We Have Received a Limited Supply of Eastern Kentucky Block Coal and are in a position to accept a few more orders. While the soft coal strike has been virtually broken, we believe that the public should be warned that coal will be ver scarce for some months to come. Stocks all over the country are very low and every car that is loaded is snapped up by the railroads, steel plants and other large interests. We do not want to spread "wolf" stories, but we honestly believe that the man who stores enough coal to last him at least until January is showing foresight. Richmond Coal Co.
