In Reply to: Wood Pellets!!!!! posted by SJ on October 30, 2008 at 03:48:09:
We have a Whitfield pellet stove. Owner's manual says absolutely not to burn anything but pellets in it. The dealer said about 50% corn but I found 25% was the best. About 2-3 years ago when nat gas went thru the roof so did pellets when everyone went out and bought pellet stoves then they came back down. This time I think folks have bought stoves again but have also horded (stocked up) with fears of oil prices climb higher. If that's the case there should be lots of pellets once everyone has restocked. For us we'd have to buy stove wood and the cost is close to what pellets should be ($150 to $180/ton) with a lot more hassle (store/split/haul/cut/stoking/lighting/relighting ect). pellets here jumped from 165 to $220/ton in 2 weeks and they're hard to find but if you call around you can get them TSC, Menards and Lowes had them but at $250/ton. We know the owners of a pellet manf. but they don't sell retail. I think they would help us in a pinch. We do have NG regular heat and I do watch to see which one is cheaper to run since our NG has droped 50% since August. Next time I'd get one that could burn anything so I can be flexible with the market. Good luck

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he reached his early sixties
