TESTING FIRE WOOD
Iry-out Between Fir and Slab Mood
at Station House.

The tryout of the burning of slab
wood in the furnaces of the state
house has been watched with great
interest this winter, and not little
surprise was evinced when 1t was
learned that 1t was cheaper to burn
old fir than it is to use slabs, says
the Salem Journal.
Engineer Frank Frisby made the
tryout in the state house furnaces
during the latter part of November,
and the first of December, and he
says that under the conditions that
the slab wood had an advantage over
the fir, In the fact that 1t was slightly
warmer weather during its trial, and
also that the old fir would show up
a greater saving than 1t did IL the
weather had been colder.
The trial lasted 32 days, 16 for each
kind of wood. The slab wood was
first tried, and 35 cords were consum-
ed in the length of time given. This
wood, costing s2.95 per cord, amount
ed to $103.25 In the trial.
Against this was placed 23 cords OF
old fir, which was burned during the
same length of time, during colder
weather, and which cost $500 per
cord, amounting to $3.50, through
out the test. The difference between
the cost of the two kinds of wood
being $13.55 in favor of the more ex-
pensive old fir.
