PLAZA LAND PLANTED
WITH SWEET CLOVER
Some Say It Is Alfalfa, But Capitol
Experts Say Other
wise.

Here is chance for naturalists to de-
eide the question Of whether the land
between the Capitol grounds and the
Union station is planted with alfalfa or
sweet clover.
A friend Of The Star telephoned a few
days ago that the people of Washing
ton might be interested in knowing
that four or five squares of that plaza
section are planted In 1ourishing al
falfa, now in full bloom.
IT know alfalfa when I see it, and
think every one might be interested in
knowing that we have a full blown al
falfa farm i'm our midst" said the
friend.
Investigation showed a fine little
farm full Of the sweetest-scented plant
that any one could wish for in the
middle Of a city. within a few feet Of a
railroad station.
However. a question at the Office OF
the superintendent Of the Capitol, who
has charge Of the grounds also, brought
the reply that the alleged alfalfa is
sweet clover.
Are you sure 1t Is not alfalfa?'
Absolutely. We planted those squares
with sweet clover that you can smell
for half mile"
However. there fs q disposition on the
part of the officials Of the Capitol
building to plant ono of the newer
squares with alfalfa to let the public
see what It il like.

Industry

How doth the busy little bee
improve each shining hour! 1t
honey takes from every tree, and
keeps it till it's sour. All. nothing
binders. nothing queers its labors
here below; it does not always
cock its ears, to hear the whistle
blow. Wherever honey is on tap,
YOU see the bumbler climb; for
shorter hours it doesn't scrap, nor
charge for overtime. It's on the
wing the livelong day, from rise to
set of sun, and when at eve it hits
the hay, no chore is left undone.
And when the bumblers are pos
sessed of honey by the pound, bad
boys come up and swat their nest,
and knock it to the ground The
store they gathered day by day
has vanished in a breath. and so
the bees exclaim. Foul play and
sting themselves to death. There
is no sense in making work Cos
pei and creed, in thinking every
hour will spoil that knows no use
full deed. No use competing with
the sun. and making life strain !;
for bees-and boys-must have
some fun if they'd be safe and
sane.

PROSPEROUS MINING YEAR
Geological Survey Review Predicts
Good Season for Alaska

The geological surveys mid-year re-
view for 1915 reports that there is
every reason to believe that the min
ing industry of Alaska has begun a
prosperous year The present high
price Of copper has ENCOURAGED con-
tinuation Of development work on
many copper properties on which
operations were suspended in mid
summer last year. 1t is probable, says
the report. that about dozen copper
mines will be on a productive basis in
1915 compared with six In 1914. A
considerable increase of copper pro-
duction will, therefore. take place. The
gold lode production from the south
eastern Alaska, Prince William Sound
and Willow creek districts also will
be increased this year.
The outlook for an increased output
for placer gold also Is encouraging.
There will be more dredges operated
on Seward peninsula this year than
last. and II also is probable that sew
erai new dredges may be in opera
ton In other placer districts before
the close of the season. In addition to
the dredges there are a number of
other placer mining plants of consid-
cradle size that will be operated this
year for the first time.

TO UTILIZE WATER POWER.
Chamber of Commerce Investigating
Great Falls Project

Roy c. Clafin, Thomas W. Buckley
and John H. Torch have been named a
subcommittee of the Chamber of Com

power of Great Falls for the general
ing of electric power as the result of a
suggestion made by Secretary Red
field of the Department of Commerce
in an address delivered before a recent
meeting of the organization Mr. Red
field believes that IL the falls are har-
messed electric power can be supplied

SHOWS HOW BAKING
POWDER IS PRODUCED
Carefully Constructed Model Of
Plant Shown in Former Build
ing of National Museum.

