One of the notable results of the
elaborate geological survey recently
undertaken by the state of Illinois is

duction has about doubled in the last
seven years, and increased more than
fiye-fold since 1881

Van Horn tells us. the mines of Illinois
will at the end of that period be pro
ducing as much bituminOus coal as is
now dug from all the mines of the
United States.
A gratifying feature of Mr. Van
Horns report is the implied assurance
that Illinois can supply coal at this rate
indefinitely The manufacturing indus
tries of Illinois. Missouri and the cen
trail west will have need for every ton
of it.
The new geological survey of Illinois
has its headquarters at the State uni

to their industrial development.
