EXPECT ANOTHER
COAL Price RISE
Local Dealers See Boosts
Coming Because of New
Pennsylvania Taxes
MEANWHILE PUBLIC
REFUSES TO BUY

Another advance in price OF an
thracite coal is looked for by retail
coal dealers Of the city next Friday,
July /. How much It will be, how
ever. is an open question.
Two bulls taxing coal were passed
by the recent session OF the State
Legislature of Pennsylvania. sitting
At Harrisburg. One OF these bills
becomes effective July 1. the other
on August !. The one which viii
take effect next Friday is expected
10 add about - cents to the cost
of a ton of coal at the mines
In addition to this rise, local
dealers also say they expect an an
nouncement OF an increase by the
Wholesalers. entirely independent OF
the one expected 20 be tackled on
because Of the new Pennsylvania
tax law.
Some of the local dealers today
said they did not expect to add this
latter increase to their customers
bills. As one dealer remarked,
rather gloomily, 1T wouldn't make
much difference what we charge, /
guess, as the public has stopped
buying coal anyhow"
p. r. Pusey. head Of the coal
company bearing his name, has just
returned from a meeting or the

sociation at Harrisburg. He said no
one had been able TO figure definitely
what the increase IN prices would

Kid Brother Will
Rival Man O War

Playfellow is not as good as horse

But he is coming fast now. His
running is becoming smoother. He
has speed and stamina.
The colt was sold to the Rancocas
Stables a short time ago for s115.-

In his first race after the transfer
ne finished third under heavy
weight handicap.
As a two-year-oid Plsyfeilow had
an uneven gait He has been grow
ing fast during the past year and
has not responded TO training like
other colts Of his age.
But he has the stuff In him. There
is no doubt Of Il.
II he does turn out TO be a great
runner, II will prove the theory Of
breeding and show that Man o. War
was not an accident
We believe that the kid brother Of
the greatest horse OF all times win
be just as great in another year.
War Sentiment
II is natural that the sentiment OF
the World War should be reflected
In the Dempsey Carpenter battle.
One would naturally suppose that
the English fight fans would string
with Carpenter, the Fronchman.
They do.
Also you would expect 70 ind the
/ Germans favoring Dempsey over

/ Frenchman.

PIG IRONS IRONS BASIC PRODUCTS
Metal Sold In Three FormS-cast,
Wrought and Stcel--ono OF Most
Valuable Minerals.

Iron is the most valuable metal In
the world to man, because It is Of
more use I'm more ways.
II has been known to men from earli-
est times. Savages smelted II. 1t Is
generally found compounded with other
substances such as carbon. These
other substances have to be burned
out in order to have pure iron.
Iron is sold in three fonms-cast
iron, wrought iron, and steel. Cast
iron Is brittle and hard, like the lid
on the kitchen range. Wrought iron
can be hammered out fiat or made into
wire or welded. 1t is quite soft steel
is also capable of being hammered
out flat and welded. Its peculiar prop
erty is that when tempered 1t be-
comes very hard--so hard that a sharp
edge can be put on it--so hard that 1t
will, when edged, cut wrought iron.
Iron which has been melted and
poured into mold in some form de-
sired for use, such as part of a stove,
is called cast iron. Iron which is cast
roughly from the smelted ore in order
to be used to make cast iron wrought
iron or steel is called pig iron.
Pudding is the name of the process
by which pig iron is made into wrought
iron. 1t is done in a furnace in which
the carbon is burned from the pig
iron.
Pig iron contains the most carbon,
then comes steel and then wrought
iron.
Steel can be made directly from pig
iron by what is known as the Bessemer
and Open-hearth processes. Formerly
it was made from wrought iron.

GINKGO TREE is FROM JAPAN
Regarded by Park Commissioners EV-
erywhere as One Of the Most Sat
isfactory Shade-Makers.

One of the exports from Japan
which has met universal favor and
unqualified approval in Europe and
America is the GinkgO tree. You will
see hardly public park on the conti-
nent or in England without it, and, as
for American cities, "Jlnkgo' is one of
the park commissioners standbys.
Washington, District of Columbia, has
adopted it as it's "Oftical street tree"
whatever that means. Because 1T Is
so hardy under city conditions-that
explains its popularity, in part. 1t is
also a large and tall tree, peerless for
shade.
Its name has proved almost impreg-
nable to western tongues. Some one
has said that to get two tree experts
who will agree on the spelling, you
would have to go to Japan-and there
they dodge the issue and draw pic
ture" Ginkgo, gingko, jinkgo, ginko,
iinka-are a few occidental variations
of the puzzle. Many tactful persons
have adopted "Maidenhair Tree" as a
way Quits long-petioled leaves are
quite the shape of the so-called
maidenhair fern of American woods
Although classified bOtanically among
the "evergreens' or "cOnifers," 1t Is
deciduous, and its cone is not cone
at all, but a fruity covered seed.
