FACES POSSIBLE
NATURAL GAS SHORTAGE

Kentucky cities, which depend on
natural gas for lighting and heating
purposes, are facing the prospects
within few years of having to go
back to coal entirely for heating and
artificial gas or electricity for light
ing unless something is done to pre-
vent manufacturers of carbon black
entering the Kentucky gas field pro-
miscuously, DR.. w. A. Jillson, direc-
tor of the Kentucky Geological Sur
vey, declared. There are number
of carbon black factories in Eastern
Kentucky and several others have
been projected, DR.. Jillson said.
Carbon black is used for printers
ink, being the only successful sub
stance for inks for high-speed
presses, automobile tires, stove and
shoe polishes, photograph records,
black leather, book binding, carriage
cloths, celluloid, electric insluators,
cement colors, crayons, drawing and
marking inks, artificial stone, black
tile, trpaulins and many other uses
1t is manufactured by burning nat
ural gas against polished steel
surface and then gathering the re-
sultant SCOT.
Kentucky has twenty-five known
gas fields. Five of these, the Dia-
mond Springs field in Logan county,
Menifee county, Meade county, Clio
verport, in Breckenridge county,
and Martin county, are what the
geologist called the "Gas Pools of
Yesterday" In Menifee and Martin
counties some gas still is taken from
the pools but the others have been
exhausted.

Sense Qualities.

Instead Of there being only five
senses as we usually think, there are
probably as many as 10. Four dis
tinct senses, for example, are found
in the skin. These are heat, cold, pain
and pressure. What we usually call
touch is a combination OF these sense
qualities.
