,LlCNlTE COAL
A STATE ASSET
The Great Possibilities of This
New Industry Just
Being Reached.
Coal Mining in the State is
Steadily Increasing
Each Year.

During the last month North Dakota
Ignite coal has come into prominence
with the announcement that the Great
Northern line which is to be constructed
from New Rockford, N. D., to Lewis
ton, Mont, is to be electrified and that
North Dakota Ignite is to be used.
Close on this report the organization of
the Northern Briquetting Company of
Minot was announced and the report of
State Engineer Atkinson just issued
shows that coal mining has increased
ID per cent in the state, all of which in
dicates that Ignite coal is rapidly COM
ing into its own.
Government reports show that North
Dakota contains over five hundred bill
lions of tons of coal, which by far ex-
ceeds that possessed by any state in
the union But Ignite coal has been
knocked so numerically by the coal
barons, the discriminating railroads,
and the public in general that it has
taken quarter of century or more
for it to receive anything like half rec
ognition. But gradually its excellent
qualities have been proven by demon
stration. until finally ten million dollars
are to be spent in electrifying rail
road system dependent upon it fo'
power. Several large power plants ir
this state have been operated with this
coal = :el, and at last the fact ha'
be. ,9'esa .ssed upon one large institu
tt while it is not success un

to say At as soon as the Great Nor
thern people have demonstrated wha
can be done, the Ignite fields of Mort
| Dakota will in1media tely become i:1yalu
able and will be developed at wonder
full rate At Kenmare, Wilton. Heb

state, immense power and lighting

fare was pleasing being of kind to
satisfy those of the guests who had
driven in from the country and had a
long drive back home in the cold. Mr..

past they prepared for the evening.

and it has been demonstrated that
wherever Ignite abounds, unlimited
power can be created This is the one
great resource of the western part of
the state which is sure TO make it ex-
eel, in that it will induce manufactur-
ing, for wherever cheap fuel abounds,
which means cheap power, there cap
ital is sure to be attracted. Power is
the one ruling agent of the world, and
as fuel IS the basis of power, the local
lty which is blessed with an abundance
of cheap coal holds prize which is the
envy of all others.
The rapid increase in the price of
eastern coal and fuel-oii has made it
necessary for western railroads to look
to cheaper source of power, and now
that the energy from ignite can be
pushed many miles along the line from
central stations, it begins to look as if
ignite coal is soon to come to its own.
Immense power stations will be built
at intervals along the new line. These
will c2ll for an army of stokers, miners.
electricians and other employees, all OF
which will mean a great deal toward
the development of one Of the greatest
resources of wealth which could pos
sibly bless state.
This may have tendency to develop
another source of industry which lies
unutilized in this state, and that is the
excellent manufacturing clays of NORTH
Dakota. No finer can be found in the
United States and the supply is mex.
haustible.
The possibilities of development ir
the western portion of North Dakota
cannot be estimated. At this date
they are unappreciated and the time is
soon coming when thu panorama OF
barren prairies and hills in western
North Dakota will be transformed into
scenes equal to those Of the manufac.
turing centers of the east.

Perhaps, I thought, the poor fellow
had the outfit before he had attain
ed mans estate and now was wearing
the suit for economy's sake.
But no, this was mere man, showing
an advance of styles. Nevertheless,
his coat and vest were several sizes
too small and his hands dangled sew
eral inches below his cuffs, he seemed
not to know what to do with them.
His tight trousers were. more than
highWater, and one would imagine
that he ate his meals, three times a
day, from a shelf.
And his feet, last but not least. l
could not distinguish whether those
tan things he wore were bedroom slip

green n leave the land bare. The
Sudanese are waging a vigorous cam-
paign against them, and their zeal Is
Whetted by the fact that ~locusts con
stitute for them a very palatable dish.
These locusts are generally caught by
the Cypress system, which consists
in digging trenches and erecting on
their farther side the screens against
which they dash and kill themselves
eventually falling into the trenches.
It is not thought that the invasion
will reach Egypt. The last time his
country was visited by locusts was in
1904, when no fewer than 1000, O0O, 900
egg masses were destroyed. The work
was carried out by over 240, 900 men
and cost the government close to $780,
600, which was IN all conscience a
cheap radiance of the plague, seeing,
that it might quite easily have ruin

BULLET WITH WINGS.
Germans Invent a Special ProjectiIe
to Repel piriqihIes.

Germans Invent a Special Projectile
to RepeI DirigibIes.
Scientific American. Tests have been
made in Germany with a special pro-
jectile intended to repel dirigibles and
designed not only to pierce a gas
envelope, but also to set fire to the
gas. This projectile, fired from an old
model CT German rifle, is provided
with little wings that open in flight
under the influence of a spring. T.
An ordinary bullet leaves such a
small hole in an envelope that the gas
escapes through it but slowly. The
wings on the improved bullet tear a
hole of appreciate size in the fabric.
What is more, they retard the bullet
sufficiently to cause a friction device
to ignite illuminate contained in the
bullet. 1t is said that experiments
conducted at Neumannswa1d gave en-
c~ouraging results.
