' The most frightful and hideous
sldeieton in any family’s closet
:(or cellar) at this time of the year
+-—with Winter knocking at the
door—is an Empty Coal Bin.
Such a skeleton pl‘csages much
discomfort, poorllealth, sulfering
and real misery in the days to
come.‘ Aptragedy may be averted
by filling the vacant space with a
few tons of good coal.
'Our stock of coal was never
better than at present. A few
words fitly‘spokcn into the tele-
phone (652) will start something
that will quickly make the skele-
ton skedaddle. -

Kentucky in a ferment.
The Hardin county fluorspar veins
are the largest in the United States.
The main vein. running northeast and
southwest across a portion of county.
ranges from 6 to 80 feet wide. is be-
ing worked on the 600 foot level. and
diamond drills which have penetrated
1.300 feet have failed to find the
bottom. Rosiclare mine. in operation
more than forty years. holds a. world's
record for tonnage prOduccd. Unlike
coal veins in the neighboring coun-
ties. which lie flat in “bed'” or “blan-
ket" formation. the main fluorspar
vein stands on edge. and is mined
under the same conditions as its sister
hard rock minerals in Colorado and
the Vt'eat. In the eastern part of the
count}. at Spar Mountain. near Cave.
In Rock. there is a. blanket “In of
