Il scientist says it takes prodigious
amount of vegetable matter TO form
layer of coal that it is estimated that
the present growth of the world would
make a layer only one-eighth OF an

900. 900 years to form q coal bed 100
feet thick The United States has an
area of 100000 square miles of coal
fields leo, 900, QUO tons Of coal we're
mined in this country last year, enough
to run ring around the earth at the
equator 5! feet wide and 81 feet thick,
and there is enough coal IL the United
States to supply the whole world for
period OF 1 500 to 1000 years. When
coal is burned for Illuminating purposes
at least ninety per cent. is wasted.

to know how many thousands of years
