ITALIAN CHEMICAL
 TRADE CONSTANTLY
 INCREASES IMPORT

In Italy, especially at Turin, con- siderable quantities of acetic acid are obtained in distilling wood for the manufacture of charcoal The better grades of acetic acid are received from Great Britain. The latest stat istical tables published by the gov ernment at Rome show that during the first quarter of 1917 p tons of pure acetic acid, not exceeding 10 per cent in glacial acetic acid, and valued at 5000 Italian lire, were ex- ported from Italy, while 21 tons of pure acetic acid. worth 73,000 lire, containing more than 90 per cent of glacial acetic acid, were imported. This product is very largely used in Lombardy, consular district of Milan, in the dyeing trade.
 The demand for bichromates is supplied by Italian manufacturers, whose production is almost sufficient to meet the requirements. In fact only insignificant quantities are im- ported. The Italian producers are in Genoa
 The types of bleaching powder or chloride of lime that are in demand are the 8 per cent grade, British standard, white, used for disinfec-

tions. and the 70-75 grade, gray, fused, used in ammunition factories and refrigerating plants. It is im- ported from Great Britain. During the first quarter of this year 21S tons,, worth 33,000 lire, were shipped into Italy.
 Carbolic or phenic acid is imported from Great Britain in 50-kilo zincked iron drums, the grades required being 35-37 during the winter months and 39-40 in the other months. As this product is used for making explosives it is controlled by the government and offers will have to be addressed either to the government at Rome or to it's officials in America.
 The 76-7S grade of caustic soda has an excellent market. while the demand for the 72-73 grade is limit ed. It is extensively used here in the soap industry. and there are numer- ous soap factories in Milan.
 Chlorate of potash is manufactured in Italy. There is a factory in Leg nano in this district. The product is under the governments control. as it is used in making explosives. Con- siderable quantities are also import ed. Offers are to be made to the l government at Rome or it's officials | in America.
 l Italy produces substantial quanti- ties of citric acid and supplies other countries, including the United States. | GlYceriu is obtained here from the 1 distillation of fat acids in the soap industry, but large quantities are also 1 imported. Glycerin is controlled by the government.
 There is no demand for soda ash l inasmuch as. owing to the high freight rates, it's price would be SC excessive that it is preferable to use caustic soda.
 Blue vitrol or sulphate of copper pure. 99-991a. is largely used for technical treatment of grape vines Although it is produced in Italy, some quantities also are imported, the United States having supplied 12s tons and Great Britain 25 tons dur ing the first quarter of this year.

 The minister spoke of the increas- ing needs of these Serbian peasants during the coming cold months. Those Serbs who have escaped. and who are here at Corfu and at various Balkan points. can send little or no relief, for they lost everything and have nothing to give.
 Tt is for this reason. said the minister. that the funds advanced by the United States government are truly providential, and arc saving Serbian lives. thousands of them"
 The advance made hy the United States was 15.O00,000 francs. or s. OOo,00O. This was designed to cover a period of three months; and at this rate the advance for a year would be $12,00o,000 or 60,000.0U0 francs The distribution of these funds is under the direction of Dr. Nintchtich, with the American Charge dAffairs. II. Percival Dodge, in frequent consulta- ton with him, and exercising Amer ican supervisian.
 In making the expenditures, the first $S,000,000 has been divided in three parts of S1,0O0,OO0 each. The first million is being employed for the Serbian soldiers held as prisoners in Germany Austria and Bulgaria, and for the civilian Serbs interned in these countries. Together these Serb prisoners and interned aggregated about 100000. These people get a bare existence in the prison camps where they are held, and anything beyond this bare existence comes from the American funds.
 The second $1,000,0O0 is used for pensions and relief to the wounded Serbian soldiers no longer able to the Serbian peasantry remaining in Serbia
 The third s1,OOO,OOO will be used mainly for reconstruction work in Serbia, in replacing bridges, roads etc. which have been destroyed, SC that Serbia, one restored to it's peo- pie, may be brought back, in part at least, to it's former condition

