Coal Profits Allowed.

Maximum gross profits allowable to
the coal dealers of the county were
agreed upon at a conference between
dealers and the fuel committee. All
the dealers except those in Harpers
Ferry are allowed maximum profit
of $500 on every ton of 1000 pounds
on both hard and soft coal delivered
TO consumers. On account of the diff
ficulty of delivery in Harpers Ferry,
dealers there are permitted to charge
S225 a ton profit.
When a consumer hauls coal from a
yard or car, a reduction of so cents
must be made to him. In Harpers
Ferry, he is allowed a reduction of
rs cents a ton if he does his hauling.
A dealer may charge an additional rs
cents a ton for carrying coal from
wagon to consumers bin.

Preparations are being made to re-
open the stone quarries at Kearneys-
vile by the Standard Lime and Stone
Company. The plant there has been
idle for two years or more since a dis
astrous fire destroyed the crusher and
other equipment. The new plant will
be as near fire-proof as steel and con-
crete can make it. Electricity will be
used to operate it. The quarry hole
is filled with water to depth of thirty
feet or more, and unless more power
full pumps shall be installed than were
ever before used, it will take a month
or six weeks to get the water out.
