Scrap Leather Used on Roada

It has been estimated that $500

Indians Made Salt.

The Delaware Indians made salt
from brine springs in New York state
and sold 1t to settlers as early as 1910,
making probably the first commercial
production Of salt In this country. The
manufacture of salt by white people in
the United States was begun near
Syracuse, N. Y, about 1888. Salt is
the most commonly used mineral In
the world. and no useful mineral ex-
eept coal, perhaps, occurs in greater
abundance or is more widely dlstrib-
uted in the United States.

Footprints Of Progress.

A good substitute for cork is OBJ
tanned from certain fungi, which are
dried and ground, mixed with cement
and consolidated by pressure. In
Norway process has been patented
to enable carbide to be used for driv-
ing motors. In Denmark a company
has been fioated to make briquettes
from heather. These have a higher
heat value than peat. Experiments
are being made to use chalk mari, es-
pecially that which comes from the
Limburg mines, as a fertilizer.

Famous Hudson River.

The entire length Of the Hudson
river is 300 miles. From Troy to the
mouth Of the river in New York bay,
distance Of $50 miles. the river is
tidal. owing to the low grade Of its
bed. by which the ocean tide is able
to back up. 1t Is this lower tidal
navigable portion of the Hudson that
Is Of so much importance. and, Of
course, the water Is salt. 1t is regarded
as really an estuary Of the sea. Above
Albany and Troy the river is a small
stream, and to its source the water
Is fresh.

ResourcefuI Bridegroom.

Just as a Portland (Me.) lawyer
was about to begin a wedding cere-
mony the lights in his office went out.
The bridegroom asked to be excused
q few minutes, and ran down into the
street, where he saw a lantern which
was used to warn vehicles Of a hole
in the ground. He borrowed 1t long
enough to become a benedict, and
neither he nor his bride regarded the
red light as an evil omen.

Rapid Communication.

A receiver which takes down dots
and dashes on sensitized tape at the
rate Of 200 words a minute Is the
latest device In wireless telegraphy.
As the human ear cannot interpret
a message so rapidly delivered the
transmission cannot be understood ex-
cept at stations using this machine.

Whats Art to This Senator7

Art received terrible walloping at
the national capitol when a senator
decided he wanted a private door into
his Office so that folks could not break
in on him unannounced. Summoning
workmen, he caused to be torn out
some Of the finest art work on the
walls Of the senate side and then had
q door installed.

CITY WAITS ALL
ANXIOUS TO RIDE
that farm HORSE
Manager Of Bureau Says She
Could Provide Farmers
With 100 Boys From
Omaha.

The song, "How " Coin to Keep
EN- Back on the Farm" doesn't ap-
! ply in Omaha, according to Mrs.
Mabel Walker, manager of the en-
ployment bureau of the Chamber OF
Commerce.
In fact there is strong back to
the land" sentiment in Omaha, Mrs.
Walker says. An appeal for boy
who would like to live on a ranch by
Mr.. and Mrs. ]. ]. Woltz, kenne-
bee, S. D.. published in The Bee two
days ago, has resulted in an ava
lanche of telephone calls from youths
eager to try farm life, and FIVE boys
have applied in person at the bureau
for the position.
Give Waits a Chance.
"Each>and every applicant believes
he is just the boy for the job" Mrs.
Walker said, "and as only one boy is
wanted the others will be bitterly
disappointed. l believe there are at
least 100 boys in Omaha who would
be better off on farms, and if farmers
will write me / will furnish them
with the finest kind of boys. Farmers
could do much to solve our social
unrest problem by giving city waits
a home"
Henry Woosley, years old, a
round faced little boy who never
rode horse in his life, is one of the
applicants. His mother died of the
influenza a year ago, and he has been
living with an aunt at 1892 Nebraska
avenue. but his aunt already has a
large family of her own, he says.
Still Hauling Ashes.
Rollie Mcdonald, another appli-
cant, is II years old. He stayed in
school till he reached the Sixth grade,
he says. then began making his liv-
ing hauling ashes. He is still hauling
ashes, and his one desire is to return
to school, he said.
Mr. and Mrs. Woltz offered to
adopt the boy they chose, and said
they would send him to school.

