NORWAY Is MARKETING
IODINE FOR WORLD

CHRISTIANIA, Norway, Aug. g.
The extraction and marketing of 10
dine, which was almost entirely in
the hands of English firms before
the war, iias been taken up in Nor
way. For many years the people
along the Norwegian coast have
made a business of gathering sea-
weeds, burning them and exporting
the ashes to England where the 10
din was extracted. The English
firms had such complete control or
the production that it vas Impossible
for N~orwegians to comDete success
fully. but the war increased prices
to such an extent that some Norwe-
gian promoters started two iodine
factories, with the seaweed produc-
ers as stockholders. In less thah
p wear one of these companies has
earned a surplus of 20 per cent O.
tie capital.
The gatherers of the seaweed Fave
pledged themselves against fuFther
expectation to England and they are
sending the raw material to the Nor
wegian factories.

ENTERS LIONS CAGE
TO SECURE RECRUITS

FISCHBUARD, England, Aug. a..
Sergeant Fuller, who recently won
the Victoria Cross in landers and
has since been assisting in the re-
cruiting campaign in England, won
two recruits here by entering a
liens den.
Fuller was speaking at an open
air meeting in a vacant lot adjoin-
ing a small menagerie, when two
young men in the outskirts of the
audience jestingly remarked to him
We'll join if you are brave enough
to enter that lions cage unarmed."
"Ill just take you at your word"
returned Fuller without a moments
hesitation. Lions have no terror
for anyone who has been in the
trenches in Flanders"
He strobe over to the menagerie,
obtained the permission of the pro-
prietor and entered the cage, where
there were two lions. Amid ire
mendOus excitement in the crowd, he
calmly stroked the lions for a mo-
ment or two and then walked out of
the cage and resumed his place on
the recruiting platform.

AN ECONOMIC LEAGUE
FOR ENTENTE ALLIES

ROME, Aug. 5.-The formation Of
an economic league among the n
tente allies, more or less after the
pattern of the German customs n
ion, is urged by the Nuova Antologia,
the leading Italian review.
THE object to be attained" says
the paper, sis an international econ
omic mobilization of the allied states
and of such neutral states as may be
induced to throw their lot with the
allies. The league would embrace
questions of finance and public cred
it, of customs duties and foreign
exchange, of international trade and
Of land and sea communications.
Though formed during and for the
war, it would need to outlast the war
war so as to secure economic and
commercial advantages for its mem
bers, and to penalize it's enemies and
those neutral states which had held
aloof from it.
st would be, in short, an econo-
mic blockade against opponents and
in favor of friends and allies. it
would make speculation in neutrality
exceedingly dangerous for those who
might continue to indulge in it and
would transform the speculation In
neutrality into speculation in inter-
vention, military or moral, on the
side of the allies.
England, France, Russia, Italy,
Japan, Belgium and Serbia could
constitute a formidable commercial
phalanx in the world, and were
states today neutral certain of in
curing it's resentment, they would
think twice before sacrificing their
prospects for the sake of transient
gains"

EXPLOITS OF CORPORAL

PARIS, Aug. 1.-The Journal Oh
fetal reports the exploit of Corlor-
al Emile Grangeorget of the first
company of the African battalion. A
shell burst in close proximity and
threw him several yards. When he
arose it was in a silence that as
tOnished him because he saw shells
exploding all around him. He tried
to call to one of his comrades but
was unable to speak. The shock
had rendered him deaf and lumb.
He had an unfinished mission OF re
porting upon the position his
section had just occupied. Being un-
able to speak he tore a leaf from MS
note book, made a diagram o. the
position and passed it back to the
captain of the company.

BERLIN, Aug Fighting for the

cording to a ruling by the highest
authorities who have been deliberat-
ing on countless appeals for an opin-
ion on this question.

church he does so free of charge. SO

attends church, or such as having
been married by a minister. The

New strikes and discoveries in the
Alpine and Humboldt ranges are
keeping the ~prospectors and miners
on the go, seeking the excitement of
opportunity.
In the Alpine section is the Muir
ray Scott discovery. This show OF
wealth is about midway between Fal-
lon and Austin and about eight miles
from Eastgate. Mining men who
have seen it assert that it is richer
and as strong as the great NenZel
outcrop was on Crown Point hill and
from which the Rochester Mines has
its source. The Scott-Davis strike is
of larger significance than any n
made in that section since Wonder.
The new strike is in Cold Springs
ave twelve miles east from the
big Wonder mine, n of the early
locations of Murray Scott. Prospect
tors and miners are rushing to the
new discovery since it became known
that Murray Scott has made a new
find.
The vein exposed is II feet wide
and is said to sample across SIG gold,
$44 silver. Portions of the vein are
enriched to an extent that samples
taken from this better portion show
silver and gold contents up to $3.50
per ton. By cobbing the ore closely a
shipping product averaging $145 per
ton IS obtained.
Another strike of great importance
is on the Potter lease on the Non
pareil claims, owned by w. b. Bor-
land of Lovelock, and situated on Lin
coin hill in Rochester. The NOnpar-
ellis adjoin the Eastern Stars on one
end and the Blowback claim of the
Lincoln Hill Mining company, from
which much high grade of the free
gold variety has been taken. The
new find is in a massive body of ore,
proven for 80 feet along its course
and over four feet in thickness. Samp-
ling is said to show an average OF
SITS per ton but some of the richer
stuff goes $500 ounces silver anC
$34S per ton gold.

