but its general use for heating and
lighting dates back probably less
than thirty years. Its value for fuel
and light is due almost entirely to
the fact that it is made up largely
of compounds containing the same
elements which make coal, wood, oil,
etc, useful as fuels. The two ele-
ments referred to are carbon and
hydrogen, both capable Of burning,
(uniting with the oxygen of the air)
and both giving out much heat in
the process. A solid material like
carbon If not consumed two rapidly
gives out light as well as heat, the
light coming from the white-hot par
ticles not yet burned. Such particles
are heated to whiteness by others
which have passed to white hot
stage and are being actually consum-
ed. Since hydrogen is a gas, it con.
tains no solid parllcles q be heated
white hot, and since it is an element
it cannot be decomposed yielding
to such solid PARTICLES. Hence, the
function of this substance is entirely
heat giving though of course its
combustion contributes to the lumi-
Mostly OF the flame indirectly by
heating some of the carbon particles
to whiteness. Methods for compar-
ing the calorific (heating) value of
different fuels have been devised by
chemists and physicists. The appar-
atus is not particularly complicated
nor the experiments very difficult of
execution. There are also standard
experimental methods for compar-
ing the tght giving value of different
illuminants.
OF half dozen or more important
fuel gases acetylene is the only one
which has higher heating and light
ing value, volume for volume, than
natural gas; and while acetylene is
comparatively inexpensive and re-
quires specially constructed burners
when used for illumination, natural
gas is nearly always cheap. if avail
able at all. and it calls for no special
form of burner. The most abundant
and most important constituent of
natural gas is methane or marsh
gas. which consists of hydrogen and

Question at Fort Worth.

City officials of Fort Worth, TEXAS,
are in a quandary over the construc-
tion placed on contract with the
Texas company for the city's fuel oil
requirements. The contract is for a
minimum of $4,000 and a maximum
of 12S,O00 barrels in one year. Since
making the contract, there has been
a slump in the price of liquid fuel
and some of the city councilmen
want to take only the minimum guam
tity from the Texas company and
buy the remainder from other COM
panies. Council has had legal advice
from two sources and one says the
city may make a further contract
and the other says it must not buy
from any other company during the
life of the Texas company contract
