COAL FOR NON-PRE-
FERRED PLANTS

+; Industrial plants on the non
preferred list of the Fuel Ad-
ministration may obtain sreen-
ings in regular equipment and
wagon mine coal" in box cars,
for Immediate use if they desire
to store their present supply,
John G. O'Kelley, fuel admins
traitor for Louisiana, announced
Tuesday. There is a surplus of
both grades and by ordering now,
many consumers may avert a
shutdown this winter when the
railroads become congested. The
wagon mine coar' comes from
along the Illinois Central which
load their coal from wagons.
This should be especially desir-
able for saw mills because the
box cars can be loaded back
north with lumber. Mr.. O'Kel-
ley said the lifting of this ban
on such coal shipments applied
to those plants affected by cur
tailment orders.

TAP CLOUDS TO BRING RAIN
australian Has an Idea That He Can
induce Moisture Whenever 1t
Is Desired.

In Australia experiments are be-
ing carried out with an electrical
plant for the purpose OF tapping the
clouds and forcing rain. The expert.
ments are said to be effective. Care
full research showed the inventor.
Mr.. BalsiIlie, that in fine weather
there was charge Of positive cleo
trlclty in the higher regions of the
air, and that when it rained negative
electricity predominated.
He was studying the effects of
mountains on rainfall, and came to
the conclusion that hills acted as
conductors of the negative electrical
energy with which the earth's sur
face Is charged. He argued that all
that was necessary, therefore, to give
hat plains the same advantages as
regards rainfall as hilly country was
the free passage of the negative cleo
trlclty to the higher regions of the
air.
His rainmaking plant now con-
slsts OF set of two OF three kites,
which are let up on galvanized flex-
lble wire to an altitude of between
1000 and 5000 feet. The negative
current is taken from the earth by
means of terminal, which is well
grounded. Of course, the first es-
sential in the business is wind. I'M
his tests at Bookaloo and elsewhere
Mr.. Balsillie has found that rain in
variably falls after the kites have
been in the air from six to ten
hours.

COMMERCIAL STOCK OF
WHEAT

Washington, d. c., Oct. 28.-Ac
cording to a food survey of the De
partment of Agriculture dated Octo
Der 1, 1918, the commercial stocks
of wheat reported for that date
amounted to 5,997, S39 bushels as
against 114,331,s42 bushels report
ed on hand in similar survey for
September /. These figures refer
to stocks actually reported and do
not represent the total commercial
stocks Of the country, nor do they
include stocks on farms. The stocks
for October / were held by
1879 dealers. These holdings, like
those of September l, 1918, were
nearly three times as large as the
stocks held by the same firms year
earlier, the actual percentage for
October being 1916 per cent Of
the 1917 stocks.

CROOK HAS SHORT DIcITs.

Statistics compiled at the Ohic
penitentiary show that the average
crook is very similar to the average
citizen. There is one particular,
however, in which he differs. The
crook has shorter fingers than the
man who obeys the law.
The average prisoner at the big
"stir," which Is convict parlance for
"penitentiary," has gray eyes, chest
nut hair, is five feet seven inches tall
and weighs 40 pounds. His chin
projects slightly and forehead re-
cedes about As degrees.
He wears a No. z hat, No. w
shoes and No. Is collar. From Is
to 20 per cent of the prisoners are
tattooed, and about 60 per cent suf-
fer from serious diseases.
