KENTUCKY COAL PRODUCTION BROKE RECORD Kentucky broke its record of coal production with an output for 1914 of 20,382,763 short tons, valued at the mines at $20,852,463, the year's output exceeding the previous high mark in 1913 by 766,163 tons. The Increase was all the more notable because it was made in a year when most of the coal fields of the country showed a decrease, and it was due to activity in coal mining in the eastern part of the State, particularly along the Virginia border, and to the construction of new railroads. The number of men employed in creased from 26,332 in 1913 to 28,764 in 1914. The average daily production per man also increased from 3.5 tons in 1913 to 3.8 in 1914, the Increase be ing due to the extended use of mining machines. The coal produced by the dangerous practice of shooting off the solid amounted to only a little over 11 per cent, in 1914 as compared with over 15 per cent, in 1913—an excellent record. The number of fatal accidents, accord ing to the Bureau of Mines, was 61. SULPHURING PEACHES FOR DRYING Sulphur fumes are frequently used to prevent peaches from being dis colored in the process of drying. A common and simple process isdescrihed in Farm and Home by O. M. Morris, who says to place the fruit, imme diately after it is prepared for dry ing, on iron wire trays. These wires should not be galvanized. The trays are then placed in a chest or small cabinet made of a convenient size. A small quantity of sulphur, from one to 1% ounces, is placed on a shovel or in an iron pot and placed in the bottom of the cabinet. It is then lighted by dropping a live coal in it or with a red hot stove poker. All the doors and vents are then clos ed and the fruit is left in this air tight compartment for a few moments until the fumes have thoroughly spread throughout the space and come in contact with all the exposed surfaces of the fruit. A little practice will be required to determine the amount of time re quired for the operation and the amount of sulphur to be used. Ordi narily one ounce of sulphur will fumi gate thoroughly all the fruit that can be placed in a drier four feet wide, six or eight feet long and six fet high, and the fumigation process is from five to 15 minutes, depending upon the ventilation given to Insure the circulation of the sulphur throughout the entire cabinet. All that Is required Is to give the sulphur sufficient time to act upon the cut surfaces of the fruit and pre vent their discoloration in the process of drying. • The fruit should be left in the fumigating box only long enough to prevent Its discoloration when being placed in the drier or ex posed to the sun for drying. The process is simple, inexpensive, and perfectly safe when properly used.

ARKANSTS PRODUCED 1,830,540 TONS OF COAL IX 1911 The Geological Survey reports a pro duction of 1,836,540 tons of coal in Ar kansas for 1914, with a value at the mines of $3,158,168. This shows a decrease from the production in 1913, which is attributed to a falling off in the demand for manufacturing pur poses, due to demoralization in the cot ton industry .in the later part of the year, and to the decrease of mild weather during the winter of 1914. These causes were sufficient to more than offset the slight increase in rail road consumption resulting from the inability of the Colorado mines, be cause of a strike, to supply fully the demand upon them. A favorable aspect of the coal sit uation in Arkansas was the decrease in the quantity and percentage of coal shot off the solid, the amount thus mined in 1914 being 78 per cent, of the total as compared with 79.6 per cent. In 1913. The quantity of machine mined coal was 19 per cent, of the total, and 3 per cent, was undercut by hand. Little or no difficulty was experi- | enced by the Arkansas operators in 1914 by reason of droughts or floods, I and transportation facilities were sat isfactory. Labor conditions, however, were less favorable, 1,415 men, or about one-third the total number em ployed in the mines of the State, being on strike for one cause or another, nnd the average number of working days lost per man was 118. There was a slight decrease in the number of employes and the average working time, but the average quantity of coal produced per man increased from 2.76 tons per day in 1913 to 2.96 tons per day in 1914. The Bureau of Mines reported 11 fatal accidents in the coal mines of Arkansas in 1914, as compared with 12 in 1913. Elsie Janis Back—Claims No Honor For Writing Poetry I©*?- * * W«S6 Eir*»* JAKI«.
