distant future that their occupation

affording no opportunity to increase
their income above their regular
wages. Some years ago two conduct
ors were arrested for knocking down
fares. Unfortunately having a turn
toward bookkeeping they had kept
daily records of the exact amount of.
their profits over and above their!
wages. These records which were cap
tured revealed the fact that the aver
age number of fares knocked down
daily was over eighty or above $4i
worth for each man. Ever since then
the street car companies have been
striving to make such work impossible.
First came the pay-as-you-enter car
on which the conductor handled the
money, and later the car in which
the fare was deposited In box by the
passenger. Neither Of these methods
proved perfect, however and conduct
ors, unless they were known to be
honest, were still regarded as male
factories OF great wealth. Now how
ever, there has arrived an apparatus
which even makes change, so that the
conductor does not handle money at
all. In appearance this device looks
something like miniature cash regis

correct change obtained by pressing

Dean Babcock's study of Ignite coal
began with the beginning Of the state,
and has continued down to the pres

resolution asking information con-
corning the Ignite coal of the state,
and Prof. Babcock was called upon to
prepare the report which was enbod-

first commissioners Of agriculture and
labor. Hon. RI. q. Helgesen. From that

have allowed him, to the study Of the
mineral resources of the state, partic-

years the United States government
has been cooperating with him in his
Investigations and has helped make
possible the compact but efficient ex-

The establishment of the Hebron sub
station by the state legislature last
year gave him a plant large enough to
test the results Of his experiments on

The paper was well planned, free
from technicalities. and full OF inter-
esting details. Dean Babcock was in
his happiest mood and often stopped
to throw in comments, explanations
and humorous thrusts that came to
him on the spur of the moment. Space
permits the giving of only the barest
outline of the paper, only the merest
mention of the more important points
which he developed and brought out
(QuotAtion marks indicate verbatim
portion Of the address,.
Great Coal State.
while no accurate figures can be
given, still 1t is estimated that North
Dakota has coal area of $4,000 square
miles capable Of producing 5Oo,OOo.0OO
600 tons valued at 50 per tons, or
$1,000. 000,O00,O00) enough to supply
every family in the United States with
ten tons per year for over 100 years
or for the present population OF North
Dakota for between 5000 and 1000
years"
Drawbacks.
However, nundreos or thousands of
dollars are sent. out Of the state an
nually to buy coal because a product
better suited to our stoves, furnaces,
etc, can be obtained at prices that, all
things considered, make 1t more desir-
able The great problem then is to
discover the drawbacks to the use Of
Ignite and how to overcome them"
Ignite contains from 80 to 40 per-
cent moisture. On drying it cracks,
Stacks. and ultimately becomes a fine,
practically useless powder Undried
the shipper must pay freight on too
much water, and the purchaser must
receive too much water which requires
part Of the fuel value Of the coal to
dry in burning. Again Ignite contains
two classes of fuel, a very light gas
and heavier substance like powdered
coke or charcoal To kindle the latter
a good deal OF heat Is required just as
In kindling q hard coal fire. AS gem
eral thing when Ignite is thrown ON
the fire the light gases distill at once
and a large part of them are lost up
the flue. The small per cent that do
burn fash above the coal and fail to
produce enough heat to thoroughly anu
rapidly ignite the coke-Iike substance
which the drying and the loss Of gases
have reduced to a powder which clogs
the draft. Hence the problem is to get
rid OF the moisture and if possible OBJ
tain q more uniform fuel.

Excellent Briquettes.

Excellent Briquettes,
The work at these different stages
have called for a great deal of study
and planning. Plants have had TO be
designed and built and data carefully
collected at each step and thoroughly
studied to determine how to proceed
AS result Of this work the process
as followed at the station today is to
dry the Ignite, drive off the gas which
can be used for heating, lighting, and
power, and briquette the coke left
after driving off tine gas. These bril-
QUOTES furnish fuel that burns as
steadily as anthracite and which will
withstand weathering and handling.
From figures given the following data
was deduced:
Three tons of mine run Ignite would
yield briquettes whose fuel value would
be equal to about one ton Of best mot
ordinary anthracite. and gas with the
heating and lighting equivalent of
about $4,000 cubic feet Of commercial
gas meeting the requirement of our
city ordinances. In addition there are
the various by products from the cox
ing process, which will be valuable. in
Guiding ammonium sulphite for fer
tilizer. The gas can be used for man
ufacturing purposes or transformed
into electricity distributed for power
purposes.
The new idea involved in this is the
coking of the Ignite. All the previous
attempts to briquette Ignite have so
far failed to give a satisfactory bril-
quette because they contained the two
forms of fuel and would not form bril-
quotes that would stand weathering
and handling.
In few weeks bulletin will be
issued outlining the work done and
giving detailed results.

EXCHANGE PASSENGERS
Better Service Inaugurated BY Wa
bash With c. 3. e. x. c. at
Bloomfield.

A concession wanted by large
amount of the travelling public
that use the Wabash out of Ottumwa
has been granted by that road in a
recent arrangement made by it with
the G. B. & K. c.. at Bloomfield juno
ton. BY the arrangement entered in
to between the two roads, two trains
daily over each road will meet and
exchange passengers at the junction in
Bloomfield The service will be thus
benefited on each road and the ex-
change of business will effect the time
of the trains but little. A morning
train north on the Wabash will wait
the arrival Of the westbound train on
the K c.. line, while in the afternoon
a K c. line train will await the ar
rival of the Wabash out Of Ottumwa at
8 D. m. The K. G. train meeting the
afternoon Wabash will be an east
bound train. The exchange fthe
passengers will not take place at the
station of either road, but at the juno.
ton point.
