FUEL IN FAMILY ECONOMY.
Expenditure Should Rise and Fall AZ
cording to Income.

The law of expenditure as laid down
by DR.. Engel of Germany embraced the
rule that the percentage of Il family's in
come expended for fuel or light is inyari-
ably the same, whatever the income. If
the Engel law is sound, the aggregate
expenditure on account of fuel for the
same family should rise and fall with the
income. Income remaining the same this
year as last, it follows that equal ex-
penditure this year with last will be
made for fuel by the average family, and
no more; ami il coal remains ut from So
to 50 ton, the quantity purchased
should shrink about 80 per cent, which
is the approximate increase in price over
last year.
1t is probable that this figure does not
exaggerate the actual decline in the de-
mand for coal which will be experienced
at present prices. 1t is more likely that
the percentage of decline in demand will
exceed that of increase in price, for pres
cnt conditions must have the effect of
calling the attention of the average man
TO the very large item which fuel has
come TO be in the family economy. Amer
leans are the most eXtrayagant people
in the world in the heating of their habi-
tations. The average house in these
parts of the United States is artificially
heated pretty nearly from top to bottom
throughout the SIN months of cool and
cold weather. In Europe family will
expend, say per cent. OF the income on
fuel. and get less for the same money
than here, compelling the confinement of
warmth to small fraction of the dwell
ing and the use of portable stoves; but
an American family will expend & to s
per, cent, of income. and with prices of
coal no more than they were last year,
the average family could NOT heat the
whole house for much less than 5 or 8
per cent. of income,
This is far more than anyone is iustie
fed in eNpending for fuel As the rent
charge cannot be allowed to rise much
above. II per cent. OF income with due
regard for economy and saving against

standard OF comfort in 4 good many cases
