LITTLE MOUNTAIN STATE is IN

LOW MANUFACTURING RANK
Holds Twenty-ninth Place in Amount
OF Manufacture But in Values Occu-
pies Higher PIace-Has Best Coal
at the Lowest Price.


Charleston.-West Virginia held sec
ond rank among the great coal produc-
Ing states in 1910. being exceeded in
output by Pennsylvania only. The
United States geological survey has
made public report by Edwin w.
Parker, coal statistician, giving the
total production of West Virginia in
1910 as 61,671 .019 short tons.
How II Happened.
West Virginia, says Mr.. Parker may
now be considered firmly established
in second place among the coal pro-
ducing states. though its big lead over
Illinois in 1910 was due to abnormal
conditions which may not be repeat
ed for several years. The most infiu-
entail feature of the coal mining in.
dustry in 1910 was the strike in states
OF the middle west, which put West
Virginia's rival, Illinois, at a decided
disadvantage. most of the larger
mines of the latter state being COM
pletely shut down while West Virginia
got the benefit.
In spite of the fact, however. that
the output of West Virginia exceeded
that OF Illinois by 15,772,173 tons, and
OF the further fact that West Virginia's
gain in value was considerably more
In proportion than the gain in tonnage.
the total value of the West Virginia
product exceeded that of Illinois by
only s4.261,434
Needs More Industries.
West Virginia has an advantage in
the superior quality of coal, but this is
largely discounted by the lack of local
markets and the necessity, under pres.
ent conditions at least, of shipping the
product to distant points. Although
bountifully supplied by nature with
some OF the highest quality of btu
minous coal and now ranking second
among the coal producing states (pro-
ducing more coal than any country
outside of the United States EXCEPT
Great Britain and Germany. West
Virginia ranks twenty-ninth in the
value OF it's manufactures. Probably
the larger part of the West Virginia
coal consumed within the state is that
burned in the locomotives hauling IL
away. Moreover. the high quality coal
OF West Virginia is the lowest priced
coal in the United States. If the
small mines are left out of considera-
ton there were only three counties in
the state in which the average price
in 1910 exceeded 81 per ton, and the
aggregate output OF these three coun-
ties was only a little over 1000. 900
tons-less than 2 per cent of the to-
tai production. The general average
for the state was 80 cents. In 1909 it
was SO cents.

Public School Fire Prevention.

Total fire losses i'm the state
of West Virginia during the month OF
August amounted to only $52.212, ac-
cording to the bulletin which has been
Issued from the office OF the state fire
marshal. That is an unusually low
amount. and the insurance covering
the property is little less than $780,
600, the largest loss being that sus-
tanned in Parkersburg by the West
Virginia association at the barns on
which there was $4,000. The loss
sustained by the Deer Creek Co.
store. in Pocahontas county, was about
$1,000.
The fire marshal urges that the
schools give greater attention to in
structing the youth in the dangers OF
and the things that will prevent fires.

takes occasion to remark on the sub
ject.
Fire Prevention.

ers was the necessity of giving more
