Suggestions on Storage

Do not pile Iowa screened lump coal
over eight feet high. Coal which Con.
tains much dust or fine particles
should not be piled over four or five
fest high. Iowa steam coal should be
! piled In small piles not over 8 or feet
In height which can be readily moved
q case OF spontaneous heating.
Store = larger size Of coal than is to
) be used, IL possible. The loss due to
stacking will be minimized II this is
done. The larger sizes of coal are
also less liable to take fire spontane.
lously.
Keep out dust as much as possible,
! ~ storing only screened coal, and by
careful handling in piling.
Avoid alternate wetting and drying.
4 Coal stored under cover should be dry
when stored. el7
IL coal is stored in sheds they should

SUBSCRIBE AFTER THREATENED
Patriotism is becoming very intense
in Davis county. Saturday evening at
West Grove $50 citizens demanded
that two men subscribe to the war
fund. On their. refusal one OF them
was led to can Of yellow paint while
the other one was visited by a COM
mittee at his home, and on his refusal
to subscribe to the war fund "a rope
was thrown around his neck by the
citizens and he was led to West Grove.
They were then informed that coat
Of yellow paint awaited them and the
cross bars of telephone pole would
be the finish. They paid to the war
fund 5000 and the local chapter 5000
and were released after being admon-
ished to stop all seditious utterances
and subscribe to all calls made to
support the soldiers in the field hence
forth. The committee then. visited the
homes of several slackers in West
Grove township and on Monday morn
ing each one appeared at the Red
Cross headquarters and gave liberal
subscription. The arrest of two citi-
zens in Grove township on last Friday
by a United States Marshal proves
that Davis county Is going to elimi-
nate all slackers.

and replied will seldom heat again.
Storage under water will prevent
stacking to great extent, and will
prevent any losses due to fire. Many
engineers believe that storage under
water is the only practical way of stor.
ing Iowa steam coal.
The losses due to spontaneous com.
bustion are often not confined to the
coal pile, as records show many disas.
trous fires from this cause. Ordinar-
fly it is difficult to put out fire in a
coal pile with water from hose, as a
crust forms over the fire so the water
cannot reach it and 1t is usually neces-
sary to remove the coal from around
the burning part before the fire can be
put out. If coal pile catches fire,
the entire pile should be spread out to
cool off.

UNION SERMON
BY REV. HYTEN
LARGE CROWD LISTENS TO PAS
SlONATE APPEAL FOR PAT
RIoTlc CHRISTIANITY.

NOTIu EnguSn, May ~. - rev.
r. B. Hyten, pastor Of the Dis
ctples church, delivered the memorial
sermon to large crowd in the Meth
odist church Sunday morning. He
briefly reviewed the past history of
America, pointing out her weaknesses
as well as her points of strength and
In passionate appeal called upon his
hearers to live such lives as would
make democracy safe for the world.
Mr.. Hyten took for his lesson the
story Of Zacchaeus and compared
America with the life of the publican
as told in Luke 1910. He pointed
out that political justice and stability
are the only securities upon which we
can depend for those things which are
worth while. Even our education, our
homes, our industry, our religion, and
all else depends upon the governmeR
being stable and, just.
The men Of the sixties fought to
make this government stable; surely
we ought to so live that this stability
shall continue. There are many
things that must go, for they stand as
national sins. Among these he men
toned the saloon. child labor, white
slavery, divorce, graft, extortion. etc..
etc.
Like Zacchaeus we must stand as q
nation and say, Lord, make us fit to
serve, forgive our national sins, wash
us from our American iniquities and
make us clean for sacrifice.
He closed with glowing tribute to
the American soldier and especially to
the soldier Of the civil war, to whom
we owe so much, and plead that this
generation sacrifice as much to keep
this'~government stable and to make
our nation the leader of the world as
these men did to give 1t its present
standing.
