WAR FORCES BRITAIN
TO ENLARGE EMBASSY

People noting the completion of an ad-
dition to the British Embassy do not
know perhaps that the enlargement was
made necessary by the war.
The force Of secretaries has been great
ly augmented since the European conflict
began and their desks and equipment
overfowed into the historic ballroom Of
the Embassy.
This congested condition will be re-
Jieved by the addition which is built after
the distinctly British architecture Of the
Embassy proper and appears more like
a residence than an office building.

had to contend with, think we were a
very industrious family about bathing.
In the first place, the reservoir on the

rule that each member of the family old
enough to carry a pail must bring water
from the cistern in the wood shed for the

the wretch who used all the water and
forgot to fill the reservoir, Then the tub
had to be emptied each time, by dipping
OUT the water until it was light enough
to carry. Gerald and Charlie got around
this once by using the same water; but
mother strongly discouraged them from
ever trying it again. From the June

Evergreen Tree Leaf Oils.

WASHINGTON, June 5. 1916. Shoe
backing owes it's peculiar aromatic odor,
family suggestive of the deep woods
where spruce or hemlock needles pad the
ground, to an oil which is manufactured
from these same kinds of needles. SINH
lar oils are obtained from the foliage and
small twigs of various cone-bearing
trees, and find use for number of pur-
poses. In Europe the finer of these oils
are used extensively as perfume in soap.
They are common components of lini-
ments and other medicinal preparations.
Cedar oil is chiefly used in the prepare
ton of Insecticides, and, to some extent,
in making linlment.
Investigations of the yield and the
value of the oil obtainable from some Of
our Southern and Western trees have
been made by the Forest Service, partly
with view to the possible utilization of
waste material left after numbering in
the National Forests. In these investi-
cations, longleaf and western yellow pine
leaves produced the most promising re-
suits, but the needle oils obtained from
these pines did not surpass the already
firmly established spruce and hemlock
oils. The large quantities of needles and
twigs on Forest Service timber sale areas
are not only sheer waste, but also form
a special fire hazard. Ar increased mar.
ket for leaf oil would make possible the
utilization of some of this waste ma
terial.
The industry, though small, is fairly
old in the United States. The value of
the annual production of needle oil is
about $4,000. Black and white spruce
and eastern hemlock produce very SINH
lar oils, 10000 to $4,000 pounds annually,
worth As to 60 cents per pound. Red
cedar produces $1,000 to 20, 900 pounds of

oil having the same value per pound as
the spruce and hemlock oil. A few other
species furnish the rest of the confer
leaf oil produced in the United States.
Besides the home product, small quanti-
ties of needle oil are imported from
Europe. One of these, silver fir oil,
brings four dollars a pound. In most
cases these oils have pleasant odor. A
few are disagreeable when first distilled
but become pleasant with age.
The greater portion of the oil produced
in the United States is distilled by small
farmers in New England during the win
ter months when farm work is slack. In
1912, Seattle firm began the distillation
of leaf oil from western red cedar on a
large scale, but found that at the going
market value of 40 cents pound the oil
scarcely repaid the cost of production. 1.
was chiefly used in manufacturing an in
secticide containing IS per cent of cedar
oil and 65 per cent of an absorbent made
from the finely ground shells of peach
pits. Four dollars and half to five dol
lars and half per ton, depending on the
oil content. was paid for the leaves and
twigs.
A firm at Grants Pass, Oregon, has
patents covering methods and apparatus
for utilizing western yellow pine needles
in the production of fibre after the oil is
removed by distillation. Their plant con-
sists of wooden tanks with steam con-
nections with daily capacity Of 1000
pounds of raw material, from which ten
POUNDS of oil are obtained, and by suit
able treatment, the spent needles produ 9
long tough fibre that can be woven into
fabric or mixed with hair and made into
mattresses.
The distilation process is very simple.
Steam is passed through the needles,
usually at atmospheric pressure. The
oil volatilizes and the mixed vapors pass
into cooling apparatus where eondensa-
ton takes place, leaving layer of Oil
and layer of water. Distillation by
steam under pressure is more rapid and
produces more oil. Cutting the needles
in small pieces before treatment in
creases the oil production. Young trees
yield most. Trees growing in the open
contain more Oil than those in a dense
stand. The winter and spring months
are best for OIL content.
