OLD FIR WINS TRY0UT In State House Furnaces Against the Cheaper Slab Wood Tho tryout of tho burning of slab wood in tho furnaces of tho stato houso has been watched with great interest this winter, and not a little surprise was evinced when it was learned that it was choaper to burn old fir than it is to uso slabs. Engineor Frank Frisby made tho try out in tho state houso furnaces during tho latter part of November and tho first of Docomber, nnd ho says that, undor tho conditions, that tho slab wood had an advantago over tho fir, in tho fact that it was slightly warm er weather during its trial, and nlso that tho old fir would show up a great er saving than it did if the weathor had been colder. Tho trial lusted 32 days, 16 for oach kind of wood. Tho slnb wood was tried first, and 35 cords woro con sumed in tho length of time givon. This wood, costing $2.95 por cord, amounted to $103.25 in tho trinl. Against this was placed 23 cords of old fir, which was burned during tho sanio length of time, during colder weather, and which cost $3.90 per cord, amounting to $87.90 throughout tho test. Tho difference botweon tho cost of tho two kinds of wood being $13.55 in favor of tho more oxponsivo old fir, SOCIAL EVENTS Fino Entertainmont.
