It would do away with the transportation .of the thirty per cent water and forty: per ip: gent by-products which ‘accompany the real.fuel in lignite. coal, ‘he sald. Instead,, the weightless electricity would be transported. ‘There is another method of putting the lignite into form in which it can ve jandled and marketed, however. he sajd. Dean B. §. Babcock of the University cf North Dakota has com- pleted experiments at the Hebron mines with a ferm of briquette made from the lignite which had a valuable fuel content of 94 per cent. All of the tar, oils, etc, are ‘distilled out of .the coal this .process,. leaving .only abeut per cent petroleum pitch as a binder to-hold the briquette togetr.. or. The fuel value of-these briquettes is greater than. that of anhracite coal he said.” i ' Depends on Competition: =.

The possibility of making the. lignite businéss, pay depends on compt ion with . eastern coal,, Mr. Anders pointed out. He declared that the, average price of ,the,, lignite is about. $1.75 per>ton—much less;than the eastern coal.‘ ‘ : Other difficulties to ‘be overcome in the coal m* would eliminate the latter.-point and make possible, all.the year round mining.

While yet the exception, the plight of the Hamidulline family in the vil- lage of Tigulbaeff shows what the win- ter may bring to the whole village. The father and of the family died in the spring of starvation. Then his ‘wife’ and two‘ sou: years “oid, ‘took to ‘the: tields and ‘ te the remains of atarved cattle... *! Then they killed and.ate'the housg cat. As they found they, cculd.live’on such food, they:ate several dozens of cats ‘in the village, and, when ‘this supply “ was” exhausted, wandered away.

The price of a pound: of a- mixture of acorns, bark, leaves and pigweed, used as bread; is ‘one-third that of; a pound of black bread. _ Pigweed sells for 2,000: rubles a pound. Many intestional! illnesses have been «aused by eating such food, until it is estimated. that 50 to. 70 per cent of the population is suffering from scurvy, dropsy and general exhaus- tion.
