Successful experiments in the use of wireless telephones in railroading have been made by experts employ ed by the Paris-Orleans Railroad. It is hoped that by means of a special apparatus the engineer of an ex- press train will be able to communi cate with dispatchers without reduc- ing the speed of the train.

INVENTOR or SCALES

The origin Of weighing things dates
back 10 far that the name Of the inven.
tor Ia unknown. When man reached
the stage In civilization where he ceas-
ed 10 depend upon his own efforts for
his livelihood and began trading with
his fellows he was confronted with the
need Of weighing things TO determine
the actual weight Of whatever he trad
ed In. =.
The trade Of the world developed by
leaps and bounds over hundreds OF
years, but we did not have scales until
about 1881, when Thaddeus Fairbanks
of Vermont made and patented the first
one. Before that time weighing OF
heavy loads was done by crude meth
cd. When weighing load Of hay the
wagon with the hay was suspended on
huge steelyard originally fashioned
during the days Of ancient Rome.
Fairbanks first scale was in its es-
sential principles the same as are the
scales Of today, and It's success quickly
spread over the world. Orders poured
In from every direction, for his scales
were not only more convenient than
the old method Of hosting the object
to be weighed on a steelyard, but they
were also more accurate With the
steelyard, the actual weight might be
asceftained within 80 pounds, whereas
today, on scales capable Of weighing
3OD, 900 pounds, the weight can be de-
teimihed within the smallest fraction

WEATHER BUREAU STUDIES
HURRICANES AND
STORMS

West Indian hurricanes and the
storms of the North Pacific Ocean are
disturbances which endanger an in
creasing number of vessels and car
goes each year, and yet, because OF
lack Of observations not all the help
that could be given by the Weather
Bureau Is available.
The construction Of the Panama Ca
nal mas had the effect Of bringing a
larger amount of shipping each year
within the domain Of destructive hurr1-
canes. An important result OF bet
ter understanding Of the hurricane
should be formulating Of Navigation
rules in the dangerous regions OF the
West Indies. The experience Of cap
tains whose vessels encounter hurr1-
canes might offer solution OF some
of the difficult problems Of maneuver-
ing.
As compared with the Atlantic, few
ships ply the Pacific Ocean and It will
be many years before a complete ser
les Of weather observations can be OBJ
tanned for this vast ocean Observa-
tions are much needed from the area
lying between Midway Island, and
Dutch Harbor as an aid in studies now
being made OF the relation between
storm development within this area
and subsequent weather events on the
Pacific coast as we'll as in the interior.

have seamen everywhere appreciate
that their returns are of great piac-
teal value and fully worth the trouble

LUMBER VALUE OF PINE TREES
NOT HURT BY TURPEN-
TIMING

The operation of turpentining pine
trees does not lower the strength OF
the wood, according to information OBJ
tanned by the Forest Service. The
crude turpentine, Of oleosin, is not
obtained from reservoir In the tree,
but u produced by the living cells In
the sap wood at or near the spot where
the cut Ia made on the trunk. No tur-
pentine Ia produced by the heartwood
because all of its cells are dead. The
heartwood may be saturated In places
with pitch, but his does not readily
flow out as does the resin freshly form.
cd In the sapwood. The major part OF
the tree Ia not affected in any way,
and the loss due to death Of trees or
TO reduction or degrading Of lumber
Is very small when the proper method
OF turpentining Is followed; this loss Is
more iihan Offset by the additional rev.
enue obtained through turpentining
The greater part Of the wood that Is
Clipped away would not have become
finished lumber, but would have gone
into slabs and edgings at the sawmiil'
With proper treatment the tnpentine

