West Virginia Coal Companies Sa> It is a cardinal principal in economics that, other things being equal, or nearly so. it is good business to patronize home institutions. The Punxsutawney Milling Company's establishment has come to be a good barometer for business in Punx sutawney. When the mill is busy with domestic grist and the farmers deal at the mill the merchants in Punxsutawney are sure to be having u good day also. This was noticeable last Saturday when, reports say, the town, inculdlng the mill, enjoyed an old-fashioned Saturday trade. After a couple of years hauling grain to towns from six to ten miles distant, farmers have come to realize that they get as good, if not better, flour made in Punxsutawney at a cost less the time and expense of hauling. The pro,iu ts of the Punxsutawney Milling Company's plant is second to none in the country. Their "Silver! Star" and "Little Oracle" brands of flour havo the endorsement of all bakers, and housewives find no superior In any market. The same may be ' said of their buckwheat flour, which ! has been attaining a tremendous sale J during the past two weeks. The mill has a eapacity of seventy-five barrels of flower per day, and besides faking cure of the home supply. reoeies and manufactures, during times like the present, from 75 to 100 cars »f Western grain during a year. The company is paying 90 cents per bushel for wheat, 00 cents for buckwheat and 55 cents for oats. Recently the eapital stock of the company was largely increased, improvements Wen- ma le, and tin* mill received a geni 1 »verhaullng, until at present it is one of the best equipped plants of the kind In the country.After a period of dullness extending1 over ab.»ut three years the P.antall mill, about three months ago, began to pick up. and the business has been steadily on the increase, until at present the force Is unable to handle the orders. Yesterday, at noon, the delivery wagon became swamped and an < x:ra team had t > he secured, while the shipments by rail increased correspondingly.
