RECLAMATION NEWS

The Reclamation Office, believing
that water has not always been turn
ed into the government system as
it was needed, this spring they push
ed arrangements and got it, into the
canal on the evening Of May 4. Up
to that time there had been only one
request for water, but it is soaking
up the system and the substrata.
Connections have been made be-
tween Sand Creek and the Idaho
canal, and on Monday the freshet
was turned into the canal to lead
it into the Blackfoot river instead of
letting it spread out in the Wicks
district and damage the farms.

NEW IDEA IN WATCH MAKING
Discovery, 1t Is Announced. Is Capable
Of Revolutionizino the Pres
ont Industry.

Not long ago there was announced
discovery described by the director
Of the international bureau Of weights
and measures as being capable Of revo-
lutionizing the watch making industry.
A successful method of regulation,
remedying the variations In time Of II
watch due to the expansion and con
traction Of Its parts caused by varin-
tions of temperature, is the result Of
the invention of Q. Il. Guillaume.
This so-called secondary error al
ways has been one OF the great OBJ
Stucles in the attainment OF perfection
and precision in the matchmaking in
dustry
The chief feature OF the Guillaume
process Is change in the alloy used
in the compensating parts. Then mini
mum expansion Of nickeled steel was
found to be Increased by the addition
Of II per cent Of chrome as well as a
small quantity OF tungsten, man
ganese or carbon. By mounting ii
spiral OF this steel-nickel-chrome al
10y in the watch, according to Ve
French announcement, the problem Of
compensation has been solved and the
secondary error" removed.-Washing

Did You Ever See an "Autochrome? !? -

To the average person the term Au-
tochrome has no real meaning. The
word auto meaning self and the word
chrome meaning to color are put to-
gether to indicate photograph in
which the colors of nature are made a
part of the picture as the picture is
taken.
The "autochrome" plates are made
only in France and require some of
the most delicate manufacturing pro-
cesses known in modern scientific
work Only the most expert of photo
graphers can afford to do autochrome
work because of the high cost Of the
plates and the difficulty in getting
proper exposure and development.
Good autochrome pictures in size five
inches by seven inches sell at prices
ranging from $15 to $50 each.
On the 18th of March the High
School Athletic association is bringing
to Lamar, Mr. Fred Payne Clatworthy
who will give his lecture on "The Four
Seasons in the Rocky Mountains" il
lustrated with nearly one hundred of
these beautiful "Autochrome" slides,
These pictures will undoubtedly be the
greatest artistic treat to be seen in
Lamar this year. Mr.. Clatworthy is
now in the east lecturing before such
organizations as THE National Geo
graphic Society of Washington, D. c."
"The American Museum of Natural
History of New York City," "The Uni
versity Club of Cleveland, Ohio" and
many other large organizations in the
east. Lamar is indeed fortunate to
have the opportunity to see Mr.. Clat-
worthy's beautiful pictures and it is
much to be hoped that large crowd
will be out to hear him.

To Develop canada.s Clay Deposit.

Numerous varieties of valuable clay
deposits. some OF these being brick,
tile. earthenware and fire clays, have
long been known to exist in Saskatche-

Of these deposits and TO encourage
their development the provincial au-
thorities have recently Included
course OF ceramics in the curriculum
Of the Saskatchewan university. Thus
although there are no pottery ry-manufac-

BUFFALO HERDS HAVE GROWN
Animals in Canadian Government Pre-
serves Must Be Killed to Prevent
Evil Of OVercrowding.

Twenty-Five years ago the Canadian
government purchased small herd
of buffalo and placed # in national
park at Banrf For several years the
herd was regarded merely ms an oh
iect of curiosity. Then game pre-
serve was decided upon, and the herd.
together with other buffalo acquired
from United States rancher, was
turned Into the lnclosure. The pre-
serve is located at Wainwright, Alta,
and extends over 162 square miles OF
sandy prairie which was considered
unsuitable for agriculture. The buff
faIo. 700 in number, thrived from the
start. and last spring the caretakers
counted 6.146 of the animals. Al
though the 1922 crop" cannot be
counted until the bison are herded
into their winter quarters, 1t is esti-
mated that there will be an addition
of at least 1000 calves. Besides this
herd at Wainwright, there are other
buffalo in Canada in sufficient num-
bers to bring the total up to approx
mately 1900 head and the govern
ment is preparing TO kill about 1OcD
OF them every year to prevent the
preserves from becoming Overcrowd-

COST OF EDUCATION
Education in Colorado Cost From $40
to $3.50 in Different Counties
per Pupil Each Year.

The average annual cost of educa-
,ytion per pupil in Colorado public
schools, based upon average daily at
tendance, is $l29.96, according to COM
pilations made by the State Immigra
ton Department for use in the Colo
RADIO Year Book. The average cost
based upon total enrolment in the
schools is $91.16.
These averages are for the school
year ending July l, 1922, and are cal
culated from data contained in the re
cords OF the state superintendent of
public instruction. They are based
upon total expenditures for school pur-
poses for the year and may include
some expenditures for permanent i'm
provements which are not properly
chargable to the cost of education for
the current year. Total expenditures
reported for the year were Sl9,579 ,543.
Costs in Denver are above the av
erage for the state, being $l02.25 and
Sl56.26 respectively. Highest costs,
however, are found in rural districts
where attendance is comparatively
small. In San Juan county, for ex-
ample, the average cost based upon
attendance is S213.63, and in Saguache
county, where many of the children
are transported long distances to
school and where excellent facilities
are provided, the average cost based
upon attendance is S228.44. In Park
county, where average attendance is
very low compared with enrolment,
the average annual cost based upon
attendance is S263.49, which is the
highest for any county. Total school
expenditures reported for the county
however, are only SAL ,662.
The lowest average cost based upon
attendance reported is for Baca coun-
ty, being s41.47. Attendance in this
county is rather large compared with
the school population, which reduces
the average cost. Total expenditures
reported for the county are Sl42,640
Conejos county ranks next to Baca,
with an average annual cost based up
on attendance of S63.2O. The percent
age of attendance here is low in com
parison with the total number of
children of school age, perhaps be-
cause of the very considerable number
of Mexican children in the county. The
percentage of attendance based upon
enrolment, however, is comparatively
high.
Average costs of education per pu-
pill have been advancing rather rapidly
in Colorado for the past few years,
but the increases for the past year
were not so great as for several pre-
vious years.

GAMBLERS BARRED
FROM RING BOUTS
BIZ United Netrs

By United Netos
NEW YORK. Dec. 24.-It was a
meeting Of the New York boxing com
mission and things were dull.
Let's suspend somebody" said one
Of the commissioners.
Good idea" said No. 2 And
let's create some new champions
No" suggested No. 3, I'm tired of
that. Let's do something else. Let's
pass some new rules. We haven't
passed any rules for a long time"
So the boxing commission Of New
York passed a few new rules today.
One prohibits gambling in fight
clubs and bars known gamblers from
the premises.
Another forbids admission to the
boxers dressing room to all persons
except trainers, managers and sec
Onds.
Another requires there be a seat for
every customer.
The fourth insists that nobody be
seated at the ring side on the side
where the judges sit, except the time
keeper, who must be placed at least
six feet from the judges.
