 the only bond used In the briquets. 



The cost of production, InrludlnK depreciation, Interest on capital. 

 Insurance, etc.. Is estimated «t ?:i per ton. The selllnR price will In- 

 Koverned by the price of coal, as the new fuel will be a competitor of 

 coal for domestic uses. The manufacturers claim that the briquets aH a 

 ttrnte fuel and for cooking purposes, esiiedally for bnklni;. arc superior 

 lo either wood or cool, as It Is more eiunbustlble than the hitter and 

 leaves less ash and residue than either. ' 



I'roin scientific tests made by expi-rts, the fuel Is said to contain 

 S.(I14 Krltlsb thermal units to the pound, and the iisb amounts to two 

 and onebair per rent. The company claims that from experiments 

 made recently no ash or residue resulted from the burning of their 

 liroduct, either In a grate, stove, or furniice. It_ Is also claimed that It 

 nqulres less ulr to Insure seed combiistlim than other fuels, especially 

 lonl. and that It docs not dlslntegrale In the process of burning. The 

 plant nt Victoria Is equipped with tbrei- macblnes with a dally capacity 

 of seven tons each. The fuel cau he nianuraetured and delivered wltbln 

 n mile of the factory at a cost of f:t per ion, which Is much less than 

 the cheapest srades of Pacific coast coal.
