ted so far this year vary only
;itly from the number of such ap-
cations received and accepted at

If there is any difference in theI
aber of applications received this

received last year, it will in all1
bability tend towards a slight #e-

Shoals, a panorama of which is shown.
Leroy, Ill., July 25.-A discovery

Muscle Shoals useless to Henry Ford.
Ford is reported to boe' negotiating
for an entirely new process of extract-
ing nitrogen from the air, developed
by Francis H. Snyder of Leroy, a
student in Syracuse university.
Snyder's process for synthesizing
nitrogen ,compounds creates liquid air
by distiIIaltion, btaining nitrogen, am-
monia and itric acid, without the
use of catalyetk gers to form the-
compounds.
There have been non-catalytic pro-
cesses in the use, but they have been
too cott to be of commercial value.,
The Snyder proge is but trifling in
cost, it is declared.
