GLASER, Manager COAL FROM Mammoth Veins The reason there is so much slate in some coal is because the vein being work ed is thin and the operation too close to the edge of earth and other matter surround in- it. Kelley's Coal comes from so called mammoth veins, from 10 to 12 feet thick, which yield nothing but coal. Naturally there is less slate in Kelley's Coal than any other fuel that comes to this city and that is the I reason Kelley's Coal burns so satisfactorily. H. M.
