SIR: j now give you the further information PROMISED
IN INV brief note In TIE TRIBUNE Of yesterday. VIII
answer the above questions well as can IN the snort
est space word fret to give fair start oil round we
have attempted necuton and we have NOS gone 70 the
speeutos We believe have CHEAPER and BETrfr fne
II this be so great fact and everybody ought TO know
all about it. Oar Inventions and Discoveries nre fully protect
ed BY Letters Patent Ths gives inventors and discoyeers
rights at law but do not wish to convert these rights
into monopoly We sure 10 make more money than we
need bv optais9 eur PGitgn hs sOd, and furnishing TO
resns long and successful experiments so
that each person company that wishes to make this ae
can quicker make better and cheaper with our assist
anee under License from than in any other way, Now
l. WHAT 10 IT MADP AT the beginning of Mr.. Haseds
expermsns looked for ekeP materials He bad to discover
something that would burn easy and be within oyerybodys
reach This before any PEAT excitement arose iG the
United States Every weread man in fuel knew ana 60 ava
eyery rishmau Just landed from the Erin boys that Peat was
fuel But Ansieans generally did not know this And so we
fooisby cut down ma1y Of which were growing
over held fifty times much fuel as they Gov
erc and aonng for This by the loss Of our timber and
sbadeces and bring our lumber from Maine or the
Canadian or forests and coal from Pennsylvania
or Nova Scotia, or Yorkshire.
Starting with Peat which had been used BY many nations for
aees the Ingredient found 1t existed almost every
wherethere end TO tie qanhtty-and II vi" JIeF
There was nothing this Bot it had to be dried ana
pressed or pressed and dried and IL was bulky OF wond
not hold ogeher had 10 10 handled too much ard cost
TOO much labor and people didn't know exactly how 10
mensge it--and aer all it would not qniie do-and yet
was great step the road enP faeL And when Peat
gets full chance to be fairly tried it viii dc fer more Than Its
best advocates claim for IL.
Bat Peat clone good IT, had to give way TO something
stronger, better. cheaper more compact.
Other snbs,aloos had 10 be combined with H. containing
more carbon in space rease coal dust anihaeeo or

the greatest advantage FOR ihcy what Peat Isl and any
