Now, shovel charge of fresh
coal into the hollow toward the
back of the furnace, being careful
to leave a mound of live Goals in

gases rising from the contact of
the fresh and hot coal, causing
them to burn.
Finally, when these gases are
thoroughly burned, clean the ash
pit and reset the hampers. The

remember, should be nearly
