This letting is in accordance with the Governor’s determination to push his road building program with ail possible speed. His successful fight for equitable prices in road construcâ€" tion makes this possible. He has suc- ceeded in reducing the avenge cost In the same order is a provision for 13.01 miles of hard road on route number 5. This is Lake street and the entire stretch will be built in this county. That the first work to be done on the Cannon Ball trail will start this year is assured by a recent order of Governor Small asking for bids on approximately 145 miles of state-aid hard roads.

WHERE’S WINTER COAL COMING FROM? who has accepted the invitation of the American Legion to come to this country for its third annual conven- tion at Kansas City October 81 to November 2. was commander-in-chief of the Belgian tomes during a great part of the world war and at dilferent times was in direct command of Am- erican forces serving with the Be!- gians. 'IheGenuineOldBeanily We have in transit and alsn in stock all kinds and sizes of Coal. Coal will not be cheaper, in the fall or winter, than it is now. So get your next winter’s supply in your bins NOW and be prepared for anything the winter might bring. Added to this is the danger of a serious cur shortage. Grain and other things are starting to move very fast with the gradual resumption of business, leaving less ears for coal. Our advice is “Order Your Coal While the Getting's Good." Conditions are gradually working themselves around to the same as prevailed in the early part of last winter. The mines have not been worked to full capacity during the summer months which makes a shortage at the mines. “mummm MWESMM” is a slang phrase but it applies to COAL right now.
