VALUABLE PLANT
Is TESTED HERE
1t Is Rich in an Oil That Goes
into Lavendar and.
Other Perfumes
A GOVERNMENT PROJECT

Three members of the faculty
Vernon Howell, Vernon KY
ser, and H. R. Totten-went out
to the field back of Mack Ho-
gan's, down on the old Hillsboro
road, Saturday afternoon and
plantedRn eighth of an acre of
Berganiot mint, known in the
language of science as mentha
citrata.
This may be the beginning of
the production in North Caro-
lima of a valuable oil used in the
manufacture of perfumes.
The United States Bureau Of
Plant Industry sent the Univer-
sity a sugar barrel full of run
ners from the roots of the plant,
for the purpose of experiment.
to see if they would flourish in
this part Of the country. The
crop, if all goes well, should be
harvested in June.
The oil from the plant is rich
in linyl acetate, a chemical in
great demand as a synthetic per-
fume material. It is used as a
substitute for lavender and Ber-
gamot. ?
Bergamot mint is a new crop
whose value was not known un-
til recently. The leaves and
tops of the plant are distilled
at maturity, and in the oil so
produced the content of lincyl
acetate runs from 60 to 70 per
cent.
Saturday the three scientists
set the runners out in three Sec
tions: one on potato land, one
on corn land, and one on swami
py, shady land near the creek.
The yield of oil should be from
SO to 60 pounds to the acre, and
there is a ready market for it.

May Combine on Paving
Town and University Hope for Bene-
fit from Doing Work Together

The University and the town
are trying to work out an ar
rangement through which they
may combine on their paving
projects and thereby have the
work done at a minimum cost.
1t has already been decided
that the University will run a
paved road through the campus
from the west gate to the east
gate of the campus and on north
ward along the old Raleigh road
to a junction with the main
street, and that the town will
pave from curb to curb the
business block between the
post-office and Andrews store.
If they can decide on the same
type of pavement and let the
contract to the same man at the
same time, it seems certain that
the work can be done under
much more advantageous terms
than if the contracts are let
separately.
The town has chosen con-
crete for it's street surface, but
the University has not yet
made a decision upon the type of
the road to be built through the
campus. There is some differ
ence of opinion about it, one
group in the trustees and fac
ulty preferring concrete and the
other leaning to asphalt. 1t is
because the town is waiting to
find out what the University will
do that the paving of the main
street is being delayed.

ALDERMEN CHANGE
THE SEWER PLANS
Want to Have Disposal Plant
Far Enough Off Not to
be Nuisance
REVISING COST ESTIMATE

Because of the opening up of
the Strowd farm for residential
development, the board of al
dermen have decided to move
the location of the proposed
sewage disposal plant much far
ther out from town than was
first intended.
A site 800 feet south of the
Durham road, down Bolin creek,
was selected by w. C. Olsen, the
Raleigh engineer whom the al
dermen commissioned last year
to make a plan for the intercep-
tor line and the disposal plant.
Now the scheme is to place the
plant 1,100 feet further on, in
what has been known for
years as "Strowd's lowgrounds." !"
This change involves delay in
construction, because it is nee
essary for the engineer to re-
wise his estimate of cost and to
make a new report to the board.
The cost was estimated last year
at $4,000, of which the Uni
versity was to pay half. 1t is
thought that the moving of the
disposal plant may add around
$4,000 to the total figure.
The slope of the ground has
been an important factor in the
sewer problem. 1t is desired to
have a "head,"-that is, a drop
of IA feet from the place
where the sewage enters the
plant to the creek which is to
carry off the effluent. AS the
pipe line proceeds southwark it
becomes more difficult to OBJ
tain so great a drop; but it ap-
pears that, at the more distant
site, a 12-foot drop can be man
aged, and it is said now that
this will suffice.
. What the aldermen are parti-
cularly anxious to do is to place
the disposal plant where it will
be so far from any dwelling
place that it cannot become a
nuisance. If located 800 feet
south of the Durham road it
would probably give no trouble
for a while, but as homes spread
over the former Strowd form it
might prove to be too close in.
