The Arizona bureau of mines an
nounces that it now has in stock

of Arizona upon which it has been

operation with the United States
geological survey. The gathering
of field data for the preparation of
this map was completed nearly two
years ago, and it has taken most
of the time that has since elapsed

which measures about three feet,
eight inches by four feet, ten
inches. 1t is one the same scale as
the topographic and base maps of
Arizona, already issued by this bu-
reau, or about eight miles to the
inch, and is printed in twelve coll
ors and black. By the use of con-
ventional symbols it has been pos
sible to differentiate between thir-
ty-three different geological forma-
tons or types of rocks. The map
also shows the location of many of
the more important topographic
features and towns, together with
all railways and land surveys.
Because of the relatively small
scale used in drafting the map, it
has not been possible to show the
smaller geological features, but it
is believed that the map is more
accurate and detailed than any that

of Arizona.
That a great demand exists for
the map is shown by the testi-
mony of the many engineers and
mining men who have visited the
bureau for the purpose of studying
the proof, and by the number of
advance orders already received.
1t is a comparatively easy matter
for any geologist, after studying
the map, to decide which parts of
Arizona are most favorable for the
accumulation of petroleum, and
where it is least likely to be found.
1t also points the way to a search
for coal and many metallic and
metallic minerals. In the fu-
ture no one will wish to undertake
a mining or a geological examina-
ton in Arizona without first equip
ping himself with a copy of the
map. The bureau now has in press
a voluminous and beautifully illus
trated book by DR.. N. H. barton
entitled ga Resume of the Geology
of Arizona" which is intended to
accompany the map, and which con-
tains detailed descriptions of the
various geological formations, with
many sections and other valuable
geological data.
A small key map at the bottom of
the sheet shows the sources of the
principal data used in compiling
the map. A study of this key map
will show that when the Arizona
bureau of mines undertook the
preparation of a geological map Of
the state, reliable data concerning
less than one-eighth of it was avail
able. For very large areas, includ-
ing large parts of entire counties,
no geological data had been pub

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.

MANILA, February 3-That Para
rubber trees will flourish in the
southern provinces of the Island of
Luzon, within the typhoon belt. is the
conclusion reached by A. w. Prautch,
agent of the Department of Agricul-
ture, who has just returned from an
extensive inspection trip through the
provinces of Albay and Camarines Sur
After traversing the same region
in these provinces where IL years
ago some 10000 Para rubber seeds,
brought from Singapore, were plant
ed, Mr.. Prautch declared in his re-
port to the department that he found
hundreds of rubber trees that have
grown to maturity.
I'm most cases the seeds were
given to caretakers of distant hemp
plantations, and where this was done
the trees grew. However as the rub
Der tree does not produce in less
than four years, interest had died
before the end of that time. The
trees matured, the seeds dropped,
terminated and produced young
trees, but today the tropical jungle
surrounds them.
Il counted more than 500 large rub
Der trees of 20 inches or more in cir
cumference and found one tree which
measured 80 inches in circumference
1 counted 108 small rubber trees un-
der one large tree. These sprouted
from the seeds which fell last August
and September. 1 found many OF
these self-planted trees as thick as
