Peat Briqu6ttes Used
For Mexico Fuel.

VOID Comes from the City of Mexico
that an American company has under
enVthea, manufacture Of briquettes
froIl peat. The increasing difficulty Of
supplying the capital city of the Re-
public with wood from neighboring
forests whence its fdel has come since
the days of Fo: 'cy, n led to this pro-
Ject OF utli.ll.!e ..os.ss of peat which
have long been known to exist ia the
vicinity.
Eighty years ago Humboldt described
magnificent forests within reach of
the City of Mexico. To day the region
supports second growth of little value.
The change has been brought about by
wood cutters and charcoal burners who
have stripped the land and left it to
reforest itself if it could, or to re-
lapse into waste. Thus neglected, the
land could not grow timber to meet the
demands upon it, and the woodcutters
have little or nothing near to cut.
Fortunately large bogs of peat are
within reach. 1t has never been much
used for fuel because the Mexicans
never took time to learn how to burn it.
The company which has undertaken to
manufacture the bog fuel into bri-
quettes has made large investments in
land and machinery.

Potatoes, Squashes, and pumpkins may
be grown successfully by keeping up a
constantly successful fight against pota
to beetles and squash bugs. This means
to battle almost daily with the pests
from tile time the potatoes are up until
the middle Of August, and from the
time the squash plants are up until the
squashes are ripe. To describe methods
of fighting these pests require volumes;
but you use your ingenuity in fighting
them. I preferred to kill them with
clubs.
Grasshoppers are the worst enemies to
field crops, but by keeping plenty OF
poultry, the grasshoppers will be kept
