According to him construcFOB THE PAST TEAS Unrle Sam's of eual taken inventory recently revealed eouuuerrial stock of soft on baud September 1, 1924, ton million net tons, a taled decrease of four million from Jane 1st, and fifteen from tbe record of January 1, 1924. Tlie course lias been constantly downward since the early weeks of the year. Stocks on September 1, 1!24, were nine million less than on the same date a year ago, and were more than double those on Ke)-ember 1, 1922, at the close of the miners' five months strike. Computed with August 1, 1921, there was an increase of six million tons. Measured in terms of tons stork decreased 24 er cent during the first eight months of 1921. In days supply the decrease was hut little over 2 per cent. These erc villages are bused on averages which assume that the supply was evenly distributed. Stocks are never equally divided, however, and the use of such average is projs-- only for the pun'ose of eomparison. There are those in every community who habitually carry very small or even no reserve. In addition to the estimated quantity in storage piles oi actual consumers, these quantities are known to have Wen in transit on 1st. On the roiiuuerrial dorks of Lake Suerior and Mirhigau, ton and in storage at the mine or at intermediate tsiinta at least three hundred thousand ton. Retail dealers' stocks of anthracite were 71 per cent larger on SepteniWr 1, 1924, than they were on the Minding date of 1923, and they were hut 7 less than on NoveiuWr 1, 1921, two months later in the season. As a result of the steady movement of anthrueite up the lakes stocks, which stood at 450, MHI tons on June 1st, had increased to by Sep- temWr 1st. Commercial Consumer. The total quantity of soft coal in the hands of eoimnerriul consumer on SeptemWr 1st wa between forty million net tons two and fifty-twprobably about 47,000,000. Thi estimate, which is based on reports from a selected list of about five thousand consumers, does not take into account that in the bins of householders, concerning which no data are available, nor steamship fuel nor the tonnage on the lake docks, which is considered in transit. The iwriod of aerumuletion of reserves that began with the termination of the miners strike of 1922 and that resulted in stocks of 62,000,-00- 0 tons on January 1, 1924, came to an end daring the early months of this year. By June 1st stocks had dropped to 51,000,000 tone, and a further decline during the following three months carried them down to 47,000,-00- 0 tons. In eomparison with other fall dates, the stocks on September 1, 1924, were 16 ier rent less than on SeptemWr 1, 1922, at the end of the strike, 3 less tlian on NoveiuWr 1, 1921, and 20 Wlow OrtoWr 1, 1918, when wartime ertivitiea had led to large accumulations.

The Whole Truth About Tire Bargains er la-lieu- i, is subject to sudden and wide fluctu-uetioii- s. The available information indicates that the quaulity on SeptemWr 1st was about the same as on January 1, 1024. lieMirt from an incomplete list of producers who store showed a total on SeptemWr 1, 1024, of about 300,000 tons against 385,000 on January 1st, and 440,000 ton on SeptemWr 1, 1923. The total quantity of unbilled standing in ear at the mines was about seven hundred and fifty thousand tons. Receipts and Deliveries. Retailers receipts from January 1st to August 31, 1924, exceeded their deliveries during the same period, and their reserve on SeptemWr 1st compared favorably with those earlier. It wa not MMible to uiak a cauva of all dealers, but reixirt from a group of five hundred ami four who have rexrted regularly for the lust six years show a total of 1,300,032 net hi Kepi ember 1st as against on June 1st and 1,076,763 on Juumiry 1, 1024. Comimml with the eorrexiiiding date in 1023 there wa an increase of 71 fier cent, and with Xovemehr 1, 1021, a decrease of 7. In tons terms of days supply retailer had sufficient to last fifty-eigday, against twenty-on- e n on SeptemNoveiuber 1, 1023, and Wr 1, 1021. The larger increase in dny supply is due to the lower rate of deliveries in the summer of 1924, which was aWut-3percent less than the rate used iu the oomputatiun on the earlier dates. It is imixwsible to state the total stocks held by all dealers, but it may perhaiia be assumed that the figure for thi group are representative of the trend of total itoeka. stix'ks ht forty-seve- PRODUCTION THROUGHOUT THE WORLD THIS TEAR 310,-.000,0- 00 - ht fifty-thre- up-p- lv Dodge Brothers s Sedan ht ie--B elec-tri- -- 4w3,-05- World production of eoal in the first half of this year wa approximately 555,000,000 ton or at the rate of 1,310,000,000 a year.
