LEW people, not directly connected with
L the mining industry, realize the import
ance Of the Assayer and Chemist to the dis
coverers, producers and refiners Of valuable
metals.
From the time prospect is first discovered
until has reached the stage Of producing
mine, the Chemist is relied upon for ac-
curate information as to the value Of the ore
developed and for research in determining
the most economical method Of extraction.
Upon careful analyses Of the Chemist de-
pends, not only the fair and just settlement
for metals disposed Of, but also the success
Of the mining and metallurgcal operations
as whole. Each step In the mining and re-
duction Of metal-bearing ores is closely con-
troLedby the Chemist, whoi is able to detect
instantly when recoveries and extrachons
are below normal, thus enabling the oper-
ator to change his methods before serious
loss occurs.
In the present day large scale mining and
milling operations, where very low-grade
ores are mined and treated to recover the

small quantity Of metal contained per ton Of
ore, it's necessary for the Chemist to deter
mine whether the broken ore loaded on the
trains shall be sent to the reduction plant or
to the waste dump. This work must be done
quickly and accurately, SO that no delay in
operation or loss In metals will occur.
After the ore reaches the reduction plant,
the Chemist must supply accurate infoma-
ton as to extractions and losses in the vari-
Gus steps Of milling, smelling and refining
the ores andmetals, SO that the efficiencyof
each unit may be kept atthe highest point.
Development in the laboratory has kept
pace with development in mining and
metallurgy and the Chemisthas worked side
by side with the miner and metallurgist in
solving the difficult problems Of the in
dustry.
All producing mines and reduction plants
MAINTAIN at great expense well equipped
laboratories for control Of operations, and
an efficient laboratory organization is an
important adjunct to the economical pro-
ducton Of high standard ofproduct.

cd unanimous objection to the

bers being present.
Dan P. oJnes, chairman, presid-
Cd and officers chosen to be recon-
mended to the county board OF

luton regarding the Swing-John-
son bill was unanimously adopted.
Whereas: The Swing-J ohnson
bill now pending on the calendar
Of the United States senate in its

atory, and therefore unconstitu-
tional.
Whereas: This bin provides for

entire project for the benefit Of
California and providing for fl
nancing Of the project from the
revenue derived from the sale Of
power from Arizona and Nevada
sources.
Whereas: The Boulder (Black)
Canyon dam is too low as 1t pre-
vents the irrigation Of more than
1,OOO, 900 acres in Arizona and
adds $1O,OOO,00O per annum to

estimates compiled by the Bureau
Of Public Roads of the Depart

59O,948 is to be available to the

WORK APPROVES PLANS FOR
COOLIDGE DAM

PHOENIX, Ariz., May -
Designs for the Coolidge dam at
San Carlos on the Glla river have
Deen approved by Secretary of
tne Interior Hubert Work, accord
ing to a telegraphic dispatch re-
celved here from Washington.
The Secretary's approval practi-
cal1y removes the last obstacle for
actual construction work on the
dam. The approval of President
Coolidge and OF General Lord. di-
rector Of the bureau OF the bud
get, OF items to be included in the
deficiency bill now being drafted
by Congress assures funds being
available within sixty days for
work on the dam.
f, The news of the Secretary's sp-
proval Of plans closely follows the
approval on May / of General
William c. Langfitt of Washing
ton, D. C. and A. J. Wiley Of
Boise, Idaho. Langfitt and Wiley
constitute board chosen by the
government to pass on the design
for the dam.
According to officials of the
United States Indian Service on
the San Carlos project, the null
tlple dome type of dam will most
probably be built. The designs
were drafted by Major C. R. Oh
berg of the service, and are the
result of two years work Two
other types were submitted: a
multiple arch and a gravity Sec
tion type. All three Of Major Oh
berg's designs were formerly ap-
proved by Louis c. Hill of Los
Angeles and Fred Noetzli of San
Francisco, experts on dam con-
struction.
Each Of the three designs call
for dam of height of 220 feet
from stream-bed to spillway crest.
The reservoir behind the dam will
have capacity Of a little less
than that Of the famous Roosevelt
reservoir Of the Salt River Valley
Irrigation project. Irrigation of
about 100000 acres of land in the
Florence-Casa Grande Valley is
contemplated for the outset Of the
reclamation project.

