RELATION OF WOOD TO COAL
A report from the Department of
Mines and Resources states that one
and a quarter cords of heavy hard-
wood such as maple, yiTow birch,
beech and oak will yield ; much heat
as one ton of anthracite. A cord of
the softer woods such as white birch
soft maple, poplar or ,basswood pro-
duces only 60 to 80 p.c. of the heat'
of the heavier hardwoods. This cam- j
parison with anthricite applies only
to furnace equipment ae fireplaces'
are notoriously inefficient. Now if,
you are in a cordwood section the'
question arises where to get the man
power to cut and haul the cordwood j
Next to substituting cordwood, if:i
available, the best way around the
coal shortage is to use less of it. In- 1
sulation, weatherstripping, and calk-.
ing will help greatly but the use of
lower-cost, higher -heat -value soft
coal by means of automatic coal
stokers represents by far the great-
est step which the harrassed home-
owner can take in reducing coal con-
sumption and heatin,c;'eosts, I