A carefully constructed model Of a
soda plant near Tully, N. Y, with brooks
of running water, wooded hills and q
well built town Is unique exhibit in
the old building of the National Mu-
scum, and shows in reduced form the
method of producing that common but
essential household article-baking
powder. 1t is fact that ordinary
table salt and baking powder are
closely related, and the museum exhibit
shows how salt is obtained from deep
within the earth without mining, this
product to be later used in obtaining
soda. The model is unique in that It
is not only geographically correct with
elevations and depressions carefully
worked out as they exist in the region
depicted in the model. but has the
manufacturing plant, the. salt wells,
tanks. etc. and roads. houses and
trees, together with brooks and lakes
of real water. The salt wells lying at
a depth of 1 200 feet below the surface
of the hills are shown, with the pipes
which feed the tanks and reservoirs,
below in the town of Solvay. Sections
OF Lake Onondaga and the Erie
canal are also to be seen.
Brought Up in Form Of Brine.
Bearing in mind the fact that salt is
soluble in water, the engineers Of the
concern at Solvay evolved the scheme
of using the abundant supply of pure
water furnished by the numerous lakes
in the region of Tully. N. Y, by forcing
it into the deep lying salt beds and
drawing 1t off in the form of salt water
This was accomplished by sinking two
pipes one within the other. sending the
fresh water from the lakes down the
larger pipe. and sucking up the salt
water through the inner pipe. The salt
water or brine Is stored in concrete
reservoirs. constructed near at hand,
from where it is connected to the plant
at Solvay, twenty-one miles away by
a pipe line, and may be drawn of as
desired.
The exhibition model at the museum
is accompanied by number of photo
graphs, which depict actual scenes in
the region traversed by the model. A
series of raw and finished products in
large jars offers a comprehensive rep
resentation of the steps in the process
illustrated, and shows the different in
gradients employed. Altogether this
exhibition demonstrates a new step in
museum exhibition tending to interest
all ages and those with a non-technical
as well as a technical trend of mind

FIRST AID INSTRUCTION
FOR July 4TH IS GIVEN
District Health Department Ad-
vances Advice to Those
Who Celebrate.

The health department of the Dis
trict of Columbia has prepared a few
simple and easily understood fnstruc-
tions for f1rst-aid treatment of in
juries sustained in Fourth of July ac-
cidents. such as explosions Of cannon
flrecrackers. premature Ignition of
rockets and other forms of fireworks,
and the general run Of accidents likely
to occur during celebrations of the
once noisy but now generally safe and
sane holiday.
wounds where the flesh is shattered
and bruised. as by explosives" the bull
letin says. ARE most susceptible to the
germs of tetanus According to sta
tistics compiled by the Journal of the
American Public Health Association,
not less than $50 cases of tetanus &C.
traceable to injury caused by explosives
that were being usedin the celebration
of the Fourth. 1t is wise. therefore, to
consult a competent physician without
delay in case of injury from explosives,
no matter how slight the injury may
appear, for no mere examination of the
wound will enable one to say whether
tetanus will result. After the disease
Ia manifest 1t is too late, as there is no
cases prove fatal.
Wound Must Be Opened.
The wound must be opened at once
and all foreign matter and injured It's
sue removed; the wound must be thor
oughly cleaned and a disinfectant ap-
piled. This treatment must be followed
promptly by the administration of te-
tanus antitoxin. No amount of clean
ing will justify the omission of this
preca ution. as the antitoxin will not
harm the patient and will prevent the
development of the disease. After the
symptoms have appeared it is useless
to administer the antitoxin, for it will
not cure.
Residents of the District should bear
in mind that fireworks are not the only
dangerous means for enjoying the
Fourth. Those who anticipate spend
ing a quiet day picnicking in the sub
urbs may be taking as grave risks as
those who spend the day setting off
fireworks. The picnicker should not
drink from any we'll or spring, no mat
ter how invitingly clear and cool the
water may appear, unless the quality
Of the water is known to be good, for
it may be polluted with the germs of
typhoid fever. If possible, take your
drinking water with you; a bottle is
cheaper than doctors bill. If it is
impractical BILE to carry drinking water,
remember that boiling renders water
safe from typhoid.