cording to the records of the Of

general of the legion, or 500
more members than were register

OF the 38 posts in the state, the

have increased their 1926 mem
bership over the 1925 figures.
Eight of the posts are new ones

The balance Of the posts are below
their membership Of last year.
The largest increase in member
ship has been recorded by the Nor
gan-McDermott post Of Tucson,
whose increase has been 325 per
cent, the records showing that the
post had 81 members in 1925 and
263 to date for 1925. The Frank

RECORD PRICE FOR
BLUE-.BLOODED CALVES

TUCSON, May The worth
of good blood in livestock was
forcibly demonstrated this week
when Howell Manning, manager Of
Canoa Ranch, received for a herd
of newly weaned calves q record
average price Of $35.O3 . head.
Not only is this the highest
price secured for cattle in this
section even during the peak pri-
ces Of war times, but it is believed
by local cattlemen to establish q
high record that will stand for q
long time in the future.
The calves, from the celebrated
purebred sires Of the Manning
Hereford stock numbered 24O ami.
mails, which ranged from six to IL
months old, and had just been
weaned from their mothers.
The herd was purchased by
Kansas feeders, and the blue
blooded youngsters brought the
high mark price of SITS per
hundredweight. The drive on the
hoof to Amado was made and
the animals weighed prior to ship
ment, tipping the scales at an av-
erage OF 452 pounds to the anil
NAL.
While Howell Manning attri-
butes the abnormal price secured
to the heavy rains that have caus-
ed the pastures Of Cameo 90 Aloam
with e heavy growth Of grasses,
no such price could have been &C.
cured had breeding not influenced
the weight and beef-texture of

in conjunction with the Secretary

Whereas: 1no Dix state OOm-
pact is included in this measure
and Arizona is excluded from any
benefits thereby.
Whereas: The expenditure of a
large sum of money, the appoint
ment of engineers not now en-
ployed by the government to sur
vey and test the Bouledr (Black)
Canyon damsite is proposed. This
site has been fully tested.
Therefore, be it resolved: That
the Democratic Central committee
cf Maricopa county in regular
meeting assembled, urgently re-
quest the representatives in con-
gress and senate of the United
States to oppose the enactment OF
this iniquitous, plundering Swing
Johnson bill.
Resolved: That We recommend
the following amendments thereto:
Substitute Glen Canyon dam
for Boulder (Black) Canyon dam.
2-Provide for a complete sur
vey of all dam-sjtes in the LaRue
plan of development Of the Colo
|rado river and for bed rock drill
I ing where needed.
3-Provide that the first dam
constructed shall be above the
200 feet level.
4-Make the water and power
appurtenant to the lands to be
irrigated.
5-Substitute for Six States
past:-"Grant to the states OF
Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming the
perpetual right to the use Of all
the water that can be economic
ally applied to their Lands within
the basin by gravity.
Resolved: That we are unalter-
ably opposed to the expenditure OF
any further amounts Of money in
surveys or drilling at the Bouid-
er (Black' Canyon dam-site as
that site has been fully surveyed
and tested and more money spent
upon it than on all other sites on
that river. We favor an appro-
priation for the survey and drill
ing Of the sites in the LaRue plan
of development and an actual de-
termination of the costs OF con-
struction of all sites prior to thu
construction of any dam on that
river except a dam for flood con-
troll, a low dam to take the peak
off of flood flow and built at a
cost Of less than $5,O00,OOO; the
Dewey site preferred.
Resolved; That copies of this
resolution shall be forwarded to
Representatives in congress and the
