ewspapers

lOR several weeks we have been warning the public against a coal shortage and actual suffering: this winter, and we have urged them to buy coal. We have tried to convince the public including the newspapers that

we have been sincere in this warning:, and that prices asked have been as low as the dealer could afford to make on the basis of present cost.

These warnings have apparently been received as merely an effort to sell coal. The people have been urged to wait for lower prices and. acting upon the advice given in your column?, they have waited until the situation has already become serious. We do not qüestiön your motives in the past some have undoubtedly had the interests of the people at heart and have been sincere in the advice given but we appeal to you now, publicly, to Tell the People the Truth about the Coal Situation

to do your part toward keeping the people of Indiana warm thfa winter by warning the public to buy coal while there is coal to be had. If you can do so. make a real investigation of local condition. Find out how mprh coal there is on hand in the yards. Figure out what th people will need for th winter. Compare that total with the present supply and ee just how far it will gtx. InrefitJrnU conditions in regard to petting additional shipments when the yartia n takj earg p them. See for'yourself what the actual situation ia. 'llie retail coal merchants have proHded coal.up to the capacity of their yards. They did not wait for lower prices they paid what was demanded and thej are celling tbU coal at prices which represent only a mall profit. When this Mock Is soVii aad distributed, they have no assurance that they can huy more coal at lower mine price than they have paid for the present supply. We urge you to make the investigation auggeted. It won't take long and every retail coal merchant is ready and willing to give you any information you desire. Find out what the situation is. If the danger is a serious as we have represented it, tell the public. That's all we ask, but we aak it in the name of the people of Indiana, who deserve to know the whole truth. Tfij appeal i$ given at the eleventh in our $erie of talks to the public, in the hope that th ne paperg mar ute their influence la arouee the public to the dangers of the coming coal shortage and urge them to act before it is too late, Indiana Retail Coal Merchants Association

HOOVER WANTS CHICAGO MAN TO BE -FOOD COP

WASHINGTON. Sept. When cereal foods are hith. as now. ami potatoes are cheap and plentiful, hog feedintr of cull potatoes and any surplus of the poorer grades which miht be available is prolita! le. It is estimated that four and one-lndl bushels of potatoes final one bushel of corn ir. producing weight on hogs. The feeding ( f marketable potatoes is therefore unprofitable unless corn is four anl one-half times as much as potatoes. Hut as above stated, there are the culls md other unmarketable potatoes, which might advantatreously ,.e fed to hogs for several reasons: A waste is utilized and more valuable feed is saved: transportation charges on a poor proluct ate saved; and the potatoes marketed brim; a higher price than they would if the small ones were included. ImmI alue of I'otaloe. Potatoes resemble corn in composition, antl this is especially true -f fwict potatoes. Both corn ami potatoes are poor in protein ami rich in carbohydrates, thus they make fat
