The undersigned Is again pleased to endorse your annual 'Poppy Day' sale; the proceeds to be used in the worthy welfare work of your organization among the distressed ex-service men and their families. "Your committee Is privileged to use tWis endorsement In your publicity." Saturday th memorial poppy will be sold in every city and town in the United States where there is an American Legion Auxiliary unit, xor the purpose of raising funds to take care of the welfare work among the ex-service families. The Tucson unit carries an especially heavy load of rehabilitation and child welfare work due to the large number of veterans coming here in an effort to rebuild their health.

Seven thousand poppies made by disabled non-com pensated veterans in the hospital at Prescott and the work-room in Phoenix, have been received by the local unit for the sale. Since every penny of the pro ceeds of the poppy sale is used for welfare work among the needy veterans' families, the sale meets with the requirement of the rules laid down by the chamber of commerce for benefit tag days held in Tucson. Tuesday evening, through the courtesy of radio station KGAR a program was broadcast in the interests of the poppy sale. Mrs. Arthur Brinkmeyer, radio chairman for the unit, presented Billie Monyer, Ivan Kawkins and Harris Knight in appropriate musical selections.

Mrs. Brinkmeyer gave a short talk on "Why We Should Wear a Poppy," stating in part: "The disabled veterans who make the poppies derive double benefit from the work. First, it gives them employment, their only chance to help support themselves and families. With strength and health gone, they cannot compete for work against the able-bodied, but they can make poppies. Even in their hospital beds they can do this work, earning money for each tw', iv Rpennrt thp work is of real value in aiding their re covery, occupying hands and minds, breaking the tedium of long idleness, and restoring spirits crushed by hopelessness."

Humphrey, now of the soil conservation service, but formerly of the Southwestern Forest and Range Experiment station at the University of Arizona, appears in the April number of An altitudinal zonation comparable with that of most plants and animals has been observed with respect to rattlesnakes. These observations were made near Tucson, Arizona, principally in the Santa Rita, Santa Catalina, Tucson, and Tortolita mountains. These notes include about 40 records of desert diamondbacks (crotalus atrox Baird and Girard), 6 tiger rattlers (C.

ti-gris Kemiicott), 7 members of the species C. scutulatus Cope, and 9 blacktail rattlers (C. molossus Baird and Girard). Members of three of these species C. atrox, C.

molossus, arid C. scu-tulatus-Tseem to occupy rather definite zones in a given locality, whereas those of C. tigrls were observed to have a wider distribution. On the outwash slope northwest of the Santa Rita mountains, the following altitudinal distribution was noted: Desert diamondbacks were found commonly at an altitude varying from 2,800 feet in the Santa Cruz valley to an upper limit of 3,400 feet on the better grassed areas and to as high as 4,000 feet on brushy areas where grass was scanty. A winter den of this species, hich has been occupied for at least the last four winters, is located at an altitude of 3,700 feet.

Members of the species C. scutulatus were found most commonly on the better grassed areas at elevations ranging from 2,800 to 4.500 feet. The blacktail rattlers were found mostly in canyons at an altitude varying from about 4,200 to 4,800 feet where oaks and other trees furnished a fair amount of shade. The tiger rattlers occurred in areas occupied by all the other species considered, and almost invariably in rocky districts having rough topographic relief. Observations made in the Santa Catalina, Tucson, and Tortolita mountains, although not so complete for all the species, seem to support those made on the Santa Ritas.

Although members of all four I species may occur outside the zones of their maximum abundance, these occasional exceptions are to be expected, and they do not in any way contradict the general zonation noted.
