PEAT IN THE UNITED STATES, lJUl
The occurrence and uses of peat
are described by Mr.. Heinrich Ries
in "Mineral Resources OF the Uni
ted States,' 1901, now in press,
United States Geological Survey,
David T. Day, Chief Of Division.
Peat is most commonly formed Of
a moss, which thrives in moist,
north temperate climates. There
are probably, says Mr.. Ries, No
large areas of peat in the United
States equal to those found in Ire
land and Northern Germany, but
many small deposits exist, some
of which may cover several hun
dred acres. Except in the case. o.
those close to the Canada border
most OF these peat deposits are pro
baby rather high in ash or minera
matter. These impure peats o
muck make a very rich soil. Th'
!, peat is at times underlain by marl
or in rarer instances by bog iroi
ore.
The best known use OF pure o.
nearly pure, peat is as a fuel, bu
with wood and coal so cheap in th'
\ United States no successful attempts
have been made to utilize it for this
purpose. Peat can also be used II
the manufacture of gas, alcohol. anc
charcoal. On account OF its fibrou'
character it can even be successful
ly worked up into paper, cloth Of
rope. The partly decomposed moss
has valuable antiseptic properties
and under the name OF ''moss-lit
ter" is sold for bedding in stables
The growing moss is also used a.
packing material. 1t is in ths
three last mentioned applications
that the successful use OF American
peat is probably TO be looked for
Curiously enough, peat for packing
purposes is sent from Holland t'
the United States, where it is usec
for packing American wines, whicf
are then exported t. Europe. Th'
peat industry Of the United States
|, seems as yet not to have gotten be
|, yond the experimental stage.
In northern Indiana there arr
peat deposits from Noble across
/, to Lake counties; and in the north
! ern, north eastern and central por
. tions of Illinois peat is said TO b
fairly abundant, large deposits oc
, curing also in the Green River y al
, ley on the west, and in Union
, Alexander, Jackson and othe
, southern counties.
