The Coal Shortage

It Is probable that oil burning
equipment will be Installed by some
houscholders. In such cases they
should he sateguarded in accordance
with regulations Issued by national
board of fire underwriters. II may
be said. briefly. that systems en-
ploying gravity feed TO burner in
troduce greater hazard than those
having fuel supply delivered TO
burner by pumps taking suction
from tanks located underground.
While kerosene is not as hazardous
as gasoline, It gives off inflammablc
vapors that are explosive under Ccr-
tain conditions.
There IS little doubt that portable
oil stoves viii become prominent
household appliance in near future.
and It's use should be attended with
great care. Numerous fires have
been caused by filling reservoir
while wick was lighted.
Explosions have been caused by
defective wicKs which DO not entirely
fiji wick tube section OF burner, thus
leaving free communication between
flame and space above oil in reser-
yuir. Under such conditions yapOr
ascends ana, coming IN contact with
burning wick, flashes back TO rescr-
voir. Occasionally wick and burner
should bo boiled IN strong solution
OF soda or lye and carefully dried
before again being placed in service.
This not only gives a better light. but
enhances safety Of operation New

600 gallons Of gasoline, nearly 10
per cent OF the Couutry's supply in

Doctor Hasemnn OF the oklahoma
state university and universally
known as a scientist OF great repute,
The theory IS 10 be able eventually
TO locate oil stratas underneath the
earths surface and determine also
whether or not they contain oil. The
experiments. near Pcrca C!'y, have
TO do principally with the recording
OF sound waves created by the eX-
plosion Of dynamite AZ distances Of
1000 feet above the earth, 1000 feet
up and 1000 feet.
During the World war Doctor Hase-
man made an enviable reputation
through research work. An instrus
ment was used by the French where
by sound waves were recorded and
they were able 10 designate very
closely the location Of German bat
teries and the size OF the guns being
used. The different sized shells
created different sound waves and
when these waves registered on this
particular instrument, the treNcn
could tell the location OF the bat
terieS. II Is understood that one
such instrument is now under a glass
case in Washington, d, 9.
II IS the understanding here that
the instrument, used by Doctor Hase-
man in his experiments here, Is akin
70 that used by the French during
the war. Associated with him IN his
work here are Dr. d, W. O'Hern.
