| The Effect
Of War On Coal
It's a problem to determine what effect this war
will have on the coal situation.
One thing is sure and that is labor conditions in
the coal regions will become very serious owing to
the large number of foreign miners who are return
ing home.
This will mean incompetent men will be em
i ployed and as a result coal will leave the mines in
bad condition.
On September Ist the price of all Anthra
cite Coal will advance in price 20c per ton.
Aside from the difference in price, coal bought
now is much better quality because in summer the
demand for coal is light and more time is taken to
prepare it properly.
Better order your coal at once and save the ad
vance in price, get better coal, and insure yourself
against a further raise in price later in the winter.
