NEXT WINTERS FUEL

1t isn't a bit too early to begin preparations for
getting next winters fuel. The northwest has been
very fortunate this year. We able to obtain a
fair quantity Of anthracite and biuminous coal and
the output OF the Ignite mines in state has
been so increased that Ignite in fairly large guam
titles has been available with which to piece out.
We going to get through the very nicely.
But we may well accept the probability right
now that little anthracite biuninols coal will be
shipped into this territory during 1913. TO get that
coal here requires very long haul, and transpora
ton for other purposes will be in such great demand
that the moving Of freight unnecessarily cannot be
permitted. The people Of North Dakota, and many
Of those in Minnesota, can be supplied with fuel more
conveniently from the North Dakota Ignite mines
than from the cast, and it is to be expected that
orders will be issued requiring that this be DONE
i.ignitc production has been greatly increased
this year. 1t must be still further increased. And
he sensible thing will be for the people Of the north
west to arrange for supply Of Ignite early in the
season. long before the movement Of the farm crops
crowds the railroads to their capacity.
Ignite is a more bulky fuel in proportion to heat
ing value than other Goals, therefore greater sor
age space must be provided The experience Of this
winter will have shown many people what is needed

NEGLECTED STORES OF WHEAT

Imperative necessity compels me to cable YOU
in this blunt way,' said Lord Rhondda in his APP
peal for 100000 bushels of our wheat. Mr..
Hoover points to sharp and distressing reduction
OF ratlons as evidence Of an 'acutc situation in
the countries Of our European allies. Undoubtedly
England is greatly in need of the wheat and we are
confident that it will be sent to her. although the
proposed reduction OF consumption by 80 per cent
will not alone yield the surplus that is required if
our government keeps its promises to neutras and
the Belgians. These, with the 75,OOOOOO call for
not less than l30000000 bushels. and 80 per cent of
the wheat remaining here is not more than three
fourths Of this quantity.
The appeal IS made to nation whose wheat crops
