Ladies' tailor in connection. Carl E. Franseen, ASTORIA'S LEADING TAILOR, 179 11th St :-: Phone 3711 The coat purchases of the United States Government aggregate in value nearly $6,300,000 annually, and it be came apparent some time ago that a more uniform basis for buying coal was urgently needed. Until after the establishnteent of the fuel-testing plant of the United States Geological Survey at St. Louis, in 1904, reliable information in regard to the character of the coals of the United States was difficult to obtain. Coal has been purchased by the Gov ernment, as well as by the general public, on the mere statement of the selling agent as to its quality or on the reputation of the mine or district r- t' t l.: a. j it 2 irom wmca u was uummcu, nu u u did not prove to be satisfactory there was no standard for settlement or jus tification for canceling the contract If a consumer thought he had cause to find fault with the quality of the fuel he received he was in many cases assured that it must be good because, like all the other coal sent him, it came from a mine with an established reputation. All the other products of mines gold, silver, copper, and even lead, line, and iron ores are pur chased to a great extent on the basis of their value as shown by chemical analysis; of coal this is now true only in a small degree, but the number of contracts made on this basis is in creasing from year to year. The United States Geological Sur vey has been charged with the duty of analyzing and testing the coals used by the Government, and a sum mary of the information on this sub ject obtained to date, including sam ples of the specifications for coal con tracts that are now in use and analy ses of some of the coals purchased during the winter of 1906-7, prepared by Mr. D. T. Randall, has just been published as Bulletin No. 339. This bulletin is distributed free of charge and may be obtained on application to the Directors of the Survey at Washington, D. C Samples of the specifications used by many of the large commercial consumers of coal are also given. The work was taken up by the technologic branch of the Survey as the result of a letter written by Presi dent Roosevelt to the National Advi sory Board on Fuels and Structural Materials, a body of leading engineers of the country appointed by the President some time ago to deal with just such questions. The Advisory Board referred the President's request to Government engineers familiar with power-plant requirements, who drew np specifications for the pur chase of coal on its actual heating value, which were afterward revised and recommended by the' Board. Contracts were let in a number of the Departments on this basis, and the chemists of the technologic branch were set to work making analyses of the coals received. The work is now being carried forward continuously. From time to time, as the dealers are delivering coal, the custodians of the Government buildings notify the Sur vey, and samples of the coal are taken to the laboratory and analyzed to de termine their heating value and their content of fixed carbon, volatile mat ter, ash, and sulphur. If the coal falls much below the standard set in the contract a penalty is imposed; if it proves to be of higher grade the dealer gets a premium. A number of premiums have been paid by the Government, and an absolute econ omy over the old haphazard methods of purchase has already been proved. NOTICE.
