STORING OF
COAL NOW
Feul Boss Says Enlarge Bins; Put In
Nearly Normal Supply; Cooperate
With Dealer

Ada, Okla, April 9,-Early storing
OF coal in Oklahoma Is receiving the
attention of consumers. but the at
tention that is given to 1t is in no
wise WHAT 1t ought to be, according
to information given out today from
the office of p. A. Norris, federal fuel
administrator Of Oklahoma If con
sumers want to avoid heatless days,
as some Of the citizens of this state
could not do last winter, there is just
one way to do 1t and that is to ger
the coal IN the bins this spring and
early summer
If the bins are not large enough
the consumers ought to begin to en-.
large them At least, provision should
be made to store not less than rs
per cent or so per cent of tho normal
years supply. It would be still bet
ter to store 90 per cent.
Many dealers in tho state are writ.
ing that they want to buy coal now.
but the consumers do not seem to he
interested, and the dealers them
selves do not have the storage ca.
pacity. 1t Is UP to the dealers aud
the consumers to work in co-opera-
tion in this matter and take care Of
the problem now.
The question of storing coal in a
time of plenty,-that is when trans
portation difficulties are at mini
mum-was first agitated i'll New York
where it was proposed to use the old
reservoir in Central Park as stor-
age place for summers surplus OF
coal so as to avoid any possibility of
a coal famine in the winter
1t has remained for the state of
Mississippi to show itself the most
forehs led in the campaign to get
in its coal early. The legislature OF
Mississippi has just passed an act
the municipalities within
its border to establish, maintain and
operate municipal coal and wood yards
