AN EMEBaENGY BOILEB. 



I wish to know if a tubular stoam 

 boiler rated at 100 horse-power will be 

 too large to heat economically a plant 

 of 20,000 feet of glass exposure, in 

 cold weather. We have a boiler of 

 about the right capacity for mild 

 weather, but think of adding this larger 

 boiler for reserve capacity and emer- 

 gency work. Would restricting the grate 

 area help any, or would it be a better 

 plan to carry the normal grate area 

 and depend on a slow, large fire for the 

 required heat? We are located in 

 southern Kansas. W. H. C. 



While a 100 horse-power boi'.or will 

 be considerably larger than is required 

 for the present plant, it will not prove 

 very wasteful of fuel for reserve use, 

 as proposed. It will, however, be well 

 to reduce the area of the grate about 

 one-third. 



THE SITUATION ON COAL. 



The coal trade is up in the air — 

 conditions during the summer have been 

 abnormal and no one in the trade is 

 qualified to say how long the present 

 situation will maintain. 



The mine workers are in convention 

 at Indianapolis, trying to settle their 

 internal differences, which are a neces- 

 sary prelude to settling the miners' 

 differences with the employers. An ad- 

 justment may be reached at any mo- 

 ment, but, on the other hand, it may 

 be postponed indefinitely. When an 

 agreement between workers and em- 

 ployers finally is reached it will take 

 a fortnight to get the idle mines up to 

 full producing capacity. 



During the summer the labor troubles 

 in the western fields have turned the 

 demand toward the eastern coals, on 

 which production has been more steady. 

 With the great reduction of production
