UTILIZATION OF SPANISH POTASH DEPOSITS

Consul General Hurst writes from Barcelona
under date of October 9Th. that up the present
potash has not been extracted in Spain in CONNER
cial quantities 1t has been proved however, that
amenabe to refining, and that the deposits may
become basis of a world trade with Barcelona as
an export center Examination and tests thus far
have indicated only enough potash consumption
in Spain, but they have been limited that it is
impossible to estimate the quantity and grade of
the deposits and the difficulties that may have to
be undertaken in mining for this sale
1t is presumed from the varied data gathered
that the potash beds and rich and
likely to have important bearing on agriculture
and certain highly important manufacturing in
dustrics, both in the peninsula and abroad What
is needed is scientific extensive survey
of the regions in that part of Spain where marked
traces of potassium salts have been found. For 10.
cal consumption it is probably possible to put
certain quantities of potash on the market As an
article for export in regular and unfaing ship
ments, present indications do not point to a de-
finite or even early conclusion.
The tracts of Catalina in which beds of DO
tassitm salts exist arc chiefly in the provinces
of Barcelona and Lerida. particularly in the latter

number of these claims for mining concessions has
been made on lands where there is no conclusive
proof that potash exists in commercial quantities
although it is possible that these lands contain
potash and that the potash producing area may eN
tend considerably beyond the confines mentioned.
Thus far the prospecting has been satisfactory at
and Suria. but a thorough investigation must
be made at Cardona and Callus, nearly midway be-
tween which Suria is situated

Turn On the Light

The statement of Mayor Young at the close Of
The Parish hearing, that he could have asked I'VE

If responsiveIy and ruthfuly answered, would af-
ford as much light the quintette of questions
which the mayor has so artfully concealed We
would ask only who is behind this expensive prose-
cution OF the city manager, who is much inter
ested in the case that he is putting up money for
expensive counsel. what interest has the unknown
angel in the displacement of the manager? All,

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE WILL
ADVERTISE THE DATE AFTER
THE FIRST OF THE YEAR. EV-
ERYBODY EXPECTED.

Secretary West of the chamber OF
commerce stated this morning that
he was going to call the directors OF
the chamber together and advertise
a real big town party some time AFTER
the first of the year.
The idea of town parties Is ne"
one i'm the southwest, but they are
proving to be great successes wherev-
err held. and serve to get people better
acquainted with each other. Recently
at Tulsa over four thousand people at
tended the party at the auditorium and
a real old fashioned dance was IN
dulged in that was far more ENJOY
able than the present day turkey trot.
Secretary West said that the idea I'M
pressed him favorably and as soon as
"A suitable place was available, he
would advocate it strongly. The idea
of having it at the court house was
abandoned as there was no place Tor
the dancers but some building viii be
available before long, and the party
advertised.
