The cotton sample used in the following fiber study was found in the summer of 1932, in the Canyon Creek ruin, Fort Apache Indian Reservation, in east-central Arizona. During the excavations remnants of cotton fabrics were frequently found in the rubbish, indicating that the occupants of the pueblo evidently made considerable use of the fiber. A small quantity of raw cotton, in the process of being spun into yarn, was found with an adult female buried below the floor of a room.

ABSTRACT Three native trouts occur in the southwestern United States. The Rio Grande cutthroat trout <em>Oncorhynchus clarkii virginalis</em> persists in New Mexico and southern Colorado on the Santa Fe, Carson, and Rio Grande national forests and private lands. The Gila trout <em>O. gilae</em> and the Apache trout <em>O. gilae apache</em> (also known as <em>O. apache</em>) occur in isolated headwater streams of the Gila and Little Colorado rivers on the Gila and Apache- Sitgreaves national forests and Fort Apache Indian Reservation in southwestern New Mexico and east-central Arizona, respectively. For more than two decades, intensive management has been directed at the Apache, Gila, and Rio Grande cutthroat trouts. Despite the efforts, their decades-long listed status remains unchanged for the Gila and Apache trouts, and the Rio Grande native is under consideration for listing. The objectives of this paper are to review the literature and management activities over the past quarter of a century in order to delineate why recovery and conservation have been so difficult for southwestern trout.

The Mountainous belt of east-central Arizona has produced little evidence bearing on the problem of human history prior to the introduction of pottery and agriculture and the development of village life. In terms of the Christian calendar the events since about A.D. 1 are understood with varying degrees of clarity and reliability, but before the beginning of the Christian era the record for this region is still largely a void. The nature of the terrain, composed mainly of mountains with narrow, steeply pitching, and deeply entrenched valleys, has been unfavorable for the formation of the kind of alluvial deposits in which early human remains are often found. But there is no reason to suppose that the ecology of a mountainous region was less attractive to people of a primitive subsistence economy than were the plains or the broad low-lying intermountain valleys.

Abstract Dominant height and site index equations were constructed for Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. glauca) and Engelmann spruce (Picea engelmannii) on the Fort Apache Indian Reservation, located in east-central Arizona. An indirect parameter prediction method was utilized to develop the equations from stem analysis data. The dominant height equation for Douglas-fir is a function of site index, age, habitat type groups, and soil texture groups. The Engelmann spruce dominant height equation is a function of only site index and age. Site index may be calculated directly by inverting the dominant height equations. West. J. Appl. For. 7(2):40-44.
