II Is possible. according to these ex.
perts, that necessity will compel more
persons to learn to burn the smaller
sizes Of anthracite this winter-a con-
dition which they regard as very de-
sirabe.
Combinations Suggested.
Stove and nut anthracite are called
ideal fuels for heating homes. Scarcity
and cost of these fuels, the engineers
said, will restrict their use in the fu-
ture. Small sizes OF anthracite ere
recommended. Gas coke in connection
with anthracite pea or buckwheat coal
is described as an excellent combina-
tion, "as the fire will keep well but viii
give heat when required"
Block wood in conjunction with an
thracite pea or buckwheat coal is styled
"a good combina ton where wood is
available, equal to coke for producing
heat. but requiring more attention"
"Bituminous coal" the rules say,
"can be used in most furnaces designed
for hard coal The exceptions will be
found in cases where the flue passages
are small and not easily cleaned. Bi-
luminous coal demands more attention.
and unless this is given will give out
less heat Best results will be found
where the furnace Is rather large FOX

The rules, which are being distributed
generally by the society, contain minute
instructions for the management OF fur
naces in burning the more common
types of fuel.

TELLS HOW TO STOP
SMUT IN BARLEY
sBy Associated Press)

Lexington, KY, June Loose
smut of barley, held responsible
for heavy losses suffered each
year by growers OF the crop, can
be controlled by use Of the hot
water method of seed treatment,
according to results being OBJ
tanned by four Fayette county
farmers who are cooperating
with the College of Agriculture
extension division and County
Agent w. r. Gabbert in showing
the value Of the treatment.
Yields in their barley fields
will be Increased one to four
bushels an acre by reason Of the
treatment while yields in many
untreated fields in the county
will be reduced as much as four
bushels an acre, Mr.. Gabbert
said. In addition, farmers hay
Ing plots Or fields grown from
treated seed can grow barley
comparatively free from loose
smut for several years by using
seed from such fields or plots.
Mr.. Gabbert said.
Smut is especially serious ii
the county this year, more fields
being infested with it than has
been the case for a number Of
years, he added.
IN treating their seed last fall,
the four farmers soaked it III
cold water for four hours, after
which it was immersed in pre-
iininary hot bath at 10 degrees
Fahrenheit for from one to two
minutes. Following this, it i'm
r,ediately was immersed for IS
minutes in hot water at 126 de
srees Fahrenheit. The admissa-
lie range Of temperature in this
case was from 124 to 129 degrees
the hotter the water the short
er the treatment.
The treatment was made with
small amount of expense and
little extra equipment, County
Agent Gabbert pointed out. Two
or three bath tubs, plenty of hot
water, a good thermometer and
watch constituted the chief ar
ticles Of equipment. Two men
were able to treat enough seed

said. Those who co-operated in
conducting the demonstrations
were F. p. Frake, w. Clay
