THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, MARCH 8, 1932 |:ASTERN ONTARIO NEWS | AGE EIGHT "remium By-Product Coke Orient Imports Huge Amount of War Material from Europe | { | Premium Offers Great Economies in Heating Oshawa Homes ~ The high cost of home heating is one of the big problems which face the Canadian householder dur- ing the winter months. The neces- sity of keeping furnaces or st 5 going for considerable part of cach year creates 2 financial pro- blem, and every householder is keenly alive to the necessity of find- ing the most economical type of fuel for his own particular needs. In past vearS, Ontario has, to a large cxtent, been wedded to the use of anthracite coal as the proper fuel for the home, but that view- point has changed radically in more recent times. ] The answer to the problem of ec- onomical heating in the home has been found in the growing usc of by-product coke. This fuel, much fighter than anthracite coal, there- fore providing much more bulk to every ton, although selling at a con- siderably lower price, has gained rapidly in favor in the last few years, The previous disinclination to use coke as a furnace fuel, owing to a mistaken idea that it was not suitable for this purpose, has dis- appeared, and in hundreds of the homes oi Oshawa it has been found a real money-saving factor in these days of reduced ingomes. oves Light which is also the the Ontario Shore Gas many Oshawa homes Comy have | Pren This is a mistaken impression. ( oke requires no extra attention a® com- pared with other types of furnace fuel. A brief experience with it can be depended upon to maintain x satisfactory fire for long periods of time, and used in cenjunction with the cheap pea coal, or buck- wheat coal, it gives just as much satisfaction. Worth a Trial With a fresh spell of winter wea- ther now on hand, many homes in Oshawa which have not yet tried Premium By-Product coke still have ample opportunity to test it ror themselves, to be convinced of the economy of using it. In the an- nouncements on this page today, interesting facts .are 'given as iw reasons why the people of Oshawa should use this coke, so as to de- velop for it the market which js essential before the coking plant, to which the citizens are looking for- ward, can be established in the city. From the standpoint of civic patrio- tism, as well as that of actual dol- lars and cents savings, then, it is worth while for the people of Osh- awa to give Premium By-Product Coke a trial in their homes. There are other winters vet to come, win- ters which may be much more sev- ere than that which is rapidly draw- a close, and it is suggested who have not yet tried Byv-Product Coke, and learned of 'the economy provides in heating prob- r the balance of the ing to that those cil | present winter, So as to find out for added to those using coke as the | themselves, as hundreds of others proper and most economical hea fuel.
