COAL IS REGARDED
SCIENTIFICALLY NOW
Analysis as Necessary These
Days as of Anything the
People Use.

4 few years ago coal analysis was
complicated puzzle 10 most people.
But recently it has become an economic
necessity to scrutinize tho coal bin as
carefully as the food bill. and We have
lea rned that chemical analysis, when
properly made from sample properly
taken, is tho surest test OF Goals fuel
value. This value is generally stated
In terms OF the British thermal unit
(sometimes abbreviated TO "B. I. u.),

the temperature OF pound OF water !
degree Fahrenheit.
Manufacturers and large commercial
houses have now found It a matter of
economy TO determine the heating value
Of fuel purchased for power or heating,
and the coal-testinG Ia boratory is con-
sidered quite as important as the ac-
counting room. Tho United States gov
ef1nent IN making It's contracts for
coal requires guaranty not only as
to ash content II goes even much far
ther than this and makes analyses OF
samples taken from each shipment TO
determine whether the standard set by
the contract is being maintained.
From time TO time during the last
six years the United States has made
analyses OF largo number Of samples
OF coal COUeCteu oy CeOiOSlStS lIoili va
rous states and fields. Most OF the
samples were taken in anticipation OF
the publication of r geologic report on
the field from which they were obtained.
but for various reasons the preparation
OF the several reports has been greatly
delayed, and some Of them have been
postponed for consolida ton with reports
on other areas. In view OF the fact
that the analyses are valuable TO per-
sons interested In the fields from which
tho samples were taken, the geological
survey has published the data for more
than $50 Of these samples In bulletin

OF CENTURY
OF COAL PRODUCTION

From 1914. the date Of the earliest
record of coal production in this country.
10 1911, inclusive. according to a chart
just issued by the United States geolosi-
cal survey. Pennsylvania has furnished
2,2lo, 19S, ,37 short tons OF anthracite coal
and 1856, ,4sl, ,260 short tons of bitumin-
Gus coal total OF 4.667 2S9 997 short
tons. The greatest output of anthra cite
coal from this state was In 1911, when
S0. 46a.O67 short tons were mined: the
record production OF bituminous coal was
in 1910. when the yield was loo, 521, ,526
short tons. Illinois ranks second in the
production of coal during the period from
1914 to 1911, with S44,012,3 ,353 short tons
OF bituminous coal: West Virginia third,
with 649. AS. .20J short tons, and Ohio
fourth, with 611,949,292 short tons None
OF the othersstates has produced as much
as 6oo,o00,000 short tons during the
period. These four states have therefore
produced during the ninety eight-year
period 6,772, ,699,S43 short tons OF coal
or more than three fourths OF tho total
output OF the United States.
