NEW FUEL SUPPLY
TO AID THE WEST
Government Bureau Of Mines Secures
rowerfuI Machine 70 Make Brie- Z
auets Of Ignite.

Washington, d. c., July Tin brio
DUETS Of Ignite the government bu-
reau OF mines believes it has develop
ed a fuel supply that will be Of i'm
mense value to the west where high
grade coal can be obtained only at
high cost A powerful machine
brought from Germany has solved the
dimculty which heretofore has limited
the manufacture Of bricquets, the cost
OF pitch necessary to hold the coal
dust together.
Ignite Is poor form Of brown
colcred coal found In great abundance
in North and South Dakota, Montana,
Texas and other western states. Its
tendency to slack soon after being
mined makes 1t troublesome to trans
port and does not burn readily on &C
count of the presence OF being 80 and
40 per cent Of moisture. The bureau
of mines conducted experiments at
Williston, N. D., and developed furD.
ace that would burn Ignite satisfac-
torily. Now that the experiments
have gone far enough to Indicate that
bricquets can be made successfully at
low cost, the bar to transportation Of
Ignite seems have been removed,
Charles L. Wright Of the bureau esti-
mates the cost OF br1cquets loaded at
the mines at $2.51 a tone in Texas;
1858 in North Dakota and 1924 In
California.

hard to dispose Of, Tie general quality
of the offerings Is plain and low
prices rule. Mule quotations.:
