HAVE REAL VALUE majmari Til at tins WppH uiaunea x nar ine weea Contains Larg6 Percent age of Potash. Idaho's sagebrush plains, the brush on which has heretofore been consid .«red worthless except for fuel, may have a value unbelievable, for it has [been discovered the brush contains sol ■Wible potash which may-place the weed on a commercial basis. Experiments are being conducted across the bound - ary line In Nevada and' Utah which may put an entirely different appear ance on the humble sagebrush. Ashes of sagebrush, according to chemical Investigation, contain potash soluble in water. The quantity varies in different localities, but around southern Utah and Nevada, there is un average of 30 per cent. Further more, the to-called "rabbit brush" con tains even a higher percentage of pot ash than the sagebrush. Advertises for Ashes. Senator M. L. Lee of Pioche, Nev.. has udvertised in the vicinity of Pioche that he will buy. during the next three months, ashes of sagebrush In carload lots. The ashes will probably contain from IB to 30 per cent of soluble pot ash. The Pioche banker has contruct ed to ship the ashes to the Virginia Carolina Chemical company of Rich Ifmond, Va., where they will he purified so as to make pure potash. Arrange monts have been made for a chemist in Pioche to analyze tile ashes purchased, and payment w ill he made according to the following schedule: ,A*h containing 31 per cent water ^voluble potash or more, $95 per ton; Kish containing 25 per cent or more, $80 per ton; ash containing 20 to 25 per cent, $62.50 per ton; ash containing 15 to £0 per cent. $45 per Ion. Senator l,ee lavs Issued the following instructions concerning the preparation of the sagebrush ashes for shipment: It appears that the ieuves and small er branches contain more potash than the trunk, therefore care should be taken to preserve, so far as possible, Ute leaves and small branches. The brush must be well burned, the ashes ore taken from the fire t soon they contain much carbon or smaii particles of charcoal which con É^.ain potash not soluble. Must Exercise Care. If the ashes or coals are permitted to remain in the fire or near the in tense heat generated by sagebrush un til they cool gradually, the coals and carbon will all go to ashes. However, In burning on a large scale it may be found advisable to screen the ashes and reburn the charcoal. The best results will be obtained by burning in the open, without much draft. Draft lias a tendency to carry away the lighter particles containing potash. Remember that the potash is water soluble, and burning on the damp ground will lose much of the potash. My best informa •tion is that 20 tons will constitute a carload. Analysis of the ash should be made at the beginning of the burning, in order to determine tile average per çent of potash you may expect, and an other consisting of a sample from each sack when the ash is ready for ship ment. A certificate of the general av erage v. 1'1 then be attached. If Once tried always used* HIAWATHA COAL, phone 223. Western S. & <3. Co. tf Some Speed!
