FIFTY CENTS MORE
ON PRICE OF COAL
Increase of So Cents Ton at Mines
Will Add More Than S30,000,000
to Publc's Bill.
to Public s Bill

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3--There is
every probability that an increase of
al least 80 cents ton for anthracite
coal for home consumers will be made
at once. A general increase of 80 cents
a ton was added to the price at the
mines Saturday by President Wilson
to meet a proposed wage increase for
anthracite miners. The new prices arc
effective beginning today and will add
more than $4,000, 900 to the public 5
annual coal bill.
The wage increase was agreed on by
operators and miners representatives
here two weeks ago, contingent on
higher coal prices to absorb the raise.
When their negotiations were ended the
operators and miners turned over to the
fuel administration their agreement
and estimates of what il would add to
the cost OF production. They asked
that prices be raised at least - cents
ton

Plan the 1913 Garden Now.

During the past few days The Re
former has been giving instructions of
rho fall and winter handling OF the
ground TO be used for war gardens in
1918 in cooperation with the winter
campaign Of the National Emergency
Food Garden Commission, of Washing
ton.
With the various suggestions heed
ed and the ground properly attended
to in pursuance Of instruction the next
matter for attention IS the garden plan
and the ordering Of seed. Those who
had gardens in 1917 will profit by both
their successes and failures and will
enter the new year with firm deter
mination to have better garden than
the old one was.

study and change it until it suits youI

SCARCITY OF TEACHERS.
State Commissioner Wants Names of
Those Qualified to Teach.

MONTPELIER. Dee 3.-Not IN
years has Vermont been SO short OF
teachers as it is at the present time
and Commissioner OF Education NJ. T..
HiIlcgas has sent letters TO all Of the
union superintendent urging them to
give him the names OF any persons who
are qualified to teach. This request is
also applicable to the public in general
for there is ample opportunity for per
sons who can qualify to teach.
The reason for the shortage of teach
crs is that for various reasons many
have left the teaching staff of Yer
mont schools to go to other states
while many of the male instructors
have gone into military or other fed
cral service. For instance, a few days
rince the head of a high school near
Burlington went elsewhere and the pc.
sition had 10 be filled from the Bur
lington school, causing vacancy there

This will reach to every corner of the
state and require patriotic service from
MANY men, women, and children in ev-
cry town. The department of educa-
tion of the state has already begun tae
work of organizing the schools. In
England under similar war savings
system it has been found that deposits
in the savings banks were increased as
never before, and it is believed that
the same result will follow here.

Refusal Of farmers to pay better

responsible in statement by Louis L J.

department, for the present lack Of

Dor, Mr.. Post says, must be met large
ly by the employment of boys this
summer and by the release for short

to let their employees go to the farms
