NO TaINEDIATE PROSPECTS FOR
CHEAPER COAL LOCALLY
The belief held by many, even retail
dealers, that coal prices are going to
drop in the near future, because of the
contemplated reduction in freight rates
is not encouraged in the least by those
handling this commodity at the source
of supply. In an article in the Goa
Review, publication devoted to that
industry. those who are supposed to be
in E position to know, state that thu
report that freight rates are going tc
hh reduced very soon are without foun
iation and this precludes the possibil
'ty Of = reduction in the price of coal
tor several months to come The article

However, according to the Duluth
Herald Of ian. :, retail prices were
reduced on hard coal 20 cents and on

now Go. The farmer from Argentina
can now market his corn in New
York City for twelve ent less than
the freight on corn from the Missis-
slppl River to New York. The cost
or shipping one bushel of wheat from
Chicago to Liverpool is as great as
the cost of shipping two and one-half
bushels from Odessa, on the Black
Sea, III South Russia, to Liverpool.
The estimated cost of the entire st.
Lawrence project is three hundred
million dollars. The estimated cost
of the barge canal from Chicago to
the Mississippi River is sixty mil
lion dollars. The cost Of a canal
from Lake superior dawn the st.
CrolX River has, so far as we know,
not been estimated, but would not be
more than the Illinois River line.
The total cost of the three projects
would be less than one-fourth our

bilitieS of a greater future for agri-

BAD SHOOTING

One Of the most shocking trage-
dies which has occurred recently
happened at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. John Starkey. in Mt. Gay, Logan
county, on Saturday before last,
when after a brief but violent quar-
rel arising from the determination
OF Mrs. Stakcy TO attend a party
TO be given by her daughter, and to
which Starkey objected, the latter
procured a shot gun and shot his
wife through the shoulder and then
inflicted "a fatal wound in his own
head. The injured couple were
hastily conveyed TO the Logan Hos
'pital. Starkcy's wound was at once
pronounced fatal, the self directed
shot having entered behind the right
car and torn off the back part of the
head. He displayed remarkable vi
tallty, however, and lived until Mon-
day might. Mrs. Starkey's injury
was in the left shoulder, the charge
of shot entering just above the arm
pit and practically severing the
member from her body. There be-
ing no hope of saving the arm, the
,amputation was completed soon
after her arrival at the hospital. She
Is reported as having splendid
chance to get well.

YEAR OF THIRTEEN MONTHS.

II IS proposed that year be 13
months. - weeks and 364 days
with the odd day called "New Year,
Day, to come between December
81 and January |. In Leap Year the
odd day would be called Leap
Year Day" and would come between
June 30 and July 1. The extra
month is to be called 'Nern' because
1t takes "Ncrnal Equinox" and
would begin spring.
by the arrangement outlined in 4
bill introduced in the House by Rep
rcscntativc Schall. of Minnesota
each day of the month wllld always
cmc on certain day. Easter would
Tall on March 14, corresponding
with the present April 9, and would
always be the ninety-ninth day of
'thc year. The proponents declare
that this Simplication will dispense
With the need for printed calendars,
saving about $25.000,00O n wear
from this alone.
This move has been on foot in one
way OF another since The BEGINNING
of the Goth century. If it should be-
come universal, it would be highly
practical and be a great time saver.
1t would mean thirteen months OF
20 adys each; each month would be-
gin and end on the same day in a
given week; and each correspond
ing day of a given week would be
ON the same date in each month. For
instance should a month, under the
project begin on Monday. every
month forever thereafter would be-
gin on Monday, and all Mondays
would always be the 1st, 8tl1, 18TH
and 22nd days of each month; Sun
days would be the 7th, 14th, 21st
and 18th days Of each month, and
each day in the week have its regrl-
lar corresponding dates. The Fourth
hf July. Christmas and every other
holiday would come on the same
day of the week each year. Accord
ing to the plan iii the bill above New
Year would be special day each
year and not to be counted in any
month. The same would be true
every 18th year as TO Leap Years
Day. New Years Day would be a
day to itself in order to make the
monthly year Of 364 instead of 365
and thus make ii possible to have 13
months Of % days each.

JUDGE KENYON.

Senator Kenyon, of Iowa, leader
OF the discussed agricultural blu<'
and chairman of The senate labor
c4iuinlttcc. has been named by Pres
ldcnt Harding to be circuit Judge
for the Eighth district. Immediately
after receipt Of the nomination. the
senate confirmed it unanimously in
open session. 1t was said Il. the
White House that the President had
appointed Mr.. Kenyon to succeed
the late Judge Walter |. Smith, be
cause of his high regard for the
Senator's ability and because of the
iattcr's known desire TO have a place
on the federal bench. In the SEN
ate. Senator Harrison. Democrat,
Mississippi, after confirmation had
been voted, said that while he was
confident that the appointment Of
MIR. Kenyon was because Of the lat
ter's eminent qualifications, the
question would arise throughout the
agricultural sections Us to whether
the selection was not intended to
drive a wedge into, and ultimately
destroy the agricultural bloc. Sena-
tor Herlin, Democrat, Alabama, de-
clared that with the Kenyon ap-
podntment the "drive to break the
agricultural bloc has been started"
