Entire change in firing conditions demands change in grates; stoker then will equal or better hand-fired economy; while all tests have demonstrated that at rates of combustion within physical capacity of human fireman, higher evaporation per pound of coal was obtained than in stoker firing, nevertheless if locomotive is adapted to burn coal economically as fired by stoker, stoker will show performance equal to hand firing and results that cannot be approached by even expert hand firing.
