ment in q way, in that together they
are trying to reap from the surface
of the earth those riches which stand
at the bottom of the wealth Of this
country. It is rather unusual, how
ever, to have line Of work that con-
meets not only agriculturally, but
connects mining with work of this
sort. Mining is the second of the two
great industries on which the coun-
try must depend for raw material and
for food. It is not generally known,
l believe, that for every $500 of farm
products from the farms of this
country, 81 is used by the Government
to foster the business Of agriculture
through this great Agricultural de-
partment. But here is the great busi-
ness of mining, which gets raw ma
erial of all sorts, which gets the coal
from which all power must come,
that has had a bureau in the depart
ment to represent it's interests only
during the last eight or ten years, and
the amount of money that is spent -
that is returned to the industry for
investment purposes, is a very, very
very small fraction. bring this up
only to indicate that the Bureau of
Mines which l am privileged to re-
present has a field ahead-a field of
usefulness, of appeal to the individ-
ual, which is comparable somewhat
to the field of usefulness of our great
Agricultural Department. And here
l find a brother member of the de-
partment of Interior bringing togeth-
er the reclamation work, the irriga-
tion work, and work in mines. It
pleased me greatly today to go
through this great mine which is on
your reclamation project.
One of the functions which the Bu-
reau Of Mines is charged is investi-
eating fuel products. Coal is one of
the first of the mineral products. 1t
fills two out of three cars of all rail-
road traffic, and about one-third of
the energy of the railroads is taken
up hauling this product to and fro
over the country. Now fuel prob
lens are many. l could talk all
evening on the many and carried prob
blems that come to your Bureau of
Mines in this field. But this new
problem Of Ignite has been thrust
forward in rather a CONSPICUOUS posi-
ton by the passage of bill appro-
priating 100000 for the ihvestiga-
cation of Ignite and peat.
During the war the fuel problem
as you know, became very serious.
1t became matter of national impor-
tancewhether people who were living
on top of great fuel bed demanded
that the transportation facilities of
the country should still be used to
bring you your cherished fuel from
the East anthracite or bituminous
coal. Some of the districts had to
dealt with rather sharply. Some dis
tricts had to be denied their usual
fuel. Because of that, state like
New Jersey, that has no Ignite, that
is next door to the great anthracite
mines, is equally interested with you
in the development Of your Ignite
resources, so you will learn to use
them. l understand that you have
learned that here, but am speaking

A Government Briqueting Plant is Possibility

Frof. o. H. Hood, Of TIE Bureau
of Mines, s. NJ. Darling, ignite ex-
,,e.t, Of Washington. D. c., and C. p,
Williams, assistant chief Of con
struction for the Department Of the
Interior, with his office at Denver,
were in the city the first Of the week
Mr.. Williams was here in the inter-
ests Of the irrigation project and
Prof. Hood and Mr.. Darling repres-
ented the Government in its search
for location for briquetting
plant.
The Government has appropriated
the sum of one hundred thousand
dollars to be used in the study or in
vestigation of the briquetting of
Ignite coal. AS the experiment
work has been in progress for some
time the plan now is to build plant
somewhere to manufacture briquets.
They propose to build a plant that
would turn out 100 tons of briquets
day. The plant would have gas
to sell and this could be used by the
city.
This proposition is the best that
has been before our citizens for a
long time an dthe beauty of it is
that we should have the best chance
of all to land the plant. We have
the Irrigation plant which it would
help q great deal; we have the
Government mine which could with
in ten days notice deliver 200 tons
Of Ignite q day to the briquetting
plant and we have the government
coal lands reserve of over 1900 acres
in conection with this mine. Taken
all together this gives us fine
chance and if the people are wide
awake and push the work there is
no reason in tn eworld why we
should not land it.
And when it comes to live ones
pushing, you should have been at
the Community Club banquet Tues
day evening, when these distin-
guished visitors were entertained at
q luncheon, songfest and smoker.
The I. O. O. F. dining room was
crowded and everyone enthusiastic.
After fine luncheon and many
songs and talks were delivered by
several local men and the visitors.
The talks by the local men We're
good, but we are sure you want to
know what the visitors had to say,
so will give our space to them.
Mr.. Williams gave an interesting
talk about the irrigation project and
the values Of land after it had been
successfully irrigated for years.
Mr.. Darling in speaking of the
briquetting plant said in part: .
~ am not a stranger to Williston
and this splendid reception makes me
feel at home. I was here in 1911.
We heard that man by the name
of Bruegger had q dream about
Ignite 80 l came out to investigate
Plans were under way to start work
but were held up for the past four
years on account Of the war. This
dream about Ignite has chance
to come true for no matter where
this plant is located, if it proves
success every place like Williston
that has coal beds will be sure to
have a plant. You folks are on top

The local high school five will take
on h strong st. Peters High Of
New Brunswick on Wednesday at the
this season between these two fves,
h first encounter resulting in a vic
tory for the county seaters in a hard
and well fought game at the New

were beaten in the last six minutes of
play Amboy maintaing the lead until
the few minutes toward the n when
the Brunswick team piled up forteen
points and thereby clinching the game
In that game Amboy went into the
fray without the services of forward
Red Splitter and center, Fat Hanson,
who were both on the sick list. Spit
ger will play on Wednesday, but Ham
son will not be seen in action at this
game on account of an injury received
during the first game with ASbury
Park and may not be able to play
during the month of February. The
locals are now rounding into form
class form as they proved in the As
bury game, when Amboy was defeated
and although being defeated they
showed great ability against their
heavier and more experienced oppon-
ents. They are confident of admins
tering u crushing defeat to the st.
Peters team
The county eat team is out for the
county championship and they are
well on their way toward getting it.
This team has never appeared in the
limelight much before. but they have
developed an unusually strong team
this year as has bee proven by their
defeating some of the best teams
around this section of Jersey and they
are certain of again proving Amhoy's
