SEEKING SECRETS OF PLANTS
Experiments Going On to Determine
How Nitrogen Is Assimiiated
From the Atmosphere.

There is reason to hope that the
world may be greatly enriched
through the results of observations
and experiments to determine just
how certain plants manage to assimi-
late nitrogen from the atmosphere.
1t has been discovered that such
plants as peas, beans and clOvers have
their roots invaded by myriads Of
minute organisms which may be either
bacteria or parasitic fungi.
These organisms in some unknown
way incite the plants to increased ac-
tivity so that they are able to assimi-
late free nitrogen from the atmos-
phere and thereby to supply, through
their own subsequent decay, an abun-
dance OF nitrates, nitrites, ammonia
and other nitrogenous substances to
the soil.
Efforts have been made TO deter
mine whether some other stimulus be-
sides that furnished by the organisms
referred to may not be supplied to
plants which VIII enable them still
more effectually to. assimilate nitro
gen from the air for the ultimate
enrichment of the soil.- Washington

TROPICAL j.
Area in British Columbia, G. 3Se 20 tf
Yukon Border, Has Hundreds
of Hot Springs.

Discovery of an almost tropical val
ley with rivers of boiling water, min
eral springs, abnormal plant growth
and abounding with game, in far
northern British Columbia is reported
by Frank Perry, mining engineer of
vancouver, returned after IL years
passed In prospecting the valley close
to the Yukon border. The area Of
the terrain covered by Mr. Perry Is
roughly 700 miles north and south and
300 miles wide, between the coastal
range and the Lizard and Fort Nelson
rivers.
The unusual sight of a heavy fog In
a winter attracted him to the valley
Exploration showed the valley to be
approximately 200 miles long and
about 40 miles wide. Rivers of hot
water running through, were fed by
hundreds of hot springs, the steam
from these being condensed on rising.
forming the fog which Perry had first
seen.
Tree growth In the valley was alb
normal, Mr.. Perry stated. Ordinary
wild rose bushes were like trees, and
so dense that 1t was impossible to
force way through. Some tree
trunks were fully one foot and a half
In diameter.
important mineral deposits were dis
covered by Mr.. Perry, including gold,
silver and copper. Coal, iron and oil
formations were also found.

HIS MIND FIRMLY MADE UP
Prospective Juror Evidently Not a
Man Who Could Easily Be Infiu-
enced by Trifies.

The last time a jury trial was de-
manded In city court at Jeffersonville
a special venire was issued by the
mayor under act Of the legislature,
and the court took care that every
member should be man who could be
depended on to vote according to the
eyidence-as we'll at least as the court
could Judge, the indianapolis News re-
ports. The prosecutor, James l.. Bot
tOrff, threw some light on the reason.
Recently, he said, jury was being i'm
paneled to try liquor case and the
taIesmen were being interrogated One
local merchant had been practically ac-
cepted when the prosecutor asked
whether he had any objections to find
Ing man guilty under the prohibition
laws. "You could not present evidence
that would convince me of his guilt"
was the answer. II should vote for
acquittal If knew he was guilty"
The prospective Juror was permitted
to stand aside He seemed to have
found sure way to avoid being
drawn for jury service.

A NoN-PARTIsAN NEWSPAPER
Editorial Notes
Academy Band

A(OuSHtS Dutt0
Nothing can be said or done
that is too good for the success
full start which has been made
toward the organization of an
Academy Band. Under the
splendid leadership of Prof.
Rufus Crandall the small group
of boys are doing splendidly.
Both the school and town gets
boost from such a fine band.
If only the spirit will progress
instead of deterriating, the pro-
fits reaped will more than pay
for the efforts put forth. The
boys should be urged by every
parent to stick to their chance of
opportunity under such a fine
musical master, and, before long
Snowflake can boast of one of
finest bands in Navajo County.

ARIZONA WINS
IN FIGHT FOR
3 CENT FARES
Reduction in Passenger Rates
Saves the People of Arizona
Million Dollars a Year.

Growing the efforts of sever
al years continuous work, study
and contest, Arizona has at last
won the famous "Three-Cent
Fare Case" This means that a
reduction of 1.2c per mile has be
obtained on all passenger rates
throughout the state. Statis-
tics show that this reduction a.
mounts to an actual saving of a
million dollars year to the
people of Arizona and it's accom-
plishment has only been made
possible through the untiring
effort and expert handling of
this matter by Corporation Com
missioner Amos A. Belts. This
can only happen
If
the voters of Arizona recognize
the fact only a man of Amos A.
Belts experience and familiarity
with this subject can accomplish
it's fulfillment when the case
comes up for oral argument next
December or January. The
foregoing is one of the many
vital traffic matters that are now
pending before the Interstate
Commerce Commission which
will require both experience and
familiarity with the subject if
they are to be won. Let the
people of Arizona continue to
profit by his experience, ability
and and re-elect Amos A. Belts
as Corporation Commissioners, an
office he has so ably and con-
scientiously filled in the past.

G|VESUPPEN
FOOTBALL JOB
Routine of Entire Season at
Franklin Field Too Much
For Bill.
PHILADELPHIA, March a.

PHILADELPHIA, March 2s.-Al-
though William II. Hollenback, one
Of the greatest halfbacks of all times
among University of Pennsylvania
football players, repeatedly hinted at
the expiration of last falls campaign
that he would give up the position
of directing backfield material at
Franklin field. 1t was not until today
that the whole-hearted coach con-
firmed this intention.
Hollenback was seen at his office
in the Harrison building. Upon ap-
pearing in his place of business 1t
was evident that the big fellow had
plenty to think Of other than de-
veloping football men and plays. He
sat with sleeves rolled up at the tele-
phone, through which he was talk
ing of coal and Philadelphia. At the
same time, he was glancing over cor
respondence from one or two colleges
asking his recommendation OF men
sought to handle football material.
He was really too busy to even men,
ton football. but did state that he
had fully decided not to give 30 much
time to material at Franklin field.
Then in the midst of this a business
associate came in to talk more Phila-
delphia. This man OF affairs was
none other than William Hammer.
who put the talk on Big Bill with
music.
Hollenback giving up his posi-
ton as backfield coach and de-
signer Of plays does not infer that
he will not be among those assist.
ing at various times with the foot
ball men Of the Red and Blue. He
pointed out that last year he spent
several hours afternoons and eve-
nings at Franklin Field, and at
the same time there were many oc-
casions when he should have been
at his place of business.
Hollenback Is one of the most ar.
dent supporters OF the Red and
Blue that the oolors ever had. He
always has been successful with
men on the football field. In his
record are five years spent at State
College. where he placed the Nit.
tany Lions on the way to present.
day success; he worked year at
Syracuse, one at P. M. G. and a
season at Missouri.
Hollenback had nothing to say
regarding the policy at the Univer.
Bill will be at Franklin Field from
time to time during the football
operations, but does not want to be
tied down to the routine Of an en-
tire season. There will be a meet.

which no doubt the names OF those
expected to direct the destinies OF
