DOUBLE POTASH PRODUCTION
Nebraska AIkaIi Lakes Still Lead, Ac.
cording to Reports Submitted to
Uncle Sam.

More potash was produced during
the first six months of 1917 than was
made during the entire year 1916. The
reports received by Uncle Sans geo.
| logical survey have been reduced to
terms Of the commercial ulit common
ly used to measure the available or
water soluble (K.O) in the product,
and only material actually sold by the
producer during this period is In
cluded.
The Nebraska alkali lakes still lead,
having yielded about one-third the en-
tire production. There nre now at
least four important operators In this
field.
No production is reported from field
spar or other Silicate rocks, but con-
siderable quantities Of potash salts
and potash-bearing fertilizers were OBJ
tained from the dusts In cement mills
and blast furnaces.
The production from kelp was about
Is per cent of the total, as 1t was In
1916.
Potash from distilled slop and other
organic sources made 10 per cent or
more of the total.
The figures seem to indicate that
the production for 1917 will exceed
$4,000 tons Of potash (K.O) or two
and One-half times that in 1916. This
is about ten per cent of the average
normal yearly consumption of the
country before the war, showing the
need Of further stimulating domestic
production of potash.

WAR INCREASES Jobs
Uncle Sam Creates Great Num-
ber Of New Offices.
Civil Service Commission, Which Must
Supply Men for Places, One Of
Busiest Government Bodies

A tremendous amount of work has
fallen upon Uncle Sans civil service
commission since the beginning Of the
war. The commission Is designed to
ill vacancies in governmental offices
by a process Of competitive examina-
tiOns and selection on the basis of
merit. The civil service commission
is an employment agency in that it
tests the fitness of every person 1t
certities as eligible. Equipped, as it
is, with some 1900 representative
agencies-that is, local boards Of ex-
amlners-situated In every part of the
country It is eminently qualified to
perform the important service of
bringing the man and the job tOgeth-
er, so far as the needs of the govern
ment are concerned.
In addition to supplying immediate
needs, the commission through its 5000
local representatives, has canvassed
the country and enrolled for future
use about $4,000 mechanics of all
kinds who have expressed their will
ingness to accept employment in a
navy yard or arsenal if called upon.
Other mobilization" efforts Of the
commission consist of lists of the
members of this springs graduating
classes of the universities and col
legeS, the name, character and number
Of employees of every manufacturing
plant in cities having n post office Of
the first or second class, and the name,
address and speciality of practically
every economic expert in the United
states. These lists will be used as
occasion arises in making direct and
personal announcement Of the govern
ments requirements in civil branches.
The unusual burden which the war
has imposed upon the civil service
commission is easily realized when the
tremendous number of Offices created
by our present situation is taken into
consideration. Manual laborers, work
ers in industry, technical, skilled and
even unskilled workmen Of every sort
are required by the government In
connection with the huge undertakings
which the war has made necessary.
There was tendency to abrOgate
civil service rules and open positions
to noncOmpetitive appointment. How
ever, this tendency was checked, and
the carefully established system of
past years will not give way, it is be-
lieved, under the difficulties Of war.
Examinations are being given con-
stantly at all the civil service offices
in the greatest variety of subjects.
The commission is authorized to OK
cude from any examination aliens and
those who do not show the necessary
physical and moral qualities.
Officials of the commission state
that large number of communica-
tions 0re received in which the writer's
fail to give their full post office ad-
dresses, and in many cases the letters
are not signed.

Most Admired Statue.

What is the most admired statue In
Washington? The memorial to Mrs.
Adams by Mr.. Saint -Gaudens, thinks
Mr.. Moore. He says that 'In spite Of
the remOteness of location and the DIFF
ficulty Of finding 1t In Rock Creek ceme-
terry, no other work Of art in Washing
ton is really seen by so many people.
Undoubtedly the element of mystery In
both figure and setting has to do with
Its fame; but prefer to think that In
this memorial the sculptor has ex-
pressed (using his own words to mel
the soul face to face with the great
est of all mysteries'-the problem, If Il
man die shall he live agaln?"
Such piece Of sculpture, touching
every mind and heart, outwears In its
appeal all the colossal figures and
speaking likenesses. 1t would triumph
In any referendum and need never fear

YOU NEED NOT SUFFER WITH
BACKACHE AND RHEUMATISM

For centuries GOLD MEDAL Haarlem
Oil has been a standard household remedy
for kidney, liver, bladder and stomach
trouble, and all diseases connected with
the urinary organs. The kidneys and
bladder are the most important organs of
the body. They are the filters, the puri-
fiers of your blood. If the poisons which
enter your system through the blood and
stomach are not entirely thrown out by
the kidneys and bladder you are doomed.
Weariness, sleeplessness, nervousness,
dependency, backache, stomach trouble,
headache, pain in loins, and lower abdo-
men, gall-stones, gravel, difficulty when
urinating, cloudy and bloody urine, rheu-
matism, sciatica, lumbago, all warn you
to look after your kidneys and bladder.
