AIDS TO CONSERVE FUEL Work of Geological Survey Will End Waste of Country's Natural Resources—Systematic Effort to Prevent Drains The startling facts recently detailed at the White House conference with the governors of the states concerning the tremendous waste in the use of the natural resources of the country and the dire predictions of their early exhaustion have not only been realized for years by the government experts but a systematic effort has been going on to stop these drains on the future prosperity of the country. The United States geological survey has been an important factor in this movement, and, while its work has been to a certain extent altruistic in that the immense benefits will come to the generations of the future, it has already saved millions of dollars worth of resources for the people of today. The survey’s geologic and topographic work has resulted in an inventory of the natural resources, a stock taking such as a prudent manufacturer takes once a year. This has disclosed the waste that has been going on, and led directly to the conference of the governors. The study and classification of the coal deposits of the United States, and especially those on the public domain, have established the value of these coals and have prevented the thoughtless disposal of the 50,000,000 acres of government coal lands. The values of the mineral deposits on government land have been approximated to such an extent that it will now be impossible to dispose of them without getting practically valueless under steamers because of their high permeability, have generated sufficient power in the gas engine to them of high commercial value, as high in ash as 45 per cent had used successfully in the gas engine. In the west, where the supply grade coal is inadequate, the lignites (the poorest form of North Dakota developed as much when converted into producer coals) did the best West Virginia bitte coals when used under the boiler steam engine. To the west this discovery of government scientists is of utmost importance. It makes possible theduction of cheap power and therestablishment of an industrypire of immense proportions. There are many million acres of lignite west, an almost inexhaustible source fuel that has so far been prauseless, the people being compelled a great distance for their own pay big freight charges on what did use. In the average steam engine but 5 per cent of the coal energy transformed into work. In the engine this percentage of efficient 124 per cent. The coal used in testing power in the United States year amounted to 300,000,000 tons; the universal use of the gas engine estimated that at least 100,000,000 of this coal could be saved. URGES CHANGES IN BOILER In testing the efficiency of co der the boiler of a steam engineer survey engineers suggest still a way to save the fuel. Recent comments indicate that boilers our perform two or three times tha they do now. In New York citytain large corporation has almostbled the capacity of its power plant placing furnaces in the rear of boilers as well as the front. They done to save several hundred tha IMMEDIATE BENEFITS While there have been many immediate benefits from the topographic work and a study of the water resources of the country, their value to the people will be many fold greater in the near future. Without an accurate topographic survey of the land and water, the contemplated improvement of the waterways, the drainage of swamps and the great irrigation projects would be impossible. The work already done along these lines will push these big improvements forward several years and result in the saving of much money. In its endeavors to check the great waste of the natural resources, the survey a few years ago extended its field by taking up the subject of the utilization of the fuels of the country, and so fruitful have been these investigations that there is every promise of a saving of millions of dollars within a short period. These investigations appeal directly to the manufacturer, the businessman and the consumer, for they show him how to realize immediate economies he never dreamed of before. Authorized to test the fuels owned by him, or for the use of the government itself, the survey has made a number of discoveries of the greatest importance to the entire people. At the government's fuel testing plant it has been shown that the gas engine is capable of generating from two and a half to three times as much power, using a given amount of coal, as can be obtained from a steam engine. This means, it is declared, that a 600 horsepower gas engine will save $5,000 a year in its coal bill over the same power steam engine, and that the saving on a 6,000 horsepower gas engine ought to amount to $72,000 a year. The gas engine has also opened the way for the use of millions of tons of low grade fuel, much of which has to the conference of the governors. The study and classification of the coal deposits of the United States, and especially those on the public domain, have established the value of these coals and have prevented the thoughtless disposal of the 50,000,000 acres of government coal lands. The values of the mineral deposits on government land have been approximated to such an extent that it will now be impossible to dispose of them without getting a fair return. In testing the efficiency of coals under the boiler of a steam engineer survey engineers suggest still a way to save the fuel. Recent elements indicate that boilers out perform two or three times than they do now. In New York city large corporation has almost bled the capacity of its power plants placing furnaces in the rear of boilers as well as the front. They done to save several hundred dollars, as it would have been necessary to purchase additional land at a high figure to carry on the tests of different coals under steam boiler at the government have also showed the possibility creasing the general efficiency of fired boilers 10 to 15 per cent ordinary commercial results. The survey is also engaged in general analysis of the coals of this try. These analyses have resulted in government purchasing coal finite specifications based upon its value. Under this system a grade of coal and coal better adapted to the types of furnaces in the government buildings has been obtained any increase in cost, which self is a saving to the government. These investigations, by suggesting changes in equipment and method also indicating the practicability government's purchasing cheapest such as bituminous coal and the sizes of anthracite, instead of expensive sizes. With new boilers heating plant of the State and Navy buildings in Washington $15,000 is now being saved each year the coal bill for this building alone. Many power plants are now fuel on specifications and havetained increased efficiency as a result of the government's investigation. These tests of the coal will aid facturers, wherever situated, to money in the purchase of coal, for will enable them to learn where can buy coal that is best suited to purposes.
