was the fact. so far as Ordway fans
are concerned. that Ordway won the
game. 1t is not always an easy task
to win over Sugar City for they do
play good ball, and when one town
wins over the other 1t is something
worth growing over One of the
other features was the home run

MUST HAVE NITROGEN
Men Of Science Preparing for the Time
When the Chilean Nitrate Fields
Arc Exhausted.

Farmers of Europe and America
have been almost entirely dependent
for nearly century upon the Chilean
nitrate fields, which have stood, liter
ally between the world and starvation.
Behind a plateau 5000 feet above the
sea level and 20 miles from the Pa
cific coast, is dreary, parched, almost
rainless strip of land, where nature
has deposited millions Of tons of nitro
gen in the. form of nitrate of soda.
Not only the power to produce crops,
but also the power to wage war and
to develop many essential industries
depends upon nitrogen. Before the
war the German chemist, OSWALD,
wrote: IF great war were to break
out between two great powers, one or
which were to prevent the export of
saltpeter from the few ports of Chile,
it would thereby make T. impossible
for the enemy to continue longer than
it's ammunition supply would last"
Germany had accumulated 100000
tons of Chilean saltpeter before the
war. It is estimated that the Chilean
nitrate beds will be exhausted some
time during the present century. Sci
entists and engineers, therefore, are
bending every effort to other means OF
supply. Nitrogen is now being recov-
cred from the air by various processes
and in several countries.

RAISED STATUS OF LAB0RER
Joseph Arch Will Long Be Remer'
bered as Champion Of English
Farm Workers.

From plowboy to member Of parlia-
ment was the remarkable rise of Jo-
seph Arch, who recently died at the
age of 90. He was unique figure In
English parliamentary life, being In
1885 the sole w6rkingman member OF
the house Of commons. At that time
there was no kind of labor party in
existence there. Mr.. Arch achieved
fame as the champion of the English
farm laborer when the tiller of the
soil reared his family on a wage OF
81 a week, subsisted chiefly on barley
bread and hardly knew the taste Of tea
or sugar In 1872 he enrolled 200 farm
workers in an organization that came
to be known as the National Agricul-
ture LabOrers' union. whose leaders
the bishop Of London wanted to duck
in horse pond "AduIt baptism" Mr..
Arch rejOined to the bishops state
mcnt "is not the rule of the Church
Of England" Mr.. Arch is credited with
having done more than any other man
to improve the condition of England's
peasantry. He was popular in parlia-
ment. One of his constituents was the
prince of Wales, afterward King Ed
ward He referred to Mr.. Arch as
"my member" Mr. Arch also was
Primitive Methodist preacher. He was
fond of his pipe and an occasional
glass of ale.

Mine Produces Coal and Sand.

A mining plant that is decidedly
unique is located in Ohio. Both coal
and sand are tEcen from the one
property which consists Of $50 acres.
The surface strata is high grade mold
ing sand and has an average depth
of about nine feet. 1t is deposited on
q bed of sl,Ale about five feet in thick
ness anG Under this is seam of ex
cellent coal averaging from 4 to 5
eeeet. Shipments Of sand already have
been made to fOundries throughout the
country. A considerable tonnage Of
coal also has been mined. AS the
shale strata is uncovered by the re-
moval Of the sand, steam shovels will
be utilized to strip the shale, thereby
exposing the seam of coal which will
be mined in the open. In compare
lively few localities is the coal seam
sufficiently near the surface to permit
of stripping. The sand is mined by
steam shovel and is conveyed by mine
cars to stockhouse from which it
is loaded into cars by a belt con

400 tons of sand a day.-Scientific

OLD "BLUE LAW, HAS STUCK
All Efforts to Amend Famous Statute
y Of Pennsylvania Have Thus Far
Been Unavailina.

Once more an effort Is to be made
to amend the most famous of all
laws on the statute books of Penn
sylvania-the venerable blue law. en-
acted April %, 1904.
1t is said that at every regular ses-
sion of the legislature during the 125
years since that awful crimp was put
in Sunday conviviality, an attempt has
been made to repeal it entirely or to
amend it, Girard writes In the Phila-
delphia Press.
But that old law entitled IAN act
for the prevention Of vice and i'm.
morality and for other purposes" has
survived all the assaults of those who
would destroy it.
A century and quarter Of world
revolution, Of tumblipg thrones, Of daz-
cling inventions and economic and So
cial changes finds that statute Of 1894
as unbreakable and rigid as the eter-
nal laws of the Modes and Persians.
Those old legislation bricks Of 1894
regarded 1t as being vastly more
wicked to shoot a rabbit on Sunday
than to drink hot toddy.
One offender was tagged with a fine
Of $25. the other n shilling and half.
It was impossible under a strict en-
forcement Of that law to operate a
canal boat. railroad train. street

Make Gas From Straw.

A Canadian inventor has worked
out new application of thrift In the
form of gas, which can be made
from straw. The invention will be of
special value in farm communities, as
it will enable the farmers to utilize
straw that now goes to waste. The
gas is made in three-cylinder retort.
Each cylinder holds bale Of straw
seven feet long, two feet wide and
six inches thick With the chambers
closed the straw is ignited and allowed
to burn from 30 to 40 minutes. It is
said that $4,000 cubic feet of gas can
be generated from ton of straw, in
addition to which there will be by
products of. six to eight gallons Of tar
and $40 pounds. of carbon from which
lamp black. can, be. obtained.
