New Theory on Gravitation by Professor Downum
Professor J. M. Downum proposes that space ether is static electricity driving celestial motions. He argues the universe resembles a network of electric dynamos with bodies attracting via this pervasive electric force, aligning with observed planetary speeds and rotations.
The Great Force of the Universe and Gravitation
A speculative treatise praises a mysterious universal force binding matter. It argues gravitation as the electric drawing power holding earth and celestial bodies, suggesting this force may underlie light heat and power and could be the life giving and healing power per Divine Master Hand.

Home Grown Wood Makes Best Fuel
State College extension forester R. W. Graeber promotes using home grown wood in North Carolina homes, arguing two pounds of wood equal one pound of coal and that a cord of heavy woods equals a ton of coal in heating value. He notes economic benefits for the state and forest health by harvesting over mature and diseased trees. The piece also cites Edgar Wallace on American language and farmer depiction.
