Os this increase the products of the mines alone accounted tor 2,696,905, or considerably more than one-half the tonnage preponderance over the seven months of 1922. The increase in manufactures and miscellaneous commodities is given as 1,355,753 tons; the increase in forest products, 356,567, and the increase in animal products carried, 100,700 tons. - The figures are of interest chiefly as indicating the enlarged service capacity resulting from the consolidag/yi does it thunder ? —because electricity (lightning). in passing through the clouds, meets resistance which causes heat.
