O, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1922. TO CONSERVE HEAT Anthracite Coal Shortage Prompts Suggestion to Weather-Proof Homes. The 30,000,000-ton estimated an- thracite shortage which the country faces this winter gives added im- portance to the householder's prob- lem of weatherproofing his house for the cold months. When fuel was cheap it did not make much differ- ence. But two or three extra tons of coal this year run into money. One who has made a study of heat conservation offers the following practical suggestions for saving heat within the house and for making every pound of fuel count: The owner should make an inspec- tion of doors, transoms, windows and floors. He should start’ with the cel- lar and seo that the windows there are “airtight. The " cellar_windown can be window-stripped at small cost.

King, | keeping Hving room dining room and kitchen floors cold Air entering the cellar also cools off the heating plant. In some houses the warm air from the cellar can escape upward between the studs. If it can be done, it is best to close up the openings, making the cellar as alr- tight as possible, Give Attics an Tnspection. The attic {s a part of the house which also Is frequently not given proper attention. If the door fro: the attic to the other house does not fit prop house will get a alr. because ordinarily there a many air leaks about the roof and the attle windows.
