AWAY OVER THE TOR.

Crystal Falls district went away
over the top in the matter of Liberty
Loan subscriptions. The amount al.
lotted to the Crystal Falls district
was Sl25000. The amount actually
subscribed to was $4,000.
Iron county will subscribe 10 near
~ 100000 worth OF bonds according
to this outlook. The countys quota
was 1891 900.
II was found much easier 10 sell
bonds this time than on either OF the
other two occcaions, as the people
in general are awakening TO the fact
that buying Liberty Bonds is an ex-
-cellent way 10 save money.

TO THE PUBLIC.

The United States Fuel Admins
tration advises all householders to
lay in supply OF coal as early as
possible. On account OF increased
demand OF anthracite coal for govern
ment uses and the need OF hard coal
for industries engaged in war work
in the East, supply available for
Michigan and other western states
will be limited
The government intends coal ship
ments to be made with the least pos
sible haul, Practically all the hard
coal comes from Pennsylvania. As
the whole matter Is one OF transpor-
tation and a shortage existing in cars
and motive power, the hard coal will
not be equitably distributed over the
entire country as IL otherwise should
be.
Under the present coming plan
Michigan is denied Pocahontas coal
A reasonable supply OF soft coal
can now be obtained and citizens
should at once order and have deliv-
cred TO them prior to June 18th, at
least one-half of their expected re-
quirements for next winter. Unless
citizens will take the kind OF coal
that can now be furnished, it will be
impossible to supply domestic require
ments later i'm the season. Coal must
be mined, hauled ana delivered in
considerable quantities during April
May and June i'm order TO prevent a
repetition Of last years condition.
The coal dealer should not be eX-
pected to buy coal and store IL during
the summer months. The public
should buy now and in that way the
