Economy Of Fuel.

In nothing are the people OF tlus
country more extravagant and care
less, than in the use Of fuel; whether
consumed to warm their dwellings, or
in The arts, aud for manufacturing
purposes. Wood has long been album
dant and cheap, SO thatvery few have
deemed it necessary to study econo-
my in preserving it, or in the saving
of labor in preparing it for eombus-
ton.
This fact does not lessen the pro-
priety of learning the principles OF
true economy in the consumption oil
wood and coal. In cooking, washing,
and warming rooms, due care should
be taken not to generate more heat
than is really needed. Open doors
and windows often create prodigious
demand for wood and more fire, with
out ever making the room truly COM
Portable. Ventilation is so perfect,
that, if it were not for appearances,
one might about as well live in a tent
as in some houses occupied by fami-
lies. The winter months are enjoyed
very much in warmly constructed
house, no matter if made of logs
with plenty of dry wood, so far as
exemption from cold is concerned
Few are aware how many fine dwell
lings are rendered comfortloss, by
some defect in keeping them uni
forinIy at the right temperature. :
One that travels good deal, ane
sleeps in many different houses il
the country, will soon learn thu
strange Indifference that prevails OF
this subject, and be amazed at tn
loss Of labor incurred in cutting ant
burning green wood to warm all out
doors. Many a man throws away
one hundred dollars year In tbl
manner, who would feel sore indeee
if asked to give ten dollars a year f
purchase instructive books for hi
children. The payment Of the latte
sum, small as it is, he regards as
serious loss; but he can, by the laci
of good economy in the use OF fuel
sustain a loss Ten or twenty times al
IT
large and never complain. lie doe
nos.want o convenient wood-house
for he rarely'has more than cord o
wood at time near his dwelling :
The wisdom Of having wood chopped
when no other work on the farm i
pressing, and stored up under shelter
has wholly escaped his business cal
culations. Hence, his necessary fire
wood is first cut at a disadvantage
then hauled at a disadvantage, thel
burnt in way that wastes more
than half of the latent heat in tn
fuel; and finally the heat that is rcall,
radiated into the room is soon driver
out through open cracks 10 walls
windows, around doors, the upper an
neither floors, and through the wild
Threats Of chimneys.
