gasoline.
It is not-, however, because the
new fuel can lie s«»ld cheaper
than gasoline that it is to have
such an important bearing on
the auto-fuel question, lint that
100 gallons of crude oil may now
be depended U|ion to yield 40
gallons of eUtomobile fuel, in-
stead of only 20 gallons. For*
inerly 100 gallons of crude oil
gave 20 gallons of kerosene, 20
gallons of gasoline and 60 gal-
lons of fuel oil. Under tlie new
process of refinement the crude
oil still gives 20 gallons of gaso*
line and the 80 gallons of kero-
sene, while the 60 gallons of fuel
oil is so refined as to give 20
gallons of motor spirit, the re-
maining 40 gallons Iteiiig a resi-
due which may be sold for other
I imposes. This residue is said
to be almost as valuable as the
fuel oil —From the June Popu-
lar Mechanics Magazine.

The Memorial sermon will tie
preached Sunday, May 26, 1913,
at the M. E church in Home-
stead, Okla. Sermon by Rev.
W. U. Heaton,
Omaha Tornado.
Investigations by a building
expert as to why some buildings
withstood the force of tlie Oma-
ha tornado, while most of those
in its path were completely de
strayed,, justify tlie conclusion
that the construction of tornado
proof buildiftgs is not difficult,
says the June Popular Mechan-
ics Magazine, Imfc is purely u
matter of some what better work
manship than is ordinarily pul
into cheap buildings.
Recommendations as to the
construction of ordinary frame-
houses resulting from this in
vestigation are included in the
article, which is accompanied
hy a number of views showing
some of the devastation wtoughL
by the storm.
The Source of the New "Mo*,
tor Spirit”
The new automobile fuel ap
(rearing on the market underthe
name of ‘ motor spirit” will, ae
cording to many automobile au»
thurifies, both in this country
and abroad, do away, for maby
years at least, w ith the fear of a
fuel shortage that will raise pri*
Vi'S to a figure almost prohibitive
for many m ’tolists. The fuel
can be sold at 3 cents per gallon
less tha t the present price of ga-
soline, abd it has an efficiency
of 16 per cent more mileage per
gallon than ordinary grades of
sine
was
only 92 tons, valued at $2,550.
Most of this concentrate came
from the Peoria district, where
little mining was done in 1912.
The shipments of sphalerite
concentrates in 1912 amounted to
12,192 tons, valned at 494,897.
Of this output 250 tons came
from the Arbuckle Mountain re-
gion, Murray County, in south
ern Oklahoma, 1,621 tons from
the Quapaw district, and 10,258
t .m from the Miami district.
Many mines in the (Juapaw dis-
trict made no sale of concentrates;
and the shipments of galena ron
centrales declined 328 tons and
those of sphalerite more than OuO
tons.
The Miami cmnp was very nr
live, Extensive dii ling opera
lions were conducted and several
new concentrating« plants were
built. At many of the older mints
shafts were sunk to a lower run
of ore, aid in consequence
smaller quantity of concentrates
than usual was produced, but the
developments are satisfactory and
will probably result in a large
production. The new properties
in the northern portion of the
camp made a large yield after the
plants were started In 1912 the
Miami district shipped 1,408 tons
of gstsnaconcentrates and 1,867
tons of sphalerite concentrates
more th n in 1911, and the value
ot the recoverable metallic con
tent increased $229,958.
