Coal Washing Plant
And Railroad Spur
Under Construction

A coal washing plant by The
Central West Coal coal company
and a railroad spur to provide an
outlet, by the Western Maryland
Railway company, are under con-
struction near Davis, W. Va.
A story about the enterprise was
published recently in Saward's
journal, weekly coal trade news
paper, published in New York. The
coal washing plant is located in
Tucker county, near the Grant
county line, and has been under
construction for several weeks.
The railway extension is scheduled
for completion in the spring of
1860. Company officials which have
offices in Thomas, w. Va, could
not be reached for comment.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1959-09-24

The story appearing in the Sa-
wards journal, had the following
to say:
THE Central West Coal company
has completed plans for the open
ing of the Blackwater coal field
in Northern West Virginia near
the Allegheny Front, in and around
Stoney river This field represents
one of the largest blocks of virgin
coal of commercial quality left in
the country. To develop this field
the Western Maryland Railway
company is completing approx
mately 10 miles of track to the site.
Central West is now opening
this field by the strip mining meth
cd but has a 1000 ton per day deep
mine under development A ESQ
ton per hour washing plant is eX-
pected to be completed by October
/, while the last four miles OF
trackage will be completed early
in 1860. The strip coal now being
loaded averages Z to 8 feet in
thickness and is of medium VIOLA
tile. The coal shows excellent BTU
content with relatively low sulphur
and high grindability.
"The producers expect this field
to be one of the major sources of
supply for utility requirements. The
initial development is based upon
1000 tons per day production to be
increased as sales contractual ar
rangements are completed. The de-
velopment of this field is based
on the knowledge that major users
of coal need a vast reserve OF
HOMOGENEOUS coal with a minimum
Of 2O-year life so as to properly
plan their purchases and utiliza-
ton Of burning equipment"

Best Time Of Year
For Fishermen Now
Approaches At Lake

The best time of the year for
fishermen is now approaching at
Deep Creek Lake, according to the
opinion of Cecil c. Edwards, fish
culturist assistant.
Since Labor Day, the majority
of the pleasure boats and water
skiers have disappeared for the
year, leaving the lake pretty much
to fishermen. Water temperatures
are decreasing too.
A few of the nicer catches during
the past two weeks included:
A 22-inch, 612 pound largemouth
bass, caught near Green Glade on
an "Abu" spinner by John Moss,
Pittsburgh; a 16-inch, IL pound
chain pickerel at Red Run by
Charles Phillips; 17-inch, 212
pound northern pike near Beck
mans by Linn Phillips, Pittsburgh,
both on "Abu" spinners while
trolling. Phillips reports the best
season ever on the lake with a
large one caught every week this
summer.
Ray Strickler, summer resident
near McHenry, caught a 2512 inch
northern pike, thirteen pickerel
and two nice bass in the past two
weeks while trolling in Marsh Run
cove area. Two smallmouth bass
we're caught near Harvey's PENN
sula by Ray Purbaugh, Meyers
dale. one 10 inches and the other
Is inches. Both were caught with
minnoWs.
Approximately 1890 brown trout
we're placed in Deep Creek on Sat
urday, September II. They were
five to six inches in length and
were obtained from the Federal
hatchery at LeetoWn, w. Va.
Mr.. Edwards urged fishermen to
keep a sharp lookout for tagged
fish and to turn in any tags re-
covered to the Bait House or a
representative of the Game and
Inland Fish commission.

P. at the request of the Springs
Mutual Telephone Company of
Pennsylvania which now provides
phone service. The exchange name
will be changed from Grantsville
to TWinoak 5. This IS necessary
in order to make the exchange an
eventual part Of the nationwide
dialing system.
The c. and P. expects to rebuild
completely at least 80 percent of
the entire exchange area and all
present subscribers will be visited
to have new phones installed. A
new building being constructed
by William A. Shirer of Oakland
at a cost of $4,000 is part of the
overall cost of S255,30 to provide
the Grantsville area with dial serv-
ice.

creating a cartoon feature for

Free lance cartooning as an

One of the most attractive
new additions to the Ameri-
can home scene is the accent
rug: Small, colorful as a
work of art. and sometimes
as interesting as a painting.
Although it is descended
from the old fashioned throw
rug of colonial times, invari-
ably its modern design
makes it strictly a Goth CEN
tury decorating touch.
In its present form, it first
put in an appearance shortly
after the war when a few
creators Of custom carpet
ing, began to offer the dec
orator the opportunity to
have designs woven to order.
Imports did the rest. Some
rugs from France, and others
from North Africa, were de-
signed by such famous paint
ers as Leger and Picasso.
and woven either by the ira
ditional needlepoint studios
in Southern France or by
the plainsmen of North At
RIGA. These rugs. of museum
quality. were bought not only
by museums but by some of
their officials. and also began
to put in an appearance on
the floors of a few home
owners.
Rugs From Scandinavia
Impetus was given the whole
trend by the rugs coming in
from Scandinavia, an area of
the world where the accent
rug has long been a part Of

you treat them? What colors
would be suitable for walls,

Answer = Refinishing the
pieces to match the maple
would be a major project so
/ would suggest doing some
thing quite different with
them. Cover the tops and
sides with green felt which
can simply be glued on and
paint the drawer fronts to
match. You might also hang
straight green felt draperies
at either side of the window.
With this scheme beige walls
and a strawlike fiber rug
which is washable would be
both pretty and practical.
