CAR SEATS ARE IMPROVED

Two interesting new ideas in the
seating arrangement of an automo
bile have been brought out by one
of the leading American maaufactur.
ers for 1915, as shown by pictures
appearing in the January Popular
Mechanics Magazine. In the four
passenger car the rear seats are sep
arated and can be moved forward
and backward on sliding tracks and
also turned slightly sidewise, this
arrangement making mt possible for
passengers to group themselves So
ciably and with more comfort than
in the ordinary type OF rear seat.
In the six passenger car the extra
seats are so constructed that they
fold into spaces at the rear of the
front seats and are covered by leath
er curtains when not in use. In
both types the drivers seat D. sep
arated from the front passenger seats
by a passageway, so that a passenger
may change from the front to a rear
one at will.

POTASH DEPOSITS FOUND
IN CALIFORNIA INSURE FUTURE
SUPPLY OF FERTILIZER

In many respects the most vitality
important result of the outbreak OF
hostilities in Europe, so far as the
United States Is concerned, was the
shutting off of the supply OF potash
from the great German kali mines.
Potash is one of the essential fertil-
izing ingredients, without which mil
lions of acres of land now under Gull
tivation would be almost worthless,
that has not been commercially pro
duced in the United States. 1t Is
also extensively used in the manufac-
ture of glass and soap, in making gun
powder, and, as potassium cyanide,
in photography. For many years the
entire world has been depending up
on Germany for its potash.
For four years the United States
Geological Survey as we'll as many
privately capitalized groups and in
dividuals, has been searching for
American sources of potash supply.
Attention has been often called to
the giant KEEPS of the Pacific coast.
the potash content Of which can be
readily extracted, and at least one
commercial organization has been
formed to exploit this source of sup
ply. Only such natural deposits as
are found in the Stassfurt mine, in
Germany, however, would be ade-
quate to fill the great and growing
demand. And such deposits have at
last been found in the United States.
The efforts OF the geological sur
vey were rewarded soon after the
war began by the discovery OF a de-
post OF potash estimated at 10000,
900 tons, at Searles Lake In Death
Valley, California. According to an
announcement by Franklin X. Lane,
secretary of the interior, the mining
of this potash is about to be begun
at the rate OF 100 tons day, or 81.
4iO tons a year. This rate OF prCduc-
ton is expected to be increased rap
idly. The imports from Germany for
several years have been at the rate
of 100000 tons annually.
This newly discovered Searles Lake
deposit consists OF q smooth, plain
of crusted salts, underlaid by a bed
of salt and brine to a uniform depth
of about rs feet and extending over
an area of at least 20 square miles.
The potash Is contained In the brine
which saturates the entire deposit in
the form OF potash chloride, being
about four per cent by weight OF tho
brine. Other valuable chemicals are
also found in the deposit. According
to the experts OF the geological sur
Vey and OF the Bureau OF Soils OF
the Department OF Agriculture. the
Searles Lake potash Is OF a very high
commercial standard. Being near
the Pacific coast 1t can be shipped to
the Atlantic seaboard and Gulf ports
by way OF the Panama Canal Al a
low cost for transportation.
In order to enable farmers TO OBJ
tain the ferthizing element OF potash
until the new American deposits have
been developed to a point where the
full demand can be supplied, the
Department OF Agriculture has issued
