Tho court cannot find In

POTASH MADE OF FELDSPAR
Discovery, II is Said, viii Enable
: America to Produce All the
! .lls,, Amount Needed.

The European war has brought the
United States face to face with the
problem of supplying its own potash.
Several new methods of providing a
substitute for German fertilizers have
c zen brought to the attention of the
government. The most promising Of
these is that patented by Canadian,
which provides for the extracting Of
potash from ordinary feldspar. The
feldspar is heated with limestone and
iron oxide at a temperature CT about
:2,200 degrees Fahrenheit, which pro-
duces a partly fused mass that is cas-
ily decomposed by weak acid. From
this product the potash salts can be
readily extracted for further purifica-
tion.
Another method of obtaining potash
will be tried out at New Orleans dis
8illery where nolasses is used in large
quantities. In the distilleries where
molasses is fermented it is said that
more than one hundred and six tons OF
potash is wasted daily, and is it this
waste the New Orleans company is en-
.deayoring to forestall. 1t is possible
to make fertilizer from this otherwise
worthless material at a price that will
meet competition even after the war
4s over.

"a powerful machine.
The small car which Mr.. Lucas was

the full weight of the machine on his
head. The car was one Of the light

SIClC pOdOy SiioSSJ hAs
maryeled at the excellence of the
work.
Manufacturers who have supplied
bituminous materials for the treat
ment of the road have detached their
special experts for this service and
the traffic over the road has demon
strated under carefully observed con-
ditions the relative value Of the sew
eral types of road making up this great
highway.
The Chevy Chase road is expert
mental. 1t consists of different types
Of pavement-bituminous macadam
laid by the penetration method, sur
face treatments of waterbound ma
cadam, asphaltic surfaces on concrete
foundations, bituminous surfaced con-
crete, plain and oil cement concrete
and vitriied brick, all of which are
under daily observation by expert
road builders to ascertain which OF the
types is best suited to the traffic and
which is condemned by practica, test
under the same conditions of climate,
soil, rainfall, heat and cold and like
traffic requirements. 1t would be just
the same to the Office Of public roads
which has written this open book in
concrete, brick and stone whether any
part Of it or all parts of it should fail,
failure in materials used, in construc-
ton, in durability, in cost, in mainte-
nance-the test is the thing.
Road building is science now, and
efficiency is the only test Of quality.
In the stones used in the construc-
ton of the Chevy Chase road, their
specific gravity, their weight per cubic
foot, their water absorption, their per-
centage of wear, their hardness and
toughness are all determined by the
most careful scientific tests. Patrol.
men are constantly employed on this
road to keep account of whatever de-
fects in materials and construction
may develop and exact data as to the
cost Of maintenance.
The Chevy Chase road was fortu'
nately placed for the reason that all
of it's sectionc Of types have been sub
jected to precisely the same sort OF
traffic year in and year out and the
section or type that has not stood the
strain has been as important an object
lesson to road builders as the section
or type that has maintained itself un.
der like strain. The road, as whole.
is great experiment conducted by the
most competent engineers to demon
strate the most practical things.
