LEE GETS SIPS
In an interview with a former coal
hauler from the Lee mines. a Pro-
ducers News reporter was informed
that a ton eff coal is sold from the
Lee mine for $3.50 a ton. Of this
amount, the coal miner receive SIPS
Lee receives $1.25 and the haulers
receive $1.0O. The miners furnish
their own carbide, fuse and powder
for blashing and the coal hdulers
furnish their own equipment and
feed for their teams which is very
high at this time, while Lee sees that
the coal is properly braced, SO that
the miners will be safe from injury
In mining the Ignite, which the team
ster said would amount to but a few
cents per ton. The best that a man
and team can haul from either eff the
Lee mines to Plentywood is two loads
Of coal per day or four tons in all,
the interviewer said, and this would
make $500 per day for man and team,

WORKERS WANT
FAIR PROPOSITION

On the other hand while there were
many coal haulers, each receiving
$1.OO per ten for hauling Ignite or
$500 per day, the coal hauler said,
Mr.. Lee was receiving his S1.25 a ton
from all Of them or many times what
each of them received who did the
actual work Of delivering the coal.
OTHER MINES ALLOW
LIVING WAGE
The coal haulers who struck at the
Lee mine maintain that they can re
ceive a living wage from hauling coal
from the Richardson mine and that
they can produce what they consider
a much better grade Of coal for $500
a ton, and they then receive enough
to keep their outfits going.

The teamsters who quit the Lee
coal mines are receiving much en-

most people seem to prefer cream
color or white or light gray paint.
This soils pretty fast. A coat Of
fresh paint every other year, when
these colors are used, is needed
especially in Indianapolis.
For the home owners who want a
paint that will last long and look
well, I'd recommend a medium or
dark gray. That color is prepared
by mixing little black coloring
matter with white lead, and it takes
so little that the paint contains
more pure white lead than there is
in any other color"

HOUSE PAINTING MADE
EASY BY CASH TERMS
Local Decorator Originates InstaIment Plan for Annual
Cleanup,

Just about this time Of the year
many Indianapolis home owners take
look at the family residence. and.
with a regretful sigh, say:
The old house needs a coat or
two OF paint this springl Even one
coat OF cream color or a clean fresh
gray would make it look like a new
place. II we had It all paid for and
weren't paying for the fiivver and

twice what II cost TO the value of
the place in case we wanted TO sell
1t, not to mention the improvement
1t would make in the neighborhood.

cash all in a lump to have a house

IT got t. thinking II over" said
Nash, land the more thought the
better the idea seemed. Folks buy
things on payments and there's not
many who have cash on hand to
pay for house painting-especially

In 1912 Marcus, then a young man,
came to Indianapolis from Russia
and went to work as a laborer in
one OF the packing plants for a sal
airy OF IL cents an hour. How he
managed to live on this and save
money is a matter worthy of the
consideration of a financier. but he
did, nevertheless-not only lived but
married. Little by little, the young
mans savings grew. and in 1916 he
reached that point in his business
ventures where he was able to Dur-
chase three used tires and hang
them out in front OF the little frame
house adjoining his present store
room.

Marcus said. speaking Of the begin.
nings from which, his business has
grown, my wife said to me,
Wouldn't It be fine II we could have
money enough to buy twenty old
tires to sell?' And, by and by. we
did have that much money. and !
bought more tires, and still more,

filled the brick building and four
yards. The brick building i now

growing. So I am convinced that
