Peat Bogs Offer Massachusetts Fuel Source
Special correspondence from Boston notes coal shortages from the anthracite strike push interest in peat as an alternative fuel. Massachusetts sits on 100000 acres of peat, potentially yielding 121000000 cords, with Nantucket and Melrose meadows already harvesting. Peat is abundant in Maine, New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Wisconsin, and Minnesota, and New Jersey shows early commercial use near Morristown. The article explains peat harvesting methods and cites historical engine use of etna bog in Maine as context.
