that when she has a house she viii

states the Springfield Republican.
II is called the hay box because the
simplest and cleanest method has been
found to pack hay about the pots con
tanning the cooking food. The hay
serves well TO prevent the too rapid
loss of heat and is cheap and easily
replaced. A German woman, wife OF
a director of an industrial school
states that she has used the hay boz
for l3 years and that 1t has both sim
plified the cares of housekeeping AMI
been a saving in expense.
The chief advantages set forth are
these: The cost Of fuel can be reduced
four-ffths by transfer Of food TO the
hay box as soon as II has reached a
,.opes heat; kitchen odors are OBJ
waited. time and labor saved, for no
stirring is necessary, nor is there any
fear of scorching or burning while the
food is left to cook itself: where work
mems families live crowded in one OF
two rooms the additional suffering
caused by the kitchen heat In summer
is obviated, since all the preliminary
cooking can be done in the cool of the
morning. Any dish can be cooked in
the hay box and kept hot as long as
desired. Almost any box with tight
fitting cover viii do. Old trunks have

DANCER OF DUST IN MINES
Principal Factor in Explosions Sub
iect of Stringent Regulations
in England.

At recent meeting of mining en-
gineers held in Leeds, w. II. Picker
ing, British mining inspector, read q
paper on The Dust Danger" reports
the London Times. The Importance OF
Gust e t-ctor in coiiiery explosions
was, he said, now generally recognized
and understood. Provisions had been
introduced in the coal mine regulation
act regulating the use Of explosives in
dry and dusty places and the Eek
Observation-Disclosures" order had been
issued by the home secretary.
In a few mines dust was system
aticaily laid by watering, but no wide
spread effort had been made TO strike
at the root of the danger. Permitted
explosives were only relatively safe,
for each one OF them was capable OF
initiating an explosion under certain
conditions, and it could not be too
often repeated and emphasized that Q
dust explosion could be started in
other ways than by an explosive. lg-
milton OF fire-damp might result from
a naked light or from a damaged OF
defective lamp or from spark from a
pick or an electric spark, and this
might be magnihed by dust into a
great explosion. Dust also increased
the danger OF underground fires.
Obviously, the only way Of remedy
ing the danger was to keep the mines
free from coal dust by cutting OF the
supply or by other means. As long
as dusty roads were allowed in the
mines the coal industry was under the
dark shadow of coming disaster. The
looming danger was recognized by all
and he submitted that this period OF
peace and immunity was the time 10
take practical steps to avoid danger.
re believed a discussion would show
that it was reasonably practicable to
keep moist mines comparatively free
from dust that was dangerous and this
freedom would conduce TO safety and
TO health and comfort as well.
