son why the road should be built
Five new houses were going up in the

necessity for the highway DIR

the present roadways every week, and
it Is long distance to go around by
the hills. He was In favor of the
road. David l.. Rhoades was of the
opinion that the proposed highway will
be a convenience. Rev. C. S. Bull
lock was in favor Of the road, as he
has to go a long distance round when
he takes his Sunday school children
out camping.
A good deal Of opposition was mani
tested Mrs Hill said she is oppos-
ed and would fight the plan. She
has a farm Of IA acres and does not
wish to have it cut in two. Mr.. Hill

a private and public highway. They
did not want their farm cut up. Sc

Potash Found In Nevada

Down in the extreme southeastern corner of Nevada a company
of capitists from New York are busily experimenting and boring
with the object of uncovering a deposit of potash that will render
this country Independent of Germany and Austria. These latter
countries practically control the potash deposits of the world for
they can be shipped at a fraction of what it would cost other coun-
tries to produce.
Should Nevada come to the front with one good mine it will
stimulate researches that may bring similar deposits to the attention
sing in CLARK County, not far from Las Vegas, on a tract of land
that abuts on the CLARK railroad, which means cheap transportation.
The men who are backing the proposition realize that unless they
strike a steam shovel proposition they cannot hope to compete with
the cheap carriage of the foreign countries, and are going ahead
with systematic development
The most common use of potash is a $ a fertilizer to restore old
farm lands that have been robbed of their most nutritive qualities
by the reckless and improvident methods that have obtained until
recently. One of the best buyers of potash is the growers of citrus
fruits in Southern California, who find it necessary to keep con-
stantly returning to the soil some of the elements that add to their
revenue.
The United States Geological Survey issued a pamphlet ex-
pressing belief that large deposits would eventually be found in the
arid country which is so rich in other industrial minerals. This
bureau of the Interior Department has been hampered by con-
stantly diminishing appropriations which curtail the usefulness of
the division, and the work of prospecting for potash would have re-
ceived far greater stimulus than it has.
If Congress provides the funds, a thorough exploration will be
made. Nevada is rich in saline lands-GoldfeldT Tribune.

Most Wicked City in The World

George Woodruff, an American banker who recently went to
China to investigate the railroads there in connection with a new
loan, spent two weeks in Irkutsk last October, says the New York
World. As he had letters to the mayor, he had an excellent OPP
portunity to see life in that Paris of the wilderness. MI. Woodruff
is a globe trotter of renown. He is familiar with Paris, London,
BUDAPEST, Vienna, New York and other capitals, but he declares
that for genuine ~wickedness that they are outclassed by Irkutsk,
Siberia
"Irkutsk is not only the wickedest, but it is the fastest city in
the world, said Mr. Woodruff soon after his return to New York
"There is more night life in that little town of 10000 people than
in all Paris or New York. In one of the gambling houses there 1
saw s much as 100000 staked on the turn of a card a dozen
times in an evening.
"In the cafes I saw gay parties drinking bottle after bottle of
wine at $40 per bottle. In all my travels have never seen so many
beautiful and we'll dressed women-and women of all nationaities.
"The opera there is almost as brilliant as the opera in Paris
Due)s, suicides, murders are of weekly occurrence, but a formal re-
cepion at St. Petersburg could not boast of any more culture than is
to be found at a smart entertainment in one of the fashionable
homes in this Siberian city. If any one imagines New York is
swift, a visit to Irkutsk will open his eyes. The quintessence of
vice is to be found there"
Irkutsk is the capital of eastern Siberia. 1t has wide streets
lined with fine buildings
Irkutsk has among its citizens more milionaires than any
city of its size in the world, and they have to spend their money
in the city for the reason that they are not allowed to leave the
province. Most of them, especially the rich ones, are convicts or
the descendants of convicts who have amassed fortunes in gold
mining, The Balkan mountains, near Irkutsk, are filled with rich
veins of gold and it is no exaggeration to say that thousands of
become rich beyond the dreams of avarice. The flood of gold has
naturally attracted all the Injuries of the world, and, as usual, the
Injuries have brought vices.
There is nothing secret about any of the vices. Every type of
beauty is to be found-beauiful gesha girls in native costume
vieing with Viennese and Partisan women in the latest creations
All the gambling houses are wide open, the more important con-
Quoted under police protection. The cafes never close and it is
between the hours of midnight and four in the morning that they re
at their liveliest. Every one drinks; most of the Russian women
smoke cigars. leaving their Partisan sisters to enjoy the cigarette.

Saving Tanks During a Freeze

The Nebraska Farm Journal says that during the Winter sea-
son of the year much difficulty is often experienced by farmers who
have to water their stock from open tanks. where heaters are not
used, since it is almost impossible to prevent them from freezing
full Of ice and bullying the bottom. If this bottom happens to be
of wood it ruins the tank for service, and if steel. it never resumes
the original shape. A very simple method to prevent this damage
is to place in the tank a rail or post Of sufficient length to allow
one end to rest on the bottom and the other on the top edge of the
tank. 1t must also be heavy enough to insure that the lower end
will stay on the bottom. We all know that when water is formed
into ice it expands. As the water in the tank usually freezes from
the top first it leaves the bottom to freeze last and as the thick ice
above is stronger than the bottom of the tank the expansion is out
ward, consequently the tank bursts. By placing the post in the
tank it makes a weak place in the ice from the top to the bottom
and when the bulge comes the force goes upward and no damage is
done. This method will also protect rain barrels, tubs and pals
BY using . piece of wood Of proportonate size and length.
