Even the cars of slack are evenly loaded and trimmed. Careful inspection and frequent supervision accounts for results like the camera shows. Every attention is paid to the preparation and marketing of "White Oak" coal. No detail is too small to receive our most careful attention. Conditions shown here prevail at all the White Oak Mines.
