Blind cultivating saves a
lot of work in keeping pota-
toes or corn clean. Set the
two horse cultivator shovels
to throw in and go over the
rows so as to leave a ridge of
soil over the row. Then
when the field is narrowed
the tops of the ridges will be
scraped down, the Jumps will
go first leaving only fine soil
where the plants will dome
up and the harrow will catch
any weeds that start in the
row. The cultivation can be
continued till the corn or DO
tatoes are up several inches.
This saves labor in keeping
the rows clean.
An opportunity seldom
equalled is now being offered
by the United States navy
to enroll in the naval reserve
force and remain on inactive
duty for an indefinite period.
Advices to this effect have
just been received from Lieu

of the Minneapolis recruiting
station, in charga of naval re-
cruiting interests in Mimi

Inactive duty, the dispatch
indicates, allows men to re

spective occupations, some
times for months, before be.

time can be set for the call
ing of new recruits into active
service, tho probabilities are
that men who enroll now will
not be called before fall. The
now order does not exclude
draft registrants. All men in
the draft who secure certi-
ficates from their local boards
to the effect that they are not
required to fill any current
quotas of the national army,
are eligible. All branches of

SHORTAGE OF SOFT
COAL IS EXPLAINED
BY FUEL DIRECTOR
Greater Consumption by the
Railroads and Factories
Given as Main Cause
of Conditions

New York, February D.--Greater
consumption of bituminous coal by
railroads aud factories are some of
the reasons assigned by the federal
fuel administration Mt Washington for
the existing scarcity, according to
statement received by the local fuel
administrator and given out tonight
Government estimates of the production
Of bituminous coal in 1917, announced
January Z, last, were 5440Oo.ooO net tons
an increase of 100000 over the previous
year.
The railroads which are the largest
i consumers of bituminous coal, increased
their consumption in 1917 between 1900.
90 and 100000 tons over that of 1916,
the statement pointed out. while btumin-
Gus coal going into the coke industry in
creased 100000. Among industrial plants
the increase was such as to account for
about so per cent of btuminous coal
mined east of Illinois and north of Mary
land. This does not include New Eng
land. where the increase was between IA
and 10 per cent.
ALABAMA PRODUCTION
Illinois and Indiana showed the most
notable gain in tonnage. the statement
continued. and in Alabama the produce
non beginning with May was greater
than in the corresponding months of 1916
Production in all the coal states west of
the Mississippi also was larger.
In another statement, also received
here, the national fuel administration de-
clared that expectation Of bitumlnous
coal was not an important factor in the
fuel shortage"
aOficial returns from the department
of commerce." the statement said, show
that during the first II months Of 1911
the United States exported 19,641S11 tons
of bituminous coal This compared with
i7,740391 in 1916"
The greater part of this coal went tf
Canada. which received 14.s2ses tons
NO COAL TO ITALY
In regard to the report that especially
large quantities of coal had been sen
TO Italy, the statement added:
THAT this was not the case is seel
when the reports show that the forward
ing to that country for the entire ]
months were only IS, AS tons. This
