put in new ton wagon scale, which
enables US TO sell DRY coal. Besides
this, and what is of still greater interest
and value to consumers. we screen our
coal, at our yard, with a 4 inch screen ::

lie bladed oar and small sail, which may
be attached to the feet, he was enabled
to propel himself with considerable We.
