TO SUPPLY NATURAL
GAS DEFICIENCY
It is expected that in the near fu
ture artificial gas for heating pur
poses will be substituted largely for
natural gas in the Pittsburgh and oth
er districts, where a considerable shortage in supply of natural gas has developed. This was the prediction
made at a conference held recently under the auspices of the Public Service Commission in Pittsburgh. The Philadelphia Co., which has been a large supplier of natural gas for many years, it Is stated, is now prepared to supply 7,000,000 cubic feet of artificial gas per day, and expects in the near future to be able to supply 30,000,000 cubic feet of artificial gas per day.

the day:
He got up Just after sunrise ana
took a walk. When his guests, including many men of prominence in sci
ence and letters, gathered about the breakfast table, Mr. Burroughs discovered that the biscuits would be improved if. covered with real maple sugar. So he went out, tapped a maple tree, drew off the sap, boiled the sap, and made maple BUgar, which was
served on the biscuits the following morning.. He then planted a maple tree in his host's yard and had luncheon. Later he went trout fishing. After dinner everybody sat around the open fire, ate apples, talked, got sleepy and went to bed. "The Faith of a Naturalist" is a new book which Mr. Burroughs announced he has Just finished. It was said his health Is excellent. In every way he Is his old, lively self, his interest in all things, great and small, being quite as keen as ever. Millions Spent for Housing.
