AKRON COAL. CO’S MINE 
RRyRyee  ONG CU Ce) een Be Len ee —————— 
The coal, as will be seen, holds a thickness of 54 feet. Of what is 
sent out by the miner, 40 per cent. goes through an 14-inch screen. 
Much of the product of this mine goes into market as “run of mine,” 
which is known here by the local name of “brush coal.” A Harrison 
mining machine is in successful operation here, and the mine is making 
a large output. 
The same general statements apply to the mine of the Manufac- 
turers’ Coal Company, which adjoins the mining property last named. 
The last large mine opened in the seam in ascending the Will’s 
Creek Valley is that of the newly opened Buffalo Coal Company, at 
Hartford. The coal lies 50 feet below the bed of the creek. It is 6 
feet thick, and of excellent quality, as is indicated in the appended 
table:
