IRENE efforts of all available anthra-

the signing Of the arnistice the Fuel
Administration was obtaining the fur
Tough of anthracite miners from the
army to as great an extent as possible
In order to meet the situation.
Few consumers have sufficient an
thracite coal to last them through the
entire winter. If you are one of those
fortunates 1t is incumbent upon you
to make the supply in your cellar go
as many months as possible in order
that less well supplied households will
not have to do without.
Aside from the most extreme econ
omy in the use Of domestic sizes Of an
thracite coal. the Fuel Administration
urges the following measures:
The use Of No. 1 Buckwheat coal to
supplement the larger sizes. Duck
wheat size cannot be used alone.)
The use Of wood to as great an ex-
tent as possible.
The sitting Of ashes to reclaim the
considerable amount Of half-burned or
entirely unburned coal falling through
CRATES.
Weather stripping of doors and win
dows so that less fuel will be required
for heating.

These are the two chief appeals in
the campaign now being launched by
the United States Fuel Administration
to bring about a considerable use Of
wood to replace coal in states where
domestic fuel is scarce. OF course, if
you cut wood you do not have to buy
coal and if you have wood piled up you
will not worry over a coal shortage,
such as is possible through the ''flu"
having cut down the production of an
thracite coal.
New England, IN particular, has
much wood available within easy reach
of large centers of population. The
"Cut-a-Cord" Club of Belmont. six
miles from Boston, was one Of many
similar organizations which proved We
hicles for wholesome days Of outdoor
sport and happy social evenings.
The Forestry service will cooperate
with the Fuel Administration, through
state administrators, this winter in To-
eating available supplies of standing
timber and seeing that trees more val
liable for other purposes will not be
felled for firewood.
IL there is not "Cut-a-Cord0 club
In your community, why not organize
one2
Here are some woodmen's proverbs
from the Forestry Service:

| a cord of hardwood has a fuel value
equal to two-thirds of a ton of hard
coal.
Stumps should be cut as low as pos
sible to avoid waste and save future
trouble.
All wood large enough to be made
into stove wood should be used. Split
wood small enough so that one man
can load it on a wagon.
Pine should be split smaller than
hardwood so that it may dry out quick
". Hardwood burns fairly well even
when green.
III cutting original growth forests,
utilize old trees which are not fit for
lumber.
Cut small trees Of the poorer species.
Cut all dead, diseased, dead-topped,
and otherwise inferior material.
The wood lot will be the better for
the removal of old trees which have
stopped making growth, and of SCARED
trees and stunted growths.
Leave trees that are more valuable
for lumber, ties, or other salable prod
ucts than they are for cordwood.
Leave your thrifty trees of the bet
ter species below 10 inches In diameter
for the future crop.
Pile wood so that air can circulate
freely through the pile.
