The available coal at a depth of less than 4,000 feet will amount to some 5,700,000,000 tons, sufficient to maintain the present out- put for 930 years. While the output under the Firth of Forth will not rapidly Increase when so much coal is available under the land, the nu(pu{' from Fifeshire s certain to advanc What amounts to a revelution in the coal supply and the-coal industry 1s taking place in Western Canada, writes United States Consul General John E. Jones, from Winnepeg, Man- itoba. The railroads in that section of the Dominlon, he says, are doing their ut- most to get away fram the necessity of using imported coal. While it Is true that anthracite coal enters Can- ada duty free, the Pennsylvania fields which he says have herstofore sup- the major portion of the al railroad consumption in Vs'aslelrn‘ the cost of transportation has become an for important facter in the economy of | railroad operation. “It is estimated,” Mr. Jones con- tinues “that fully 1,500,00 tons of Penn- sylvania coal are annually used by the railroads in Western Canada for producing motive power, and, with easy calculation, it can he seen that the transportation of this commodity for several thousand miles becomes an mportant consideration in the econ- omy of steam transportation “All of the railroads of Western Canada are interested in the opening of coal properties along their respect- ive branches; and the difficulty in the past has heen a lack of anthracite coal of sufficient healng quality to make an ideal steaming product. “The Grand Trunk Pacific and Can- adian Northern Rallroads believe they have now sgolved the problem of a | ing of the Jasper Park Collleries and | the Brazeau coal fields of Southwest- | ern Alberta. These properties are lo- cated about 200 miles west of Ed- monton, immediately west of the sixth prineipal meridian, and on both sides of the Athabasca River. No develop- ment work has yet been done upon the | north side, hut a start has been made | this year, so as to be ready for delfv- | ery by the time the Canadian North- | ern Railway tracks reach there. Con- | siderable work has been done on the | south side of the river, a mine being located alongside the Grand Trunk Pa- cific tracks, where the miners have tunneled over 2000 feet inte the top now working down to a second seam. “The present output of this mine is 500 tons & day, which will be increas- ed to 1,000 tons a later. A temporary tipple and cieaning plant Ia being Installed this year by the Roberts & Schaefner Co. of Chicago. The coal which is preduced is semi- anthracite and gives splendid results on locomotives, for whioh purpese the entire output is being used, thus dis- placng Pennsylvania coal. It Is the in- tention of the Grand Trunk Pacific to use Canadian coal entirely on all lo cometives west of Watrous, Saskatch ewan, as soon as the present supply | of Pennsylvania coal is exhausted.” e BORN.
