Fabrication du charbon de bois (1908) Online

A worker is first seen splitting the logs, after which they are piled up in an improvised furnace of damp hay. This causes the wood to burn to the necessary char quickly, at which the furnace is taken apart. The charcoal is cooled and raked, after which it is placed in sacks for shipment. It is shown being piled into wagons by the men, one sack at a time. The last picture shows the charcoal being packed for the consumer's use, an old woman placing it in paper bags and sealing and labeling each bag with surprising rapidity.
