seems no nearer achieving a solution
of the vexing conditions than a quar-
ter OF a century ago. Indeed, we are
farther from the probable alienation
OF the trouble than ever, with all the
complications of modern housekeeping
and the increasing weight of social
duties. The only relief which is prom
ised In any direction is in the line of
cooperative living, with the cooking
largely eliminated from the single
household. The servant question would
resolve itself into a simplicity of pur-
pose which would make the average
homekeeper desire to live forever. an
inclination which now assails her but

GREAT PEAT BoGs OF CANADA.
Fuel Supply of the Dominion Is
Practically Inexhaustible.
Erom the RnNalo EXpr,ss.


The best authorities say there are
100, 900 acres of undeVelOped peat bog
in Ontario, principally in the counties
of Perth, Welland and Essex. The
largest area lies in the county of Perth,
eight miles north Of the city Of STRAIT
ford on the Grand Trunk railway.
Here is a swamp of 10000 acres, with
a depth of peat bog that varies from
a foot to twenty feet. About a year
ago the Canadian Peat Fuel company
was organized and early in the sum-
mer active operations to put the fuel
on the market began
The process of manufacture is as fol-
lows The peat is cut and air-dried,
after which it is pulverized by being
passed through a picker and auto
mtaically deposited in hopper which
feeds a steel tube about two inches in
diameter and fifteen inches long. The
pulverized peat is forced through this
tube by pressure and formed into
cylindrical blocks three inches in
length and almost equal in density to
anthracite coal The fuel is nonfri-
able and weather-proof by reason of its
solidity and the extreme glaze impaired
to ii by frlctional contact with form
ing dies The inherent moisture of the
peat is reduced to - per cent of the
mass. In weight it compares with coal
as follows; Eighty-three pounds per
cubic foot of peat equal seventy-three
pounds of bituminous or ninety-three
pounds of anthracite coal.
1t is claimed for peat that it is super
ior to coal in its absolute freedom from
sulphur and the absence of smoke, SCOT.

In a great measure this solves the prob

purposes, as it is equally serviceablc

furnaces, giving long, bright flame

locomotives with excellent results, show
ing that the thermal value of 100 pounds
of peat is equal to 9515 pounds of coal.
1t was also tried at the power house of
the METROPOLITAN street railway, To-
ronto, and gave great satisfaction. Tho
heat produced was much greater than
that of the coal, but it was per cent.
deficient in lasting power 1t requires
but little draught and burns best in a
shallow tire-boX
The machinery used in manufacture
ing peat fuel is not expensive and re-
quires but little attention when in oper-
alton. The company claims that when
these works are fairly started 1t can
produce compressed peat fuel for sixty
cents a ton.

When he hears women lament over the
woes of meal-getting and the intricacy
