Announces discovery of significant amounts of helium in natural gas fields of western Kansas. Helium content was roughly proportional to nitrogen content, and roughly inversely proportional to combustibles including methane.
"Kansas is to be congratulated on the possession of an unlimited and easily available supply of what has been considered a very rare element, a supply which has never been suspected before. It assures the fact that helium is no longer a rare element, but a very common element, existing in goodly quantity for the uses which are yet to be found for it."
