March 22, 1918. THE COLLIERY GUARDIAN. [supplement PAGE XIII.] 619 Coal Saving For Collieries. I ntroduction. One of the most promising fields for coal saving in Collieries to-day is the boiler-plant. The reason is that the production of steam at the cheapest possible rate is essentially the business of Specialists, requiring a combination of Technical Chemistry and Engineering quite outside ordinary practice. We have specialised in this business, and the savings we can obtain vary from 20 — 40 X of the coal bill of average Colliery boiler-plants. We offer you our services in this work, and we are so confident of making substantial savings that we are willing to be paid entirely on results. We shall be glad to explain our proposition personally or by letter, and are prepared to visit your Colliery free of charge and give you our opinio r of the working of your boiler-plant. ’♦koivnlir & ©rent Xtd..