yon, was made by Jack Bishop six
weeks ago. This section has been
worked since the early COS. Much
rich placer ground was worked in
the Rockhill canyon in these diggings
for many years, but never was the
source of this gravel gold determined
until Bishop. the founder of Seven
Troughs, applied himself.
The find is in the upper end of
the canyon. The values are found in
a reddish = stained decomposed
quartz. 1t is very rich, for in a
weeks prospecting Bishop PANIED an
ounce of gold. The ounce of gold
was taken from the surface while
tracing and prospecting for it's
source
Since Bishop has gone deeper on
his find he has had as high as 81

the workings. Picture rock is

ore.

a rich streak of ore in which silver
predominates. His sampling of the
cross fracture shows 4.4O lounces
gold, worth SIS, and 572.6 ounces
silver, worth $2S6.23 a total value
per ton of S374.23. From this cross
fracture Bishop and partner have
sacked in eight days sixty sacks of
ore of the above assay value.
The base of this mountain pans
gold all along when a siX-inch cap
ping is removed, according to
Bishop. He pronounces this discov-
evry one of the best made in years
in Nevada.
A few miles beyond this, at the
head of Spaulding canyon, is anoth-
err. source of picture rock and a
wealth not heard of. This is a vital
ly rich portion tributary to Winne-
mucca. 1t is said that during the
past three weeks Holden and Stage
mar took from the crushing plane
tale or gouge $40 ounces of gold,
with an abundance of ore in sight
for future reduction.
Much work is being done at pres
ent, and from Sunshine to beyond

making good and producing the
goods which counts and is bound tc
attract the larger mine makers. =

OUTPUT OF LIME
FOR YEAR 1914

The lime made in the United States
in 1914, as reported by G. F. Tough
lin of the United States geological
survey, amounted to 3,3SO,928 short
tons, valued at $13,247,676.
The total number of plants report
ing operations in 1914 was 954, Is
compared with 1923 in 1913, 1,017
in 1912 and 1,139 in 1911. The
number operating in 1914 was, with
the exception of that in 1908, the
smallest since record of them was
first made in 1906. The decrease
was evidently in part temporary and
was due to the unfavorable condi-
tions of the year, but in part marked
a continuance of the tendency of
the industr ytoward Capitalization.
In contrast to the decrease in num-
Der of plants, the number of kilns in
operation increased from 2,203 in
1912 to 1888 in 1913 and to 1874
in 1914.
Forty-two states, including Hawaii
and Porto Rico, reported a produc-
ton of lime. The five leading states,
named in order of production, were
Pennsylvania. Ohio, Virginia, Wis
consin and West Virginia. Virgin
las large production during the last
two years has been due to a great
quantity of lime burned and used by
alkali manufacturers, whose figures
were not obtained prior to 1913.
Lime used for building represents
over one-third of the total output
probably over one-half if this product
were segregated from the quantity
sold to dealers. The output of build
ing lime in 1914 decreased both in
quantity and in value in comparison
to that in 1913. Lime for chemical
works, paper mills, sugar factories
and tanneries also decreased both in
quantity and value, but lime for fer
tilizer made a substantial gain both
in quantity and value. This increase
is especially noteworthy in view of
the fact hat agricultural lime is now
sold in competition with pulverized
limestone.
The most marked feature Of the
lime industry since 1906 has been
the rapid growth of the production of
hydrated lime, which in 1913 had
increased owe 800 per cent in both
quantity and value. The output in
1914 vas 515,121 tons, valued at
$~2,239,916. During the year 1885,
1876 tons of hydrated lime was used
for fertilizer. The number of n.y.
drafting plants was increased from
so in 1913 to so in 1914.
The imports of lime for consump-
ton in the United States in 1914
we're reported by the bureau Of for
eian and domestic as 3d.
455 short tons, valued It $33,67O,
as compared with 4,139 short tons,
valued at $4S,53S in 1913, a decrease
in quantity of 6S4 tons and in value
CT $14,S6S. The quantity of imports
has been steadily decreasing and for
some years has been insignificant.
The exports of lime have steadily
increased in recent years, both in
quantity and value, until 1918, when
they amounted to 294,746 barrels,
valued at s212,345. In 1914 how
ever, they dropped to 241,4O6 bar
rels, valued at $170,744.
