Show COAL SHORTAGES SHORTAGE just now brigham Is experiencing a coal shortage it could linnley be called a famine but is no coal to bin built n using it slang expression the local dealers are arc behind car loads each with their orders so that when it a eat car of oc coal comes in it only takes a very little while before the car lias has been emptied and made ready to go back to the mines for more As yet nd suffering ring ering lias has been reported and there is every reason to believe that the situation ill III be relieved reli ered in a week or two but it seems that every body got out ol of coal at the same time while the mines have not been able to fill the orders as fast as is they come in I 1 As soon as the immediate wants of i those needing coal have been supplied giving the dealers a chance to catch up lip a little they will be able to handle the situation nicely however Ilo wever it is a mighty good practice to store y our coal bin in the summer when fuel is plentiful |
