ECONOMIZE IN FUEL.
Scientific Rules and Regulations for
Saving Coal.
Last week the “Watchman” told of
the scarcity of anthracite coal in Belle-
fonte and an illustration of just how
scarce it is was given on Saturday
when the Bellefonte Fuel and Supply
company received a car load of chest-
nut. So many orders were on the
company’s books that the car load was
divided among approximately two
hundred customers and no new orders
would be taken. This is only a sam-
ple of what conditions will probably be
like all winter and it is up to every-
body to economize as much as pos-
sible in the use of coal. For this rea-
son the following scientific rules and
regulations for saving coal in the
home, prepared by L. P. Breckenridge,
professor of mechanical engineering at
Yale, and chairman of the fuel division
of the American Society of Mechanic-
al Engineers and E. H. Lockwood, as-
sistant professor of mechanical engi-
neering at Yale, are very timely. The
regulations have been approved by the
fuel division and are as follows:
PART I. PREPARATION OF
EQUIPMENT.
See that the grates are in good or-
der.
Seal air leaks in ash pit and around
clean-out doors.
Cover steam and water pipes to pre-
vent unnecessary radiation.
Provide suitable clean-out tools for
boiler flues.
Prepare for supplementary heat in
mild weather, fire-places, gas logs,
kerosene heaters, ete.
Prevent air leakage as far as possi-
ble by weather strips and storm win-
dows.
Provide for re-circulating air in hot
air furnaces by convenient slides in
the pipes.
Arrange coal bins so that two kinds
of fuel can be kept separate if desired.
PART II. KINDS OF FUEL.
Stove and nut anthracite are ideal
fuels for heating homes. Scarcity and
cost of these fuels will restrict their
use in the future. Small sizes of an-
thracite should be used whenever pos-
sible.
Gas coke in connection with anthra-
cite pea or buckwheat coal. This is
an excellent combination, as the fire
will keep well, but will give heat when
required.
Block wood in conjunction with an-
thracite pea or buckwheat coal. This
is a good combination where wood is
available, equal to coke for producing
heat, but requiring more attention.
Bituminous coal 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. Bituminous coal
demands more attention, and unless
this is given will give less heat. Best
results will be found where the fur-
nace is rather large for the house, so
Yias the fire does not have to be push-
PART IIL
THE
MANAGEMENT OF THE
FURNACE.
1. Rules for Bunrning Anthracite Coal
(Large Sizes.)
Carry a deep bed of fuel—at least
level with the fire doors.
Shake the grate to remove ashes
and lower the fuel bed but stop when
the first live coals appear.
Fresh fuel should be spread evenly
over the entire grate area. A heavy
firing, say 6 to 8 inches deep, can be
made if desired and will last for 6 to 8
hours. For quick kindling, the fire
bed should be made fairly hot before
adding fresh fuel.
After firing keep the dampers wide
open until blue flame appears, ther
check off the draft as much as neces-
sary to keep the fire burning at de-
sired rate. The proper setting of the
dampers must be learned in the draft
avaliable for different installations.
2. Rules for Burning Coke and Anthra-
cite, Pea or Buckwheat.
Carry a deep bed of fuel—even
above the level of the fire door.
Shake the grate to remove ashes
and lower the fuel bed but stop when
the first live coals appear. :
Spread a thin layer of anthracite
over the entire grate and allow a few
minutes for this fuel to ignite. Next
fill the fire pot with coke, and allow
this to burn until blue ame appears,
then add another layer of anthracite.
After firing and seeing that the
charge is ignited, check off the draft
to the desired point for slow burning.
When banking the fire for the night,
use less coke and more anthracite, but
otherwise fire in the same manner.
Anthracite pea or buckwheat can
often be used alone with success. This
will happen when the draft is unusu-
ally good and the furnace is amply
large. Small size anthracite ignites
slowly. It is best to fire one-half of
the grate at a time, allowing the first
half of the charge to ignite before
adding the second half. Small sizes
may be used in the fall and spring if
not in the winter.
¥
3. Rules for Burning Wood and Anthra- |
cite, Pea or Buckwheat.
Follow the rules for coke and an-
thracite, substituting block wood for
coke. It is highly important to see
that the fuel is properly ignited and
giving off flame before closing off the
drafts.
4. Rules for Burning Bituminous Coal.
Bituminous, or soft coal, will, as a
rule, give out less heat than anthra-
cite when fired in the ordinary resi-
dence heater. Hence more attention
will usually be required when using
soft coal.
A deep fuel bed is desirable, also,
as a rule, more draft by the dampers.
After the fuel is partly burned,
more heat can be obtained by break-
ing up the fire bed with the hoe or
poker if the fuel is caked.
Stir up the fire and get it hot be-
fore adding new fuel.
Preliminary to firing a new charge,
push the burned fuel to the back or
sides of the fire box, heaping it high
up on the sides of the fire box walls.
Fire fresh fuel into the hole in the hot
fuel bed, making it level with the
heaped-up burning fuel.
After firing check the draft to make
the fire burn slowly, setting the dam-
pers as found best by experience.
A large charge of soft coal will burn
slowly for several hours, giving out
moderate heat. If more heat is de-
manded, it can be secured by breaking
up the partly ignited mass with the
fire tools. x
A little air should be admitted
through the slides in the fire door
when burning bituminous coal.
Registered Cows Brought Good Prices
at Community Sale.
One fact emphasized at the com-
munity sale in Bellefonte on Wednes-
day was that farmers and stock breed-
ers will pay the price for registered
blooded stock while grade stock is not

