How Tastes Differ.

That we 90 lOt eat as heartily as we
did a few centuries ago, is proved by
reading old menus. In the Fifteenth
century. and in England and CONT
mental Europe. such meats as crane.
heron. peacock. seal. swan. porpoise
and whale were, If not everyday dish
es, at least common In their appear
ance on the tables Of men, and by the
prosperous and rich II was not con-
sidered q great extravaganza to serve
the tongues of larks and peacocks.
1t is curious thing, or at least 1t
must seem curious to some that the
Tusc ms, while rejecting mutton as
food. will eat heartily Of hedgehog.
They may have focks Of sheep. hut
they do not eat them. They will eat
the flesh Of their herds of cattle. but
they prefer, II Is said. the flesh Of
oxen that have worked hard.

ciples of loyalty and patriotism that
was breathed into the body polite by
our forefathers. 1t proved good for

good now and will ever be- want you
to read with emphasis the words in
capital letters, and if you believe in
my integrity and ability, do you need
or desire stronger pledge for the
i protection of your legitimate rights?
Is it not safer and saner to be guild
ed by the principles enunciated
than to blindly pledge this, that or the
others? A man who IS unworthy OF
your confidence on pledge such as
have announced is unworthy of a
public trust. Do you know of any
better way to conserve and preserve
public interests than to be guided in
this service, by the RECORDS, by
EXPERIENCE and by INTELLI-
GENT PUBLIC OPINION If so
it would be revelation and appropri-
ate. The fellow who is egotistical as
to think he can make good, just and
equitable laws off-hand, like making
tracks in the sand, is unworthy of
having public trust committed into
his hands. regard it very serious
responsibility for it to be made my
duty to create and make laws by
which my fellow citizens must be
governed. In view of this fact, do
you blame me for saying that l shall
not commit myself to the repeal or
enactment of any measure which l
have not had time and opportunity to
study and consider in the beneficent
light of truth as revealed by the

This witness was followed by a
number of others, all Of whom had
known the prisoner at various times
during the last ten years. All of them
tcld practically the same story-that
they knew nothing whatever against
his character, but that they were
aware of his habit Of walking in his
sleep. Almost invariably, they de-
clared, he would walk downstairs and
attempt to open the door of a room
on the floor below the cne on which
he had retired.
Here, with gesture which indi-
Gated that he had completely proven
his case, Rufus Choate closed for
the defense and, in spite of the fact
that the prosecution attempted to
riddle the testimony with ridicule
and the charge of irrelevancy, the
prisoner was acquitted and the ques-
ton as to how Mrs. Bickford came
to her death is still unanswered.

DIVERGENT PROPHECIES

In a letter to Frank G. Heaton, ed
itor CT the Tampa (Florida) Tribune,
| former President Woodrow Wilson
expresses full confidence in the ulti-
mate victory of his policies. He even
thinks that the voters of this coun-
try have already seen how grossly
they were misled and have already
turned their faces toward the truth"
He declares:
THE task of 1920 is to so mobilize
our intellectual and moral forces as
to assure a complete defeat of the
parry which has done the country so
serious disservice, and to win again
for our Government the leadership in
the affairs of the world of which the
Republicans for the time being have
confident this can and viii be done.
My pulses are quickened by the pros
pect Of battle.
IN essence this is prophecy
Equally prophecy is the interview
given out by Secretary of Commerce
Herbert Hoover at Palo Alto, CAL:
The Republican Presidential candi-
date in 1924 obviously will be War
ren G. Harding. Moreover. by that
time the public will be highly appre-
ciative Of the sanity and progressive
| character of the policies that viii
have brought this country through
| the reconstruction period
Which Of the two prophets has the
genuine inspiration of the soothsayer? ?
We cannot tel. Manifesdy the in
spiration in each case comes from
sources transcending the logic, ex-
perience and revealed facts. We say
this with a reasonable regard for the
reasonable significance of the Novem-
Der election returns.
A turning of the voters faces to-
ward the Wilson politics is not TO be
assumed from the personal unpopu-
larity OF Lodge in Massachusetts GER
tainly not from the indorsement of
James A. Reed in Missouri. or from
the overwhelming defeat of Wilson

On the other hand. Mr. Hoover's
prediction IS so unfortunately dis
seEant with the prevailing sentiment

PEAT MAY BE POPULAR
FUEL FOR THE WINTER

The Minnesota Mines and Expert
ment Station announces the status of
peat should the present coal short
age become acute. The announce
ment is also made that now is the
time to prepare the peat for win
ter use. Prof. Appleby and Prof.
Christensen of the Station make the
following statement:
The sloughs, boys, and marshes
of Minnesota contain a brown to
black fibrous soil known as peat
This usually varies in thickness from
the edge to the center of the bog
As a rule it is thicker and of
better fuel quality toward the mid
die of a bog. The further down
the better the fuel quality, though
near the bottom it is usually mixed
with sand and clay and is not so
good.
Boys that have been drained for
the purpose of improving adjacent
lands for farming offer the most sat
isfactory sources for mining peat.
The simplest method is to select
place on drained bog where the
peat is at least four feet thick.
With sharp fiat ditching spade
O1S 0OWA DIS Lar DIS pEdcItCdDl0.
Prepare a bunk-ike face from
which blocks of the peat may be
cut with ease-blocks slightly larg-
er than the ordinary building brick.
An old fashioned hay knife such
as is used for cutting stacked hay
is a good implement for making the
vertical, or up-and-down, cuts. The
horizontal cuts may be made with
sharp-edged ditching spade.
The bricks should be stood on
edge, with air spaces between and
allowed to dry. After they have
dried in part, they should be stood
on end for further drying.
If the peat is not fibrous, as may
be the case well below the surface,
and crumbles too easily for hand
ling, it may be mixed with water
and kneaded into the consistency
of ordinary mortar, and then spread
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1922-10-13

out on the smooth surface Of the
bog to depth of about four inches
and allowed to drain. After it has
drained off, it may be cut into
bricks, to be handled as the bricks
of more fibrous peat.
A peat fire is started as a coal
fire is started. When thoroughly
dried, peat burns with a compar-
atively short flame, and if the draft
is closed after the peat is well ig-
nited the fire will last much longer
than corresponding wood or coal
fire. Peat has about the same heat
value, weight for weight, as air
dried wood.
With moderate draft peat will
produce an intensely hot fire such
as is suitable for all kinds Of DOM
este and power purposes.
There is still time to prepare fuel
from peat for the coming winter.
The Mines Experiment Station
will be glad to make analyses and
render assistance possible, free of
charge, to any who may be interest
ed in drawing on the states peat
supplies for their winters fuel.
Any such persons are requested to
address Mines Experiment Station,
