Several of the local dealers have this form of coal on hand and, | that the public may be in- Herald quotes the dealer as follows Several local dealers have laid in| supply of Cannel coal to be used substitute for anthracite until| a time as they can fill their cus- | tomers' orders for the harder product, | This does not mean that Cannel will be sent out on an anthracite order— not unless so specified. Sinilar to Anthracite. “The coal is very similar to anthra- cite in s ance and may be used in any kind of a heater. It burns more freely than hard anthracite and gives a very intense heat. The coal burns clear, without clinkers and lit- tle or no cinders or ashes to sift as e hing is entirely consumed. “The following instructions for burning are given: Start your fire as | vou would when using anthracite, | Open all drafts, lay in your kindling | and a layer of coal. When fire is burning briskly close bottom draft en- tirely. Experiment with the chimney draft, but never close it entirely. Have the air vent in the fire door open a little to aid in combustion. The chimney draft must be so regulated that the gases will be carried off. Do not force the fire. | Not Advising Use. One dealer said: “While we are not advising our customers to take a large quantity, we believe it good judgment | to put in at least one ton to tide over| until anthracite can be delivered. In- dications are that there will be many | times during the coming winter when the dealers’ yvards will be entirely cleaned up and a ton or so of Cannel coal, will be very good {nsurance against the cold. Its appearance is almost that of lumpy soft coal but its substance and burning quality are en- tirely different. The coal is selling for $15.50 per ton delivered. a Frederick Harmon, piano in- structlon, sight singing and coaching.
