Utilization of Coal Dust.

The Reading officials, headed by
President Corbin, recently visited the
company's coal plant at Mahanoy
City, Pa, to inspect new process of
making fuel from coal dust. Here
tofOre about one. seventh of the prod
uct of the coal mine has been lost in
dust. 1t is now intended to utilized
the dust by making it into bricks
that will burn like hard coal, except
that there are no chinkerS, as the
bricks burn to ashes. The new pro-
cess consists of the coal dust being
evenly distributed with onetenth
per cent of pitch. This by an ingeni-
Gus contrivance is pressed by great
machines into large cakes, steam he
ing used to moisten the mass. So
hard docs it become that it possesses
the same power of resistance as coal
or, in other words, hundred pounds
of pressed coal dust will last as long
as the same amount of hard coal. \
pressure of thirty-five tons is brought
to bear on each brick. There are two
presses in operation, which, when run
to their full capacity, will turn out
about eight hundred tons Of the bricks
in twenty-four hours. The bricks
take up % per cent less room than
ordinary coal, and in consequence an
engine can be loaded to gs one fourth
further without replenishing the sup
ply Of fuel. All the officials expires
sed themselves very much gratifed
with the new process. \ company
has been formed, with Austin Corbin
as President, for manufacturing this
fuel.

Decently Dressed.

S. NJ. Palmer tells the readers of
the Weekly Tribune something TO be
remembered by many farmers who
forget they have the noblest Of all
employments, He says: GA wells
dressed farmer called on business at
the boarding-place Of my son in town
and, after leaving, the gentleman of
the house was told by my son that
the caller was farmer, when he eX-
claimed, "He is no farmer!" OF this
farmer | once heard the remark that
he always looked as though he had
Just come ont of a handbook NoW,I
happen to know that his dress was
inexpensive and devoid Of foppery or
show; only plain, neat and clean,
and he always wore collar and
necktie when visiting or on business.
Evidently there is room for improve
mention the appearance of farmers
when abroad, or notice would have
been taken when one appeared neat
and tidy, with collar, etc. Farmers
who read this can refer to their own
observation whether the appearance
of themselves and neighbors is all
that it should e at home.
"If the children Of some fathers
and mothers are little ashamed OF
their parents uncouth dress, un-
kempt hair and general slouchy hab
it, they do not deserve to be very
highly censured. Why should a
farmer be stoop-shouldered, or OF
rolling or shutting gait? His work
is no harder than that of many a
townsman who carries his head erect,
with a straight form, and walks with
something of a martial air, as though
the equal of other men,"
