sword of Gen. Hugh Mercer, who
was mortally wounded at the bat

was "A per cent. The third size went nine
minutes with loss of 4 of per cent, while
the fourth or largest size showed no explosion
and no loss of heat.
The tests indicated that the loss increased
as the size of coal was decreased. This does
not mean, however, the bureau indicates, that
the larger size coal is the more economical to
burn, for there IS to be considered the loss of
heat up the stack and into the ash pit from
the larger sizes of coal and the greater ten
dency for the fire to go out AS the cost of
the smallest sizes is usually lowest, the smallest
seasonal cost is believed to be found in the
finer grades.

Probably the first and greatest mistake that
most domestic users make is to bury the live
coal completely when firing fresh coal. Two
reasons for correcting this habit exist. First,
the space above the fire bed and In the pipes

When the flame finally breaks through the
green coal and ignites these gases, an explosion
of more or less intensity is likely. This ex-
plosion may confne itself to little puff which
carries up the chimney, or it may be more
violent one which forces the coaling door open
