POTASH DEPOSITS
FOUND IN MARSHES
ON PACIFIC COAST
Discovery May Yield $4O,-
100000 Annually, Say
Experts.

Potash sources of a productive value
of e4oooo.0Oo annually have been discov-
cred on the Pacific coast of the United
states by Department of Agriculture
experts
This potash source Is the giant kelp
groves or sea weed growths that are
abundant along at least a fourth Of the
entire length of the Pacific coast line Of
the United States.
This potash will make the United
States Independent Of the German
sources Of supply that has caused Presi-
dent Taft and the statesmen of the
country considerable worry in the last
year or SO. In years past all the potash
used in the United States. the great
bulk of which goes in commercial fer
tilizers. was imported from Germany.
Germany, in the past year, knowing
that there was apparently no available
source Of potash in the United States,
and realizing the tremendous diminu-
ton Of the home resources, showed q
disposition to limit the exports to the
United States in many ways, one OF
the most potent of which was increased
cost and increased duties.
Deposits Found.
When the strain in the trade attracted
national attention to the situation,
Government experts were set to work to
find potash in the United States. They
examined basins and sinks for deposits
of potash salts without result The Az
riculture men, who are most concerned
from the fertilizer standpoint, however,
found that the giant kelps. dried. con-
tanned from % to 30 per cent Of their
weight in potash. which could be ex-
tracted. .,

are a source of wealth In themselves:
These by-products, 1t Is figured. Will
more than pay. the expense OF extrac-
ton, thus making the potash free. ~
| tract, by selective absorption, the potash
salts from the sea water and on drying
these salts are very largely exuded on
groves are FIVE miles long and two miles
| wide, and the growth in these groves Is
exceedingly dense. The plants grow In
strong tideways or where they are eS :
posed to the full force of the open sea.
In Three-Mile Limit.
All the groves are within the three
mile limit, and should be easily har-
vested. The heaviest groves are south
of Point Sur, but large ones extend as
far north as Seattle.
II properly harvested and protected
these groves will yield an annual har.
vest indefinitely. On a conservative
basis, the Agriculture experts estimate
that upwards of a million tons Of po-
| tassum chloride should be obtained an
nually. No estimates of the value of
! the by-products can be given as yet, but
the Japanese have shown great fngenu-
| ity in their use.
Part of the waste kelps are used oy
| them as cattle food. Some portions are
| converted into food that 10 p staple

pie, and 1t was for this food that tAey

With the completion of the interior
work in the new Woodward office build

and H streets northwest, by January J.,
seven real estate firms or corporations
will have taken offices in the building.
Six of them already have moved into
the new quarters.
According to the F. H. Smith Com
pany, agents of the building, about 20
per cent of the office space in the
building has already been occupied or

Woodward building, have moved their
offices from the Walker building to the
new structure. and the builders, r. T.

REAL ESTATE MEN
OPPOSE PROVISION
IN JOHNSON BILL
They Object to Having True
Considerations Made
Public.

An objection is made by many real
estate brokers to the form of the John
son bill providing for true considerations
In real estate, transfers In that such
considerations are to be made public at
the me Of recording transfer 8. The pub
licity is the Objectionable feature.
Brokers generay agreelly agree, as
was pointed out In detail in The Times
several weeks ago, that the work OF the
Assessors office would be greatly as
sisted IL that official were Informed Of
the actual figures at which every piece
Of property IL transferred. They would
not object, In many instances, to Ming
with the Assessor the real consider alton
In any transfer, II the information were
for him alone, but they believe thai IL
these values became public at once, 1t
would have a deterrent effect upon trad
ing.
1t Is argued, OF course, that in a few
years the values made known alone to
the Assessor would become public prop
erty through readjustment of assess
ments made on the basis of the new in
formation, but the purposes of the specu-
lative and other traders would be served
by keeping considerations secret at least
for the time being.

Oldest HuntSWOman
Follows the Hounds

LONDON, December 2c.-The fox-hunt-
ing season. which has just opened, is
made notable by the temperance with
the Atherstone and Meynell packs of
the Hon. Mrs. Colville. aged cnghty-
four, the oldest person in Great Britain
man or woman-to follow the houncs.
Mrs. Colvile, who is the mother. CT
the late Gen. Sir Henry Colrile, mas
been hunting sixty-two years 1t was
thought that last season must be her
last. However, when the hunters gath
cred for the fret run of the present sea-
son, the veteran huntswoman was pres
ent on her favorite mare, and was IN
at the death" She took every fence
and ditch, and finished strong. Tho
weather was wet, cold, and stormy, and
Mrs. Colvile was the only woman OF
the dozen or more who usually follow
these packs, who dared brave the ele-
ments.

Examination
Marks to Be DELAYED

Those who recently took examinations
for positions as teachers In the high
and manual training schools will not
know the result Of their efforts until the
second week in January.
In December and April the regularly
scheduled examinations for positions as
teachers are held, and It is understood
the list of entrants for positions was
lighter this year than before. Vacan-
cies in the higher classes. where the
pay at the start Is $1,000 year, are
few and far between. and the low STAR
ing salary Of $500 in class for manual
training teachers is driving many ap-
plicants away. according to the super
