DANTELSON AND PUTNAM NEWS

normal supply o8 coal will be delivered in Danielson during the coming winter season, Fuel Administrator Frederick B. Cunneen stated Wednesday morning. This prediction also is backed by vari- ous authorities on prospective coal sup ply. In the meantime the community has come through November without great hardship, though the shortage of fuel has been more or less fncoTenient for many who have heating plants in which only anthracite coal has been used heretofore Many are unfamiliar with methods of using soft coal or wood to best advantage in heaters; hence the inconvenience.
 It would appear at the present time that the consumption of coal in Daniel son will not run much over 50 per cent of normal in this town the coming win ter. In ordinary years several hundred tons would have been burned at this date. As the restriction on supply Is to continue throughout the winter, \ may be assumed that the total con- sumption for the present cold weather period win not be mrcn over ham what usually is the amount ~ This may or may not mean money saved for frel buyers. In some cases good flreuer hope to make a saving  cemsber 1, with a low fuel cost record.
