LIGHT, FUEL, HEAT AND POWER
or THE FUTURE

There is little danger Of the supply
of coal and oil becoming exhausted
for many years to come, not in our
time at least, but there will come a
time when the inhabitants Of the earth
will be confronted with those. condi-
tions then what?
Scientists can not help specializing
more or less about these things and
their speculations are sometimes inn
mensely entertaining.
The general belief is that in some
way our coming Franklins and Edi-
sons and Marconi's will utilize the
tides Of ocean and the suns rays for
heat and power
An English scientist points out .eef-
tain facts that have immense signi-
ficance. He tells us that the storm
on the sun which recently upset our
cables and telegraphs. 10 say moth
ing of other repercussions in our ter
restrial atmosphere, is only a feeble
indication of the most wonderful fact
concerning the sun. namely, the enor-
nous amount of light and heat which
II is continually giving of. Sunlight
is to moonlight, he says is as 100000
is to I, and its intensity is $50 times.
as bright as the calcium light. If
the sun We're encased in a shell OF ice
81 feet thick, its heat would melt the
shell in just one minute! Or, if a
bridge of ice could be. built from the
earth to the sun, two and one-haIf
miles square in section and SO mil
lion miles long, and the entire solar
radiation concentrated upon it, the ice
would be melted in one second; in
seven seconds more that entire mas
siye structure would be dissipated into
vapor,
SO much has already been done in
the way of Harvesting the lightning
and making a conquest of the air.
that it is not unreasonable to suppose
that future scientists will as success
fully utilize the rays of the sun and
make it heat our homes and furnaces
and lasso the waves of the ocean SO
as to furnish driving power neces-
sary for all purposes.
Wonderful developments are in store
for the future.
