"You sometimes cannot always TELL"
remarked H. M. Mccartney, of the
western Pacific engineering depart
ment, according to the San Francisco
Herald. "The people from whom you
are prepared to expect the most are
frequently deficient and disappointing.
I met a lady from Kentucky some time
ago. She was a school teacher. We
chatted on various topics, and, among
other things, she asked me:
Whom do you consider the great.
est man Kentucky ever produced?'
"'There can't be any dispute about
that / replied. Abraham Lincoln

Lincoln, you know, came from ILL.,

GAS USED UNDER LIME KILNs.
Innovation by Connecticut Company
10 a Success.

The New England Lime company,
OF Winstead, Conn.,, asserts that 1t Is
the first to introduce gas as fuel for
lime burning. The method Is pro-
nounced an entire success. The grow
ing scarcity of wood fuel led to the
discovery Of gas as substitute for
wood. ind the company no longer con-
siders the gas method an experiment.
The edacacy and reliability OF gas
have been demonstrated beyond q
doubt. Had it been impossible to find
q substitute for wood, said member
of the company, it would have meant
tho restriction and perhaps the total
abandonment aof the business. Gas
fires are absolutely clean at all times
no clinkers and no cinders-and the
lime produced h. much whittier than
that burned by wood. Gas also pro-
duces 4 more intense heat, and conse-
quently increases the capacity of the
kilns. The daily output at the COM
pany's kilns Is Increased from 80 bar
rels per kiln to 100 barrels, or total
Of 700 barrels daily.
