STILL A DEMAND FOR HOPS
Despite Prohibition, the Production 10
Heavy and Officials Cannot
Account for IL.

One of the most puzzling phenom.
enon of prohibition In the United
States is a continuing demand for
hops, which are the source of the "bit-
ter" principle characteristic of beer
developed by American brew masters,
says Washington dispatch to the
New York World
The production of hops now Is as
heavy as in 1917, a year before war
time prohibition became effective.
The breweries which used the bulk of
the crop have stopped beer making.
Officials are unable to account for the
prevailing strong demand
In 1917, with breweries i'm operation,
this country had $4,000 acres planted
In hops and Il production of 29,3SS, 600
pounds. Exports amounted to Ais.
600 pounds. In 1913 production was
21.4S1 900 pounds. Last year, 1919.
production was 29,346,OOO pounds. 1t
is estimated that about 29,0OO,OOO
pounds will be produced this year,
showing steady climb back toward
the preprohibition use.
Unless exports jump greatly in ex-
cess of last years, which totaled T.
46G,952 pounds, about three-fourths of
the American crop will remain here.

AGE-0LD BUILDING MATERIAL
"Pise," in Use for Many Centuries, Is
Merely Simple Form Of
Concrete.

What is plse? The word. which In
Its complete form is written pise de
terre. betrays French origin and.
from its general appearance might
well suggest some affinity with the
world of art. These preliminary i'm
pressions. however. will be found mis-
leading. There is nothing peculiarly
French in pise dwellings, though they
are common enough in some parts of
France. and reference To them abOunds
in French literature of the eighteenth
century.
The word itself, traced to it's Latin
origin. apparently means nothing more
artistic than battered" Perhaps the
simplest definition of pise is provided
by Pliny the Elder, who calls II
"earth battered between boards"
meaning by boards a form such as may
be used for concrete in construction
work.
The Roman sage adds that IL was an
old and well-tried system of building
and remarks that Hannibal used this
material for watch towers on the tops
of hills in Spain during his campaign.
Who knows whether it was not also
in use when Cheops built his Great
Pyramid for there are prehistoric
pise buildings in New Mexico and Ari-
iona which, some say. date back al
most to that period?
Certainly history cannot trace the
system to its origin, and the pise
dwellings now visible in France. Spain,

elsewhere may give no complete indi-
cation OF the extent to which this ma
terial was employed in other centuries.
