printed that the selection of the pre-

In view of the shortage OF the nut
size of. anthracite and the accumula-
ton of large stocks Of the stoves Md
egg sizes of anthracite and the very
great need for anthracite in North
Dakota, It is suggested that all retail
coal dealers for whom orders for nut

or companies, the order remaining un
filled, notify the dock companies with
whom such orders have been placed
Of their willingness to accept substi-
tuition Of the stove or egg sizes when
