FERNDALE

SMOKELESS STEAM COAL.

PROPRIETORS

D. DAVIS & SONS, LTD.

FERNDALE COALS are produced from the Ferndale Collieries, in the Rhondda Fach and Rhondda Fawr Valleys, which include those acquired from Messrs. A. Tylor & Co., Limited.

These Collieries are altogether situated within that portion of the South Wales Coalfield whence the best Steam Coals are worked, and, adjoining each other, THE COALS WORKED FROM THEM ARE UNIFORM IN QUALITY.

FERNDALE COALS are well known for their great evaporative power, purity, and durability.

They are purchased extensively for the English Admiralty, many of the largest English, French, Austrian, and Russian Steamship Companies, for shipment to the principal Depôts and for the Indian Railways, and by some of the largest Shippers of Coal.
