There is more value In coal ashes
than is generally realized by tbs
farmer. For the amelioration of heavy
clay land they are exceptionally valu-
able. This is particularly SO with the
ashes of soft coal. as such usually are
reduced almost TO dust
Coal ashes have a fertilizer value.
This opinion. however, is not held gen
orally. The coal beds contain phos-
phorous, potash, nitrogen and lime, as
we'll as the other less important ingre-
dients. When the original trees out
OF which were formed the coal beds
were reduced to coal the mineral Gle
ments remained In them, and cOnss-
quently those same elements go with
the ashes. One authority says tina.
the reason why people have formed an
idea that coal ashes contain no fertil-
ny Is that the trees nov grown have
In them less carbon than those Ia the
old days and thus the percentage OF
other elements 70 carbon Is probably
greater nov than then which gives a
larger value 10 our wood ashes but
does not annihilate the value Ia the
coal ashes Ashes can be used 10 ad-
vantage without sitting, but largo

CO. PAVES

In the report Of the council meeting

The resolution passed by the council
only relieved the company from put

These threats, perhaps. were the

Governor Stuart at Harrisburg was
petitioned by the labor men to take ac-
ton.
What the outcome win be is hard
tc predict. Determined moves for ar
bitration have been made before In
tie course Of the struggle which start
ed nearly four weeks ago, and have
failed. Each day, however, seemingly
brings the situation nearer a crisis.
An excellent Sign was the good order
which prevailed throughout the city
yesterday Not until late last night
was there any sort Of an outbreak in
any quarter Of the city Coming out
Of a meeting, a section Of the crowd
displayed a turbulent spirit and pass
ing trolley cars were stoned. The po-
lice by show OF force and the dis
play Of revolvers subdued the demon
stration before much mischief was
done. Nobody was seriously injured
and there were no arrests.
