Order Your Hard Coal Now.

Harry Hartley has succeeded in contracting with his old firm who supplied him coal when he was with Harrington Bros. Co., .and the Farmers Grain Company now have the famous Pitson hard coal. This is the coal that has been handled by this old stand for a number of years. It was introduced in Rensselaer by the firm of Coen & Brady and later handled by Jesse L. Brady. It is one of the very highest hard coals, on the market. The company that handles this coal has a large storage plant at Hammond and orders given by the Fanners Grain Co. can be filled on very short notice. Mr. Hartley is delighted that he will continue to get this coal and can therefore still give to His many customers the same high grade of hard coal he has been supplying them. Phone your order to The Farmers Grain Co. and Mr. Hartley will see that you are taken care of very satisfactorily. Do not neglect to place your orders now. The phone is No. 7.

RETURNS HOME FROM LONDON

HARVESTER COMPANY EXPERT WHO SPENT FIVE MONTHS IN ENGLAND HERE. A. J. Gaston, who for a number of years has worked out of the Kankakee, 111., office of the International Harvester Company, is here,, this week assisting Kellner & Callahan in adjusting some farm tractors and in erecting some new machinery. Mr. Gaston left the United States, sailing from New York on March 13, and arriving in Liverpool on March 23. He should have gotten away earlier in the year but had some considerable delay in getting the proper papers and the company had considerable trouble in getting proper insurance. A policy of $5,000 was at last secured, for which his company had to pay a very heavy premium. The passenger vessel on which Mr. Gaston made his trip over was convoyed and while they were in constant dread no mishap was experinced. With him were five others of the harvester company’s men. It is understood that this company is selling the British government a large number of small tractors. The farms over there are all the way from one to ten acres but every inch is made to produce to its graetest capacity? On account of the war only those factories that produce munitions of war are running. There is an abundance of work and everybody is prosperous. Of course the very best manhood of the country has been sent to war and one is very liable to form an incorrect opinion of the country judging it from the standard of the men now in England. We have heard quite a little discussion about machinery being cheaper in England than in the Unitec States. This is not true at this time. In England they use a small binder which cuts but five feet and it sells for $225. Kelner & Callahan sell the large eight-foot binder here for $175. This, Mr. Gaston says, is true of all machinery.

In going out and into the country they were not allowed to use an automobile, as gasoline is 90c a gallon there and its use is prohibited except for special business purposes. Kerosine is 24c a gallon. It, would seem that these prices for fuel would be too high for tractors, but the war has almost depleted the country of horses and also the feed is too high for them. Mr. Gaston’s hotel bill was over $4 per day and his rations were very limited. The menus of all hotels are regulated by law and no one can get more than the amount designated, which seems pretty limited. A daily allowance of 5 ounces of meat and one ounce of bread was the limit and it was absolutely impossible to get more. Early in the year they were allowed to have potatoes but once a week and the price of potatoes was about $24 per bushel. Before he left potatoes were more plen- z tiful and their use was not so severely restricted. The price went as low as 9c per pound. Mr. Gaston was in Ireland and found that not so many of the inhabitants of this island had gone to war. He says the Irish people are not anxious to help in the war. He fedls that if they will agree among themselves that England will grant them home rule. One cannot get much information in reference to the war from the London papers. The American papers give much fuller accounts of all happenings. He is quite sure, however, that conditions of the allies are not worse than we have been informed that they are. People over there who would talk expressed the opinion that there will be at least two more years of the war. They have every faith in the final crushing of Germany. Mr. Gaston was in London the date of the German air raid, July 7th. He was in the main part of this city near the postoffice and got a good sight qf the German air planes and while they were some 3,000 feet in the air, yet he could distinguish the German from the English planes. As they approached directly over the place Mr. Gaston ran to a viaduct and a bomb was dropped within a block of this, killing 49 and injuring 150 people. There were 34 German planes and they were driven off by 18 British machines. Mr. Gaston made the return trip with eight other International men late in July. While he did not see their, convoy he was informed that it had shelled a submarine when they were only a day out. The large passenger ship on which he returned was accompanied by another of the same kind and also by a large freight vessel. He is of the opinion that there is not much danger of submarines injuring the fast passenger boats. The return trip was made in eight days and outside of a little nervousness was enjoyed very much by Mr. Gaston. He said that the good old U. S. looked mighty fine to him and that he was indeed glad to get back.

Ask Anyone Who Has Used It. There are families who always aim to keep a bottle of Chamberlain’s Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy in the house for use in case it is needed, and find that it is not o*nly a good investment but saves them no end of suffering. As to its reliability, ask anyone who has used it. C Wild Hay to Pat Up On Shares. A large acreage of good wild hay on the Kent tract of land in Newton county, owned by John J. Lawler.

Mrs. Everett Halstead, who recently suffered a nervous breakdown, left Wednesday for Lake Minnetonka, Minn., to recuperate. Mrs. Halstead describes the place as very beautiful, with the most pleasing surroundings. A rest for a few weeks in such a cool, refreshing place will no doubt greatly benefit her health.

Mell Griffin returned from his work at East Chicago. Summer Complaint. During the hot weather of the summer months some member of almost every family is likely to be troubled with an unnatural looseness of the bowels and it is of the greatest importance that this be treated promptly, which can only be done when the medicine is kept at hand. Mrs. F. F. Scott, Scottsville, N. Y., states, “I first used Chamberlain’s Colic and Diarrhoea Remedy as much as five years ago. At that time I had a severe attack of summer complaint and was suffering intense pain. One dose relieved me. Other members of my family have since used it with like results.” C Hopkins* City Transfer Line. Transfer business formerly operated by Billy Frye. Calls will receive immediate attention.
