production of coal in the United States
during 1910 between 475,OOOOOO and
485, 100000 short tons. The OUTPUT in
1909 was 459.715,7O4 short tons, and
in 1907. 4S0.363,424. Colorado fur

The states in which notable increases
in production were made are Colorado,
Ohio, West Virginia, Alabama, New

and Oklahoma lost in production be-
cause of pending strikes. A general
advance in the price of anthracite
coal has ben noticeable and any de-

Colorado Notwithstanding that the
strike of April 1st affected the lig.

districts of the state. The coal pro-
duced in 1910 sold for much higher
price than the previous year. Colo
RADIOS total production in 1909 was
10,722,746 short tons. The increase in
1910 was about 20 per cent. The
