NEvERENDlNc WASTE OF FUEL
Geological Survey Experts Show That
There Is Immense Loss
Of Coal

WASHINGTON, d. c., May e.-Be-
cause OF the coal strike some OF the
opinions Of the geological survey re-
garding the waste of fuel in this coun-
try are interesting. In a recent report.
after showing that the people of this
500,000,000 for fuel for the production
of heat, light and power last year, the
experts Of the survey say
THE losses in the utilization Of fuel
for the development of power, light and
heat under existing conditions are so
great that in a ton of coal consumed
in an ordinary manufacturing plant
less than per cent of the total energy
is available for the actual work of
manufacturing; that in an ordinary To-
connective only from to per cent of
the fuel energy is obtained for pulling
the train; that in our houses ordinar-
lily not more than one-seventh of
per cent of the fuel energy is actually
transformed into electric light; that
gases from the blast furnaces of the
country are now lost in the atmo-
sphere that would yield continuously.
If properly utilized, more than $780,.

coke that would have an aggregate
yearly value much greater than that
of the coke itself. These oy-products
would include ammonium sulphate suf-
ficient to fertilize our farms, creosote
for the preservation of our timber, and
pitch enough for briquetting our slack
Goals. roofing our houses and repairing
some of our roads.
"How appalling that such waste
should continue after we know that 1t
exists! Unfortunately, it is not al
ways clear even to those who best un-
derstand the nature and uses of coal
how such economies may be effected.
No methods. for instance, are known
by which more than one-sixth of the
nitrogen in coal can be saved in the
manufacture of coke. There is no SUBJ
ject touching the welfare Of the human
race on which research is more needed
than economy in the use Of fuel"

BIG TREE REFUSES TO FALL

Stump

OXFORD, Pa, May ga giant
chestnut tree sawed entirely through
but still standing and refusing to fall,
even when wedges and a block and
tackle were applied to it, was a won
der which drew crowds of visitors to
the farm of James Paxson, near White
Rock.
This tree is an enormous chestnut
and measures eight feet across the
butt. 1t was struck by lightning about
a year ago and showed signs of rotting,
so that Paxson decided to cut 1t down.
A gang of men was put to work on 1t
and after considerable difficulty sawed
entirely through the trunk.
Instead of falling, as was expected,
the tree remained standing On its
stump and no amount of prying served
to bring it down. 1t remained there for
nearly week. Finally a heavy wind
storm blew it over.
The tree is believed to have been the
largest in this section and many pieces
of it have been carried off as souvenirs.
