TELLS HOW FIRES WERE
STARTED WITHOUT MATCHES

Although not vet an old man, John
7. Sanders has had varied tastes Of
early day life in the West. When
he was residing with his parents In
Oregon. when strip of lad. he
remembers the first matches that
we're shipped into the state. This
WAS about thirty-six years ago. The
matches were made Of y little sulphur
placed on the end Of stick much
larger than the ones now In use.
They came In bunches of about
thirty-fve in bunch and the sui.
phur end Of the match was fastened
so that they must be pulled apart.
They sold for twenty-five cents
bunch, almost one cent per match.
They were looked upon as being
very valuable and great care was OK.
ercised by the housewife not to use
more than was really necessary.
When a bunch WAS purchased she
would wrap them / n piece Of silk
or tissue paper and lay them aside.
Sc that not many matches would be
used in month, or any given time,
a great deal of wood was burned. in
fact the fire was seldom allowed to
die out. A large log of green oak or
some other wood was thrown into the
fireplace SO that 1t would not burn
too fast and yet keep the fire burning.
Before matches we're placed on the
market they used a piece Of steel and
a piece Of flint rock to make a spark.
This spark was struck into piece of
rolled cotton through which plenti-
iful quantity Of gunpowder had been
sprinkled, aud when tine spark came
in contact with the powder Are
WAS produced.
