An Effect of Wei PIowina.

There is perhaps no place that re-
o,,ires more nerve on the part of the
farmer than to refrain from plowing
bis land too wet in the spring when
his work is apparently getting be-
hind each day and his neighbors about
him are pushing their plows and drags
irrespective of the conditions OF the
soil Some men withstand temptation;
others Weld and injure their land to
such a. degree that it does not fully re-
cover for years.
Last spring there was a great deal
ton much rain in a great many sections
of the country The sail, consequently,
was too wet to be worked as early as
usual Every farmer was worried by the
delay, and some revolted and ploWeo

IL the demand for new pillow points
that the farmer is lamenting his ex-
nense cursing his dad luck"
On the farm where the operator had
the nerve to wait and pillow according
to the condition of the soil rather than
time of the season, he has found that
his oats have yielded just as well and
his corn is perhaps more promising
than that of the neighbor who refused
to delay his farm work until the soil
hecame fit. More than this, when he
started his pillow in the oat ground last
month to prepare the land for wheat
or the succeeding crop, he found that
he could plow with comparative ease,
where his neighbor was compelled to
labor under serious difficulties. or stop
work altogether

PROGRESS IN PEAT Brio uE11ING.

A series of experiments is under way
near the historic village Of Lexington,
Mass, which may add to it's renown as
the birthplace of successful resistance
to oppression. 1T is here that Profess
sor c. d. Jenkins is carrying on his
Investigations of peat as fuel. He
has so far succeeded that the motive
power Of the Boston and Maine rail-
way is trying this fuel on shifting en-
gines and for short local runs. 1t has
been found that the peat briquettes
that the cost is less than that of coal,
while hardly any smoke comes from
the smokestacks. The only disadvan-
tage that has appeared is one that will
normally disappear if the use OF the
briquette ever becomes uriversal--peat
fuel cannot be used in connection with
coal in the same LOGON otive: either
the one kind of fuel mus be employed
or the other. The peat briquettes

railroad runs for the reason that de-
pots of supply would have to be estab-
lished along the route, since all the
through trains have frequently to coal
up. If, however, success continues,
no doubt the use in long hauls will
come
Prof. Jenkins has experimental in
the production of peat coke with re-
suits that give satisfactory promise
that economically disable peat coke
may be possible. The chief feature at
the Lexington experime rental station,
however, is a briquetting house
equipped with special machinery into
which the wet peat Is thrown and
from which 1t emerges in the shape
of pressed cylinders with a hole run
ming through the center. They are
compact and almost as hard as coal
after they have been properly dried
under conditions of intense heat.
Discovery of cheap method Of bril-
quoting peat into commercial useful
ness Is Of great import ance to Iowa
1t means a new industry for the state.
Iowa has vast mines of the vegetable
mold that gives promise Of becomink
competitor of coal, enough to run all
the railroads in the state for many
years and supply the needs of the in
Vulnerable factories that would spring
up about the peat beds. Peat is dis
tributed over Iowa in such fashion
that its utilization would eliminate the
,long coal hauls that now increase the
cost Of our standard fuel to the dis
advantage Of smaller manufacturing
ventures in various parts of the state
Next to a natural gas discovery
cheap way OF placing peat into the list
of standard combustibles would boom
the sections where it is located. Ex-
periments are under way at Bows and
several other points in Iowa and the
projectors may take courage by the
evident confidence of Prof. Jenkins
that he is about to revolutionize the
of manufacturing in dis
tricts that are not accessible to coal
fields.
