PRODUCTION OF COAL. 



AREA OF THE WORLD'S COAL FIELDS, IN 

 SQUARE MILES. 



China and Japan, 200,000-; United States, 194,000; 

 India, 35,000; Russia, 27,000: Great Britain 9,000; Ger- 

 many, 3,600; France, 1,800; Belgium, Spain, and other 

 countries, 1,400. Total, 471,800. 



The coal fields of China, Japan, Great Britain, Ger- 

 many, Russia, and India contain apparently 303,000,000,- 

 000 tons, which is enough for 450 years at present rate 

 of consumption. If to the above be added the coal 

 fields in the United States, Canada, and other countries, 



the supply will be found ample for 1,000 years. Im- 

 proved machinery has greatly increased the yield per 

 miner, and thus produced a fall in price to the advan- 

 tage of all industries.
