POTASH MINING
Is Stopped in Germany until
after the War by Govern
ment Order.
lcorresnnndence OF AssocInted Press

BERLIN, July 21-The federal
council has issued an order prohibit
ing the Cinking of further shafts for
the development of potash mines
during the war. Work on all shafts
begun since July, 1914, must be sus-
pended. The ground taken by the
council is that labor is now too
scarce in Germany to waste 1t upon
unnecessary work such as opening OF
new potash mines. Notwithstanding
the pressure of the war a number OF
new mines have reached the pro-
ducing stage during the last two
years; and the total number of
mines producing or ready to produce
potash is now more than 200. Ten
years ago it was less than forty.
There are about 1000 kinds Of
mosquitoes.