H 0LLAND AN D
'Ex-KAlSER AWAIT
MOVE OF ALLIES
Sentiment for Deposed Hohen
zoIIern Below Zero in the
> Netherlands, Jour-
nal Asserts.

The Hague, Jan. 24.--The Dutcl
government and the former German
emperor have settled down to await
the allies next move. Only ont
Dutch newspaper, the Amsterdam
Telegraaf, went beyond approval o,
the governments action and, while
heartily approving the stand on ma.
tiona' honor, said:
Sentiment for the former kaiser
here is below zero, and we believe
only an extremely small number oi
Dutchmen would have been hurt ii
he had been called to account some
way or ether for the terrible re.
sponsibility which rests upon him.
The Dutch people do not feel like
standing as bulwark about the
former kaiser. and the best part OF
our governments note is its total
absence of sympathy for the ac-
cused"
The Brussels newspaper. lie Ma.
tional Beige, has commented bitterly
OH the refusal, saying in effect that
Holland thereby proves herself, as
always. a friend OF the German
junkers and an enemy Of the entente.
Holland meanwhile is going for
ward wifi her plans to join the
league OF nations. The press indi-
Gates that not much opposition is cx-
pected and that Parliament probably
will vote Hollands participation
with little dissension

Test Well at Chadron
Promises to Develop
Nebraska Oil Field

Eben D. Warner of Chadron, Neb.,
recently organized an oil company
known as the Chadron Oil syndicate
and the company is already we'll
along with the first of three test
wells to be drilled in Nebraska and
South Dakota. The we'll is reported
as showing considerable gas, and
while the first of the four prospec-
tive producing sands is still some
200 feet away, a good showing of
high grade oil is also reported. The
other live issue in the field is the
Sioux syndicate, which is headed by
c.. M. Valentine of Omaha.
This section of Nebraska and
South Dakota has been carefully ex-
amined, and extensive geological
survey has been made of it by sew
eral prominent geologists, includ-
ing DR.. Condra, chief geologist of
Nebraska. All are most favorably
impressed with its possibilities as a
big producer of high grade crude
oil, The field is located a short dis
tance east and south of the new
Mule creek field, which recently
startled oil men by its large produc-
ton from the shallow sands. The
Mule creek field lays along the ex-
treme eastern border of Wyoming.

OD0RS OF SOUTH
SIDE PLANTS TOO
MUCH FOR SMITH
Police officer Resigns Rather
Than Battle, Smells Of Fer
ti|izer Plants Along
His Beat.

The odors of the South Side fer
tilizer plants caused Police Officer
Charles Smith, assigned to duty on
the South Side, to send his resigna-
ton to Chief Eberstein. A few days
elapsed and Smith asked permission
to withdraw his resignation. This
was granted and he was again sent
out on South Side beat. Ten days
after that he again failed to report
for duty. An investigation disclosed
peculiar state of affairs.
Smith, 26 years old, with wife and
one child, lives at 2l21 Leaven-
worth street. He was appointed to
the police force in November. De-
cember 6 he sent in his resignation,
telling Captain of Police John
Briggs the smell of the fertilizer
plants made him sick. Two weeks
rolled by and he asked that his
resignation be withdrawn. This was
permitted January 1.
When Captain Briggs called the
roll January 10, however, Smith
failed to respond. For l3 days he
was absent and Captain Briggs be-
came apprehensive. Friday night he
was found at his home by Sergeant
of Police James Sheahan, who got
his revolver, star, club and patrol
box keys. Smith told Sergeant
Sheahan he would come over and
explain TO the captain.

Denver Man Raising
Pole Cats; Pelts Are
Worth $8 to $50

"A new industry has sprung up
in Denver" said c. P. Farnsworth
of Boone, Ia, a stockman of the
Hawkeye state, who was a visitor
at the stock yards Saturday, en-
route home from the Western
Stock show.
This new and novel industry is
the breeding and raising of pole
cats or skunks by E. w. Bohn of
Denver, who had a number of the
little animals on exhibition at the
stock show. The animals had been
deodorized and some not. Not a
single person would ever have
known such an exhibit was in
place, had they not been directed
to it.
Il was told by the exhibitor that
skunk is as harmless as a rabbit,
affectionate as a dog and cleaner
than a cat. The animals are raised
for their fur the cost of the pelts
ranging from So to $50, depending
upon the texture and color of the
fur"
