Burn Shelled Corn In This Biomass Furnace A BETTER ALTERNATIVE The corn burning furnace has many advantages over wood and coal heat. The large storage bin holds up to 14 bushels of fuel, which is automati cally fed into the combustion chamber as needed There’s no need to load the furnace several times a day. The use of corn also eliminates the bark mess, insects, splinters, and handling problems connected with the use of wood fuel, and the dust and dirt from coal UL Approved Dealer Inquires Welcome LMF Manufacturing 601 Woods Ave., Lock Haven, PA 17745 570-748-7080 www.americasheat.com >ii<'i>'>'c''.Jl)naHilmfAaimrioaaheaLsain, Lancaster Farming, Saturday, October 12, 2002-Al7 Four States Livestock Monday Sale Hagerstown, Md.
