Americus has had 240 tons of coal

Three or four more cars are due
to arrive this coming week.
On account Of the shortage and the
big dsmand, however. the dealers are
selling in small lots, not over 400
pounds to a customer, aud only to
those customers who are absolutely
without fuel.
There is enough coal to go around

there will not be any actual distress
