DIVISION FREIGHT AGENT TELLS OF STATE FIGURES Interesting statistics have been made public by William J. Hose, of this city, division, freight agent of the Pennsylvania railroad. The figures show the comparative value of natural resources output of Pennsylvania, during years 1916 and 1915. They were complied by Colonel Henry C. Demming. Division Agent Rose says: "A study of those statistics will be found not only interesting but of great value. They are of marked significance to every Pcnjnsylvanian." Few Decreases Decreases are shown only in petroleum, sand, lime, brick, slate and stone. The value of coal, coke, natural gas and petroleum are not based upon the output, or at the derrick, but upon prices of wholesalers. Much of the culm waste is now utilized, partly by briquetting and this sold, therefore a large asset.