The new work on the vein, which is now under construction, will be con- tinued to the north end of the claim, where it will reach the south end of the Tennessee, and then through this territory crosscuts, will be carried to search out the other veins paralleling the main vein, and ascertain their ore bearing qualities
 The big veins of the Chloride sec tion have produced millions of dollars and these veins have so far only been superficially prospected. Chloriders have worked some of the veins, never getting below the water level, and yet they have shown the way for ore possibilities that were never dreamed of. The one mine that has been carried to depth of 1400 feet is the Ten nessee and this mine has developed better ore at depth than at any other point. On the 900 the vein opened to 8 feet of solid, lead-zinc ore that

between the Tennessee and the old Altata, as well as on the strike of the Minnesota -Connor veins. Along the vein strike important outcrops of ore have been found that development is rather sure to bring into produc- tivity. The mines are equipped to meet every condition that development may demand, and are ready to go on large scale. The water has been taken from the shaft and drifts and the drifts are being cleared of debris so that as soon as the big crew is put on nothing will stand in the way of speedy development of the ore bodies that have been lined up along the strike of the vein. Good roads lead from the town of Chloride to the min es as we'll as from the end of the Santa Fe railroad, making haulage to and from the mines an unimportant part of the development costs.
 The company was incorporated sev- eral years ago to operate the mine, but like many of the developing prop erties, there was a shutdown during the war period on account of excess sive costs. Now that mining costs have come back to normal the men at

ENGINEERS MEET ON TRANSCONT|NFNTAL
 HIGHWAY PLANS

A meeting of the United States
 Public Roads Bureau is being held in
 San Francisco, at which new transcon-
 tinental roadways are being lined up
 by engineers of the various states in
 conjunction with the federal aid bureau. A wire was received yester- day from State Engineer Maddock asking advice on the possibility of is suing bonds for the construction of road. from Kingman to Boulder Can yon damsite for the purpose of con- meeting up a transcontinental system, or making it a part of the connecting road system of Nevada, California and Arizona.
 The query shows the interest that is being taken in the matter of road connection with this wonderful project and the interest of not only the con- tiguous states but the national gov ernment, and indicates to the people of this county the necessity of getting busy on the job. The building of a road to Boulder Canyon is of major importance and our people, no matter in what locality they may live, are vitally interested in the project. If their interest does not extend to the distribution of water it surely must extend to the development and use of the power that will be created there. To bring it closely home to us we must connect up with good, serviceable road. After the dam is built it can be used to connect the country with the wonderful lake, where hunting, fishing and boating will be within the reach of the people of Arizona, Utah and Nevada. It is the duty of the people of Mohave County to at once build this road and make access to the damsite open to all who wish to make the trip. Now is the time; waiting is dangerous.

are important, as it's radiation into the vein systems of the camp have created many local ore dispositions that have made production possibili- ties over wide area.
 Lying close in to the Tennessee and understood to be an extension of the Tennessee is the Brunswick group, showing vein outcrop that impresses anyone who looks it over with it's inn portance. There are three claims in the group, each giving promise of big things. On the Brunswick has been installed the equipment on which de- velopment is predecated. This equip ment consists of 37-horsepower hoist, $50 foot Ingersoll- Rand com- pressor, 5O-horsepower motor, electric station pumps, blacksmith shop. change rooms, transformer house, and all necessary machinery for well-or- dered camp. The main shaft on the Brunswick is situated about 300 feet south of the Santa Fe railroad, the bunkers of the Rainbow Mountain mining company being at the end of the line. Power is transmitted over the high tension line now in operation from the Kingman power plant to the

MAGMA MINE TO BE
 CLOSED TILL MARCH

PHOENIX (Ariz.) Jan. 13.-Not till March can there be resumption of ore production from the Magma at Superior, where a 40 per cent force is busy in concreting the main shaft and in fireproofing the stations. The company is reported planning for broadgauging it's light, railroad from Magma Junction on the Arizona East en and for installation of reverber- atory furnace for reduction of it's con- centrates an ddirect snelting ores, which heretofore have been shipped to Hayden and other smelting points.
 Before the Arizona Corporation Commission there has been a resump- tion of the attempt of the Mitchell interests of Los Angeles to abandon the twenty-one-mile railroad from Bouse to Swansea. Declaration is made that the line has paid it's way only one year in the thirteen since it was built Taxes for three years are delinquent. Abandonment is fought by the Swansea Lease and other min ing interests in the vicinity.

