of railroad executives to address an

railroad men. said is causing the rail

NOW IS TIME To-
BUY WINTER Goal

Right now is the time when
farmers should huy their winter
supply Of coal. Prices have already
advanced slightly bat not SO much
rs will inevitably be. the case later
on. The roads are. in the best pos
isible conditions for hauling the coal
from the mine or from the town.
Taking everything in, considera=
tion it is a surprise to US that more
farmers do not take. advantage Of
the existing conditions and buy at
this time. Three or. four neia6bors
eight or ten. or all members of a
farmer club can order coal by the
carload.
When the car reaches the near
est point to ithesfarmer buyers they
can haul 1T direct from the car to
their bins thus eliminating com.
pletely all extra charges, including
the heavy toll of teamster fiaulage.
By this means, even adding the
cost of freight, the winters supply
coal is secured SO cheaply that
there is a saving of a large sum to
each family and they know they are
all getting the same brand of roal,
