CURIOUS STONE
 FROM FINLAND

One of the most curious stones in the world is found in Finland, where it occurs in many places. It is a natural barometer, and actually fore tells probable changes in the weather. It is called semakuir and turns black shortly before an approaching storm, while in fine weather it is mottled with spots of white. For a long time this curious phenominon was a mys- tery, but an analysis of the stone shows it to be a fossil mixed with clay and containing portion of rock salt and hitter. This fact being shown the explanation was easy. The salt, absorbing the moisture, turned black when the conditions were favorable for rain, while the dryness of the at- mosphere brought out the salt from the interior of the stone in white spots on the surface.

STATE HIGHWAYS
 THRU RESERVATIONS
(Continued From Page 1)

The proposed road into the reserva- tion at Fort Mohave will connect with the main highway below Oat- man and will not only open up that locality to easy egress to the railroad, but will give the Indians market for their crops raised in the valley, where thousands of acres have been set apart for their development. The matter has been submitted to the sup erintendents of all Indian reservations by Charles H.. Burke, commissioner, and it is probable that it will bear fruit. The proposed road to Fort Mohave is of great importance, not only to the Indians and the school management, but to the people doing business with the school.
