Where Anthracite Comes From.

Luzerne county produced nearly 40 per
cent. Of the total production of anthra-
cite coal in the United States during the
year 1906. Its output was 26,266,07S
1905, and while there is a decrease of
3SS,337 tons it does not detract from
Luzerne's position as the most fertile
anthracite field in the country. The de-
crease can be accounted for principally
by reason of the suspension last April
and May, when the mines were idle for
six weeks while negotiations were going
on between the miners and operators,
which ended in a continuation of the
award of the strike commission. The
other 60 per cent. was mined in the coun-
ties of Carbon, Columbia, Dauphin
Lackawanna, Northumberland and
Schuylkill. PHILADELPHIA Record.
