Mines Must Be Kept Going Full
Time In Spring and Summer
to Prevent Serious Short
age Next Winter.
IMMEDIATE ACTION URGED.
Man Who Does Not Thus Cooperate
With Fuel Administration and Rail-
roads Takes His Place With the
Stacker Who Dodges Service at the
Front or Refuses to Buy Bonds.

Greater cooperation in buying coal
at once must be obtained In the West,
Southwest and sections Of the Middle
West, the Fuel Administration an
nounces at Washington, If the mines
are to be kept going full time during
the summer months and the danger
averted Of a serious shortage Of coal
in those sections next fall and winter.
official reports to the Fuel Admin
istra tion show that In the States Of
Illinois, Michigan, Kansas, Missouri,
Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas, New Mex
leo, Iowa, Utah, Washington, Colorado,
Wyoming and Montana consumers Of
coal are not placing their orders In the
volume expected, or in quantities nee
essary to insure against winter short
age. This Is true also, though to less
extent, in Ohio and Indiana.
Apparently the consumers in these
districts have not yet realized the full
gravity Of the situation" the Fuel
Administration states. THE mines In
those sections must be kept going
They can be kept going only If coal
ordinarily ordered later In the year Is
ordered now. The domestic consumer
who delays placing his order Is taking
a chance Of having an insufficient cold
weather supply; the industrial user
who fails to order his coal now 1s
almost certain to face q shutdown
later on

Better New Kind Than None.

There has been notable neglect Of
certain grades Of coal that are now
available in large volume and clamor-
GUS demand, In certain quarters at
least, for specific Goals that various
consumers have used for a number Of
years. While there is at the present
no shortage Of coal in the west, there
may be q denial Of selection Of the pre-
else coal most desired. If you seek to
do your part place your order now for
the coal nearest at hand and Of which
there is large available tonnage and
get your bins filled Immediately.
THE Fuel Administration Is anxious
with every means at Its command to
secure the hearty cooperation of the
public and to move into the bins of
domestic users particularly their full
years coal supply before the first day
of October. Whether 1t succeeds or
not is entirely dependent upon your
own personal attitude and action.
IF the anxiety of the Administration
seems to you overdrawn proof of the
necessity Of its recommendation and
the propriety of the warning will reach
you in full force during the coming fall
and winter, when coal will not be
available and your vigorous effort may
result in another failure to secure an
adequate supply. The Indifferent coal
consumer promises to find himself in
the coal line during the severe Pc
RODS of the coming winter and COM
PEELED to accept a day to day supply of
fuel and possibly be entirely denied"

Same Price World Over.

These facts are chiefly responsible
for the generally prevailing idea that
the home merchants do not sell goods
as cheaply as the mail order house.
They do sell the same quality of goods
that the mail order house sells as
cheaply as the mail order house sells
1t but they cannot sell the standard
guaranteed products of responsible
manufacturers at the same price at
which the mail order house sells it's
nameless, unbranded merchandise.
Standard goods bearing a registered
trademark sell for the same price the
world over and the manufacturer
guarantee stands back of them when
they are sold in the smallest village
in the country just the same as when
they are sold in the stores of the larg-
est cities.
This is what the national advertis-
ing of the manufacturers has done
for the consumers of the country. 1t
has enabled them to go into their home
stores and buy merchandise which they
know from past experience or from
the reputation and guarantee of the
manufacturer will give them satisfac-
ton. They are not buying blindly
and hopefully when they buy from the
merchants in their home towns. They
are buying with the knowledge that
they are getting their moneys worth.
When they buy advertised brands they
are getting double protection, that
which is afforded by the responsibility
of the retail merchant and that which
is given by the reputation and guar
antee of the manufacturer. When they
buy the unknown brands of goods
that are offered by the mail order
houses they are getting neither kind
of protection.

BUYER PROTECTED
BY ADVERTISING
Manufacturer Must Maintain
Quality of Goods Bearing
His Name.
HIS REPUTATION AT STAKE.
Man Who Buys Standard Brands
From Local Merchants Knows
That tie Is Getting Full
Value for His Money.

