North Dakota mines today are working part time. Hundreds of men are idle three or four days a week, men who could be bringing home a full week’s pay envelope every Saturday night if the people of North Dakota would purchase at least a part of their winter’s supply of coal now. When the cold weather arrives in a few weeks, mining and transportation facil- ities will be taxed to capacity with North Dakota orders, and demands from adjoining states cannot be met. Coal shipped from North Dakota into other states brings additional money into North Dakota, but this money will go to the eastern coal fields to help develop eastern states unless the people of North Dakota cooperate by buying coal now. Every coal user in North Dakota, whether he is a banker, business man or farmer, should grasp the opportunity presented by the present coal situation. We tell of our vast coal resources with pride, we admit the facts and see a bright future for North Dakota coal interests but unless -we are ready to cooperate and help the coal operators extend the market for North Dakota coal, we are not doing our full share to hasten the devel- opment of our own state. Remember—every ton of North Dakota coal purchased now means another ton shipped into adjoining states. Every ton shipped into Minnesota or South Dakota means.a bigger and better North Dakota. : Development of North Dakota! TO THE COAL DEALER— Your customers and prospective customers have been informed of the present coal situation in North Dakota. State officials have warned them of the necessity of buying at least a part of their winter’s coal’sup- ply now. They have experienced coal shortages in the past and fully ap- preciate the fact that all cannot be promptly served if buying is delayed until the first touch of winter is felt. Many of them are users of North Da- kota coal. Others could be interested in becoming users of North Dakota coal. Reach them with a personal appeal to-buy their coal now. A half hour’s effort on your part will result in disposing of three or four cars of coal this week. The operators are prepared to give you the service every dealer appreciates. They will furnish you with literature, giving your customers complete information as to the best methods of storing .and burning lignite. It’s good business judgment for you to make the effort. If the 1,500 retail dealers in North Dakota would do it, thousands of dollars from other states would be sent to North Dakota to pay miners’ wages, taxes and a return in the investment made by coal operators who are citizens of North ap rates are doing their part to make North Dakota a bigger and bet- r si i : } _ Try it today! a TO THE COAL USER— In another month or six weeks you will have to have coal in your base- ment. The state railroad commission has given warning that unless there is an immediate buying of coal in North Dakota, transportation facilities will not be equal to the demand for moving the crop and moving coal when cold weather arrives. The threatened anthracite strike has result- ed in fields generally shipping coal to the Northwest directing a part of their output to anthracite sections. This means that North Dakota lig- nite will be in demand in a larger part of Minnesota and South Dakota. _ To meet this demand and bring this money into North Dakota, the coal operatots must have your cooperation by you buying coal now. ._. The day has passed when a North Dakota coal user has to experiment with lignite. The entire western haif of the state, and many communities ‘in eastern North Dakota, use lignite exclusively. for all purposes. Lig- nite users effect a saving of from 20 to 40 per cent in fuel bills and have learned that it can be burned in stoves and furnaces without special grates or other special equipment... In view of this, knowing that it is a satisfac- tory and economical fuel, the North Dakota coal operators feel justified in seeking the cooperation asked. | ‘ Buy at Least a Part of Your Winter’s Supply of North Dakota Coal Now--That’s the Test of Real Interest in the DVLA WW B04 eB wa eB BV DY AV AVA BW AWB A AVA DAWA W/AW/ DV AW/ANAVWAVAWAW/A/AAV/AW AWAY ' _ By writing any North Dakota operator, retail deglers can secure a liberal supply of booklets on lignite for their customers.
