Coal “Waste.” The production of anthracite in Pennsylvania includes an appreciable quantity of usable fuel recovered from the old culm banks by washeries, and the unsightly monuments to the waste- ful methods of early times are dis- appearing from the landscape in the anthracite reglons. The quantity of coal recovered in the 22 years since the first washery was constructed in 1890 has amounted to about 50,000,000 iong tons, consderably more thanthe total reduction of anthracite at the be- ginning of the perfod. In 1911 the washery preduct amounted to 4,136,044 long tens, In addition te the eoal re- eovered frem the culm banks, 94,847 long tons in 1911, and 91,833 tons in 1910, were récovered frem the bottom of Busquehanna river by dredges, In the bituminous regions the prin- ejpal use of washeries is to impreve the quantity of the slack coal used in the manufacture of coke by reducing the ash amd sulphuy, altheugh con- siderabie quantities, particularly in are ed in the preparation of sized eoal for heusehold use. The quantity of bitumineus ceal washed at the .mines.im 1511 was 12,543,114 shert tons, The washeries yielded 10, . 999,481 tons of cleaned coal and 1,- 548,638 tons of refuse. 8even Millions in Sandstone. The value of the output of sandstone in the United States in 1911 was $7,- 730,868, a decrease as compared with 1910 of $199,151, according to fgures just published by the United States Geological Burvey. The leading sand- stone-producing states in 1911 were New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania, in the erder named. In New York and Pennsylvenia part of the sandstone produced is known to the trade as bluestone. The output of bluestone increased in value from $1,685,187 in 1910 to $1,876,473 in 1511, a gain of $341,286. The stone used for building decrecsed in value but that sold for flagging and curb- ing, as crushed stone ,and for un- specified purposes showed a large in- crease. The increase in value of bluestone produced in New York in 1911 was caused by the quarrying of a large quantity for use as rubble ard :18 crushed stone in concrete in the build- ing of dams for the New York City water-supply system. If it had mot been for this deman the New York production, as wel las that of Pennsyl- vania, would have decreased. The Kitty Did Did Well. It was 60 years ago that Seth Wil- marth ,a Boston inventor, designed and constructed the Kitty Did, which at the time attracted unusual a.tention in railroad circles. The engine was the first uved on the Cumberland Valley railroad. It was placed in regular service between Chambersburg and Harrisburg, Pa., a | distance of 52 miles, where it rendered efficient service. It continued in active service for 29 years. During the Civil war the Kitty Did figured prominently in hauling Federal ‘77" (GRIP&COLDS Doctors “duck” giving advice about catching Cold, according to Medical Review of Reviews.
