Coke, because it makes no smoke, is. peculiarly adapted for use in cities, and there is every, reason to believe that, weight for weight, it is a more - economical fuel than steam coaL . Thus, for example, in short boilers, or those in which there is aot a. loaf run in tile chimney, coke will prove more economical > than coaL. Two .excellent illustrations of this fact. have come under our notice. In one, a small vertical t boiler, without tubes, actually evaporated nearly 81bs of cold water per pound of coke." With coal the uud* boiler could, at most, have evaporated 51bs; that i», if the coal could have been fairly burnt.at all . which we doubt. In the other one, the evaporation was at the rate of β-eeihs of water to the pound of,: coal, with the boiler doing precisely the same work' and under similar conditions— only change being : that gas coke was used instead of coal as feel; th« evaporation was 8 lib of watqr per pound of coke. ; Steam users are invited to apply for a , reprint it f article from the Engineer, to be obtained at the Gat Office. ■■• • '■■...',. ;. ,^ • W.
