral
quartz. occurring massive
and non-crystallized or more
accurately, very imperfectly
(cryptocrystal-
line). The term ebert is oft
en- used INTERCHANGEABLE with
flint. Properly ebert is an
impure flint or flinty rock.
Flint and ebert are lacking
in cleavage. They break, as
do the other varieties of
quartz. with conchoidal ffac-
ture. A flint rock when
crushed breaks into sharp
oornered pieces of varying
size.
In one of our Cretaceous
formations, namely, the Ed
wards limestone. flint occurs
in great abundance, and
gravel and conglomerate de-
posits accumulated from this
formation are found to con-
tain a high percentage of
flint rock. The flint in this
formation occurs in irregular
masses or is distributed
through the limestone in
more or less definite layers.
The flint was presumably
not present in the limestone
as originally formed, but has
been subsequently accumu-
lated. representing the alter
alton from limestone to flint.
Water in its round of circu-
lation through surface and
deeper formations, takes sill
lea as well as other sub
stances into solution. In the
course of its circulation
through the limestone the sill
lea in solution in the water
replaces the calcium carbon
ate Of the limestone. The
direct evidence that the flint
masses are formed by the re-
placement process is TO be
had from the examination
Of a piece of flint. In some
of these flints il will be seen
that the shells which were
