By S. A. Scott

Expert or better management
is to be had, only through three
main principles of the follow
ing.
First, thorough knowledge of
marketing as to place, quality,
quantity and reliability of
whom.
Second, a thorough knowledge
of producing from face of mine,
to rail road cars, as to correct
pillar lines, development in a
safe way, to prevent creeps and
squeezes, resulting in the crush
Ing of the coal, loss of lines,
materials, supplies, transporta-
ton and control of labor through
the bossing staff.
Third the kind and amount of
materials and scpplies to use,
and above all, how to reuse
them over and over again recov-
ering and preserving same.