AMERICAN MONEY SAVING LIVES IF
 SERBIAN PEOPLE
rRepubIiean A. p. Leased wirel

CORFU, Island of Corfu, Dec. 12.- The funds advanced 10 Serbia by the United States government are saving the lives of the Serbian peo- ple,' said the Serbian Minister of Public Works. pr. Momtchilo Mint chitch. who has been charged with the expenditure of the advances from the American government.
 Dr. Nintchitch had been telling Of the various uses the American money was put to, for the 136000 Serbian prisoners in Germany and for in- termed civilians, refugees, and pen sions. But now he turned to a story of the cruelty and butchery which the Bulgars are still prosecuting against the Serbs.
 Serbia has suffered more than any other country" said Dr. Nintchtch. for not even the ruin of Belgium and the devastated regions of France can be compared with what Serbia has suffered. The people of Belgium and France had seaports to go to escape in ships. and they had railways. But the Serbian people had no ports for escape. and when the Monastir rail- way line was cut by the Bulgars they had no railway. So they were literal- ly caught in trap, with no means of cgress, and except for those who made the exodus across the moun- tains. the whole peasant population has come under the control of the Bulgar invaders. Moreover Belgium and France have been under the eyes of England and America, while Ser bia is cut off from the world with no knowledge of what goes on there. and no mail from there for two years.
 "The Serbian peasants have been stripped of everything. All their horses, cattle and livestock has beer taken, and their farm machinery has been destroyed. Men. women and children have been killed in the most revclting manner. and on the most flimsy preteXt In this the Bulgars

MINERAL DEPOSITS
In EASTERN NEVADA

Twenty-Five mining districts in
eastern Nevada are described in a
report recently issued by the United
States Geological Survey. Department
of the Interior, as Bulletin 648, Notes
on Some Mining Districts in Eastern
Nevada" by ]. M. Hill. These dis
tricts are widely scattered through
an area extending from the northern
part of the State to the extreme
southern part, in southeastern Clark
county. Not much has heretofore
been known about the geologic fea-
lures of the ore deposits In these
districts, because they are relatively
inaccessible or undeveloped.
Silver. lead, copper and gold are
the principal valuable metals found,
but tungsten and bismuth are also
known to occur. Many of the depos-
its were found in the early sixties,
when the rich oxidized pres were
worked, but others have since been
discovered from time to time, valu-
able ore bodies having been found as
recently as 1911.
According to this report, most of
the ore deposits occur in sedimentary
rocks that border intrusions of gran
ties or porphyries. Gold and silver are
found in Tertiary volcanic rocks of
other parts of Nevada, but only one
deposit of precious metal "a free
milling gold ore-has so far been
found in such rocks in this region.
The report is chiefly a record of
facts. most of which are of local and
practical interest. 1t is intended IS
a guide to those who wish to know
something of the geologic occurrence.

opment of the ore deposits in the

When, in 1911. the British Board of

which it set forth in its report. The
board said:

At that time the industries of the

HOURS OF LABOR
FOR FARMERS

Hon. Charles f. Reavis of Nebraska
attributes the present prosperity OF
the farmers of the West quite as
much to their close attention to work.
and long hours, as to the war condi-
tons that have created an abnormal
demand for the products of agricul-
ture. To illustrate his point he tells
the story of a young easterner VINO
went west to assist in the harvest.
The farmer knocked at his door 10
arouse him in the morning.
The young man sleepily asked,
What do you want?"
The farmer replied, II want you to
get up. We must harvest the oats"
The question came. What time is
it?"
1T is three o'clock"
The young man sat up in alarm
and cried. Great God! are they wild?
Do we have to sneak up on them?"
Mr.. Reavis claims that if the farm
er tried to accomplish his duties in
the workday commonly followed by
members of Congress it would be but
a short time before bankruptcy would
overtake him.

FROM OUR

The Democratic press is priding
itself OF the assertion that every
newspaper in the State is against the
change at the University demanded
by the new majority Of the board of
regents. While this is not the case,
for there are numerous independent
publications that stand with the re-
gents. such a condition would be all
the more deplorable, since it would
prove conelusively that the news
papers standing for the old regime at
the University are standing against
the interests of their readers, who
constitute a majority of the electors
of Nevada. This is beyond peradven-
ture, for the voting shows that a big
majority of the people demanded q
change insofar as placing the affairs
of the University in the hands of
another president. If a majority OF
the people insist on the change and
a majority of the newspapers oppose
the change, then the new regents
cannot do better than stay with the
masses who pay the taxes and whose
children look to the University for
the higher education that should not
be denied them for the sake of per-
petuating a political control-[Tono-
