Unreasonable r1cl.

A few calculations relative to lac com
parativs value OF gre, and seasoned
wood for fuel, may serve to remind those
interested OF the importance OF attention
to the subject.
Every body knows tha, grccn wood is
poor stuff to kindIe FIRE. though some
contend that it will keep up as well as
seasoned, il applied CONSTANTLY, no, SUI
ierlng tho heat to 60 down. That IS, II
you have good fire 10 season it in, you
can burn green wood a. we'll as dry.
But to the calculations
A green stick of wood. weighing 100
lbs, when seasoned weighs only 66 lbs,
or such - about the average OF wood CON-
monl used for fuel. La seasoned suck
you have all tho ", BOD $50 all ,has will sup
port combussion--~you ave only got rid
of "a lbs. of water
Now, water will not burn, and ii pre-.
| sent in fuel. II has to be converted unla
steam, n the expense OF tha, fuel and i,
viii take five times us much heat 10 make
steam oil water, as II will simply 10 bring
1t t. boiling point, Here IS seen Il,
once, the poor economy oil burning green
wood
We have shown tha, abou, one third o.
The weight oil green wood is water: now
how many barrel. OF water is there IN q
cord OF wood' Tnero ars l2S cubic le =,
in cord, which allowing ,wo-ii,hs 70,
vacant space between thu sticks, leaves -
| feet OF solid wood, our.thirl of which i:
water equal to over six barrels OF water
In every cord OF ercen woJd. The hea
required TO eyepora;e this water, would
bring 80 barrels tothe boiling point. And
this is no. the only expense It ,hr WOO
is Gu, properly, piled and seasoned in he
woods, the cost OF drawing i, would b.
nearly one-third less. Amy way YOU car
look at ii, the economy OF burning green
wood IS more than questionable.
| Every farmer should look nj, aud deter.
mine to keep good stock OF wood OF
hand, sufficien, TO last one year, at least.
And he may take ano:Ler look at the dl.
terence between wood seasoned JUS,
enough, aud under cover. and ,Aa, which
has lain out OF doors until all the sap.
wood has become rotten, aud one-hali ,s
value been los. by exposure to the wealth.
