VALUE PULVERZED
COAL As FUEL
James Riley, Electrical Engineer
of Parsons, and w. r. Bald
win of the Edgar Smelt-
ers, Were Here

The value of pulverized coal as fuel
particularly in big Industries, was
shown in an interesting talk recently
in the assembly room OF the Chamber
of Commerce by James Riley, cleo
trical engineer Of Parsons, Kansas,
and representative of the Fuller Con-
struction company Of Allentown, Pa,
the people who made pulverized coal
fuel success. +. He was accompanied
to Baxter by W. r. Baldwin of the
Edgar Smelters of Cherryvale, Kan,
where the smelters are equipped to
run with pulverized coal as fuel.
Through persons, who knew that
the Baxter locality is an excellent To-
cation for a zinc smelter, these gentle
men came to outline the possibilities
Several local business men and min
ing operators were present to hear the
talk. It is maintained by both Riley
and Baldwin that the pulverized coal
will compete with coal at 81 ton,
with 56 cent natural gas as fuel. 1t
was this discovery that caused the
Edgar Shelters to install the system
at Cherryvale, and also it has been
installed in the Katy railway shops
at Parsons for more than two years.
It is now being experimental with for
use on locomotive engines and with
great success.
The cheapest coal can be utilized
through pulNeEzing 1t. Everything
is pulveri1ed and burned, there being
no ashes left. 1t results, therefore,
That a much Jess supply of coal is
necessary to take care of an indus
try. Toward the close of the Euro
pean war many United States ships
were equipped with pulverized coal
burners, as there was no smoke to at
tract the attention of the enemy sub
marines. 1t was found, too, that the
Ships could operate on one-fourth less
coal, thus making more room for car
60.
The pulverized coal system is being
installed in many places where there
are great amounts of inferior coal that
heretofore was considered of no value.
A smelter is now being organized for
Van Buren, Ark, which will be equip
ped for burning pulverized coal. 1t is
being built by the American Tin Plate
company.
