THE FUEL SITUATION.
State Administrator Explains Coal
Question and Advises Buying
Wood.

Vermont's fuel administrator, H. j,
M. Jones of Montpelier recently is
sued a long statement regarding the
coal situation in Vermont, from which
we quote:
"The prospective shortage of coal
next winter makes it incumbent upon
local fuel committees and coal deal
ers to cooperate in determining plans
for just and equitable distribution
OF anthracite coal according to indi-
vldual needs and it is urged that all
domestic consumers and manufacture
ers who can so do re-grate their fur
naces, II necessary, SO as to burn No.
1 Buckwheat coal, or finer grades of
anthracite, or use bituminous coal,
and local fuel committees and coal
dealers are requested to bring this
matter specifically to the attention of
such consumers.
The reason for the foregoing re-
commendation exists in the fact that
all No. Buckwheat and finer grades
are not included in the allotment of
anthracite made to Vermont by the
United States Fuel Administration.
Every manufacturing plant should
apply to the Priorities Board of the
War Industries Board, Washington,
~. g., for classification, and if no
blank. p. L. Form No. /, has been
furnished by said Board application
should be made to this office for one.
A classification of an industry de-
termines not only whether or not it
may be included on the Preference
List for the purpose of receiving coal
but it also determines its class on the
Preference List, whether A or B.
The Priority List of the War Indus
tries Board is a designation of those
classes of industries whose products
are essential to winning the war; the
Preference List is the classification of
the particular industries according to
the essential nature of their products.
The Priority List and the Preference
List are practically the same; one is
a classification of industries by their
products and the other is a classical
tion of the individual industries.
Local Fuel Committees and coal
dealers are reminded that, according
to instructions Nc. SO, the excess of
anthracite coal above the two thirds
on orders of six tons or more should
be held In reserve and no delivery of
this one-third excess should be made
by any coal dealer until he has re-
ceived permission from this Office. In
order to insure an equitable distrib-
ution of anthracite coal, local fuel
committees are hereby instructed to
examine the applications for such to
determine the relative needs of the
various consumers and to direct and
the distribution of this one
third excess according to individual
and actual needs of consumers re-
gardless of the amounts of their re-
spective applications. Undoubtedly
in many instances two-thirds of the
respective amounts applied for by
some consumers will be sufficient to
supply their needs.
There should be no abatement on
the part of the local fuel committees
in the encouragement of the citizens
of their respective communities to
supply themselves with wood so far
as they are able.
Very respectfully yours,
H. J. M. Jones, .
Vermont Fuel Administrator.

Late Vermont Notes.

Distribution was begun in Brattle-
boro yesterday in a bankruptcy case
which the officials say is without
parallel in the courts of Vermont. 1t
is the estate of Willis H. Taft of
West Townshend, a lumberman and
sawmill owner who filed voluntary
petition July 80, 1914. Mr.. Taft's
schedule showed liabilities of $48,5O9
and assets of $43,O47. Charles G..
Staples, Clarence L. Stickney and Ar
thur L. Clapp all of Brattleboro, were
concerned said that the assets never
would yield as much as the schedule
showed. Referee John E. Gale Of
Guilford has just ordered payment of
100 per cent and interest on all
claims, and property amounting to
more than $4,000 remains to be re-
turned to Mr. Taft The Taft mill has
been operated by order of the court
and much lumber cut and sawed.
Benjamin F. Fifeld, dean Of the
corporation lawyers Of the state and
prominent in politics, died yesterday
in Montpelier after a year of failing
health, aged IS. Mr.. Fifeld was born
in Orange and in 1856 was graduated
from the University of Vermont,
which in later years conferred on him
the degrees of A. M. and L. L. D. For
80 years he was general counsel for
the Central Vermont railway. In 1884
he was a delegate to the Republican
National Convention and in 1899 de-
clined an appointment to the United
States Senate to fill a vacancy caused
by the death of Senator Morrill,. He
was United States Attorney for Yer
mont from 1869 to 1880, member of
the Vermont House of Representa-
tives in 1880, president of the Ver-
mont Bar Association in 1884 and
commissioner to the Exposition at
Chicago in 1893. He was a trustee of
the University of Vermont.

WALTER L. MAINS CIRCUS HERE
Big Features Mark Walter L. Main
Circus.

Perhaps the best the Monitor can
do is to print what another paper
says of the Main circus. This show
appears in Barton August /.
Walter L. Mains Fashion Plate
Shows arrived in Clearfield over the
Pennsylvania this morning and short
ly after daylight the work of unload
ing and transportation of the para
phernalia to the show grounds began
under the supervision of the usual
army Of small boys.
Everything about the outfit was
spick and span, the stock was in fine
condition and things soon took on an
old-time hue, when the circus wagons
marked Walter l.. Main, commenced
trundllng over our streets.
Clearfield people have been famili-
ar with the Main Circus for the past
25 or 80 years and have reason to
know that the name of Walter i.
Main is a guarantee of the very best
of the circus line.
The street parade at 1870 was a
very creditable pageant.
The large crowd attracted to the
show grounds were well repaid for
their trouble, and were privileged to
witness one of the best circus per-
formances seen, in Clearfield in years.
All the old-fashioned features were
given and the different performances
were up-to-date in every particular.
Some of the Main features which
attracted more than ordinary inter-
est were Dotty Snyder and her troupe
Of trained elephants; Hollis, Denote
and Wallet, the three worlds cham
pion bareback, somersault riders, Eft.
ia Myer and her posing horses; death
lefying aerial acts and big wild west
show. The usual army of clowns was
On hand to delight the kiddos and the
entire performance was all that could
De desired.

Saint Venerated Everywhere.

England was not the only nation
that fought under the banner of St.
George, nor was the Order of the Car
ter the only chivalric institution in his
honor. Sicily, Arragon, Valencia,
Genoa, Malta, Barcelona, looked to him
as their guardian saint. A Venetian
Order of st. George was created in
1900, a Spanish in 1917, an Austrian in
147O, Genoese in 1472 and a Roman
in 1892. Besides these there are three
Of more modern date-Bavaria in 1923,
Russia in 1867 and Hanover in 1889.
