HOW PERFUMES ARE MADE
Countries That Produce the Most
Many Scents Made by Chem
teal Process.

Scents are not what they seem, was the
moral OF the address given by John G.
Umney before the members OF the Royal
Horticultural society.
Many OF the perfumes known to the
public were compounded preparations, ex-
planned Mr. Umney. Sometimes blending
Of several odors produced the odOr OF one
particular flower. The lily of the valley
perfume for instance, was not made from
the lily of the valley, and the same might
be said of the wall flower. sweet pea and
carnation perfumes.
Specially interesting was the list of per-
fumes made artihcially in the chemical
laboratory. They included musk, vanilla,
made from sawdust; conmarln, or new
mown hay; heliotropin. which is an excel
lent representation of heliotrope; Aubepin,
or hawthorn; lonone, or violet, and the re-

very exactly the scent Of the orange
flower.
Maceration OF the petals was the only
method Of extracting perfume L d by the
ancients, explained Mr.. Umney A veg
etable oil was extracted from the petals,
and this, after Qualification, resulted in a
sweet smelling pomade, but later, in 100
A. D., the distillation process was intro
duced into Europe.
The volatile industry seemed to have de-
veloped from very small beginnings in the
south of France in the sixteenth century.
but the real perfumery industry might be
said to have had its origin in the prepare

century, a preparation made from rose
mary.
The most delicate flowers the tuberose
and the jasmine, stil have their perfume

Lavender and altar OF roses were distilled
Attempts to induce the growth OF roses on
the Riviera, where so many perfumes
were made. had not met with success, and
Kenzanlik was still the home Of the altar

NEW TOWN NAMED FLORENCE.
First New Townsite on the St. Louis
Extension.

The first new townsite to be located
on the new extension Of the st. Louis
railroad will be about twenty miles
north of Watertown and will be named
Florence.
The town Is situated in the very
heart Of the richest part Of the whole
country, and it is predicted by the
townsite agent of the company that it
will be a town Of from 1000 to 1000
people in a very short time. The new
town will probably mean the passing
away Of Dexter, one Of the towns for
many years up there, as it is within
tour miles of the new town.
The new town is at least twenty
miles away from any of the larger and
competing towns.
It is twenty miles from Watertown,
twenty from Bradley, twenty-five from
Henry, t~wenty-four from Waubay and
twenty-eight from Webster. Sites
have already been sold for three lum-
Der yards, six elevators and two banks.
The latter named will be begun at
once and will erect large buildings.
One of the banks has already filed
articles Of incorporation with the fol-
lowing from Watertown as incorpora-
tors: w. D. Morris. president OF the
Citizens National bank; Lorenzo T.
Morris and H. l.. Sheldon, cashier of
the Citizens National.
The railroad graders are now work
ing along the line to Florence and It
is expected that the rails will be laid
that far by July Is. 1t Is estimated
also that over 1000, 900 bushels of
grain will be marketed at that place
this coming fall.
