These inventions started an economi-

In the early days OF the Bethlehem
Iron works the newly discovered pro-
cess of making steel by blowing air
through melted cast iron reached
America, and outside of the few per-
sons engaged in the experimental
plant at Troy, n. Y, there was none
more interested in the study of the
process than Mr.. Fritz. His expert
ments were conducted to most sue

Mr.. Fritz played an important part

magnetic attraction of the ore sup

this tendency is not to be continued

day the east is again to become a

Preparations for the housing and

visitors attracted to Sacramento in
September for the Irrigation Con-
gress and Interstate Exposition, is go

will be in readiness on the date, fixed.
Already 10000 rooms have bees reg

them for accommodations.
A very thorough system has been
adopted to meet the contingency of
housing visitors. Care will be exer-
cised to see tehat the latter are pleas

C. r. Elliott and w. T. Knapp
came In Tuesday of last week with
l1-horse power gasoline traction en-
gine and new 2Sx4O Red River spec
ial separator which constitutes fine
threshing outfit that they will operate
this year. The engine burns 20 GAL

does away with the services of three
men, two teams and a wagon which
the steam engine would require.
Elliott & Knapp will operate their
machine with a crew Of 10 men and
nut the farmers grain in his wagon
at the stack. The farmer will need

his grain after It is sacked. To dc
this same work a steam thresher
would require a crew of 13. The new
outfit cost it's owners nearly $4,000

Though the matter has not yet

were in the city yesterday and re-
ported that one of the worst slides
yet contended with is facing the steel

tablished a considerable distance into

capped hasty laying of steel. Al

quence the money for the third story
would have TO be provided by the
association through popular subscrip-
tion or some other method.
To raise the necessary amount at

association, and seemingly there is
now Willingness to forego the plan,
In the opinion OF Judge Lowell,

ton is given to the accuracy with
which Mr.. Fritz has forecasted other
Industrial movements. Twenty years
ago he expressed the belief that the
Bessemer steelmaking process in
America was gradually to decline,
and the basic open hearth process
would finally become supreme. The
latter was then an insignificant fac
tor in steel production, but the ten
dency of the present is unmistakably
as he predicted. ...I.Ir

More Alcohol For Power.

We may be drinking less alcohol
than Of yore, but we are using more
Increasing attention has lately beer
given the possibilities of obtalning
power from alcohol by means of the
internal combustion engine. From
many points of view the advantages
OF alcohol over petroleum spirit
which hitherto has been in chief de
mand. are clear and pronounced. Oh
course, foremost amons these is Il.
comparative freedom from combust
ible vapors at ordinary tempera
lures and its cleanliness. Moreover.
it does not to the same extent as pc
troleum attack and impoverish rub
Der and metal vessels. Its relatively
high price is probably one of the
main obstacles to its wider use, but
it has often been show that in point
of price it ought to be able to com
pete on favorable terms with petre
cum spirit
Alcohol can be made chiefly frc
residual molasses and cane crushil
products am Shree gallons of refuse
molasses will yield gallon of alec
hol. Some time ago there was a dis
cussion of a projected manufacture
of alcohol from sawdust. There are
also many vegetable and plant pro
auctions, now of little or no value
which yield sugar or starch and that
could, no doubt, be utilized for max
ing alcohol.
In looking to agriculture for future
sources of power it is to be remem
bered that the soil would constantly
be in position to provide fresh
stores of raw material, the oxygen
hydrogen. ana carbon of the alcohol
being mainly derived from the atmo-
sphere, while the ashes and mineral
products would return to fertilize the
ground.
