FOR THE YEAR: Conservative Householder Order Early and Avoid Chilly Winter - | RESTRICTION: Ss REMOVED, How much coal do you burn in a} year? If you are the ordinary type of householder, buying coal by the | ton or wagonload as your supply be- comes exhausted, often ordering so long that you begin count- ing the chunks before the coal wagon puts in its welcome appearance, if you are the average householder, it is altogether probable that you will have to do some figuring and then perhaps resort to your last year’s coal bills; before you can make even an esti-/ mate. Jt is a good thing to know. The United States Ruel Commission will expect yqu to know when you come to order your next winter's fuel sup- y. The provident head of a family isn’t} going to wait until next fall to order} his coal, either. For one thing, there is always the chance that there'll be no coal to order next fall, although this is far less prodable in uNorth Da- kota than in other states. In the sec- ond place, Dr. Harry A, Garfield, the Federal Fuel Administrator, intends to make it profitable as well as provi- dent for the head of the homes to lay Will! | putting off | -; hand, in his coal early this spring. In the | case of anthracité, Dr. Garfield has de- creed than an average reduction of j thirty cents the ton from the normal, that consumers lay in their winter | supplies during these months—the josie ‘the better. It is anticipated that similar induce- ments will be offered in North Dakota | for the stocking up with lignite, which | wilt be the almost universal fuel in | the Flickerfail state during the com- ‘ing fuel year. Restrictions which |bave been in force against hoarding ill be removed, and the consumer ;may store up coal up to the limit of !his normal consumption. To ascertain | this limit, the Fuel Administration ‘s that the consumer fill out a form- | al application, stating the quantity de- j sired for immediate delivery; the quantity consumed during the year ending ‘March 31, 1918, the quantity coal required for the year ending arch 31, 1919, the quantity now on the kind of building, kind of heating plant and number of rooms to be heated. * applications so filed will be filled during the course of the summer at jthe special bargain prices. The mines ‘agree to this proposed reduction ‘be- cause it keeps coal moving and their mines operating during a season 0! the year when normally the demand lfor coal is very light. The average |mine’s overhead expense is no incon- and that goes on | whether the mine works or not. TALKS TO ASSESSOR. Governor Lynn J.
