SaMniLI Refuse as EneI

The manufacture of lumber is the
chief industry of Portland. saws o. B.
Coldwell in an article on the value of
sawmill refuse as fuel, published in
the Journal of Electricity The daily
output of sawdust amounts to SOS
wagon-loads The sawmills all use
this by-product for steam-raising pur-
poses, but much remains over, and
this is sold. The Portland General
Electric Company uses from 100 to $50
loads of this refuse per "a hours in
its boiler plant, this being burnt In
a Dutch-oven type of furnace, built
out in front of the boilers. These are
entirely filled with the fuel to reduce
air leakage. A number of evaporat-
i've tests are given to show the value
of this refuse for steam-raising pur-
poses. The cost of fuel per kilowatt-
nOur in these tests varied from 057
TO 0.SS cent, as compared with or
cent, when oil was employed. Oil is
displacing coal in California on az.
count OF its lower cost, but in Pott
land it will have to compete with
sawmill refuse, AMI as these compare
tive trial tests show. the refuse is the
cheaper fuel for steam-raising pur-
poses.

Drowning of the Guns.

Fred Taylor and Raymond Bixby,
residing east Of Savannah, y. Y,
while out hunting in a rowboat on
Seneca River, had a narrow escape.
They were drifting down stream. Tay-
lor was steersman. When nearing the
Central bridge the current changed,
preventing him from guiding the boat
safely under and it crashed into one
of the stone piers with much force,
partly wrecking the boat, throwing
both men and guns INFO the icy
water. After struggling in the water
they succeeded in gaining a firm hold
on the overturned boat and began to
send up loud cries, as they were be-
ing carried along by the swift cur
rent. A. g. Carr, engineer in the New
York Centrais pumping station, To-
Gated a few hundred feet from the
scene. heard the cries of the men and
securing a sledge-hammer broke into
a boathouSe and was soon on his way
to the rescue, overtaking the men
clinging to the capsized boat about
a mile below the bridge. They were
both dragged into his beat in an ex-
hausted condition after their twenty
minute ice-water bath. Bixby lost his
grip on the boat twice and went to
the bottom, but each time managed
to reach the floating boat and grab
hold anew. Both men were badly
frightened and the two guns wiz
probably remain in the water for
some Rochester Union and Ad-
vertiser.

PLACER GOLD VARIES IN VALUE.
Other Minerals Carried in Smooth
Nuggets of More Precious
Metal,

mGLdIs
Placer miners are frequently puz.
zled, and not infrequently angered,
because of the varying values of the
mineral as given by the refineries or
the Mint, says Dennis H. Stovall in
the Chicago Mining World. At one
time the miner will receive $500 an
ounce for shipment A few months
later he will receive S19 or $3.50 for
a second shipment. He is angered be-
cause, on first thought, it seems clear
ly case of short allowance" as
both shipments were of gold from the
same diggings and removed the same
season. He is confident there is a
leak" somewhere, and if he has been
shipping TO a smelter he will change
to the Mint, or if the Mint he will
change to the smelter, only to ascer-
tain at later date that the fault does
not lie with the buyers, but with the
gold itself. For there is a difference
in the quality of placer gold, and the
difference exists in the same district
or along a single gulch or stream.
The writer had occasion to make
an investigation in this matter, be.
cause of complaint to the Mining
World entered by placer miner tat
the Mint was giving him short allow
ance" on shipments. Through this
investigation it was learned that the
varying values of placer gold, of mug
gets, and even finer dust, is due to
coarseness or fineness of the metal
In other words, it is the texture of
the metal that decides its worth 1t
was found that in the same stream
the nuggets uncovered near the mouth
of the creek are of better quality than
those found at the source The rea-
son for this is not far to seek. The
former have travelled farther and
have been longer separated from the
parent vein They are therefore hard
er, smoother, more compact and OF
finer grain. Also they are of better
quality, and are of greater value.
The absolute value of q nugget can
only be determined after 1t has been
melted and refined. And this value
is based on the value Of pure gold,
and by pure" is meant free of alloy or
other metals. One cubic inch of pure
gold weighs 10,12SS3 ounces troy, and
is worth $2093S A single ounce is
worth $2067. Very few miners re-
ceive $40 .67, or even $40 an ounce
for their product; even the retorted
bricks from the quartz mines failing
to bring that price.

Successive Crops of Corn.

The modern methods Of agriculture
teach that a rotation of crops Is essen
tial for the best results, and especially
is it necessary in order to keep up soil
fertility. A correspondent asks: How
can you recommend the rotation Of
crops so strongly when experiment sta
tons grow corn year after year on the
same fieldT" Our reader evidently re-
fers to the work Of the New Jersey ex-
pertinent station, but either forgets to
refer to their methods, or else Is not
familiar with them. On this famous
farm the soil is kept in the highest
state of fertility by proper methods,
and while it Is true that corn follows
corn, it is only because clover is grown
as well, the plan being to sow crimson
clover at the last cultivation Of the
corn. which is used as green forage In
the spring, and the corn stubble Is
plowed under and the same method
again followed. If it were not for the
high fertility Of the crimson clover
each year, it would not be possible to
follow corn with corn year after year
with profit.

Look Wen to the Poultry.

