SITTING furnace,
stove, CRATE ASH
SAVES MUCH FUEL
u. s. Fuel Administration Urges
Reclamation of All Waste
to Aid Fuel Situation.

thousands Of tons Of coal can be
reclaimed and proportionate dollars
saved In fuel bills IL the house
holders Of the nation will adopt the
simple, homely method of sitting
their ashes. About FIVE bucket
fuls Of coal are thrown away in the
ashes each week by the wasteful
householder. Each bucketful weighs
about nineteen pounds, and fresh nut
coal sold by the bucketful costs about
10 cents each. If this coal is reclaimed
by sitting the ashes, 1t would repre-
sent a saving of so cents a week and
conserve just so much coal for the
dealer to supply other householders.
The United States Fuel Administra-
ton gives the following directions for
retaining coal from ashes:
How to Sft Ashes.
Shake the sitter until all the dust.
like particles fall through. You will
then have left in your sitter a mix
ture Of black and white-covered pieces
OF coal and probably a few clinkers
and pieces Of stone.
Pick out and throw away all stone.
DO not throw away clinkers unless
they are thoroughly burned. Coal
will often fuse In such manner that
the part in the center is not burned.
Break clinkers apart, and If there is
any black substance in them it Is
carbon, and they can be burned over
again.
White chunks generally contain a
large amount Of carbon. though their
covering might be soft and have the
appearance Of ashes. Do not throw
them away.
Coal thus recovered should be
spread on the ground and sprinkled
with water This will open the seams
In the coal, and when 1t Is placed In
the heater the fire will reach and ig-
mite the unused carbon.
1t is better not to mix the coal thus
reclaimed with fresh ceal. Keep 1t In
a separate pile.
Reclaimed coal should generally be
used on red hot FIRE, although It can
also be used In banking a fire at night.

Hydraulic Cartridges.

1t Is often difficult and sometimes
dangerous to use ordinary explosives
for mining and excavating in confined
spaces, fact that has led to the de-
velopment Of the hydraulic mining
cartridge.
The cartridge consists of a steel
cylinder containing numerous small
pistOns that move at right angles to
the axis of the cylinder and expand
when water is injected into them with
hand pump. After drilling a deep
enough hole the wOrkmen insert the
cylinder and then set to work at the
hand pump.
The tiny pistons expand until their
free extremities bear against the mass
of rock with constantly increasing
force and the rock is gradually frac-
tured under tremendous pressure. The
operation, 1t Is said, Is not only cheap
er than the ordinary blast but disin-
tegrates a larger area Of rock.

them refuge and prosperity. These
are the human vampires of the COM
munity, state and nation and are
heart and soul, blood and mind in
sympathy with the Germany of to-
day. They cannot be trusted and
are outcasts among all law abiding
people and menace to good gov
eminent, and a problem that this
nation must eventually take care Of.
They do not know what liberty is,
they do not know what freedom is.
Their souls are so stepped in that
German kulture of Knight is right"
and the greed of gain that they
would steal the linen from the sac
ramental table and sell it for old
rags. God may pity them but He
could not trust them in the New
Jerusalem for they would swipe the
golden streets and steal the gems in
the pearly gates. And it is this
people, stepped in all the selfishness
of that intense brutal kulture of
might is right, that now beaten
whimpers for mercy-just like the
beasts of the field. 1t is such a
people that has caused 100000
peaceful citizens to lose their lives
that right might prevail; destroyed
billions of dollars of property and
now they cry for easy terms of a
peace settlement. Germany should
"pay to the limit of her capacity"
And such a people-God judge them
we cannot.

The incoming legislature has
something to consider besides the
proverbial "dog bill" The statutes
are filled with good laws; laws that
if impartially enforced would make
any community lawabiding and
peaceful, but they are seldom en-
forced, and when they are it is in
such manner as to pervert Justice
Local officials are not energetic in
performing their duties in far too
many instances as touching the
home people. Whenever there are
strangers within the gates" who
go wrong they never lack law or
evidence to "soak 'em." This condi-
ton is brought about by there being
so many good fellows" on the Of
fetal visiting list, made SO by dire
and devious methods not on the
statute books. Now what is needed
is an enforcement of law supervised
and directed by state officials not
touched by local business connect
ion. The civil life of a community
never rises above the prevailing sem
timent of its local officials as to
their method Of enforcing the law.
There should be state supervision
that is more result-getting than
what now obtains.

Lloyd George is right when he
says Germany must pay to the limit
of her capacity" They should not
only pay, but be made to bear the
burden of this payment for gener-
atoms, so that possibly the faith
taught them that Knight is right"
may become eliminated from their
character, ard they as nation be
re-created. Not until that time
comes can they be counted as
people of the civilized world or
trusted at conferences of nations.
Germanyhas made herself an outcast
nation. AS the Jews in rejecting
Christ became an outcast and des-
pissed people, so Germany in reject
ing the laws of civilization and all
calls of humanity has become an
outcast and despised nation. German
kulture has been turned to barbar-
ism far SURPRISING the cruelties of
dark ages. There are people of Ger
man descent who have come to this
country and become good citizens,
who love the freedom and liberty of
our land and whose sons have fought
and died on foreign soil beside the
sons of the forefathers who built up
on these shores a government of
human rights that is today shaping
the destiny of the world. These are
true American citizens-God bless
them. But there are in this fair
land thousands of sneaking, scheem-
ing Germans, worshippers of Kaiser
ism, who have plotted to establish the
rule of might on the shores of Amer
lea. The government has caught
many of them and they have been
interned, but there are others who
have got by, yet have done all they
could to aid the German cause by
seditious utterances and trying to
persuade boys not to enter the SER
vice of their country, and offering
to get them by because they had a
"pull." All the time they were try
ing to serve the Fatherland they
were posing as patriotic citizens,
giving to the Red Cross and every
other cause where "Jakey" could get
public notice aof his generosity. (O
These are the people who left their
native land to escape service in the
army of that imperial majesty they
set up in their American homes as
their idol; these are the people who
came in poverty and we gave them
bread; these are the people who by
scheeming, cheating, trickery and
law breaking have accumulated a
competence, and now have tried to
strike down the country that gave
