PREPARING TURF FOR FUEL
New Method, Said to Have Originated
In Russia, May Result in ReIiev-
ing Shortage.

new method Of drying turf to re-
NeVe the serious fuel shortage in Fin
land has been put in operation in vari-
Gus Scandinavian countries. The new
method was invented by engineers
working under orders from the Rus
Sian soviet government, to find a more
iabor-saving method Of preparing turf
as fuel for the great central power sta
tion near Moscow, the process being
made known In Finland through an es-
Gaping engineer. The Fundamental
principle Of the process Is quite sim
pie. The raw turf in the swamp, by
powerful jet Of water under a pressure
OF 20 atmospheres. Is freed from all
old roots and changed to thin mud.
This Is pumped out on drying field
and spread in layers. When sufficient
ly dry 1t IS cut into bricks Of uniform
size by means of tractor. The turf
pump Is constructed like an ordinary
water turbine, is reversible with aid Of
electric motor, is equipped with a cut
ting apparatus which completes the
work Of the water Jet, and can be
raised or lowered as the surface Of the
mud varies. The entire equipment is
mounted on car which can be pushed
forward or backward on rails along the
line of work.-ScientiAc American.

NECKTlE HALTED A ROMANCE.
Lovers Who Had Been Apart for
Forty Years Made Up When Man
Wore Woman's Present.

Forty years ago John Emmons and
Charity Timmons Of Bishopville, DEL.
were twenty years old and sweet
hearts. With her own hands Miss
Timmons made necktie as gift for
her young gallant. The evening of
the day he received it Emmons put it
on. He didn't like the colors and re-
placed it.
AS usual, he visited Miss Timmons
that evening, according to Selby-
vile Del.) dispatch to the philade-
phia Ledger. 1t was nice summer
night. The moon revealed that he
was not wearing loves token and Miss
Itmmons demanded the reason.
ITS too loud," replied the youth.
do you mean you will never wear
1tT Then you don't love me-" sobbed
the girl, and she went into the house.
Ihat apparently was the end Of the
romance. Emmons went to Portland,
Ore, and prospered. AS the owner Of
a Dig department store in the far
northwestern city, he returned to
Bishopville last Christmas for a visit.
1t was Inevitable that he should
meet his former sweetheart in the vii
lage. Soon each learned that the old
love would not die !; that each had con-
sidered the other the only mate and
that neither had married.
or course, Emmons proposed. Miss
Timmons did not refuse him, but she
bought tie as nearly like the one
that started nll the trouble rs she
could find. Then, when he wore it
without tlinching, she coyly murmured
yes" And so they were married the
other evening.
