Wilson, n mining en gineer nnd expert, of L03 Angoles, I who has been spending some tlnn In this section Investigating the coal deposits nnd possibilities, states that It far exceeds his anticipa tion. Ho prophesies that tho de velopment of conf mining heio to what It should bo will revolution ize things on tho liny and develop many new Industries. He snys that by utilizing coal good gas can bo produced nnd sold nt ?1 por thousnnd, or nearly ono third less than It costs now, nnd furthermore, declares that electric ity can be sold olit nt a big profit at soven cents per k. w. instead of olovcu cents nn It Is costing now. In discussing tho utilizing local coal for tho maufneturo of gan for heating purposes, light and power by-products, ho says: "You nro shipping in raw ma terial for tho mnnufneturo of gas, whon you havo an unlimited qunn tlty of good material In your county begging for a market. A ton of your Coos County coal will pro "duco ten thousand or inoro cubic foot of gas. Tho gati Is not tho only product you can gut, and will get when you inako gas from tho coal. "Each ton of coal will produce, In addition to tho gas extrnctcd, tun gallons of coal tar and from thrco to flvo pounds of nmmonln. "From theso products you enn make ammonlncal llauor, solvent nnptlin, burning uaptha, nnpthleuo, carbolic acid, creosote oil for im pregnation, lubricating oil, uuthra cono, etc., nnd linvo pitch left from which lamp black is made.

"Thero Is no othor deposits of ccnl In tho United Stntes that will mnko moro or hotter gas than tho coal you havo horo at your doors.

"Owing to decreased advertising rovenuu arising out of tho war, 212 German news papers nro already said to havo dis appeared.
