PURCHASES OF COAL
SHOW SEASONAL GAIN
Recent Business Has Been Chiefly
in Domestic Sizes for
Winter Needs.


NEW YORK, December 10.-Cold
weather in the last week of November
caused a sharp increase in activity in
the bituminous coal markets of the
country, as compared to what was
otherwise an uneventful month, Coal
Age reports. Demand, however, was
largely confined to domestic sizes, as
the business depression continued to
initiate against any real buying for in
dustrial use.
Slack and screenings continued to be
the stumbling block in the market.
Former efforts 10 stabilize the position
Of these sizes by cutting production
were nullified by the increased demand
for domestic Goals, with the result that
they lost ground as the month ad-
vanced.
November production Of bituminous
coal is estimated at 81, ,422 900 net tons
a decrease of 6,728,000 tons from Oc-
tober's output and 9,092 900 tons below
November, 1929, production. Anthracite
production is placed at 5,207,00 net
tons for last month. which compares
with $4,000 tons in the preceding
month, and $500, 900 tons in November
3 year ago.
The Coal Age index of spot bitumi-
nous prices preliminary for November
settled at 146ls, comparing with 14994
in October Corresponding weighted
average prices were $l.7635 last month
as against S1.81 in october.
Mild weather and purchases for stocks
in October had an adverse effect on the
anthracite markets in November How
ever, a cold snap at the end of the
month stimulated retail buying and, tc
some extent, industrial purchases
Chestnut, stove and egg were the lead
ing domestic sizes. Egg was hard tc
move. In the steam division buckwheat
as usual, was the leader. Rice and bar.

ment market also show that one must
go back to 1925 or before to equal
present low quotations.
Much OF todays selling could be
traced to tax selling. to adjustment of
bond house inventories and, to a limited
extent, to professional short selling.
Money rates were unchanged, with 90
day time money at to ga per cent.
Volume was lower than on Tuesday.
High-grade issues were firm from the
opening. Aachison general As, Cana
dian Pacific As, Pennsylvania 412s,
Frisco A As, Union Pacific As, Chesa-
peake Corporation SIS, Inland Steel, AIS,

NEW HOME DEMONSTRA-
TION PROJECT
Planning and Making OF Chill
dren's Clothes

A series of demonstrations
in the planning and making Of
clothes for children is an
nounced by Miss Pancoast
Home Demonstration for Cecil
county. She is now making
arrangements to hold them at
points in the county which
will be most convenient for
those who desire to attend.
The project, according to Miss
Pancoast, is especially design
ed to help mothers solve the
many problems which are en-
countered in providing an ade-
quate supply of suitable clothes
for rapidly growing, active
children, and she is anxious
that just as many of the moth
ers in the county as can posi-
bly, do so shall take advantage
of this opportunity.
Each demonstration will oc-
cupy an entire day and will in
clude clothing for girls and
boys, of ages up to twelve years
for girls, and up to six for
boys. Among the garments
which will be on display
and used for illustrative pur-
poses will be clothes for the
baby, romepers that are easily
made, bibs that a small child
can put on, dresses for girls UP
to twelve, suits for boys up to
six years, sun suits, shoes and
stockings and underwear.
With actual garments, which
she has made for illustration,
Miss Helen Shelby, clothing
specialist of the University of
Maryland Extension Service,
will attend each demonstration
and show just how the gar
ments are made and point out
their important features. An
opportunity will also be given
those who attend to examine
the garments in which they
are particularly interested, and
time will be allowed for cut
ting. Exact dates and places
for demonstrations will be an
nounced as soon as the sched-
ule is complete, and they will
be held about the first to the
middle of April, according to
Miss Pancoast.

CECIL CIRCUIT COURT
Grand Jury Report-NeW jail
and Court House Are
Recommended

The Grand Jury for March
term of Cecil Circuit Court, in
session at Elkton, completed
it's labors Wednesday last, and
was discharged.
The Jury examined 40 wit
nesses, found 20 presentments
and 20 true bills, and dismissed
three cases..
After a visit to the county
jail the Jury incorporated the
following in their report: 1--WE
find that the Jail facilities are
entirely inadequate and blot
on the good name of Cecil
county. We recommend the
erection of a new County Jail.
The Grand Jury finds the
County Court House dilapidat-
ed, unsanitary, unsuited to
present needs of the county
business and unsafe as fire
hazard, endangering indispen-
sable records. We recommend
the building of a County
Court House Of such character
as shall be adequate for the
present and future needs Of
Cecil county; said Court House
and Jail to be paid for by a
county bond issue.
The Grand Jury believes that
with the increased taxable
basis, due to the completion of
the Conowingo dam, the rec
commended bond issue can be
retired in a reasonably short
time without increase in the
county tax rate, and without
restricting other necessary ac-
Invites, such as a proper
progress of road construction.
The case of J. Leroy Eng
land VS.. Rev. John w. Pretty
man, was before the Court last
week. The plaintiff had con-
tracted to sell the defendant a
farm at Zion, and the latter
paid $50 to bind the bargain.
When he could not get posses
sion of the property he sued to
recover the $50 and won a ver-
dict. Mr.. England took an ap-
peal. The Court rendered a
verdict in favor of Mr.. Pretty
man.
The case of Louis M. Jones
VS.. Mrs. Virginia A. Laws, ex-
ecutrix of DR.. G. G. Laws, for
commission under a contract to-
sell a farm, was placed on trial
before jury, which gave a YER
dict for $500 in favor of Jones.

Lydia Cnmmins, and son, Will
mer Cummins, charged with
