' - Coal Lesson No. 2 There are thousands of kinds of COAL, but for commercial purposes they can be grouped under a few heads, each' group possessing many grades and qualities. Anthracite, op hard coal, contains 81 per cent or more fixed carbon, little ash, sulphur and moisture. It has great heating power, and burns with a smokeless flame. Owing to its compar ative scarcity, it commands a higher price than, bituminous coal, ami being milled in Pennsylvania the long freight haul and high freight' bars it from this market. Mitiiininous C.OAfj contains ,rj(l to 7" per rent olalilo hydro carbons. It burns with a long and rather smoky flame. . Semi-bituminous COAL resembles bituminous in appearance, hut is intermediate-. between it'and anthracite.
