The Use to which the Fisherman Puts "a.
Discarded Nets.
In the majority of households an old
newspaper is the material most com.
monty used to start fire, and the ad.
justment Of this material Is n matter Of
considerable art There should be enough
Of It to make flame sufficient TO ignite
the wood laid upon 1t, and II should be
put in with just the right degree Of
inoseness so chat the air will circulate
through ii and make il burn freely and
90 the best advantage But there are
houses in which paper is never used for
this purposc--the homes of fishermen.
Here, year i'll and year out, day after
day. the fire is started with chunk Of
discarded tlrrgd netting, and there is
nothing like it.
When u net gets tender, so that it is
likely to burst when "a body of kclp or
sawed floats against it in tide way,
or to break with big catch Of fish, it
is condemned. 1t may loo whole and
look all right, but it doesn't pay to take
any risks with it. Some fishermen using
a considerable number of nets may have
half ton of such netting in a year.
They use it to start fires, and give away
some of il. Formerly they sold il for
junk, and they do so now occasionally,
though not SO much us they did. 1t
brings cent q pound.
This netting has been tarred again
and again with fine, thin tar and it is
thoroughly saturated The net may be
0 feet deep. A length of it is rolled up,
and the roll is then flattened down. The
flattened roll may be inches wide, and
perhaps foot in length, just enough to
lie nicely on the CRATE of q kitchen
range. 1t is thoroughly dried before it
is used. 1t all ignites quickly, and
burns fieroely and uniformly, with o
blush fame aud rather pleasant odor.
A properly laid fire with a section Of
old tarred netting to start it never goes
out. Whoever attends to the kitchen
fire in the fisherman's house prepares it,
if possible, the night before and pulls u
strand from the tarrod netting out
through the bars Of the CRATE in front.
To start the fire in the morning all that
is necessary is to touch lighted match
to the end Of that tarred rope yarn.
Some Of this tarred netting has been
sold to start the fire in locomotives.
Such thing is not unheard of as the
use Of cotton waste and oil for this pur-
pose, but sheet of old tarred netting
laid over the CRATE bars beats the cotton
waste out Of sight Still, locomotives
have multiplied and tarred netting cuts
no figure as means Of starting the fire
in them. 1t is perhaps now used for
that purpose, if at all, only on roads
running through or near fishing dis
tricts. And, as said, it is now rarely
sold. The fisherman uses it to start his
own fire, and the man who has more
than he wants gives to his neighbour
