PROPOSES BARK FOR FUEL
Properly Prepared, According to One
Who Should Know, It Could Be
Substituted for Coal.
In a report to the Technical Asso-
ciation of the Pulp and Paper Indus-
try, which has been holding its an-
nual meeting at Detroit, George D.
Bearce, engineer for the News Print
Service bureau, described experiments
on the substitution of wood bark, prop-
erly prepared, for coal, stating that
the "enormous quantity of pulp wood
which is used In the paper business Is
evidence of Its potential fuel value to
the Industry."
The quantity of bark In pulp wood,
said Mr. Bearce, amounts to approxi-
mately ten per cent of the volume and
weight of the rough wood, or 250
pounds of dry bark per cord of wood.
One hundred cords of pulp wood rep-
resents approximately 25,000 pounds
of dry bark that has a fuel value equal
to eight tons of coal, If the moisture
of the bark Is reduced by one-half.
The heating value, Mr. Bearce stated,
increases greatly If the moisture con-
tent of the bark Is lessened.
A large number of mills using pulp
wood were visited or questioned by
Mr. Bearce and the committee which
he headed. Many stated that they con-
sidered the bark of little value. Tests
made for the committee showed that
two types of processes were able to
reduce the moisture content to about
. 60 per cent, and that It would be neces-
sary to have at least 50 per cent of
the moisture removed If the bark were
to serve as a suitable substitute for
coal. Special draft conditions, a grate
surface giving correct combustion, and
refractory walls to dry out the moist-
ure are required, said Mr. Bearce.
Under these conditions It was held
by the committee that the bark could
he used as fuel and thus effect a sav-
ing of a large amount of coal.
A Vanishing Art.
Postal busybodles have been weigh-
ing lotters and have found that their
average weight la decreasing. From
this the conclusion la drawn that the
public Is writing shortsr letters than
It did In other days.
This Is confirmatory Information,
not news. The art of letter writing
has been decadent for more than a
generation.
There has been a conspiracy of rea-
sons to bring this to pass. Perhaps
the most Important la that we live too
busy lives to spend time filling reams
of good white paper with our opinions,
observations and knowledge, If we have
any. What Is more, letters of the an-
cient volume and content are not likely
to be read any more than written.
MAN HAS MADE NEW FRIEND
South Africa Reported to Have De-
veloped New Animal Entitled to
Distinctive Phrase.
A new friend of man has been found.
This good news was announced by Pro-
fessor Myers at the congress of the
scientific association recently held at
Hull, England.
This animal, not foreseen by Noah, j
is a dog. But a singular dog, which j
inhabits Rhodesia, and which, on ac- j
count of the abundant mane that !
adorns his neck and shoulders, and
also because of his moral qualities, has
Veen named the "dog-lion." The In-
habitants from South Africa had al-
ready begun to despair, so much had
the wild beasts been multiplying there.
The birth rate of the lion, In particu-
lar, according to reports, was Incom-
parable. But now this dog-lion has
appeared.
He was still in the state of possi-
bility In the course of nature when Il-
lustrious experimenters and savantB
resolved to combine an animal which
Fled From Volcano.
The volcano of Stromboll, the Island
off the southeast coast of Italy, Is
very active. Ashes, Anders and In-
candescent stones are being flung high
into the air, while rivers of white-hot
lava are flowing down the sides of the
mountain, which Is 8,040 feet high.
By day a smoke-cap and by night the
glow of the crater can be seen for
i many miles at sea. Deep under-
1 ground rumblings are heard and
j earthquake shocks are taking place.
I The few people wh live on the moun-
tain left their home* and rushed to
the shore, whence they embarked for
1 the mainland.
