DISTURBANCE IN !PocAH ON
TAs counTY.ls FOREST
FIRE.

MORGANTOWN, Jan. S.-Dr |. c.
White, when asked about the reported
volcanic. activity in Pocahontas coun.
ty. smiled. 1T Is probably nothing
but a peaty soil on fire. he said. THE
weather has been exceptionally dry
and the soil has dried out completely.
It is a black humus, very rich In car
bon. When forest fires get started
they fire this soil and It burns for days
at q time. Frequently heavy rains
are insufficient to put out the fires in
the soil, and the forests again blaze
up after rain has fallen for many days.
There is no evidence that there
was ever any volcanic activity in this
State. In old Virginia there are traces
Of such activity in some places, but
these have become extinct ages ago.
It may be that the fire in Pocahontas
county has some shale TO help feed i.
1t need cause no alarm concerning
earthquakes or other phenomena con.
nected with volcanic activity"
