In the U.S. that adds up to more than 1,150 billion tons of coal a year. In comprehensible, of course. Even so. do you want to latch on to a small part of this all-fur-free energy? Nothing new, you -know. In pre-Christian times, sun energy was used to open temple doors and turn statues, and to be more practical, to make millions of tons of salt. As for this country, solar en ergy is being used today in Alaska to extend the growing season; homes are being heated in Massachusetts, Colorado, Cali fornia and Arizozna; pressure cookers are being heated in Al berta, Canada: and solar fur naces are melting the hardest of by CORRAL WHITE II t flRY'S BROILER ...BIRCH I2CS N.

And be low the northern tier of states, its operation can be economical ly leasible, engineers tell me. One in Arizona, lor example, operated during the past heating season without once drawing on its auxiliary heating system. A 315-square foot screen type col lector was used to warm the house during daylight hours and the excess daytime heat was stored in a nearby rockpile and drawn off as needed during the night. In moderate latitudes, it is quite easy to store enough heal to carry a house through two or more days of overcast while supplying current requirements for each 24 hours. Solar Cooker Or if you want to go in for something more spectacular per haps why not try a solar cooker? In many parts of North Ameri ca from Mexico to Canada cakes are being baked, rice boiled, and steaks grilled on solar cookers. For that matter, such solar ovens and stoves may soon become the standard way to prepare food in such fuel-poor, sun-rich countries as India, Egypt and Iran. A solar stove is now selling in India for S15. For your own barbeque, sim ply take a concave mirror and concentrate the ordinary noon time rays on the bottom of a blackened pot and presto! You're cooking with free heat. Unbeknownst, you may have been carrying a small sonar de vice with you. Your light ex posure meter. It converts about two-tenths of one per cent of the received light into electric en ergy. Don't be too surprised to find yourself one of these years sharing a ride on a sun-powered buggy.
