ANTHRAQTE COAL. , . 



According to my <5xperieilce' in the use 

 of anthracite coal for horticultural pur- 

 poses, it matters little what the size of 

 the boiler is, provided the character of 

 the fuel is rightly understood by the 

 stoker. I began using, the large vein 

 anthracite coal somewhere about the year 

 1876 or 1877, with no previous knowledge 

 of Its peculiarities. Not much success 

 resulted at the start. By continuously 

 raking and disturbing a fire of anthra- 

 cite coal, not only is an indiflferent heat 

 evolved, but a considerable proportion of 

 the fuel IS shaken through the fire bars 

 and remains thus unconsumed. In order 

 to obtain the best results with this fuel 

 in any type of boiler, quite apart from 

 the question of price, it must be allowed 

 to do its work undisturbed. By proper 

 regulation of the damper, a fire of 

 anthracite coal will endure manv hours 

 without attention. The chief value of this 

 coal, therefore, lies in its great dura-

 when intelligently used, there are no 

 clinkers and little ash. Further, there is 

 an entire absence of sulphurous fumes; 

 also, there is a saving in labor, and a 

 minimum of night firing, together with 

 the practical certainty of ensuring a uni-
