The ntieortaiety in the coal market
alyd the Advance in price' just wlteii
Qneexpecte it to he ()heap 1ia's been
causing ulieeeineee amongst house.,
lighters, though the feet that the
spring if; here and the prospect of
euminer ahead makes it easier to
shelve the 3:eseoasibility,
An interview which'Jibe News -Roe-
, bid had the other day with ,the lee -
.al dealers drought to light the fol-
lowing reasons for the advance en
orders for 'spring delivery,
The coal operatorsaroin the hab-
it of sending circulars to local deal-
•ers announcing their spring price,
Which is usually the 1oWeet in the
. year, with an advance of ted cents
per ton• per '{nontli. This was done

p
was put back to the winter price
and dealer; wore notified that the
Suture price Would be what was cur-
rent at the (l i' - of delivery.
"!This is most unsatisfactory to
ue as well as to our customers" say,
the local dealers, "but what are we
to do ?. 11 'e cannot fix •thetprice, we
must pay whatever the coal barons
sa,17
What is the reason of the ecarcity
of coal and a've the conditions likely
0
r
to i t ro the I ere -
ve . was o doub aha i
n v
n
ed question asked, by ,The 11 ws-Rea
• ord.
"Tho principal reason given is the
difficulty '01 obtaining transporta-
tion," was the reply, "As a natter
of fact it is said that there was more
coal mined in March of this year
than during any March for many
years but owing- to sliortage of
eight cars and men to handle the
•product it is impossible to get it
'distributed.` The reason for the
shortage of cars is due to .the in-
abilit tok
get
non to keep diem in"
yP
repair. The tr. Tl a repair shops. of tkio
railway companies are full of roll-
ing stock wlticli for the time beiog
cannot roll for lack of repairs and
eller° aro not enough mon, to be '-gdie
to put thopi into shape again,"
It looks as if the reason back of
all was the war, after all. Many
-menRave gone to the front and no
doubt many more whoformerly were
employedin the repair shops of the
railways are now working in the
munition factories. •
'Should. presentconditions prevail
for anylength er time arrangements
must be- made for burning less coal
next winter.
Coal is not by any moans the only
staple which is on the up grade,
Jlowever. •Flour is another staple
which is mounting in price until it
begins• to look as if bread, the corn-
rneeest article of diet, would soon.
be considered a'luxury.,
`� Bread advanced in Clinton on Sat-
. ` 'nrday last to ten cents, that is ten
cents for a pound and a half loaf.
Several of the surrounding towns'
had advanced the price a week or
1.'wo"previously.
"We cannot buy flour today and
- make bread •at any profit for ten
cents," remarked one otc the Clinton
dealers. "While bread has not quite
doubled in price flour has threbled in
'the past thirty months."
"Do you see any solution ?" an-
other dealer was asked, "Well," he
remarked,. "tlie probability is that
before the year is out you will not
be allowed to buy as muck • bread
as • you wish, we'll sell.. it . on the
basis of one• loaf to a family, or
soneething `like that."
Why -is The .News -Record, like an
old raven, croaking over these things,
just to harrow, up people's - feel-
ings and make them unhappy ? Not
a;bit of it. "This is no time for un-
happiness, for discouragement or for
whining. It is a time for action and
everybody can do something useful.
Canadians, while industrious and
thrifty inmany ways, have not learn-
, 0ed the, art of saving every scrap and
making every cent tell. So plentiful
;rel; have been our harvests , as a rule
that wo have grown somewhat pro-
digal of food. But, just now the
woman who . in her kitchen sees that
every ounce of food stuff is utilized
and made to do its utmost in the
,nurishing of her family is performing
an important patriotic a'ot.
In times of peace aiid plenty the
'householder who wastes his substance
fie his own worst enemy,. ret{Irding
his own' race to the goal of a .corn-
petance,. but in war time andwhen
the world is' facing a serious food
shortage, such an one becomes a pub-
lic menace.
In'Germauy a food controller has
regulated the diet of the people for
many months ; • Great Britain has re-
cently appointed a food controller
and it is gnite, possible that some-
thing of t11e kindwill have (o be
•lone in Canada. But the Ca'itadian
people, if they will, can put off such
a contingency indefinitely,
Let's go systematically . about con-
serving our -resources, •
, We may. learn lessons of thrift
:luring the next couple or three years
which will lay the foundation for
treat national wealth in .the future,
lbesldes helbing materially to stave
off world -hunger.

The following interesting letter
was received by Mrs. J, Torrance

ranee, who wont overseas with a
'draft of young ollieers ie, August
last 1001 who. lilts been in France for
several months and was in the great
fight at rimy Ridge :
"Dear Mother, -It is exactly two,
Weeks today since. I wrote you last
because I have been In the line ever
Mime and have had no opportunity
to write, Received your Potters of
March 18th, 21st', and 22nd this
morning, also my birthday 'parcel, I
spent part of my, birthday in arfilthy,

Hint tvh'Iolt 1w had to oven -

ate. In one dugout a went t w v t into
the first morning we went .over, was
a• table laid all ready for breakfast
but -they had not touched it as they
had to "beat it.". Pinned to the
came table 'with a Hun dagger was
the following note ie English ,g
'Sorry we eannet stay to welcome
you, Congratulations .on the way
you liavo taken Vim* Ridge.' He
must h '
m aver a ooh o
beeng loser. They
seemed to have a e lots to oat in their.
hack area, but were rather, scarce in
the front line as-elleY could • get
et
it up on account ,of our bombard-
ment, We `certainly gave' Fritz • a
great jolt all along the line and the
prisoners seemed to roll in for as
soon as they were •cornered .'they -
would put thole hands upand' seem-
ed pleased to be taken prisoner and
said that if wo kept on taking
prisoners like this the war" would
soon be over. Got this card I am
inelosing on a, Hun prisoner. One of
thein gave his ago as fourteen and
there were a lot of mere kids while
others looked
to be about sixty t and
some were crippled with
rheumatism.
They have not the type of men we
have at all. Our mail was sent 'up'
to us once While weewere In the lino
and it was lost in -a busll that
night. You know we were three
miles farther into the Hun lines
when we carte out than when we
went in, and the intervening ground
was hammered to pieces by our
artillery and it was pretty hard
finding your way especially at-
niglit, so I don't know whether any
of my mail. was among that or
not. As my time is up will have to
close and will write again the first,
opportunity, Yours, -Edgar."
