A plant for the extraction of nitro
gen from the air is being built at La
Grande, Wash, at cost of approx

abandoned for the present one.

After the army bill had been per-
fected in both houses of congress and
sent to President Wilson for sigma
ture the senate adopted an amendment
to the war budget bill to put conscrip-
ton out of force four months after the

South, Jared badly and lamented that
they were not back in "Dixie's land"

creation Of our present day Dixie
would, in the words Of Mr.. Brinton,
require us to strain at gnat and
swallow q camel"
