HOT Clean Burning Economical Jesse Knight s SPRING fif A T CANYON Vilj When you have this hot, clean burning coal in your bins you are well protected against the co'd weather. It burns with equal efficiency in furnace, stove or open grate. Every lump is full of heat energy and, per pound, it gives more warmth than any other coal. This makes Jesse Knight's Spring Canyon Coal the most economical coal you can buy. A ton of this coal goes farther -it leaves less ash, and clinkers are practically unknown. It stores well. No crumbling into slack. But every piece is clean, and breaks on the grain. Order a Load of Spring Canyon . Coal Sent to Your House Today BOISE PAYETTE LUMBERCO. AL CHANCE, Sales ilffr.
