From 1185 Big Appropriation Voted . for Western Men Who Must De pend on By-Porducts. Washington, June 13. (WASHING TON BUREAU OF THE JOURNAL.) Operations of the government kelp plant at Summerland, . Cal., are to be con-. tmued for another yeaV, to still, further work out the possibilities of production of potash, charcoal .and iodine in such a way as to,make kelp reduction com mercially profitable. The plant ''was on of the war time experiments, when the need ' for new sources of potash became acute, -follow ing the; ;cutting-ff-of supplies from Germany; The department . of agricul ture experts who -are in charge of op erations agree that for . the production of potash alone the work cannot be mad a success in peace times. They say, however, that as by-products they can secure a high-temperature charcoal selling for $100 a ton, and also a valu able quality of Iodine. As to potash, the pre-war price was about $40 a ton. The potash made at the California plant hag been sold under war conditions for about ,450 a ton. It is estimated that potash from the mines of Alsaceand 'Saxony will soon be on the market at from $70 to $80, and that aside from deposits in this country. which ar of ' limited extent, potash may bj produced by anew process from cement dust and blast? furnace dust, and this promises, to become a competing industry as against the imported artl cle. - ' ' KELP l?OT PROFITABLE Standing alone it Is clear that sea weed cannot produce potash in a profit able way. but it may yet add materially to the supply because it will be a pay ing Investment to establish kelp plants producing potash along with high grade charcoal, iodine and other by-products. The agricultural appropriation bill car ries $127,000 this year to continue the experiments along these tines, - and the showing may ultimately temp capital into kelp plant investments at many points' on the Pacific coast where this kind of sea weed can be harvested. In large quantities. Before the war the United States Im ported 250,000 tons of potash yearly, and practically all of It came from Ger many. That country supplied the world, and one of the early German boasts was that other countries would . be starved out because they lacked pot ash. It was in these circumstances that this country turned to the develop ment of possible sources of supply at home. ALKALI LAKES SOURCE .Kelp was one source.

The kelp plants of California and the west ern lakes together produces oniy a small part of the quantity needed. That was why potash went to $450 a ton. Now congress wants to avoid going back to Germany for potash. It is on of the subjects, along . with dyestuns, which the ways and means committee ia starting to explore. An Important feature ' will be to develop the facts as to securing, a large supply from ce ment and furnace dust-- Th -Bethle- Prisoners Escape In Wholesale Lot From Leavenworth Leavenworth, Kan.. Jun H. If the present rate of escapes from the United States disciplinary barracks at Fort Leavenworth continues, within a month or two there will be only a few guests remaining at the barracks. Since o'clock Wednesday morning II men have escaped and all efforta to apprehend there have been unsuccessful. Four men left th prison yesterday, and they took with them an automobile be longing to an officer detailed to the barracks, which' had been left standing just outsld of th main gates.

S600 rounds of rifle hem Steel company is reported to, be and pistol ammunition were seised late putting in a large plant, and -smaller plants are already In operation else where. . Cement" plants and blast furnaces have annoyed -communities by discharg ing poisonous fumes in the air. ana to prevent this, the fumes have been re duced to dust. Then it was discovered that the dust was soluble and by a slm pleprocess the potash could be recov ered. That, along with the kelp plant. takes Its place as one of the new found commercial :. possibilities growinr out of the war. ; Munitions on Ship En Route to Mexico Seized hy Federals yesterday aboard the steamer Korrigan III by United States customs inspectors.

He said the figures were furnished htm by the bureau of markets of the depart' men of agriculture. Fess said these figures revealed a "startling" condition, adding: "My observation is that meat and fowls are higher than ever before. There ought to be soma way to get at this situation. If the departments of the government do not take action, this congress ought to enact persuasive legislation to remedy th condition." Portland May Win T. P.
