Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - August 4, 1925, Winnipeg, Manitoba F 10 Manitoba free press Winnipeg tuesday August. 4, 1925 peat May soon in Relief of acute fuel area of Canada. Com Pany has Large amount now available. News of the business world Trade Commerce mines the Money markets latest Lloyd s Register shows growth of shipping in All Prin Cipal countries of world since 1914, Germany alone excepted. Supply of peat to help relieve acute fuel area peat fuels co. Has two three ready for Eastern centres thousand tons although peat May Only be regarded As an auxiliary fuel yet the news that peat fuels it company formed to develop the peat bos at Alfred Ontario has Between two Ami three thousand tons of peat ready for marketing in Montreal Ottawa other centres within an economic haulage distance of Alfred indicates that finally canadians will make some use of this fuel says the financial Post. The new company is the first of its kind in this country to Endeavor to develop pent bogs on a Commer Cial scale. The idea was first Given serious consideration in 1918 when the Federal the Ontario govern ments appointed a joint committee to investigate whether peat fuel could be produced commercially this committee existed for five Yeara. By which time the investigations had been can Ted far enough to Point the Way to capitalists for the successful manufacture at a domes tic Industrial from can Ada s peat resources. There were Many who considered that the governments involved should have spent a Little More time Money on the development of peat. However on july 15, a visit was paid to Alfred by officials attached to the Domin Ion fuel Board in their opinion the Progress attained by the com Pany considering the delay in com mencing this summer s operations far exceeded expectations. The important thing about this development As far As Canada s fuel problem is concerned. Is the fact that it is situated in what is usually referred to As the acute fuel area which lies Between Montreal on the East Winnipeg on the West. In this urea practically All. Fuel has to be imported from the United states As the haul from our own mines is too Long hence anything helping to relieve this situation is of interest. Should this venture prove financially successful it Seema very Likely that other companies will follow in the footsteps of peat fuels.
