DEVELOP Ignite
\. D. COAL

Grand Forks, n. D., oct. 25.-Eastern
capital is watching with keen interest
the results that are being attained in
North Dakota's first commercinal bri
quoting plant at Minot and which win
mark the opening Of the states vast
coal fields, if successful.
The first commercial plant, patterned
after that established by Dean T.. 3.
Babcock of the School of Mines, who
conducted experiments for several Years
with q great deal Of success, Is already
turning out the finished product, though
not on a commercial basis as yet.
Preliminary tests Of the brl1uetted fuel
have proved very satisfactory. The lig
note coal, sunsuiteu to shipment for long
distances in it's original form because
of high disinteSration, shows unusually
good qualities. The process of briquetting
is such that the coal is firmly bound
and mad suitable for shipment. The
question of shipping Ignite has been the
greatest obstacle in the way Of its de-
velopment. With that abolished North
Dakota coal land owners are confident
that a big field will be opened to their
product.

SAFETY AT SEA.

Secretary of Commerce Redfield's
committee on hulls and bulkheads, to
prepare recommendations for the use
Of the American delegation to the in
ternational conference on Safety at
Sea, to be held in London, November
II, has made its report.
The committee emphasizes the fact
that definite information concerning
many of the important questions could
only be obtained through careful and
exhaustive research by a body of ex
perts having at their command ample
resources to prosecute their investiga-
lions to a satisfactory conclusion.
Such body Of experts under the juris-
diotion of the department of commerce
was recommended by the committee,
1t being pointed out that 1t would as
sist In the execution Of rules already
established, would facilitate and en-.
courage improvements in ship con-
struction, and tend to increase the
safety of passengers and crew.

has been extended TO the northern
states as well, and similarly satisfac-
tory results are hoped for throughout
the country. It is to stimulate a more
widespread interest in the proposition
that the present project Of having the
winning girls visit the capital at one
time was decided upon. Besides. it
was considered that if the corn club
boys were given these yearly visits
to Washington, something was due to
the canning club girls. The organiza-
lions are closely allied and work along
together in the same districts, often
being administered by the same work
ers. The boys visits to Washington
have aroused much general interest;
they have received diplomas from the
secretary of agriculture, have shaken
hands with the president, and have
been shown the sights. The girls are
expected to receive similar attentions
during their stay in the capital.
From the girls standpoint the main
interest in the visit will be the liberal
education they will receive from the
experience, but from the broader
standpoint the increased interest
throughout the states will more than
compensate for the outlay made.
While this is the first visit of the
girls in body to Washington, one
girl made the trip last year when the
corn club boys were sent She was
the winner in a canning club contest
in an Arkansas county and the county
presented her with the trip, which she
undertook with TIE departments Off

ELECTRICAL APPARATUS AND
SUPPLIES.

Statistics of the electrical machin-
cry, apparatus and supplies industry
in the United States for 1909 are pre-
sented in detail in a bulletin soon to
be issued by Director Harris of the
bureau Of the census, department of
commerce. 1t was prepared under the
supervision of w. M. Stewart, chief
statistician for manufactures.
This industry includes the manufac-
ture Of the machines and appliances
used in the generation, transmission
and utilization of electric energy, to-
gether with most of the parts, acces-
series and supplies for them. 1t does
not include, however, the production
of poles, whether of wood, iron or
steel; nor does it include the manu-
facture Of glass and porcelain ware
made expressly for electrical purposes,
that Of bare iron and copper wire, or
any of the group of electrochemical
and electrometallurgic products
The total number of establishments
in the United States in 1909 engaged
in the manufacture of electrical ma
chinery, apparatus and supplies was
1,0O9. The total number of persons
engaged in the industry was $500,
of whom 102,950 were wage earners.
The total capital employed was $751;
S44,432, and the total value of prod
ucts was 1921, 308, 1853.
The industry in 1909 was largely
centralized in the six states of New
York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Mas
sachusetts, Illinois and Ohio. These
states together reported S3.9 per cent.
of the total average number of wage
earners, 82.6 per cent. Of the total
value Of products, and S3.1 per cent. Of
the total value added by manufac-
ture.

SEEKS GENUINE eREENHEART.

Clayton D. Nell of the U. S. forest
service sailed the other day from New
York for British Guiana to inspect
greenheart timber to be used in the
construction of docks and other ma
rine works for the Panama canal. He
goes at the request OF the isthmian
canal commission, il order that the
engineers may be sure that they are
getting genuine greenheart timber, for
which number of inferior substi-
tutes are offered.
Genuine greenheart has the reputa-
ton of being the most resistant wood
to the attack of marine borers and to
decay. Borers are especially bad in
tropical waters. The wood is, in addi-
ton, hard, heavy and durable, and not
subject to damage from impact and
wear. Indisputable records show that
the best grades of this wood surpass
iron and steel as to lasting qualities
in contact with salt water. 1t has
been known and used since 1859. Logs
have remained intact under water for
one hundred years, and the only limit

and fastenings, which usually can be
renewed without much trouble. Green
heart in Liverpool lock gates, built in
1856, removed to allow deepening
and widening Of the skip channel in
1894, was used over again when the
gates were reconstructed. The sills
and tenders of the lock gates at Pan
anna will be made of greeheart, and
much of the docks will be constructed
of the same material.

NON -CAPSIzAbLE A|RCRAF1

Paris, Feb. 26.-An invention which
has been undergoing thorough tests
here during the last four months by
the aviation corps of'the French army,
is creating good deal of interest, be-
cause within the past few days it is
reported that the commission has re-
ported favorable on the invention,
which automatically gives stability to
aeroplanes. The apparatus is the in
vention of NJ. Moreau, said to be a
book agent.
Roughly speaking, it consists of a
pendulum which acts as balance,
and which, suspended beneath the
drivers seat automatically steadies
and ballast the aeroplane when caught
by violent gusts of wind.
NJ. Moreau has made fight with
a passenger for thirtyrfive minutes in
a strong wind without touching the
controlling levers except for rising or
descending The inventor claims that
it is practically impossible for an
aeroplane fitted with this device to
capsize.
