A retail coal dealer in Newark.
N. J., refuses to sell to anybody
excepting old customers and per-
sons with sickness in the family.
One customer fooled him by bor-
rowing a sick baby.
In the same city a jeweler took
a few days on. got a job as a coal
driver, dumped the two tons he
carried out on his first trip into
his own cellar and then resigned.
In a Pennsylvania town, where
consumers are limited to one-ton
orders, a customer connected up
two cellars by a tunnel and got
four tons. He was indicted for
perjury and compelled to cart out
three and a half tons by bucket.
All this from official reports

Jefferson City, Sept. 8.-The CON-
missioners for the new state capitol
and the contractors are in a deadlock
over the transfer of the building IL
the state. The terms of the commits
sioners are substantially that $4,000
shall be held back from the contract
ors for one year.
Chairman Stephens of the commits
sion said today that the commission
els have been urging the contractors
to finish the building.
The contractors have declined our
offer" he said. There it stands. In
the meantime the forfeit of $3.50 a
day for each day the state is delayed
in getting possession of the building
subsequent to July /, 1916, will be
imposed. The state is actually suf-
fering for the use Of the building.
Could we have reached an agreement
with the contractors we could have
had the state officials in the building
at this time.
The proposal has the approval of
the attorney general. In the mean
time the state is safeguarded. There

A cooperative organization OF
farmers by counties, as planned BY
William Hirth, publisher of the Mis-
souri, Farmer. Columbia, Mo-, is ex-
pected to prove beneficial to the
United States government as well as
to the individual farmer.
Mr.. Hirth's plan is to. organize all
Of the farmers in each county into 4
club. Through this club the farmers
will sell their products and live stock.
One or several of the members will
conduct the work. At present tn.
government is buying a large number
of horses and mules at high prices
The farmer is getting a comparative
~ low price from dealers that arc
going through the country buying
horses to sell to the government.
The farmers county club will
eliminate this loss of profit by having
all Of the farmers in the county that
have horses or mules for sale bring
the animals to the county seat on i
set day. on which the purchasing
quartermaster will have an inspec-
ton board there to buy the animals.
Maj. J. M. Burroughs, buying two
thousand of the Kansas City remount
zone, has promised Mr.. Hirth that
= soon as the county farmers' club
i started in Boone County he will
send one Of the inspection boards
