System of Mining Is Wasteful.
In their anxiety to make the produc-
tion OF coal pay for the cost of opera
ton, Oklahoma coal operators have
adopted what was believed to be the
cheapest method OF development and
the one best adapted to the pecularitiei
OF the Oklahoma field but expert min
ing engineers now say it is the most
expensive OF all systems, no more safe,
and one which is almost criminal,
wastciul Many operators, too, are
agreed that il the mining industry is to
be placed upon a paying basis, as a
permanent enterprise, there must neccs-
Sarily be complete revolution in the
system OF mining.
In Oklahoma nearly all mines are
worked on the room and pillar system,
designed largely upon the, plan OF an
underground city, with main avenue
side streets and sidc-llning homes
Corresponding to the main street it it is

slope mine, a slope and two PARALLEL
air courses, one on each side Of tho
slope, are driven down with the dip
of the coal At regular intervals, cross
entries are turned at right angles 20
the slope, representing the side streets
of the underground city. According To
the law, there must be two PARALLEL
entries driven Break throughs are
made every 40 feeN, or 80 feet il the
mine is very gaseous between the slope
and the slope air cokrse, or entry and
entry air course. This is to allow the
air to be conducted along the working
faces As each new break-through is
made the one behind it is closed up
with a stopping, which causes the air
to seek the open through. Along
the cross entries, corresponding TO m
dividual homes in the city il he

with orders and are now literally
swamped, some of them declaring tha,

demand
Railroads Help.
The railroads are doing everything
possible TO help the operators BY Of
fering better facilities for transporta-
ton, During August OF this year
operators had no complaint to make
OF the lack Of railroad facilities and
as a result the months report showed
a production Of 600 tons of coal daily
during the entire thirty -one days, which
is one Of the best records ever estab-
lished in any district in the state.
String after string of empty and filled
cars can be seen going in and coming
out OF the forty-ninc miles OF siding
now running to the different mines Of
the district This does not include the
siding in the railroad years which is
being enlarged In order to take care oi
thousands OF orders which arc acoumu.
lating in the thirty-two mines of the
district
The bitumenouS coal mined at four
hundred feet IN this district is said 10
be the best in the state. due to the lack
Of faults in the seams The seams
found at this depth are flat and level
varying in depth from five to twenty
five feet, pitching slightly to the south
east Faults, caused by strips OF dirt
and slate matter are practically un-
known like in many other fields, there
by making II much easier mined, with
considerably less waste matter. The
screen or lump coal is absolutely free
from any slate while mine run occa
sionally will contain a slight amount
OF rock, but which does not injure its
quality.
Electricity In Use.
Electricity Is taking the place Of the
picks in the mine, having proven itself
more satisfactory and much faster
dispensing with many men in the
mines. Large electric drilling ma
chimes are installed in practically every
mine, some OF them being operated now
back as far as a mile from the shaft.
These machines are enabling the mines
to increase their production more than
twenty percent and is also helping
operators solve the labor problem.
Two men, il is said, will cut more coal
with one machine in a day than twenty
five men with picks win in twenty
days, which means money saving to
the operators. Many of these machines
have been placed in local mines during
the last two months and more are to
be installed as soon as possible, as
every measure is being taken TO meet
the growing demand for the Oklahoma
