FoR THE HOME BUILDER.
Several 'Don'ts" for the Person Who Is
Planning a House.

If YOU are one of the fortunate one
who are planning a house of your owI
you are doubtless beseiged by friends
and acquaintance with suggestions
House plans, like new babies. seem I,
invite suggestions from many persons
who are otherwise careful not to meddi,
in other peoples affairs
While YOU are weighing these sugges
tions and carrying your own pet the
cries into the blue prints that ultimately
guide the builder, don't forget TO have
place for your icebox where it can be
filled without having TO go across youf
kitchen. Also be sure to place it so that
you can have a drain carry off the waite.
from melting ice. warns the Omaha
Bee.
Don't forget in planning your cellar
to have a place near a cellar window
where your wood for open fires can be
dumped OF course this should be apart
from your coal bin
Don't forget to have the cellar or
laundry space so made that you can
have drain for an electric washer and
convenient electric wiring. You may
not have an electric washer now, but
you may IN time to come.
Don't forget to have space for brooms
upstairs as well as down.
Don't forget to have a cold closet In
your cellar. Much economy can be eff
fected by buying potatoes and other veg
etables in large quantities which can be
kept for months if placed in a closed off
space in your cellar
If you can arrange it, have a cedar
closet in your attic. 1t is of great as
sistance in putting winter garments
away in the summer out of the way OF
moths.
Don't forget a downstairs closet in
which to deposit coats and umbrellas
rubbers and other similar equipment.
Don't forget to arrange for enough
floor plugs. In the dining room you vii
need these for coasters. electric coffee
percolator, etc. In the living rooms you
viii need them for table lamps and il
bedrooms floor plug should be arranged
so that YOU can have a bedside light al
each bed. The cost Of additional floor
| plugs is slight-much less. in fact, thar
| the cost after the house is completed

THE CHARCOAL PIT GONE.
Old Methods Are Replaced by Wood
DiStiIIatiOn Process.


The charcoal pits which dotted the
wooded spaces generation ago. and
which could be traced by the thin film
of smoke that rose from the Smoldering
wood within, is almost a thing of the
past.
There are two general methods Of
manufacturing charcOal-the chaTrinG
of hardwood without making any at
tempt to save the escaping gases, either
in earth-covered pits or brick kilns, and,
second, as a product of the wood dstil-
latiOn industry. BY this method wood
is charred in ovens or retorts and the
gases arc collected in condensing cham
bers. This method is now being gen
orally adopted because of the value, eS-
pecialIy during war, of the chemicals
obtained.
Wood charcoal. one of the purest
forms of carbon. is of Importance prin-
cipally in the manufacture of charcoal
iron, high-grade iron, essential for Ger
tain types of castings The production
of charcoal for this purpose was for
merly distinct and important industry,
but it has gradually been superseded in
recent years by .the expansion of the
wood distillation industry. of which
charcoal Is but one of the many prod
uctS.
Other uses of charcoal are numerous
and important. The manufacture of
black gun powder and blasting powder
requires about 100000 bushels an
nually. In making crucible steel it may
be used to provide the necessary carbon,
and a small amount is used as a dry
color in paint manufacture. The poros-
itv of wood charcoal gives il the power
of absorbing certain gasses. For this
reason it is often employed as a disin-
tectant, and also has medicinal value.
This property and its power to remove
coloring matter from solutions make
charcoal valuable as a filtering medium.
since it removes Objectionable organic
mattcr and to some extent softens hard
water. Charcoal as a domestic fuel has
in large part been superseded by gas,
electricity and kerosene.
When a hard wood, such as oak.
beech or maple. is heated to a high tenn
perature in an alright container. the
wood, instead of being consumed. decom-
poses. and gases are given off which if
collected. and condensed yield pyroligi..
nous acid wood alcohol and small
amounts of tarry oils and tar, and the
charcoal is left as residue in the CON
tainer. The pyroliginOus acid when neu-
tralized with lime yields acetate of lime.
from which acetic acid. acetone and
other valuable chemicals may be derived.
The chemicals obtained as bv-prod-
uctS in the distillation of wood are so
numerous and valuable that they are
now, in the aggregate. worth much more
than the charcoal, SO that the produc-
tion of charcoal has become to a great
extent subordinated to the production
IF chemicals. This was particularly
true during the war. when the demand
for these chemicals was very urgent on
account of their use in the manufacture
Of war materials.
In 1899, 27000 bushels of charcoal
was made by the older method. while
the distillation product was only 17.15O
bushels; in 1919, $3.50 bushels were pro-
duced in the old way. and $500 BUSH
els by the wood-distillation process

Marshall A. Relmer said last ight that

have good idea of who the Offenders
are and that they are working on the