Copyright, 1917, Western Newspa per Union)
Time was when advertising did not
occupy the place in the world Of trade
that it does today. 1t has not been
so very many years ago that the peo-
pie were suspicious of advertising
They were inclined to believe that the
merchant was trying to fool them
with his advertising, that he exag-
gerated the value of the merchandise
he advertised and took that method
of trying to get them to buy goods
that he could not sell by the old estab-
Hshed methods of merchandising
Those days are gone. The public
now realizes that it is the greatest
beneficiary of advertising.
Advertising has done more in a de-
cade to establish certain standards in
merchandise than could have been ac-
complished in hundred years by any
other agency. The manufactures who
a few years ago merely made and sold
clothes now makes and sells the Blank
brand of clothes. The man who for
merly just made hats now makes
Blanks hats. And SO it is with every
thing that one buys today. The manu-
facturer, by his advertising, has built
up his business around a trade name
and If he is to continue in business
he must protect that trade name by
maintaining such a high standard of
quality that people, when they buy his
products will know just what they are
getting. The consumer, when he goes
into store today, does not buy mer-
chandise blindly, with the HOPE that
it will prove to be worth the money.
He buys standard goods that bear the
trademark Of the manufacturer and
that are backed by the reputation not
only of the merchant who sells them
but the manufacturer who makes them.
This has been brought about by ad,
vertising.

Buy NoW-EVerybodyl

"The man who does not do his part
by anticipating his needs and cooper
ating with the Fuel Administration
and the railroads by ordering his coal
now takes his place with the man who
avoids service at the front or refuses
to buy Liberty Bonds Every coal
user should buy and store coal now to
meet his requirements so far as he is
possibly able to do so.
Every state and local representative
of the Fuel Administration Is ready to
help the coal consumer in every way
possible to get an appropriate and ad-
equate supply of coal Every day that
passes decreases the margin Of time
in which this assistance may be given.
IF you can't get the grade of coal
that you have been getting in the past
take another grade that you can get.
1t is better to have in your bins coal
Of a grade slightly different from what
you have been using in the past than
to 90 into winter without any coal at
all.
Consumers who do not order their
coal now are gambling on the future.
There Is reason to believe that If ey
cry one anticipates his coal require
ments and puts in his order now no
one will have to do without next win
ter If. however there Is delay In or
dering coal it is more than likely that
production during the fall and winter
will be insufficient to meet the needs
of every one.

No Reputation to Protect.


All this applies to the retail mer-
chants as class but it does not ap.
ply to the mail order business. The
man or woman who buys goods from
q catalogue house is not protected by
the manufacturer Of the goods for the
reason that most manufacturers who
sell goods to the mail order houses
do not place their names upon the
goods and therefore have no reputa-
ton to protect.
The great majority of articles listed
and illustrated in the mail order cata-
among manufacturers as stencil"
stuff. These articles bear the name of
the mail order house which sells them
instead of that of the manufacturer
who makes them. 1t can readily be
understood that any manufacturing
concern which turns out goods that
do not bear it's name or trademark is
likely to be a very unreliable inStitu-
ton. 1t is not building up any repu-
tatiOn on the quality of its goods for
it's products have nothing to distin-
guish them from the products of any
other concern. With no reputation to
sustain and no chance of creating a
general demand for its goods the only
concern of manufacturing institu-
tion of this kind is to make stuff as
cheaply as possible in order to obtain
the largest possible profit on it's prod
nets

tons follow:

the great ideals and principles that

which. In many particulars. a pro-
fessedly Christian society has swung
far away.
I'VE. therefore call upon our mem
bers and people to face frankly the
situation and to bring their lives
under the searching test of Gods
Truth. that sincere repentance may
enable us TO turn aside from the
worldly spirit and standards that have
alienated our hearts from God and
impoverished us in spiritual expe-

And we also call our people to
earnest prayer, believing that over
all rules the God OF infinite power
and wisdom and love. We do not
