PUBLIC AND DEALERS URGED TO LAY IN
NEXT WINTERS COAL SUPPLY AT ONCE
&C. B. W.

The most urgent calls are being issued by the
fuel administration for the public to lay in their
next winters coal supply now, declaring this
is the only way for people to make certain that
they will have it when the need comes Tt is
shown out that a severe coal shortage next win
ter not be avoided if general buying is
postponed until late in the year, land that in any
event coal will be increasingly difficult to pro-
cure as autumn approaches and runs it's course
The editorial writer of The Chicago Evening
Post points out that coke and smokeless coal
are unobtainable in some parts of the country;
moreover, that the governments s war work is
taking over the available supply. Movement of
troops and supplies is increasing month by
month. Traffic congestion, always heaviest in
the fall, will be heavier than ever The writer
says:
you cannot get coal cheaper by waiting.
The price will go up September 1 /; so order now
Fill your bins, and if your bins do not hold
enough for the winter, store the remainder in
your yard or anywhere else you can put it..
Raymond b. Durham, chairman of the Cook
County Fuel Administration Committee in
statement issued this week, says:
Industries are bound to be shut down next
winter owing to shortage of fuel unless the
Illinois and Indiana mines are kept running at
full capacity during the next two or three
months
Yet the coal mines of these two state are
shutting down for lack of orders
The reason is that the people and industries
who will need coal next winter are not buying
and storing it.
"Coal is available NOW There is only one
way to avoid worse famine than last winter
"BUY AND STORE COAI-NOW."
Washington dispatches of April say that
several factors enter into the situation which
make 1t alarming. Shortage of coal cars at the
mines again has become so grave that fuel ad-
ministration officials say vigorous action will
have to be taken at once by the railroad admin
lstratlon to maintain equality Of supply at all
bltuminous mines if another coal famine next
winter is to be avoided
1T is pointed out by fuel administration Off
clals that Industries nonessential to the prose-
cutlon Of the war will face shut downs next
winter, unless they take the precaution to pro-
vide full coal supplies. They can expect no
favors
Circulars are being issued to dealers. urging
them to place their order for their entire year's
needs at once, and declaring that the fuel adj
mlnlstratlon absolves itself from all responsible
lty unless this is done. The circular reads:
Ii you have storage space for your year's
supply take it all in now If YOU haven + trv
and make space. Fill up every space YOU can
with coal, until you have enough to keen Won
warm until March 81 next

PRINTING AND PUBLISHING HOUSE

Zion Printing and Publishing House original
ly was established for the printing Of Zion liter
ature, such as Leaves of Healing, The Theocrat,
tracts and announcements In order however,
to provide additional employment for our peo-
pie, it was decided to solicit good, clean, com
mercial printing.
The success Of this plant has been remarkable
Today it completes successfully with leading es-
tablishments in Chicago and has built up an
enviabe reputation among printers
A large amount Of catalog work is done for
firms in Chicago and for the large concerns in
cities along the North Shore A speciality is
made of high grade three and four color work

BAKING INDUSTRY

One Of the most fourishing institutions in
Zion is the Baking Industry. It was started in
1911 in a modest way in a frame building. From
the first general line of cookies and crackers
were manufactured, as well as bread, cakes and
pies. The business grew until the equipment
proved inadequate and it became necessary to
move into larger quarters
Last June year ago, this institution moved
into its present location, a splendid red pressed
brick building along the line Of the Chicago &
Northwestern Railway. Machinery Of the new
est design was purchased, including one Of the
largest ovens in the country, and the plant was
enabled to more than double its former output
The business steadily increased, reaching an
annual volume Of about $35OO00.
Several months ago, it became apparent that
the equipment had again become inadequate to
handle the volume Of trade. Continually the
management was compelled to refuse additional
business from large firms for the reason that it
was impossible to take care Of it and at the
same time meet the requirements Of hundreds
OF smaller customers scattered over adjoining
states. AS result another large oven Of the
same size and capacity as the first one has just
been installed, thus nearly doubling the capacity

people of this great part of the coun-
try will do whatever their Govern
ment asks them to do in this crisis.
I believe this after working with these
men through two Liberty Loan cam
paigns and having pretty we'll learned
their processes of reasoning and their
inclinations.
81 do not have this faith in the
people of the Northwest because
think all of them are patriots, or are
anywhere near perfect.
Il do know, however, that a large
majority of the men in these North
west states understand what this war
means, what part the United States
Government must take in this war if
1t is to be brought to a successful
conclusion.
'They know that the people of the
United States, individually and collec-
lively, must stand by their Gov ern-
ment if it is to accomplish it's great
ambition and bring harmonious peace
to the world.
"They know that America must
finance her Allies and that if America
furnishes the money it means victory.
Every American must do his full
share. l know that the men and
women of the Northwest appreciate
their duty to their Government and
will perform it at whatever cost to
themselves. They have learned that
everyone in America must get under
the load which America is carrying
for the democracy of the world.
Realizing all this and feeling
strongly the righteousness of the
cause, we are soldiers, and whatever
the Government in which we are stock
holders asks us to do, we will do.
'The actual work of selling bonds
in the Fourth Liberty Loan drive in
the Ninth District will begin Sept.
2S and will be completed just five days
later. The work Of organization
throughout the district is being done
now The county chairmen in all
counties are perfecting local organiza-
lions, making the allotments and ar
ranging all the details that will make

lively simple. In great many coun-
ties, probably in the majority of them,
individuals will be notified where and
at what time to buy the bonds allotted
to them and their subscriptions will
be promptly made without solicitation.
How ever county committee de-
cides to carry out the details of it's
campaign will not be material so long
as the results are obtained All any
county has to do is to subscribe the
amount allotted to it and to secure
it properly and without resort to any
methods that cannot be justified.
I'VE have a great big task in front
Of us, but the people of these states
are equal to it. They are not going
to fail to loan the money necessary
to their Government when millions of
our young men are gladly giving the
service which may mean their lives"

Marks Beginning of Strong National and State Co-Opera

Wisconsin of State Fair that will be
"a combination of national and State
resources and educational displays.
This has been a vigorous war year,
during which all American energies
have been bent toward victory in Eu-
rope. Many producers and other work
ers have not taken time from their
toll for relaxation. But year of con-
tinuous, unremitted toll is not for the
best, even during a war year like the
present.
Herbert Hoover says: Work hard,
pray hard, play hard"
That's fine advice.
One, two, three or four days spent
at the 1918 State Fair will send the
man. woman or child who enjoys them
back to daily toll better fitted for
tasks ahead.
No one should attempt to see all of
the State Fair in less than three days

should be in less time.
