SOME PERTINENT FACTS ABOUT COAL

the of fire that distinguishes man from brute
heat that the main spring of modern progress the latent
which motion the great forces OF nature and
the available of exerng that at the dis
posal of COAL Coal is the real king the real creative
power of the world
So much for generaltes we'll get nearer home
Coal mining is of Utahs leading industries The
prominence of this industry lies in the good
quality of the coal.
Analysis of Castle coal show per cent to per cent
moisture per ASH leaving about 80 per cent Com
busble Volatile and Fixed Carbon-that u.s. out OF one
ton sacks probably sack returned ash
The division of volatile and Carbon insures free
burning yet there sufficient carbon to cause to burn
a long time making it an economical fuel
In fact Utah produces really high grade OF btumnous
coal 1t igntes and burns freely with clear strong blaze
leaves but little ASH remarkable for the length of time
it burns
Mines are located Castle Gate, Clear Creek Winter
and Sunny Sd but the coal best suited for domestic
uses is mined at Castle Gate and Clear Creek Most retail
dealers sell 1t.
Winter Quarters coal is good steam producer.
