HIGHER COAL PRICES.

A New York dispatch says that the new wage
settlement for coal miners means an increase
in the price of soft coal of from IS cents to
SIPS ton. That comes from the coal operators.
The representative of the miners union refused
to comment on the price increase in any way
average about Is cents per ton. But that state
ment is rather disturbing in itself. No doubt
the operators will dispute it. It is their inter-
est to make the increased cost of the wage
award appear as big as possible and it is to the
interest of the miners to make it appear as small
as possible. It is quite probable that the truth
lies in between the two figures. But this is a
matter about which there should be no doubt
in the mind Of the public. The latter are rec
onciled to paying enough more for their coal
to absorb the 13 per cent additional advance in
wages granted by the presidential investiga-
ton in it's majority report, but they will not
take kindly to advances in coal prices that go
far beyond that. The president has abolished
the coal price making authority that he exer-
cised as war measure. 1t IS now up to the
coal operators to make any price on their pro-
duct they see fit to make, as we understand it.
But if they are wise they will not abuse this
power by raising the prices more than is nee
essary to absorb increased costs 1t is fact
that congress can still control coal prices, war
or no war, if they feel that the public good re-
quires it, and it is not unlikely that public
demand for such action would swiftly material
ize if they were convinced that they were being
held up The price Of coal for fuel has grown
by leaps and bounds in recent years. 1t now
constitutes heavy drain on the pocket book of
the head Of the family to provide fuel for cook
ing and warmth in his home. It will be to the
interest of the dealers in coal to convince him
that he is not being made victim of unjust
raises in the cost of his fuel That cost will
differ, of course, in different mines and diff
ferent localities. We have heretofore expressed
the belief that the coal mine operators of Mon
tana have not in the past made exhorbitant
profits We do not know of any great fortunes
made by them and we do know of quite num-
Ter of operators of coal mines who have lost
6ney in operating them. But because price
e dtrol is removed it will be wise on their part
- do not seek to advance prices beyond
ete and fair profit, because public opin.
ssIev sensitive on this point and large
3 will certainly arouse suspicion.

COLTS REQUIRE MUCH GRAIN
If Animals Are Compelled to Consume
Large Quantities of siIage They
Develop Slowly.

At the University of Missouri,
colts have grown from 562 pounds
in weight on September Is to S97
pounds on April 81, on a daily ration
of S.42 pounds of one-half shelled corn
and one-half oats and 7.S pounds Of
hay. Colts can consume small guam
titles of silage, but if they are
forced to eat large quantities of silage
they cannot be expected to grow as
much as they would if fed more lib
orally on grain.
Bran, when available, and a small
quantitity of oilmeal may be fed to
advantage to colts. Exercise, fresh wa
ter and good quarters must be fur
nished if best results are to be expect
ed, but it should be borne in mind
that the colt which arrives at its year.
ling form stunted and thin will be
handicapped for the next two or three
years of it's life and may, perhaps,
never fully recover.

STEERS STARTED ON sILAGE
Material Is Bulky Enough to Eliminate
Danger From Overlooking and Is
Much 7elished.

Silage has largely solved the prob
lem Of starting steers on feed. 1t is
bulky enough to eliminate danger from
overeating and unless cattle are ac-
customed to it they rarely eat greedily
Of it at the start, according to George
W. Godfrey of Iowa State college.
Western range cattle that never saw
corn take to silage as quickly as those
Of our native cattle that are not ac-
customed to it. When fed fodder these
western cattle at first pick off the
leaves and husks, leaving the stalks
and ears. With silage they get ac-
quainted with the corn taste at the
start.
When grain is added to the ration, II
spread over the silage, it is more even
ly shared by the steers. Even when
cattle are going at once onto a heavy
grain feed q start with silage is best
as 1t allows a more rapid increase in
the grain ration without danger.

and state agencies tends to displace
many of the private agencies whose
scope of operation is apt to be less
comprehensive, prompt, and reliable.
In addition to this general information,
which might be called routine market
news, various sections in the bureau
of markets render important service
by securing data regarding special
commodities. The fertilizer sections,
for example, have conducted inquiries
and made reports on the supply and
demand for fertilizers and fertilizer
material. The transportation sections
have rendered valuable aid in securing
complete and regular reports on ship
ments, and also by expediting the un-
loading and return of cars. Without
information on these related subjects,
buyers and sellers often would go far
wrong in their bargaining.
Prompt distribution of the informa-
ton which the bureau of markets rep
resentatives secure is essential to its
value. Reports are collected early in
the morning and are telegraphed from
city to city so that they can be pub
lished the same day. In this way mar
ket information for the entire country
is placed in the city dealers hands a
few hours after it is collected, and
often shippers at remote country
points have the data the morning fol-
lowing it's compilation. The reports
show not only actual sales or ship
ments of various commodities, but 9TH
er important items which have bear
ing on the markets.
Scope of information.
In the course of the year the infor-
nation made available through the
United States department of agricul-
ture has to do with the marketing of
between 100000 and 100000 car
loads of live stock and 100000 to 750,-
600 cars of fruits and vegetables. The
movement of cotton, dairy products,
dressed meat, grain, and feed is COW
cred in the same comprehensive fash
ion. 1t has been estimated that the
departments market news reaches
from 100000 to 100000 readers
through the newspapers, while the
market bulletins, reports, reviews, and
special articles go to tens of thousands
of growers and dealers. Obviously, the
growers and dealers profit directly
from the market news service because

Sea Offers.


Prohibition of the killing of sea
otters in Alaskan waters has been ex-
tended by the secretary of commerce
to November 1, 1925. It is hoped that
in the meantime this valuable fur
bearing species, which was pursued
almost to determination, will gain
somewhat in numbers.
The fur of the sea otter is the most
beautiful and most costly of all pelt-
ries. Long before the discovery OF
America the mighty tycoons of Japar
clothed themselves with it's simmer
ing velvet. Early explorers found the
natives of the Aleutian islands and
the Puget sound region commonly
wearing sea otter cloaks, which they
parted with for a trif1e.

The authority back of a market re-
port largely determines its value. Re-
ports from the bureau of markets, Uni
ted States department of agriculture,
are counted of peculiar value in the
maintenance of healthful economic con-
dltions In America because they sup
ply information that is comprehensive,
always up-to-date, and unbiased.
What may be characterized as the
key positions in the governments mar
ket-reporting organizations are the
market stations. These are branches
of the bureau of markets maintained
in nearly a score of the larger cities,
and one of their chief functions is to
collect and distribute. market news re-
lating to several or all of the following
products: Fruits and vegetables, live
stock and meats, dairy products, hay,
grain, and mill feeds and seeds.
Most of the branch offices are con-
nected by leased wire with Washing
ton and receive and distribute market
news daily. The original data are as
sembled and condensed into reports,
reviews and press articles which are
distributed according to the needs of
the market. Most of the men in
charge Of this work have had technical
training and considerable experience
either in production or marketing.

call in the police, but to do his own
investigating. 1t is soon evident
that someone has access to his
rooms. Becoming friendly with
Barbara, he learns that her apart
ments are equally mysterious. She
tells him that several years before
her sister Claire, who lives with
her, had made a runaway mar
riage with an adventurer, from
whom she was soon partc 1, and the
marriage had been annulled- Claire
is engaged to be married and some-
one has stolen documents concern
ing the affair from the Bradford
apartment and is attempting to
blackmail the Bradfords. Nelson
takes Miss Kelly, the telephone

pumping her. German, a hotel de-
tective, recognizes her as the wife
of Lefty Moore, a noted burglar.
