  of 
  the 
  product 
  was 
  $106,951 
  as 
  compared 
  with 
  $96,084. 
  Almost 
  

   the 
  whole 
  quantity 
  was 
  taken 
  from 
  the 
  mine 
  at 
  Graphite, 
  War- 
  

   ren 
  co., 
  though 
  many 
  other 
  enterprises 
  have 
  been 
  inaugurated 
  

   during 
  the 
  few 
  years. 
  

  

  A 
  somewhat 
  unusual 
  industry 
  not 
  elsewhere 
  represented 
  in 
  

   this 
  country 
  is 
  that 
  connected 
  with 
  the 
  production 
  of 
  natural 
  

   carbon 
  dioxid, 
  or 
  carbonic 
  acid 
  gas, 
  as 
  it 
  is 
  generally 
  known. 
  

   The 
  gas 
  occurs 
  in 
  association 
  with 
  the 
  mineral 
  waters 
  of 
  Sara- 
  

   toga 
  Springs 
  and 
  its 
  collection 
  and 
  storage 
  for 
  use 
  form 
  an 
  

   interesting, 
  as 
  well 
  as 
  important, 
  industrial 
  development. 
  About 
  

   5,000,000 
  pounds 
  of 
  the 
  gas 
  are 
  sold 
  each 
  year, 
  chiefly 
  to 
  manu- 
  

   facturers 
  of 
  carbonated 
  waters.
