MORE GASOLINE.

Science has accomplished another great feat It has evolved, by ab- sorption methods, the extraction of gasoline from natural gas. This new means of obtaining gasoline is of greatest importance, when the coun- try's needs for gasoline threatens to outstrip the supply.
 : This extraction of gasoline from natural gas by compression and con- densation, has been an important and rapidly growing industry in re- cent years. In 1915 about 65,000- 900 gallons were produced by such methods, while in 1916, the estimat- ed production was 100,O00,000 gal Ions. This gasoline is of doubled importance, in that it can be blend ed with naphthas, otherwise unsatis- factory for use in the automobile, and made into an acceptable motor spirit.
 Now the absorption process is quite different from the older com pression process, and ere tnis, has not been described in the press.
 It is method recently commer- cially applied to natural gas, yield ing the same quality of gasoline and capable of being applied under conditions where the older process could not be employed profitably. By it the gasoline in natural gas, though extremely lean, can be ab- sorbed in oil from which it is separ- ated by distillation.

TEUTON BANKRUPTCY.

The New York World is authority for the statement that Austria is virtually bankrupt and confesses it, by paying interest on its gold-bear- ing bonds to outside, as well as to home creditors, in paper "kronen" and at a discount of 60 per cent in neutral money equivalent to gold.
 Germany with the mark" down few weeks ago, to 44.9 per cent discount in the same money, was evidently tottering on the edge of this financial abyss, when the reich bank decided to release gold by way of restoring it's disorganized ex- change with Switzerland Holland and Scandinavia. It gave up about $2O,00O,000, which exceeded it's gains in gold for over three month preceding. The effect has been a slight advance from the marks" greatest depreciation, but this is hardly drop in the bucket. Aus tria has practically no gold to give up. Germany cannot give up what it has for exchange purposes, with out further weakening the reich banks immense paper circulation, based on its gold.
 Austria is close to the bottom of the decline. If there is any durable arrest for Germany short of that and short of peace, it is not now ob- servable, unless through a resort by the kaiser to the mailed fist ap- piled to it's neutral neighbors, who dare to place such doubts upon Ger man solvcncy.

ton will require no eadjustments in Nenana Our town was built upon a dry" foundation and the transi- ton elsewhere will be unfelt here, beyond giving additional strength to local business enterprises and in surfing more permanent population in the future. Periodical pilgrim ages to nearby towns will offer fewer inducements henceforth, for the reason that other Interior towns will have nothing in the way of at fractions, liquid or otherwise, that Nenana does not possess. The money which heretofore has left Nenana to pay vacation expenses elsewhere, will remain here in future and a very large part of it will seek invest ment, either in local enterprises or in the development of the surround ing country. In this connection, it should be remembered that ours is a young town, comparatively new district, full of promise for the future. We are going forward, not backward, and the coming of pro- hibition will have the effect of stimulating our progress to very considerable extent by directing the attenton of less favored communi- ties to the possibilities of our town and district
