Forewarned is Forearmed
FTWE householder who gets his winter's supply of anthracite coal in his
- cellar within the next few weeks need have no fear of a repetition of the
severe winter of 1917-18.
To hold off ordering till -fall means a rush at that time which the mines and railroads will not be
able to handle. Much as your dealer might wish to accommodate you, he will have no choice in the
matter but to refuse your order or to fill it "when he can.'
rh-?i
5?
In the fall cars will be needed for the movement of crops, the greatest on record. These, being
perishable, cannot be set aside.
The tremendous business boom which is anticipated following the signing of the peace treaty
will mean a greatly increased demand for coal, which will come with a rush. This will very likely
cause a shortage of anthracite and consequent higher prices.
If coal is not kept moving into the cellars of the houses now, there will be a curtailment of
production which cannot be made up in the fall. This is likely to create a serious condition for the
householder difficult then to remedy.
The price of coal cannot be reduced. On the contrary, the high costs of mining, transportation
and local delivery to your home make an increase in price absolutely necessary. The costs are
steadily advancing, and how far they will go cannot be now foreseen.
Thrift alone does not counsel putting in your winter's supply of coal now. Knowl
edge of the facts makes it prudent.
These are the facts-set. forth now so that the coal consumers of Philadelphia and
vicinity may act immediately and save themselves suffering and annoyance
when cold weather comes.
You can get anthracite coal now
is the time to order it
Phone your dealer and make arrangements for delivering your next winter's supply.
