COUNTY ONCE
NEARLY HAD CAPITAL

Newton, March S.-Almost as soon
as the state of Iowa had been admit.
ted into the union there began an
agitation for the removal of the seat
! Of government from Iowa City to
some point further west. On Febru-
ary ~, 1s47, the legislature passed
an act appointing three commission
ers to choose new site for the capt.
tai, as near as possible to the geo.
graphical center Of the state. These
commissioners proceeded with their
work and finally selected spot in
Jasper county about twenty-five miles
east Of the present city Of Dos Moines
and two miles southeast Of the pres
ent town of Prairie City; and they
named the place Monroe City. In the
last number Of the Iowa Journal of
History and Politics., published by
the State Historical society. there is
an account of how spectators and
settlers rushed in and bought lots in
the proposed town and staked of
claims In the surrounding country
But their hopes were not destined to
be fulfilled for at the next regular
session OF the legislature the law re-
iative to relocating the seat OF gov
eminent was repealed, the site Of
Monroe City was vacated and the
money paid for lots was refunded to
the purchasers.

IOWA UN|vERs|
FEELS WORLD WAR
LABORATORIES MANUFACTURE
THEIR OWN DRUGS BECAUSE
OF HIGH PRICES. .

Iowa City, March 8.-Iowa univer.
sity chemistry and pharmacy depart
ments are feeling the effects of the
world war painfully The university
laboratories are manufacturing their
own drugs in many cases. because OF
the prohibitive prices In the markets.
Mercury is now almost unobtain-
able, because Of the demand abroad
for that chemical in the caps of
shells-of which it is constituent
part.
Platinum, too, Is almost out Of
reach Selling at $110 an ounce, the
rare element is worth about Ave
times as much as gold. The normal
price is $4S an ounce. Iowa univer-
sity has a certain amount Of the COW
eted material and Prof. A. w. Hixson,
the university expert, says it could
easily be sold for three times it's nor
NAL value
Bromine is another unobtainable
article. The University of Wisconsin
chemical laboratories tried to get
three pounds of the chemical at the
only mandatory in the United
States the other day-and failed. The
maker said the entire output Of the
plant for 1916 has been contracted
for at Sc a pounds. The normal price
is 80 cents. Potassium bromide, or
dinarily valued at 80 cents a pound,
has climbed to 50 for that amount.
Potassium chloride has risen from
$25 ton to the enormous sum of
$3.50 per ton. Caustic potash, deemed
indispensable in the manufacture of
soap. is all but ungettable. also. 1t
normally sells for 18 cents pound
but it has leaped to $3.50 per pound.
Potash From Sea Weed.
Dr. r. B. Wylie of the University
Of Iowa geology department declares
1t is possible to make potash from
sea weed. He investigated the sea
weed beds during an extensive sur
vey on the coast of Alaska on behalf
Of the United States government sew
eral years ago and found that they
are large and rich in potash. No ef-
fort, however, has been made, he de-
clares, to manufacture the chemical
in that manner because no invention
has been produced whereby the weed
may be cut under water and brought
to shore for drying purposes.

DRAINAGE PROJECT
WILL BE APPROVED

Des Moines, March S.-There is
every indication that when the Skunk
river drainage project comes before
the board of supervisors in April that
there will be little objection to the
proposition from the land owners
along the stream who will be affected
by the improvement.
The present plans as drafted by
Jacob A. harmon of the Harmon En-
cheering company of Peoria, ILL.,, call
for retaining in the neighborhood OF
$4,000 acres of land by building levees
along each bank of the Skunk river
and preventing overflow during the
high water periods. The work will
cost about $237.000, but after 1t Is
finished the value of the land will be
greatly increased.
The hearing will be held April II,
1915, before the board of supervisors.
If there are any objections to the
drainage proposition they will be heard
at this time.
