BUILDING ACTIVITY
MAY BRAVE WINTER
Coburn Advises Home Owners
to Keep Houses Repaired.

Because of the shortage of build
ing resulting from war conditions, the
building business in Indianapolis has
been usually brisk throughout the
year and, according to A Coburn
owner and manager of the Michigan
Lumber Company. $50 e. st. Clair
St.. there will be a continuance of
operation through the late fall and
winter. Even If the weather is such
as to prohibit outdoor work, Mr. Co.
burn said labor skilled in building
work will find plenty Of indoor work
to keep them busy. Repair work has
fallen badly in arrears because of the
failure to get workmen. Men have
been tied up in new construction and
were unable to give short jobs their
attention.
Repair of homes should not be
neglected, for 1t means depreciation
of the speediest l1snd. People should
begin now to take an invoice of all
the repairs they need and arrange
with competent worl1men to take care
Of their work as soon ss they are
through with new construction.
1.-THE price of lumber" said Mr..
Ccburn. has remained steady and
we cannot predict any great change
In the near future. Although many
homes are now being built OF brick
and other such materials, 1t has been
shown that about 90 per cent OF the
homes are built of wood. There seems
to be no let-up In the demand for
lumber.

COKE FURNISHES
BEST HEAT FOR
MODERN HOMES
Citizens Gas Company Off,
CiaI Says Coal Waste Is
Removed in Ovens.

In buying the years fuel supply
1t is the desire Of the purchaser TO
get the most possible heat.giving ma
terial for the least amount OF money.
To do this it is necessary for him to
remember that the only heat-giving
element In coal is the carbon.
Indianapolis by-product coke con
tains the carbon of coal from which
IL is made. The constituents of BIZ
luminous coal are volatile matter,
fixed carbon, ash and sulphur The
volatile matter is driven off during
the carbonizlng process in the coke
oven. The selection of coal for the
production of coke is very important
for the coke will be only as good as
the coal that goes into it. The Goals
most suitable for use by by-product
coking plants are found in Southern
West Virginia. eastern Kentucky and
southwestern Virginia. The high vol
atile and Pocahontas are finely pull
verified before being charged into the
coke oven, so that they may be init
mately miexd, thus assuring a uniform
product. for the Pocahontas coal adds
strength to the coke, the mixture
containing from 25To to 800 of Poca-
hontas for that reason. After the vol
atile matter (smoke) is eliminated from
the coal the residue remaining in the
oven is coke, containing about 900
as compared with about 1870 carbon
IN the highest grades of Pocahontas.
About threefourths of ton of coke
Is obtained from each ton Of coal
charged in the oven.
Compared with the fixed carbon of
90 per cent found in Indianapolis by
product coke. 1t behooves the con
sumner to remember that typical Poca-
hontas coal has only rs per cent and
typical Indiana coal has only SO per
cent.
The advantages derived from burn
iEG coke have been systematically set
forth by f. c. Rastenburg, assistant
secretary of the Citizens Gas Com
rany:
1. 1t is light and easy to handle.
2. 1t is dustless and sootless.
3. It is more efficient than either
anthracite or bituminous coal because
it contains only a trace Of volatile
matter, It Is low in ash and is entirely
free from stones and slate; hence it is
higher in fixed carbon, the only fuel
value Of coal as burned under the con-
ditions obtaining in the household
furnace.
4. 1t is produced from choice by
product coking Goals carefully Sc
lected.
5. It ignites readily, holds fire a
longer time. and is easy to regulate,
therefore assuring uniform tempera-
ture.
6. 1t does not belch smoke out Of
the fire door or clog up the fiues with
SCOT which may catch fire and en-
danger the house.
