ASPHALT MINING IN ALsAcE.


KEHL. GERMANY
The asphalt mines at Lobsann, Al
SAGE, Germany, have ben in operation
for the past IS years. but until IL
years ago were operated in primi-
the manner. with but little machin-
cry. Ten years ago a German-Eng-
lish company bought the mines and
leased very extensive tracts Of land
in the vogesen mountains. near the
town Of Sulz u. Wald. This new
company has installed modern ma
chinery and an electric plant
The asphalt is found in great
quantities under the mountains, the
veins varying from 3 to 80 feet
thick, frequently dipping to an angse
Of 20 to 80 degrees in the mine. In
some places one is obliged, in follow
ing the veins, to descend by ladders
lasc the -ich basins Of asphalt The
asphalt is very rich in quality and
dark brown in color, but when ex-
posed 10 the air becomes light gray.
It is shipped in three conditions. The
powder is used in compressed work,
and in pure dry condition is placed
on the street over a concrete bed and
subjected to heavy pressure. This
covering of asphalt is usually from
two and one-half to three inches in
thickness. It is also made into com
pressesd blocks, which are very dur
able and are used in paving side
walks, and for lawn-tennis courts, eel
lar floors, etc. It is also sold in large
blocks, to be afterwards mixed for
paving purposes. About 100 men are
employed, and the average wages
paid the miners is about II cents per
day. Some men have been working
in the mine for 80 years at the same
job

The Importance Of the chemical in
dustry Of Germany is evident by the
statement Of the London Commercial
Intelligence that Germany produces
annually a million tons Of sulphuric
acid and half a million tons Of soda
AS to pharmaceutical products. the
auinine alone exported from the Fa-
therland is valued at about sS,333 900,
and antipyrine and antifebrine at an
equal amount. The caIors. acids. and
chemical manures exported are valued
at about 1856 100000. One may then
assert without fear Of contradiction
said a manufacturer in speaking Of
the results achieved, that to-day Ger
many furnishes ive-sixths Of the dyes
used in the whole world"
The secret Of German success lies
in the fact that they have an army
of scientific men from which they are
now reaping the benefit Of years OF
work and expenditure. At one plant
alone no less than 1870 chemists work
all the year in search Of new prod
ucts. The advantage OF combination
is also stated by a German chemical
manufacturer, who merged his inter
ests with another factory and effected
great savings. Thus the two factories
do not compete abroad. One has
branches at Lyon and Riga. the other
at Creil, Moscow, Augsburg, and
Milan. One of the factories gave up
the production Of acids and salts. Sc
curing them from the other where
they we're produced much cheaper.
A competent authority states that
the 5000 factories and 200, 900 work
men engaged in the chemical industry
Of Germany will this year turn out
products Of which the value viii be
about 1851. .000. 900. and that the value
Of chemical exports will probably es-

This is a warning to American
women. and men. too. for that matter.
against going abroad on the basis OF
a superficial or Hafounded belief that
they can secure a livelihood BY teach

There are cases in which AmeTi-
cans have secured positions in rich
Italian families 10 teach English. but
the cases are so rare as 10 warrant
no one to rely upon them as indica-
tive OF possibilities. much lesss prob
abilities. In the first place, the wages
paid by such people. even the very
rich. are not high. Italian nurses are
TO be found in all the large Italian
cities. The wages paid them in
Milan, for example. are about one dol
lar a day. In Rome the rates run as
high as in the United States. A good
