ways.
Smoothness, such as pendulum
swing, is something to strive for al
ways.
A few "dont's" for putting are:
Don't move or sway the body. Don't
turn the head to follow the ball.
Don't try TO stab the ball, that is,
hit it and stop the putter immediate
ly at the impact.
A good point in establishing a line
for your ball to follow to the cup is
TO pick out some object on the way
and try to make the ball roll over it.
Practice these points and watch

Then grasp the putter with the
fingers instead of an overlapping
grip and extend the index fingers of
the right hand. This gives the right
hand complete control of the club,

A Vast Coal Reserve

Government biologists, who have been meas
uring Wyoming's coal resources, announce that
in one field, the Gillette, there are more than
Ia, OOO,OO0,OOO tons in workable seams.
That is almost as much coal as has been
mined in the United States to date from all
Mines total Of about 17,800OO0,0OO tons.
Over this vast coal domain are scattered
here and there several country mines and
prospects" from which small quantities Of
coal have been taken for domestic use. Ranch
ers mine their own coal from the nearest out
crops which usually are bluffs along some
stream where the weathered coal is kept
washed away by freshets
All points in the Gillette field are within
60 miles of the nearest railroad shipping points,
railroads running to the north and south of the
field Railroads have been using this coal,
which is Of low -bituminous rank, of a class
often referred to as black Ignite, and burns
readily.
A considerable part Of the coal in the Gillette
field is owned by the United States and is SUBJ
ject to development under government lease.
After the fields now being exploited have
been exhausted, there will be a rush to this
huge untapped coal resource. With talk of
diminishing United States resources general
thing today, knowledge of this vast tract comes
! as astonishing information.

Editorial Comment
Cheerful Tidings
(St. Paul DiSatch)

Business is good in North Dakota, better
than it has been for years. That is the only
conclusion possible from the report published
by the Greater North Dakota association this
month. It shows that tax collections for the
first nine months of the year are Is per cent
greater than for the same period in 1885, that
in some counties the increase has been as high
as $50 per cent; that debts are being paid off,
as for instance in Burleigh county, where seed
loans totaling $4,000 made last spring are
already 80 per cent paid to the county treas
urer; that while there has been lower price
on hogs the increase in cattle prices more than
balances it; that there has been more orderly
marketing of farm products with discriminate
ing selling on the high spots; that the farm
revenue from turkeys alone this year will be
close to 100000, and that poultry produc-
ton this year exceeds that of 1926 from Is to
20 per cent; and finally that the number Of
farm bankruptcies has been half those in 1923
and delinquent taxes just half as great as in
that year.
There is half foot of snow this week in the
state, but with good roads and necessities to
buy, the towns and cities of the state present
a brisk appearance, differing little from the
good times of ten years ago.

per? What is more of a necessity than trans
portation of men and goods? Is it not fact
increasingly evident that, between many
points, the motor vehicle is the only available
transportation? Without the automobile how
would the world 60 on?
Ten years ago Secretary Melons reasoning
would have had some pertinency. But ten
years is long time. Thought, argument,
ideas that are dead are-dead AS to death,
there are no differences of degree or time. The
man or thing that passed yesterday is no more
alive or any the less dead than the man or
thing that passed thousand years ago.
We get to an incontrovertible conclusion:
Mr.. Mellon is growing old.
