COAL AND MANUFACTURING

Goal and manufacturing terms which are in

ion of Guy E. Mitchell of the u S. Geological Sur

are considered as possible great industrial ceners.
These quotations show what practical men think
about Ignite
1t is significant just at this time, when great COM

Of bituminous coal in the east that so eminent
man as Mr. Mitchell should state that localities
having large deposits OF Ignite coal are possible

"That great battleship the North Dakota, cost us

This amount of money would supply twenty-five

PENNIES IN THE BOX.
r. +. D. Carriers Not Obliged to
Take Them After Feb. is.

One of the chief things which have
made life miserable for the rural free
delivery carrier, viz, fishing pennies out
of the boxes in the winter, when hands
are numb and the pennies often frozen to
the bottom of the box, seems about to be
done away with, as a recent order from
the postoffice department at Washington
states that after February 10 persons liv-
along rural routes must stamp all out
going matter mailed in their mail boxes.
1t will not be sufficient after that date to
put money in the box to pay postage for
matter deposited.
The department estimates that rural
mail carriers were compelled during the
year to fish some 300 600, 600 copper
cents out of mail boxes, and good many
of these were frozen to the bottom of the
box, too. The result has been consider
able delay in the collec tion of mail.
