PEAT IN MAINE.
Fuel situation Directs New Attention
to Valuable Deposits.

For years occasional references have
been made to tho supply of peat in Maine,
but not great deal of attention has been
paid, owing largely to the esse with which
a plentiful supply OF coal was obtained
and the comparative low cost and avail
ability OF wood.
Now vastly different condition exists.
This year, and probably for some years to
come, our supply of coal will be limited,
and owing to scarcity of labor, wood will
not only be high, but in many localities
extremely difficult to get.
For these reasons peat becomes a more
important subject for consideration. The
peat deposits are ample; the people need
only be educated in the preparation and
use OF peat.
Under test conditions in Europe, in
comparison with steam coal of good
quality, peat, when ared under boilers,
has been found to be worth about Ave
ninths OF ton OF good coal Under the
usual methods of firing, however, there is
likely to he greater loss OF heat units
from the coal than from the peat, espec-
dried machine peat
The mschine-dried peat does not clinker
or give of any volatile matter In the form
of black smoke. 1t burns up completely,
leaving only powdery-like ash which is
small in bulk compared with the usual
fuel. It makes a good fuel bed in the fur
mace, and burns with long, bright, clear
fame, without smoke or suIphurous gases
so that neither hues, CRATES nor boiler
plates are corroded or clogged.
In burning peat, it is OF advantage not
to stir the fire, " hich causes the fuel to
break up aud drop through the CRATES, or
to give it too much draft, for then it
burns with too great intensity.
! As domestic fuel, peat is clean, can be
made to burn slowly or rapidly as desired
| by regulating the drafts, is easily han
died, and is so efficient that it commands
a ready sale at good prices to all who have
had an opportunity to try it.

Etiquette.

There is an ancient saying that zone
should never speak of rope to man
whose father was hanged" and there
Is great deal implied in those few
words. In effect. Is meant that subjects
of conversation should be carefully in
troduced where persons present are
not known to certain extent; that is,
that nothing untoward has happened,
publicly, ut least, that would make
any unusual subject apply too openly
