ficials OF the United States Railroad
administration During the war the
pooling OF coal was resorted to be.
cause Of the elimination Of much rail.
road switching. Now that the war has
been concluded the operators want to
return to the old practices.
The chief objection against coal
pooling is that 1t is responsible for
various kinds Of coal being mixed,
which does not prove satisfactory to
the consumer who uses a particular
grade OF coal. The meeting was held
in the directors, room Of the National
Coal Association in Washington.
Operators have asked for seven days
free time and 81 a day demurrage
on It'd deWater shipments. On this mat
ter the railroads have asked for an ex-
tension OF one mont his time, which viii

present policy. Pooling at the lakes
is being eliminated at this time.
In regard to lake shipments the op-
orators ask for five days free time"
and 81 q day demurrage. The ran.
roads, in this regard also hold out for
the pooling system, which eliminates
much railroad switching naturally.
Operators have not only expressed
themselves against pools, but positive
ly will not do any pooling other than

While no definite promise could be
obtained from the railroad officials It
is believed that they will agree to the

Field Artillery Band, "The Gopher
Gunners," Minnesota's Very Own. Thc
Secretary was very much elated over
having secured this wonderful musical
organization for the three big days
of the Fair. The Gopher Gunrers
played on July 5th, during the Home
coming celebration and they were re-
ceived with such universal approval
and satisfaction that they decided to
use the band as the one big feature
attraction of the Benton County Fair.
It is said they are paying the band
the largest sum of money ever paid to
a feature attraction and if the Sec
retary's enthusiasm and praise for the
Gopher Gunners is indicative of their
ability as musicians, the treat will be
one worth going many miles to hear.
