STATE TEST FOR
FUEL AND CLAYS
A New Department Estab-
lished at University at
Austin.

Austin, Tex, June 21-The work of
the bureau Of economic geology, at the
state university. at Austin, has in
creased so much during The past year,
so many inquiries Of practical char
acter have been addressed 10 Il, not
only from within the stnte bun from
many sources outside OF 1t, that the
board of regents has authorized the
establishment and equipment OF a spe-
cial laboratory for the investigation of
fuels and clays OF the state II will
be distinct from the present chemical
laboratory and will be under the care
of DR.. William B. Phillips, director of
the bureau of economic geology.
The new laboratory Will be for the pur-
pose Of Investigating the fuels and
Clays of the state from practical stand
pOinC, to determine the gas producing
power of the different Goals, lignites,
oil and woods, to analyZe the gases
and ascertain the heating and illu.nin
ating qualities and the byproducts that
may be recovered firm them in the pro-
cess of distillatiOn. 1t is proposed 70
put in small briquetting plant for
the purpose of studying the adapta-
bility Of Goals and lignites TO the
manufacture Of brique-teS and TO afford
to the miners Of Ignite an opportunity
Of having their product tested in
practical manner.
1t is likely that the development OF
the fuel resources Of the state viii be
along lines of utilizing the Goals and
ugrites for the production Of gas and
to use this gas in gas engines This
p nCiple is already in practical oper-
alton at some power plants in the state.
The Investigation Of the qualities OF
the different high grade clays in the

ALL FAITHFUL WILL

Feast of John the Baptist
Marked by Long Stand

The faithful in Mexico will battle Fri

son The sanitary minority will bathe
because they feel sOiled, while the I'M
washed majority will lave themselves
because it is their religious duty.
For those reasons Mexico has little

southern republic, everybody takes a
bath al least once = year, according TO
the long. established custom. Here a
man may never battle and still retain
perfectly unsoiled conscience But even
