CONSERVING THE COAL SUPPLY

A few simple rules have recently been
prepared to make coal go further. 1t
is suggested by the fuel administrator
that all coal consumers either in
| stoves or in furnaces would do well
to read these rules carefully. and then
paste them up as continual reminder.
These are the rules:
/. Keep the fire pot fun. A thin fire
let's in too much cold air. and most of
the heat goes up the chimney.
?. Keep your fuel bed reasonably com
pact by using part fine coal. Cold air
goes through pile of big Jumps too
freely
(Thls is one OF the main reasons why
mine run coal is more economical than
lump or any other prepared size..)
8. Use the fine coal particularly for
banking over night and in mild wealth
en-
4. Restrain your fire: (a) BY putting
on the damper and shutting off part
of the draft as soon as the fire gets
well under way; (b) by partially bank
ing with fine coal. A steady glowing |
fire uot a roaring fire, is the kind
that gives the most heat and saves the
most coal
8. Keep the ashes well away from
under the CRATES.
s. Don't shake the fire in cold meather
after sparkes begin to fall in the ash
pit.
Keep your stove pipe damper ehok-
I'd of as much as possible at all times.
Remember that smoke and dirt are al
ways wasteful.
