iit for $3.50 ton. he is not receiv-
ing $3.50 for delivering. A very I'M
portant item is apparently over
looked by the consumer who COM
plains at the seeming profteering OF
the retail dealer.
The freight rate from the mine to
the coal yard has become an impor-
tant factor governing the price OF
coal per ton, according TO Mr. Mer-
riam. The rate is said TO be very
high, varying, OF course, with the
distance OF the mine from the source
OF distribution and the distance the
product must be freighted. Chatta-
nooEa's coal supply is drawn from
mines at. distances OF between nifty
and seventy five miles The rate
ranges from si.25 TO $i.75 on the
ton.
The coal situation Mt the mines OF
the Chattanooga district remains
practically unchanged. Some OF the
mines are increasing their working
hours. The demand for domestic
coal is said to have increased TO
some extent last week. Present high
prices are brought about In part, at
least. by the fact that the steam coal
market is rather dull. although a
slight improvement has been noted.
Mine operators must receive enough
for their domestic Goals to make up
for the extremely low prices for In
dustriai conl. which is said to be be-
low the cost OF production.
That there will be a shortage or
coal this winter seems to be gen.
orally conceded by both retail deal
ers and mine operators. The short
age will be due to two factors-a
shortage OF coal cars and shortage
of labor, caused by the general exo-
dus OF aliens 10 their native lands.
will be affected as other
sections. but not TO so great an ex-
tent. The close proximity of the
mines makes II matter of but
day TO get coal on the market from
the mine. and the foreign element in
this district is said to be extremely
small.
The daily coal production OF the
entire country has been running far
short for the first half of the year.
According to the figures OF the United
States geological survey, the coal
production this year to date is about
ten million tons below the total for
The first six months OF last year. Ac-
cording to the last report the daily
average was $4,000 tons, as COM
pared to $4,000 for last year. Yet
here is practically no surplus at the
mines. The coal has simply not been |
mined.

GROUND THE TICKER
rnTT0N

There is not so much rain on the map
this morning, but it is not a dry map
by any means. Drawing line across
the cotton region from west TO east
and the northern half Is dry while the
southern half is wet. Rains have been
heavy in the south Atlantic and also IN
south Texas, but not very large amounts
are indicated in the north central por-
ton of the belt; 1t cannot be called a
favorable crop because the rains have
fallen where the boil weevil damage
has been complained of most; still 1t is
not altogether unfavorable.
GRAIN
Corn is a weather market and like all
weather affairs price fluctuations are
expected to rapid and erratic. Some OF
the best buyers of the previous days
were large sellers yesterday, taking
profits on the theory that the market
was getting somewhat overbought on
account of 10 cent advance in De-
cember in three dayS. The government
detailed report, showing moisture
needed in practically all sections of the
belt and actual deterioration in some
states, was not available before the
close and may have some effect today.
Some of the local weather prophets an
ticipate there will be heavy rains be-
fore the end of the week. and inasmuch
as the grain crop condition is excellent
they look for sharp break.
STOCKS
Market looks to me like one that
should be sold. Wall street is tremen-
dously over extended, perhaps not as
to the buying power. but certainly as
to its proportion of its call upon avail
able credit. Current prices in many in
stances are ahead of values. Such
dealings in usually inactive specialties
as occurred yesterday are danger signs
&c tbA rh0I t,,o rLn or
much like another experience such as
the market went through a week ago.
These extreme movements do the sit
uation much harm. With the excep-
ton of very few stocks l would take
profits and stay out of the market until
after the steel quarterly meeting next
Tuesday. Everybody has the tip on

Davis Will Whip Raw Ma
terial into Varsity Eleven
This Year.

A number Of high school graduates
who will make strong bids for regular
berths on the Varsity football squad
this year, hare written Coach Paul
Davis informing him that they will
report for practice as requested on
September j.
1t is essential that an early start
be gotten in practice this year as the
Varsity will be moulded largely from
raw material Davis is noted for his
ability to take raw material and turn
out formidable men in short period
Of time and it is largely on this that
the university is depending for win
ming eleven.
With the assurance of the coach
that the field is wide open to new men
will be SKINNED from the state by
the university this fall. judging from
the interest shown by some Of the
most prominent of prep school play
ers.
In general way the new men this
year will be of a much higher callber
than in previous years. owing to the
fact that many of them will be older
than the general run of first year coll
]ege men, This is condition due di-
rectly to the war conditions of the
last two years.
Many of the men have received the
best of physical training in the army
while others were forced to wait a
year before entering college and have
been working on farms and will come
to school this year in good condition
to enter a gruelling series of practices
in preparation for the first game on
the university card when the Flicker
tails will meet the powerful Gopher

Fargo Bowling Fans
Plan ORGANIZATION

Fargo, N. D., Sept. with the re-
turn Of many Of the bowlers from
service overseas and in the home
cantonments, bowling prospects for
the fall and winter season are excep-
tional1y bright, according to some Of
the old-timers in the game.
Already there is talk of organizing
a six or eight team league in Moor
head. which is expected to open the
middle of October. according to Man
ager Lutgone of the Comstock bow
ling alleys in Moorhead. Among the
teams that have signed up for mem
bership in the proposed League are
the Palace. Lalley>> Lights, Peterson
Mercantile company, Houglum Furni-
ture company. Keifer Auto company
and Moorhead National Guard. Plans
at the present time are that the five
highest men in the league up to Feb
ruary 1, next year, will be sent to the
I. B. A. tournament with all expenses
paid.
Fargo is certain to have a league
as in previous years and some good
competition is expected this season
from Moorhead, Grand Forks and
jamestown. For more than a decade
Fargo has always been represented at
the International Bowling association
tournaments and her representatives
have come with "the bacon" more

HURRYUP HElVlE
IS SECURED TO
COACH FOOTBALL
High School colors Will
Again Decorate the
Gridiron.

Attorney Henry O'Keefe. Jr., in
sporting parlance, "Hurryup Heinie"
O'Keefe, has again been secured to
whip the Grand Forks highschool
football team into shape this year, ac-
cording to an announcement made by
Superintendent w. C.. Stebbins last
evening. /.
With the return of number Of old
players to school this year the PROS
poets are bright for winning team
according to Mr.. Stebbins.
Coach O'Keefe will start rounding
up his men Immediately and although
the team will probably be comprised
largely of new high school men there
is an abundance Of material that will
be hammered into an eleven that will
again carry the highechool colors on
the gridiron.
O'Keefe is the daddy Of football in
the local schools and the fans are
enthusiastic over the news that he
will again coach the eleven.
Owing to the generally disorganized
conditions due to the war and the
influenza epidemic there was no high
school eleven last fall but with new
men entering school and a number Of
men who played a good game in the
grade school games together with sew
eral old line players it is expected that
Grand Forks High will come back
| stronger than ever.
