Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Coal Miners Insecurity Facts About Irregularity, of Employment in the Bituminous Coal Industry, in the United States For thirty-two years, from 1890 through 1921, the average number of days of operation of the bituminous mines of the coun try has been only 214 a year. The miners, of course, can neither work nor earn when the mine is not operating. Meanwhile the number of new bituminous mines has steadily increased. Instead of digging coal regularly throughout the year in those mines already in operation, many more have been opened than were required to supply the country's needs, with the result that mines and miners are idle for nearly a third of the working days of the year.
