EARLY FALL - SUGGESTIONS)... 129 Main Street ASSESSORS IN BESSION TO RECEIVE TAX LISTS ‘The assessors have begun thelr sittings elr office at the court house to re- ceive lists of property for taxatiom, but ®0 far comp.. .iively few taxpayers have put in their lists in the five days that have passed. Alout 800 lists have bsem reccived thus far. A total of 6,000 is to be received before the month is over. The assessors waa: 142 taxpayers to #et in their lists early and save a rush in the last week of the last few days of October. They are particularly desir+ ous people who hawe bought property this year should get their lists in early #o that the records of transfers may be followed up. The earlier this can be done the easier it will be for the assessors and the tax- payers will know that they have thetr lists off their minds. The board of as- sessors includes A. R. Manning, Albie L Hale and John B. Oat. NOTI All Members, Mercier Assem- Tuesday, October 10th.

Ceal Production in the United Stater and the World. Recent developments in the eoal in- dustry in the United States lend interest to some figures of coal production and consumption presented by the Trade Record of the National City Bank of New York. They'show that the United States ‘which has more than one-half of the underground coal of the world sup- plied 42 1-2 per cent of the world's coal output from the beginning of the war to the end of 1920 as against an annual average of about 38 per cent in the years preceding the war. In 1921, however, with the big fall off In our own output, we 'supplied but about 40 per cent of the world’s coal production, though in' the immediately preceding year, 1920, our share of world production was 45 per cent. The United States, Great Germany, France. Czecho-Fpovakia. Japan, Belgium, India, China, Aus- tralia and South Africa, are, in the or- der named, the chief coal producers and the ecountries herp named normally supply approximately nine-tenths of the world’s coal output. Our supremacy in this line is illustrated by the faet that our own output in 1920 was mors than that of the three next largest pro- ducers of coal in the world, Great Brit- ain, Germany and France, their 1 output having aggregated but 510,000, 000 tons, while our own output in tha year was 583,000,000, Even i 1921, in which year our output fell to the low- est point since 1909, our total output was about equal to that of the three chief rivals . above named, though this was due in part to the unusually low output of Great Britain in 1921. The big increass in our coal production during the war, an advance from 458, 000000 tons in 1914 to 606,000,000 in 1218, was accompanied by great M- creases in our coal exports They totaled, including bunker coal supplied to vemssls in the foreign trade, in the fiscal year 1914, all of which preceded the war, 27, 500,000 tons valued at $86,000.000, and in the fiscal year 1921, 49.000,000 tons, vai- ued at $435,000.000. While there was of courss a big fall off in our coal exports in the fiscal year 1922, as was the case in the exports of all classes of merchandise, the value of the exports of eoal in the year ending June 30, 15922 is about 50 per cent greater than that of the year preced- ing the war. Our total exports of coal (including bunker) since the beginning of the war have exceeded a billion dollars in value. ‘World .coal production In 1921, adds the bank’'s statement, aggregated about 1,120,000,000 metric tons against 1331 000,000 in 1918, and 1.342.000.¢ i 1913 Qur own production in 1921 was 44142 000 long tons against 583.333.000 in 1921 605,546,000 in 1918, and 508,893,000 in 1913. Our share of world production in 1913 was 38.6 per cent. in 1918 46.4 per cent, in 1920 45.4 per cent, and in 1921} approximately 40 per cent. The 1921 out- put by principal countries is: United States ¢41 ,000, United Kingdom 163. 000,000, Germany 136,000,000 tons of coal and 122000000 tons of lignite, France 28,250,000 tons of coal and abou 1,000,000 tons of, lignite. exclusive of abou 10,000,000 tons mined in the Saar Basin in Germany in which France was given under the Treaty of Versailles the excln- sive right of ccal production during a term of years. The low production In the United Kingdom in 1921 (163,000,000 tons against 230,000,000 in the preceding year) was due to the suspension of eoal mining during three months of 1991 The existing underground coal suppiies of the world, or “reseryes” as they sre called by the geologists, were estimated by a World Geological Congress which met In Canada in 1913, at 7.397.283,000, 000 metric tons, of which that of the Uni. ted States was put at 8,838 657,000.- /000, or abput 52 per cent of the total Britain, ago ig about 14,000,000,000 tons, It is es- timated by the Geological Survey that approximately 99 per cent of the original 52 per cent of that of the entire world. Coal consumption in the United States averages, for the entire year, over ome million tons per day. — Lawyer—Judge, I want you ¢én fin¢ this man who was knocked down by my client's ear.
