our COAL CONSUMPTION.

Industrial development In the United
States has been SO rapid during the
last half century that the statements
OF the statisticians announcing in
j numerical terms the marvellous in
crease in production, population, and
wealth, have come to be received as
q common matter of fact, and it is only
when we give them serious considera-
ton that we gain even a faint compre-
hension of what the figures really mean.
Take, for instance, the coal mining
industry. According to Frederick r.
Seward In The Manufacturers Rec
ord, the present output of American
4 coal is about million tons a day, or,
in other words, the annual coal pro-
duction is about four tons for each
man, woman and child in the United
States AS very little of this enormous
output ever reaches the shores of any
foreign country the question natur-
ally arises how to account for the home
consumption SO greatly exceeding tina;
of other countries.
American homes, business houses and
public buildings may be, probably are,
heated with greater extravaganza than
are those of other countries, but this
would by no means account for the
large difference Of consumption that
exists.
In the first place, in proportion to its
population. we have many more miles
Of railway trackage than any other
country. 1t is probable that three o.
four times as much coal per capita
is consumed in turning the wheels of
the rolling stock on American rail-
roads as In those Of European coun-
tries. The annual production of more
than 1s,0oO,O00 pounds of pig iron in
this country necessitates the burning
of about 100000 tons of coal. la
