THE BEST COAL.
Government Makes Tests for BENEFIT
of Public.

Each summer the United States
geological survey issues small pam
phlet giving analyses made by the
bureau of mines of the coal samples
that the survey has collected during
the wear. These analyses are MADE
for the purpose of obtaining data up
on which to classify and value the
public lands, and for general lnforma-
ton regarding the various coal neias
of the United States.
The latest pamphlet of this series
of the geological survey, Bulletin bal
X, gives the analyses of l35 samples
collected by uniform methods IN
Alabama, Colorado, Illinois. Kentucky
Montana, New Mexico, Oregon, Penn
sylvania, Utah, Virginia West Vlr-
ginia and wyoming. Most OF the
samples were obtained in working
mines and therefore represent the ac-
tual coal that is mined AMI reaches
the market. but few We're collected
from surface exposures or oil pros
poets, and the analyses OF these sam
pies have only doubtful value and
should be used only as indicating the
quality of the coal. They should NOT
be accepted as final until they have
been checked by the analysis OF fresh
material. The heating value IS given
with almost all the analyses, - that
it is easy to determine which 81 two
ccals Is the better. The bulletin also
gives brief description Of the SAM
rles, including a section of the coal AZ
the point sampled, and an outline OF
the different classes of Goals recog-
nized by the geological survey.
A copy of Bulletin SILK may be
obtained free of charge on application

KANSAS NOW HAS
FLOWING SALT WELL
RRINEY WATER SCOUTING FROM
DEPTH OF MORE THAN
600 FEET.

A dispatch from Hutchinson, Kan,
says South Hutchinson's artesian salt
well is still flowing. This flowing we'll
resulted from the recent subterranean
depression near the Morton salt works
and caused the undermining of part
of the old plant.
No further settling has occurred,
and the biologists and engineers VINO
have been working on the case say
the trouble Is over 50 far as sinking
of the ground is concerned But the
well keeps on flowing. The geologlsts
who have been investigating say this
Is due to the pressure on one of the
numerous salt pools In the salt bed
below.
Method Of Mining Salt.
Hutchinsons salt is obtained by
boring a hole down into the salt bed
pumping water down, and then pump
ing the brine out which Is then eVap-
GRATED by vacuum process in the mod
ern salt plants. There are a large
number of wells required to get the
necessary amount of brine.
At the east side plant of the carey
Salt company. for instance, 10 wells
are in operation. A larger number are
used at the big Morton Salt company
works across the river. AS the salt
brine is pumped off there gradually
forms at the bottom of each well a
cavity, supposed to be pear-shaped.
When this cavity gets of certain
size it Is no longer economical to use
that well, and another well is drilled
The result is a large number Of pear
shaped cavities in the salt bed, 6ot
or 500 feet below the surface.
Theory Of Biologists.
1t is the theory Of biologists thai
one of these cavities is being filled
with sand, shale or rock from above
due to downward movement prob
ably caused by the recent flood in thu
river washing out quicksand de-
post. This caused settlement OF
depression which undermined part C.
the old salt plant adjoining the biz
Morton works.
This settlement into the under
ground salt cavity made necessary
displacement of the water with which
that cavity was filed and is forcn!

tesian flowing well.

enough life boats for every one on
board? That seems silly question
but l PROFOUND it because the ship
ping interests are endeavoring to per-
suade a committe of the house that
ocean-going liners Should not be com
PEELED to provide life boats for all.
And the amazing thing is that some
of the members are actually listening
to them.
This legislation was suggested by
the Titantic disaster. which horrifi-
ed the world. 1t was forced through
the senate by LaFollette, of Wiscon-
sin after a notable fight and it has
been hanging fire in tie house for
months.
The bill also provides that there
shall be sufficient sailors to properly
man the life boats. and the ship
ping interests are fighting that.
1t also provides that the sailors
must be able to understand the or
ders of their officers without the aid
of an interpreter.
The crews of many of these big
liners include representatives of al
most every nationality. They have
TO common language and in an en-
ergency the ships officers must con-
vey their instructions through inter-
prefers. OF course, serious confu-
sion and delay result, thus materially
increasing the danger of disaster.
The LaFollette bill remedies this and
the shipping interests protest they
are about to be ruined.
l confess that to tie mind of a
land-lubber there seems to he only
one side to the proposition. Human
life is of more ,aiLe than the divi-
dends of the shipping interests so
shall vote for tie LaFollette sea
mems bill.

them. Then she had her own new

and Tom Barrett, and her lovely
niece, Elida, had been away at school

Ned sprouting a mustache and sport
