SMALL PROSPECT THAT
 PEAT WILL HELP HERE

There seems to be little reason to expect that the reported find of bed of peat within the limits of the city of Norwich will prove of any value in alleviating the situation here Tn case theres should be a coal shortage.
 From what has been learned locally about the possibility of developing peat beds into a commercial asset, it is shown that this involves a large expenditure of money and it has been the experience in the peat industry that it never was worth much unless there was an immense deposit of peat to be dug .out fer commercial uses.
