Goodman Finds Rich Phosphates Near Vernal
Report from Vernal describes a large phosphate deposit on the north rim of Uintah Basin about sixteen miles north of Vernal. F V Goodman discovered the beds six months ago with samples showing up to 80 percent phosphates and assay figures of phosphorus 19.93 and phosphoric acid 22.36. The deposit lies atop Brush Creek gorge bed rock and runs across the basin, with 25 to 30 feet of vein thickness. Authorities note the area mostly within Forest Reserve and highlight high potential value for California shipments at $4.65 per ton, plus a planned phosphate mining setup.

Inventors Claim Private Multi Telephone Network
Inventors at work in Ark Hub claim a new device allows many phones on one circuit with private lines. Each party could eavesdrop or block others while acting as a private central, reducing central office workload and potentially delaying phone service. The Hull Telephone Improvement Company, formed with $50 000 capital, plans to market the invention. Rev Mo Hersey will lead services at St Pauls Episcopal on Sunday.
