GREAT ARMY OF COAL MINERS
Coal Miners of the United States EN-
pIcy Over Three Quarters of a Mil
lion Men.

A greater number of men were en-
ployeo in the coal-mining industry IN
the United States in 1914 than ever
before. According to c. E. Lesher, OF
the United States Geological Survey,
the total number of employees in both
anthracite and bituminous mines for
the first time exceeded three-Quarters
of a million. This record was made
without a sacrifice of efficiency, for
although the average number of days
worked in the bitumiuous mines was
the smallest since 1896, except only
1908, and the average output per man
for the year was the lowest in S years
the average daily production by each
employee in 1914 was the highest on
record in bituminous coal mining,
This record is to be attributed not SO
much to the better character Of the
labor as to improved mining methods
and the increased application of sci
entific management.
The number of men employed in the
coal mines of the United States in 1914
was T63, 1s5, of which number 179,6Is
were engaged in mining anthracite
and 6s3,506 in mining bituminous coal
and Ignite. The average number OF
days of employment of each man was
2O7 for the United States. 1875 for BIZ
luminous and Ignite. and 245 for an
thracite. In the bituminous mines the
yearly average decreased from s3i
tons in 1913 to TIA tons in 1914. The
