WYOMING POTASH WILL
NOT HURTTHE MARKET
.(portal Find of Immrnw Dpolt
In luriu- IUm k fej of BmIn Known
of I'rrvlounly.
NtblMlta prorturorn or potanh who
bceanui oaeWhM alarmed or who t
prtMad interest at leant, upon read
inn ne-AH dlspatrhea the flrat of the
wMk remirdlnK the finding of depot
Hh of potaah In Wyomlnp? valued at
MlllMI of dollar-, Imcmhc normal
RKaln when they learned that the d
potiU meant were those In the well
known rnnfte of Ieurlte hills In Wy
oming. The new.spaircrs of Monday carried
the following dispatch regarding the
Wyoming potash finds:
Cheyenne, Wyo., July 22.
The United .States and the bnl
ance of the world will soon be
Independent of Germany for pot
ash supplies If the new depoaitfl
of that valuable fertiliser Ingre
dient discovered In the Laucite
hill, north of Rock Springs,
Wyoming, half way come up to
predictions made for them by ex
perts. This Leuclto rock appears
In extensive deposits and over a
wide area and contains, accord
ing to tests made, between 10
and 54 per cent pure potash. Al
ready plans are under considera
tion for the erection at Green
Klver of a refinery to coat be
tween 12,500,000 and 13,000,-
000.
"The German government hn
been aware of these potash de
posits for years and before the
world's war started, a large
corps of experts was sent to the
Leuclte hills section to make an
investigation and secure title to
the lands. These experts were re
called to Germany when the war
started."
The deposits of nntflnh In tUA
Lcucite rocks have been known to
geologists and scientists for several
years ind the recent great demand
for potash has caused them to turn
Inquisitive and longing eyes iowards
the billions of dollars worth of pot
ash locked In the rocks and. although
nnndfeda of thousands of dollars
have been spent In experimenting
dnrlB! past years, so far no feasible
Or profitable plan has been evolved
for taking the potash out of the rock
and making It soluble and usable.
Similar deposits of potash, locked
in minerals, are known to exist in the
form Of mountains in the Allegheny
mouhWin ranges in the east, hut be
cause of the fact that although tho
rock may be crushed the potash still
remains Insolublethese deposits are
useless ror all practicable purposes.
Some ; I me ago a carload of Ixuclte
rock was shipped from the Wyoming
tlelds to the Atlantic coast for the
purpose of experimenting on the rock
In an effort to tlnd a way to release
the potash. The carload of rock be
came sidetracked in an Ohio city and
a keen eyed railway freight clerk mln
tOOfc the word "Leuclte" for "Lyd
dite," the latter being one of thW
strongest and most powerful explos
ives manufactured. A day and night
guard was immediately placed around
the car ami mialned on duty there
for several weeks, until the people
to whom the car had been consigned
'.vere able o irace It down und r peed
It on its way. Needless to sav. they
were much pleased with the attention
given their carload of rock hy the au
thorities during its stay in the Ohio
city.
In the meantime the pushing of
production of existing potash planta
in western Nebraska continues, the
pushing of completion of plants i both
huge and little) keeps on at a rapid
rate and every day or two witnesses
the announcement of a new plant to
be erected to produce potash from
lakes and beds which h; ve not been
touched before. The governmn: ia
understood to have a ruling or ict .;.!-
ly fixing the price at which polish
j fertilizer shall be sold by th- fortil
Jizer manufacturer $6.00 per potash
illicit. The feitilizer munuf acurer
: pay- the potash producer as small a
portion as he can of the $6.00, now
averaging from $4.50 to $n.oo per
unit this leaves the fertilizer manu
taetnrer a fair margin of profit.

Tree Lore. ""-"'
The reason most trees lean toward
the northwest, says aa old tree trim
mer, Is because In the summer our pre
vailing winds are from the southeast;
the ground then Is soft und the trees
feafj-f in full leaf, the wind tilts them
toward the northwest. In the winter
the northern winds do not have thla
efTect on the trees because they are
denuded of leuves and the ground la
froren or hard.