Whether the young birds are being
raised to lay eggs later or for the car
cass market, they need good care dur
ing the summer. 1t is not enough that
they be turned onto the range; they
must be carefully fed, so that they
make the proper growth. This Is es-
pecially necessary with the stock that
is being raised for laying purposes.
The range is essential, but no amount
OF grass will furnish all the food tie
growing chickens need. Let them have
a liberal feed OF grain In the morning
before they are let out Of the house
and another at night when they come
homo to roost This win be all they
need If they have good range except
an abundance Of fresh clean water and
shade while on the range. If one has
q large number Of fowls, great care
must be taken not only 10 have the
poultry houses sweet and clean, but
any portion Of the grounds where they
coDgregate In any number ought also
to be kept clean, which is best done By
spadlng up the ground after scattering
lime over it Do this several times dur
ing tho summer. and there VIII be little
danger Of disease In the fiocks.

ALL RAscALs, SAYS c. B. SHAW.
Takes to Task an Audience of Well
TO Do Landowners

l dhSS " dSN du f%6GfCu(C VI NtStI
to Do Londoners.
"a great proportion of the people in
society are rascals; in fact, we are all
more or less rascals." The dictum is
George Bernard Shaw's. 1t was ut
tered in the course of an address to
well to do persons on behalf of a
crusade against the evils of lead
glazing among the pottery workers,
writes the London correspondent OF
the New York Sun.
Mr. Shaw asked his hearers if they
cared whether the plates from which
they ate had given some poor wretch
paralysis from lead poisoning, adding,
sarcastically:
IF you care you are getting on"
His faith in the real sympathy of
his hearers was evidently weak. He
| proceeded to denounce the rascality
of the employers of industry. He
said:
Even you good people who have
what you facetiously call independent
means are more or less rascals. A
great deal of the means you enjoy is
made in a rascally way, even those
| which see in so many beautiful hats
and costumes before me-"
Mr.. Shaw forcibly painted the mis-
cries of the poor and scoffed at the
life of the rich, saying they were
throwing away about 100000 year
ly on extrayagances of every sort,
much of the money, which is so badly
wanted at home, being spent abroad.
From this it was natural transition
to a Pharisaic Shawism:
Il am now in position to live the
life of pleasure lived by the idle
rich. l possess all the material con-
comitants for it, but l would Infinite
ly rather sweep a crossing. Thank
heaven, l have strength of mind
enough and sanity enough to despise
the life which riches enable me to
live"
His socialistic denunciations boxed
the compass. He dubbed politics So
ciety's most dangerous amusement,
and coming to the Chicago exposures
said it was curious to observe that
not one note of concern was uttered
in behalf of the poor wretches who
timed the meat. 1t was all for the
consumer and the beef itself. He de-
clared that these meat horrors may
mean more than has been suggested.
What if the workmen in the packing
houses purposely poisoned the meat
in an effort to wreak vengeance on
property owners for their neglect of
their brothers welfare? That was not
improbable.
When man thinks so much of the
wrongs of society that he throws a
bomb, regardless of his own life. he
must be in earnest. The features of
the man who perpetrated the Madrid
outrage were not those of a vicious
man. In his ignorant way he
thought he was doing something for
his fellow men. Il should like to
see," added Mr.. Shaw, members of
society as anxious to better the con
ditions Of our proletariat."

ANARCfIY'S DEADLY BON BS.

They Are Regarded az the Terr"r
of Modern Civilization.
The attempt upon the lives of the
King and Queen of Spain and the dis
covery of a plot in Italy against the
King of that country emphasize the
pernicious activity of anarchists. 1t
is estimated that at the present time
there must be thousands of bombs in
Russia alone-all intended for the reap

are about the size of an orange, and
they were at first-until the authorities

fruit having been. of course, carefully

Nowadays the making Of bombs is
a simple matter. Anyone who has the
slightest mechanical skill can make an
ordinary hand-grenade bomb, provided
he has the shell. In this she'll are plac-

Sold HIS Corn I'm Hogs.

One farmer engaged In the produc-
ton Of various crops suitable to both
field and orchard said that he had sold
only one load of corn In thirty-five
years. He raises many acres of corn
every year and always keeps enough
hogs to consume it. If he does not
have enough hogs of his own raising
he goes out into the country and buys
them, paying often as much as So
each. While making corn the single
food Of hogs is not advocated, yet 1t
Is believed that, when other kinds of
feed can be fed with it. it pays to feed
it upon the farm. Every bushel of
corn changed into pork should bring
back a higher price than it would If
sold iii the crude state. This is true of
course If it is fed with other feeds,
such as grass in the summer time and
clover hay and skim milk in the win
ter time.

Two Dairying DeIusions.

The objection has been made that If
ell cows were brought up to a high
standard Of production it would bring
down the price Of the products, said
w. d. Hoard, Of Wisconsin, at the late
Illinois State Farmers Institute Keep
ing poor, unfit cows for the purpose Of
holding up prices Of butter and milk is
hard on the constitution. The surplus
Of dairy products comes from the COWS
that bring no profit to their owners
Eliminate the poor cows and there will
be no surplus. Too many farmers keep
their eyes on the market They can
not affect the price one dot or title
They can if they will reduce the cost
Of production. Lots of money is to be
made by a wiser administration Of the
farm end Of the business. This is the
only end that is wholly within our con-
troll. Right here reigns supreme the
man behind the COW.