carried values of 50%o in the two metals. This ore body had a length of 250 feet before it showed a single break in the massive ore, and below this level are ether and still more important bodies of lead-zinc. These ores also carry gold and silver, and while the two metals have to be sep
 arated by milling process they are extremely important as showing to the other mine owners the possibility of deep mining. Farther up the noun tain is the Payroll, one of the big veins of the camp, which has been de-
 veloped to the 600 level and which, we believe, has great productive pos. abilities. And the Minnesota-Connor
 is another of the close-in mines that have been productive. Taken as a whole the territory surrounding the
 Brunswick is the most important in the north end of the Wallapai mining district The veins are large, the values are high, bearing gold, silver, lead and zinc, and there are some of the veins that have values in copper as we'll. Development is the one ne cessity to make many of them produc
 tive, and from our knowledge of the Brunswick we believe that the carry ing out of the work mapped will bring in a big productive property. The men at the head of the company affairs are looking for results and they believe that they have picked a
 winner. MT. Cook, ST., has had a wide experience in the world of en- deavor, extending into the far corners of the earth, and the knowledge gain ed is worth while in the handling of this important property. With him in the development of the mine will be men who have had large experience in mine work and their intelligent direction will soon be noted in rapid ity of operation along the 300 level and in the various crosscuts that are to be driven into the paralleling terri tory. Mr.b Cook is now in the east on business connected with the mine and expects to later get on the ground to see that operations are carried on under his personal supervision.

and this fault will soon be traversed and the vein picked up on the other side, where exceptionally rich silver ore has been found in a 50 foot shaft
 The vein near the south end of the Brunswick shows 27 feet wide of solid vein material, carrying values in gold and silver. This part of the vein will socn be entered by the deeper devel
 opment, with the view to carrying a vein area of wide possibility. At the south end the vein is an enormous mass of mineralized matter, that may at depth assume closer association with the ore bodies found near the sur face, which a crosscut from the 50 foot shaft shows to be of great value.

fairs. He brought to this country several hundred thousand dollars for mining interests and to further the development of much important prop erty in the Cerbat range.
 The near development of the Colo rado river through power generation and the widespread interest in the ramifications of. that magnificent stream, have called the attention of every section of the United States to this nearby spot as the ideal location for mining and reduction plants and later the carrying on of important manufactures. This important in- stallation will sooner or later bring about the transmission of low priced power to all parts of this county and

town of Chloride, this power being steady, clean and much cheaper than oil developed power.
 The main shaft of the Brunswick has reached depth of 300 feet and drifts have been carried off at two levels, a crosscut having been carried into the hanging wall 100 feet east from the shaft, where some mineralized material was encountered. On the H2OO level a drift was driven 200 feet birth and 375 feet south.

 To the north of the Brunswick are the important properties that have been producers for many years, and to the east and south are many other mines that have produced into the mil lions, while throughout the estate are many important veins gridironing the surface. Looking to the north in one of the accompanying photographs the reader will note the developed proper ty of the Tennessee, Schuylkill, Elk hart and others, showing the trend of the enriched territory from north to south. It is this territory that the estate of the Brunswick lies up against, the bunker of the Rainbow be- ing only short distance from the end lines. The road from town skirts this bunker and then on easy grade escends the grade to. the mine. To the west and north is the town of Chloride, lying only about one mile away.

Like F. c. Shrader the writer be- lieves that the Cerbat range of noun tains contain many of the greatest gold and silver veins of the state, every mineralogical condition being favorable for metal deposition. From the region to the south of Cerbat to the Colorado river are many mines that have produced their millions above shallow depths and are still conditioned to continue production. At Chloride the big vein has been the Tennessee, which is considered as hay ing immense possibilities for ore pro duction below the 900 level, having sent to the smelters more than $10,- 100000 worth of ore since its discov- cry.
