COAL ASHES BURN SUCCESSFULLY
Discovery Of Formula Is Made
Public and Reported in
Practical Use

Altoona. Pa, April 20.-The remark
able secret for burning ashes with coal
discovered by John E. Eimore. an
Altoona cobbler, and which has excited
much attention all over the world. is
out. Almost every householder in Al
toona is now using it with great saving
in coal bills. Chemists. Immediately
after il was announced that Elmore had
solved the problem of obtaining heat
from ashes, set to work to try to dis
ove the formula. They were success
full. and here it is:
Common salt. one pound.
Oxalic acid. two ounces.
Water, one gallon.
Mix and moisten q mixture contain
ing one part coal and three parts ashes
aud a better fuel than pure coal is OBJ
tanned.
The ashes of anthracite coal burn as
rapidly as do those of bituminous. This
mixture will upon being placed upon a
burning fire. fuse into a coke-like mass
and deposit but little residue. The
chemical action of this compound is
thus explained:
When an equeous soloution of an
alkaline salt, such as common salt, is
mixed with coal ash. the result is that
a mild I've is formed, which, when
mixed with any combustible material
such as coal, aud upon the application
of heat. gives off oxygen gas, thus en-
abeling rapid combustion.
The addition of oxalic acid causes a
chemical change of greater value than
the first for the reason that it results in
the formation of a carbide which in
urn gives of acetyline gas, this adding
t the intensity Of the heat and facili-
tating complete combustion.
