HOME HEATING ADVICE
BY ARA MARCUS DANIELS.
Consulting and Advisory Engineer.
Selecting Coal for House Heating.

Fuels for house-heating purposes
NAV be mentioned in the order OF
their desirability as follows: ID An
thracite coal in sizes commonly
known as pea, buckwheat. chestnut.
stove, egg and furnace: t2) gas-retort
or metallurgical coke in pieces II to
8 inches through: 80 coal briquettes,
2 to inches in diameter sometimes
considered less desirable than
screened semi -bituminous coaD; "a
screened Pocahontas semibituminous
coan over Il inch and up to or
inches in diameter; 60 sized bituminous
coal in pieces IL to inches across.
The attention required by any one
of the fuels mentioned or that which
must he given to any combination OF
different fuels must depend upon con-
ditions attending its combustion. 1t
should be emphasized that no definite
rules that will apply unmodified and
satisfactorily to all cases can be
stated. The attention which can and
will be given generally to the fire will
have much to do with proper selec-
ton of fuel
It is believed advisa bic to recon-
mend 10 each operator Of a heating
system that he devote an entire heat
ing season to a study of available
Goals and their burning in his par
ticular heater It is well to purchase
two kinds of coal at one time and to
experiment with each separately and
then with mixtures of varying pro-
portions
The burning qualities should be
noted, whether the fuel catches
quick, how we'll the fire "holds."
how much ash is left. whether one

burned whether another forms clink.
ers that are difficult to remove or
whether it fuses and forms crust
that interferes with the draft. The
installer should thus advise with the
home owner and have him understand
that intelligent study based on
general appreciation Of combustion
principles will go far toward enabling
him to decide what kind Of fuel is
best suited TO his conditions and thus
assist him to buy to better advantage.