George E. Furey’s dairy herd of eigh-
teen, mostly registered Holstein Fre-
sians. The banner price received was
$247.00 for his registered cow Fegis
Pontiac DeKol Orrasby. She was

ven, who also paid $165.06 for one and

What Pleasant Gap Sportsmen Have
Done.
Despite the little hammer of the
habitual knockers the Pleasant Gap
Camp No. 176, United Sportsmen of
Pennsylvania, is steadily increasing
its membership, according to the an-!
nual report, and now has on its roll
seventy-six names of good and sub-
stantial citizens of that town and sur-
rounding territory. During the past’
year they put out one hundred quail,
forty-eight Kansas rabbits, six Mich- *
igan snow shoe rabbits, three ring-
neck pheasants and fifteen cans of .
brown trout, all furnished by the game |
and fish commissions. They also have !
raised to maturity nine ringneck
pheasants from eggs furnished by the
game commission, and these will be |
released in the spring after laying!
their first setting of eggs. i
The Camp now occupies the second
floor of the building in which is hous-
ed the Pleasant Gap hose company.
Their rooms are nicely furnished and
the walls decorated with many fire-
arms and trophies of the chase. A
very successful old time rifle match
was held last Saturday, which netted
the Camp seventy odd dollars. The
best shots, and those capturing the
good prizes were Clyde Thomas and
Mr. Mingle, of State College; Mr."
Walker, of Bush’s Addition, and Allen
Wolford, of Pleasant Gap.
The Pleasant Gap Camp is affiliated
with the United Sportsmen of Penn-!
sylvania, a state-wide organization
with many prominent men as mem-
bers, whose object is the propagation
and protection of game and fish in the |
forests and streams of the State. All’
true sportsmen are invited to join the
Camp, whether residents of Pleasant |
Gap or not. |
Twelve applications for liquor |
licenses have been filed in Centre
county. One of the number is Earl
S. Kline, for a license at the Garman
house, Bellefonte.

tee has made itself responsible for |
rent of a room in which the State tu-
berculosis clinic will be opened next
month.
That so much good can be accom-
plished through the sale of penny
seals seems sufficient apology for ask-
ing support of a public that has been
made almest bankrupt in purse and
patience by the numerous recent
“drives.”

The Left Hind Foot of a Rabbit
Caught in the Dark of the Moon
Is claimed to have much influence
for good. If caught in a graveyard
its power against evil is urlimited.
If it had the power to restore over-

but knowing it has no such power we
advise properly-fitted spectacles.
I will advise you honestly. Consult
