Gardening

I do not like to dig and till the
garden-it's too hard a chore; Id
rather take dollar bill and buy
my onions at the store. When
first the vernal breezes blow, men
feel desire to hew the soil, and
with their spades and rakes they
go. and sing and ehortle as they
toll. But vernal breezes soon ex-
pire; the sizzling wind of summer
blows, and sets the toiler's beard
afre, and tans his neck and bakes
his nose. And as he sweats meath
burning skies, and gives the nox-
ious weeds a whack, a million
ants and bugs and flies crawl up
his legs and bite his back. And
then he hates his sawed-off farm,
he growls enough for seven gents:
his caulif1owers lose all their
charm, his string beans look like
twenty cents. Oh, | have gar
dened in the past, and know the
fervor born of spring glows bright
a while. but does not last: it Is
an evanescent thing. | do not
like the rake and hoe. | will not
ply them any more; when want
turnips | will go and buy the
blamed things at the store.

COAL DEALERS UNABLE
TO FORECAST PRICES
Many Inquiries About Summer Re-
duction Met With Statement as
to Uncertainty.

will the customary summer reduc-
ton in coal prices be made this year,"
This is a question that is being asked
of coal dealers at frequent intervals
these days by their customers and
others. To every one the same answer
is given:
I'VE don't know, but we think it is
highly improbable. We don't look for
any reduction and have received no in
timation from the coal operators one
way or another"
For years the coal dealers have never
been SO 'up in the air" as they now are
concerning the business. The entire in
dustry is facing a crisis that is made
serious by two factors. both of which
will have bearing on coal prices. Coal
miners are asking for advances in
wages and probably will strike if a set
tlement is not soon reached. and the
same situation pertains to railway men.
A miners strike would put coal at pro-
hibitive prices because of the short
age which would result. A general
railway strike would cause advances
because of the inability to obtain ship
ments.
Reduction Yearly Custom.
For years it has been a custom to
reduce the price of coal April 1 by so
cents a ton. Each month thereafter
the price has been advanced 10 cents q
ton until September, when after five
months it has reached it's former level.
Today coal prices are about the same
they were September l, 1915. No deal
ers are entering into contracts for
coal. and most of them are conducting
their business on a "day-to-day" basis.
Inquiry among the trade developed the
orders for delivery any time this
month, but not later.
Prices for coal at the various estab-
lishments throughout the city are
about the same. Large furnace coal is
selling from 81 to $40 a ton and egg
size furnace around s7.35. Stove coal
Is selling around $3.50. and chestnut
from S5.75 to $685.. Soft coal, run Of
mine. is bringing from $3.50 to $475
$3.50.
Lower in Some Suburbs.
Some of the coal dealers in the
suburbs adjacent to the city are quot
ing slightly lower prices than these
for deliveries in their section. These
dealers are not under such heavy ex-
pense as the city dealers and accord
ingly can afford to give better prices
for nearby deliveries. One suburban
dealer quoted the following prices.
Large furnace. s6.s5: egg-size furnace.
$40: stove, s7.35: chestnut. $3.50: pea'
$3.50; soft coal, run of mine $3.50 and
lump soft coal. S..

PRINCIPLE Of FORUM
|NDORSED BY CITIZENS
Connecticut Avenue Association,
However, Opposes Hollis
Johnson Bill.

Opposition to the Hollis-Jo Johnson forum
bill in its present form. but hearty ap-
proval of the principle of the public
forum and the use of the local schools
for such purposes, were voiced in a reso-
luton adopted by the Connecticut Ave
nue. Citizens Association. meeting last
evening in the assembly hall of the Army
and Navy Preparatory School.
Earlier in the evening the citizens
adopted the report of their school COM
mittee, which reported. in essence, that
it was not opposed to the public forum
idea, but did not believe the Hollis-John-
son bill providing for the use of the pub
lie schools for forum meetings Sundays
as other days should become a law. The
citizens refused to sanction a resolution
disapproving the bill in toto.
BY resolution offered by Levi H. David,
and adopted, it became the sense of the
association that 'fn the selection of dele
gates to represent the District of Column
bia in the national conventions of the re-
spective political parties. to be held in
1916 only those candidates should be
voted for who favor home rule and suf-
frage for the District, representation in
Congress for the District on an equality
with the respective states of the Union
and who will conscientiously endeavor to
secure platform declaration Of their
parties to carry out the principles en-
bodied in this resolution"
Copies of this resolution will be sent to
all the citizens associations, the Fedora
tion of Citizens Associations. the Board
of Trade and the Chamber of Commerce,

CRITICAL SERIES IN
BROOKLYN This week
Phillies and Dodgers Clash on Thurs
day. Friday and Saturday in Big
gest Games of Season.

Though their American League rivals
may have been able to ease up a tribe
from the strain of the past week, the
National League leaders are facing their
most important series OF the year.
1t looks as though the games this week
between the Phillies and Brooklyn will
go far toward determining the disposi-
ton Of the pennant Brooklyn has not
set crossed the Rubicon and while the
Robins now have a lead Of nearly ten
points on the champions, it is gsing to
take these games to settle which Is the
better team.
This is the one critical series, as well
with Brooklyn as the PhIllies, and 1t ap-
pears as though upon 1t will hinge the
The advantage is with
Brooklyn, insofar as the games will be
played on its grounds, but the Phillies
have more than once in the past demon
strated that they are in some respects a
better road team than when playing to
friendly crowds, and 1t may be that they
will succeed in giving the leaders a sue
cessful battle.
Even though the champions fail to win
the series, they still have chance In
the many games with Boston, because
the present leaders will be playing New
York, and II the Giants can show their
recent form any victories over Brooklyn
will be Of immeasurahIe benefit 10 the
Phillies.
