OF CORN AS FUEL, ' •- l* Has Been Burned for Many Years In Western Farming Districts. Substitutes for coal have for many Tears commanded attention, and es pecially so during the past eight or nine month® in the United States, with coal prices at abnormal figures, as a result of the anthracite miner®’ strike last year. Peat and briquetted sawdust, wood, oi! and many other substances have keen under consid eration, and among them also corn, this last particularly having been spoken of as something quite new, though, -a® a matter of fact, corn has for a long time been used as fuel in the farming districts of the West ern sections of the United States, and that, too, with very 'satisfactory results. In a. general way it was recognized there that when corn was abundant and cheap mnd cdal was expensive, the 'former made a cheaper fuel than the latter, although no scientific de~ termination of their relative effi ciency had been made until a short 'time ago, when tests were made by the Department of Agriculture of the University of Nebraska. These show ed, among other things, that of corn, which, if burned, will yield from 2‘2.~ "512,000 ‘to 45,024,000 unite, not count ing the heat that couid be obtained 'from the stalk. "Since a ton of good coal will give up from about 20.000,- 000 to 20,000.000 units an acre of ground in each year capable of pro ducing fiiel which is equal to Tram 0.87 'or 1.28 to 1.74 or 2.56 tons of coal. The stalk will probably in crease this amount by one-fourth or one-third. The exuerletice gained from ’boflsr tests with com fuel made It appear doubtful whether corn would be -prac ticable fuel "for the generation of power, unless it were burned m some special furnace that would 'insure the perfect combustion of the volatile matter which forms so large a per centage of the whole corn, and wuich is driven off at a comparatively low "heat, gome form of automatic'Stoker would also be desirable, since the corn burns' rapidly and must be fre quetly tired, making the work of the fireman very arduous, and at the same time tending to cause incom plete combustion by the excess of -cold air entering through the fire door. Undoubtedly, com may, at times, he a cheap and economical fuel for domestic uoe. It is cleaner and more easily handled than coal, and contains but a very small amount of ash. It bums rapidly with an hr 'tense'heat, and this is apt to be de structive to the cast iron linings of the Stove. Here, again, therefore, some special form of firebox, that will not be injured by the heat, and that will utilize as much of the heat as possible, should be used. —Cassiet’s Magazine. Too Small for Its Age. A gentleman who had employed an -old ep.'.ared carpenter to do a piece of :rathejf delicate cabinet work for him was {pleased beyond his expectations with the result. Wishing to show his satisfaction, he —after paying the price the old man asked —teok from the sideboard a bot tle of extraordinarily fine whiskey that had just been sent him and poured a JLittle inte a glass. “Uncle,'” :he inquired, “have ;»ou ever tasted whiskey fifty years oid?” “No, sah, I never has,” replied the •:Qld darky, ;his voice trembling with anticipation. “Well, try that, then,” said his em ployer, handing him the glass, “and t-eli me what you think of it.” The old fellow received it reverent ly,, took one kip, and raised his eyes in ecstasy. “Oh, sah! flat am sho’ly de fines’ bev’rage dis chile evah taste. But.” with an anxious- glance at the very Slight quantity in the glass, “don’t you t’ing, sah, it am gus’ a little small for its age!” It is, perhaps, needless to add that gentle criticism had the desired effect. —October Lippincott’s.
