NEW PLAN FOR A PARK
SENATOR CLAPP TRIES HIS HAND
Project to at Once Have a Leech
Lake Park and Dispose of Mer-
charitable Timber.

Washington, Jan. 16.-Through the eff
forts of Senator Clapp, seconded by Rep
resentative Morris of Duluth. it may be
possible to secure a large park on. the
Leech Lake reservation, and at the same
time carry out in great measure the plan
contemplated by Judge Morris for dis
posing of the understandable timber on the
available lands cf the Chippewa reserva
tions.
Senator Clapp has been in conference
with Indian Commissioner Jones, going
over the plats Of lands on the Leech Lake
reservation, with view to ascertaining
what lands are best suited for park pur-
poses, and which, on account of their nat
ural beauty and surroundings, would be
peculiarly available for preservation in
the national park. Whatever lands can
be agreed upon will be reserved from the
operations Of the Morris BILL and specifi-
cally designated as reserved lands by
amendment to the bill before it passes
congress. The lands regarded as specially
desirable to be reserved include Bear and
Helen islands in Cass and Leech lakes,
and number of points jueking into these
lakes, which are well known to woodsmen
and pleasure-seekersa as spots well suited
for park purposes.
1t is estimated by Senator Clapp that
probably more than 100000 acres Of high,
ly desirable lands could in this way be
preserved. By reserving these lands from
the operations of the Morris bill and put
ting upon the reserved land sufficient
force of fire patrolmen, the park plan
could be carried out and at the same
time throw upon the market the timber
upon the less desirable tracts, in order
to affect the sale of the merchantable
nine.

SALES OF Pig IRON
Disposition Of Bessemer the Feature
Of the Week.
LARGE AMOUNT FOR STEEL TRUST
Promises to Grow steadily
for Months.
Cleveland. Jan. 1s.-The Iron Trade Re-

Cleveland, Jan. 1.-THE Iron Trade Re-
view says:
Sales of 125, 900 tons Of Ressemer pig iron
for delivery largely in the present quarter
OF the year are the feature OF the week. The
bulk of this iron was taken by the United
States Steel corporation at $15.75 at Valley
furnace, or $3.50, Pittsburg Other steel
makers were also in the market paving in
some instances Sl6 at the furnace, and on
smaller lots as high as $l6.25 has been paid
The United States Steel corporation took all
the iron offered the associated BesseIner fur
naces for the second quarter and other pur-
chases were made from Outside interests, The
situation in respect to this metal is thus very
firm, with every Indication Of higher prices.
The cutting of production, due to the coke
shortage, has compelled importations, and
these are expected to increase in the next
few months. A large amount of German Bes-
semer iron has been sold for this country
and among recent sales in England was one
OF 1000 tons of a west coast Bessemer for
delivery in the United States. A recent round
sale OF German spiegeliesen for export to the
United States indicates that our steel-makers
have not been able to supply their furnaces
as ordinarily run on spiege.
The import movement in pig iron is appar-
ent in the November statistics of the treasury
department., which reported 1888 tons
brought in in that month, against 1887 tons
in November, 1900. The importation OF steel
is also expected to grow steadily in the COM
ing months. Independent sheet wire and
tube mills will be compelled to seek foreign
steel in view of the announced inability OF
steel corporation plants TO furnish steel in
the next six months except to customers hay
ing longtime contracts.

CARDIUM HAS RETURNED
Her Voyage to Europe With Oil Was
Successful Venture.

Beaumont, Texas, Jan. II. - The tank
ship Cardium has returned from sue
cessful voyage to Europe with cargo Of
Beaumont oil and is now awaiting another
cargo of $4,000 barrels -
The Cardiunl was the first oil ship of
large capacity to sail for Europe from the
Beaumont fields. Her departure strength
ened the confidence of the skeptical in the
future of this most rema rkable field.
There are many other ships, some even
larger than the Cardiuna, now being built.
These with the large number of oil cars
promised by the different railroads, will
help to relieve the situation.
The lack of transportation facilities has
greatly retarded the sales of the past
year, but despite this deficiency the ship
ments have been greater than even the
most sanguine dreamed of when the first
great gusher was struck on Jan. 10, Of last
year.
The National Oil Reporter is authority
for the statement that "fuel oil will take
the place of rs per cent of all the coal
now used in the world. This means a
yearly market for 81 100000 worth of fuel
oil in the United States alone.''
Consider the fact that this oil gushes
from the earth without any material cost
to the producer and you will appreciate
what the profits of a large concern like
the Texas Fuel Oil Co. will be. This
company will soon be ready to Ship oil to
European and American ports. Its pipe
line to Port Arthur, to be owned jointly
with several other prominent oil COM
panies, is being rushed to completion. It's
first we'll will be a gusher within a very
short time. Storage tanks, side tracks,
ETC., are now being built. When these
are COMPLETED there will be no need to
sell stock. Then you will wonder why you
didn't foresee the rapid rise in prices.
You certainly might have done so. Other
companies have offered stock at equally
low prices, but how long cid they remain
low after the shipping Of oil began.
To-day with all improvements under
way, you can get stock at the original
price. Is cents per share, par value s1.OO.
Don't wait for us to strike oil; take the
history iof others on this hill as suffi-
cient proof. No we'll on Spindle Top
Heights has ever failed to be a gusller;
neither will ours. Besides this we own
over 5000 acres of valuable oil lands in
other parts of Texas. This company is
destined to be one of the largest produc-
ers of crude petroleum ir the country;
it will pay you to investigate the propo-
sition. Call or write. Prospectus free on
application. Texas Fuel Oil Company.

chemist at the head Of the great Altenheim
Medical Dispensary, 1922 Butterfeld building,
Cincinnati, Ohio, has just made the startling
announcement that he has produced a COM
pound that grows hair on any bald head. The
doctor makes the claim that, after expert
ments taking years to complete, he has at
last reached the goal Of his ambition. TO the
doctor, all heads are alike. There are none
which cannot be cured by this remarkable
remedy. The record Of the cures already
made is truly marvellous. and were 1t not for
the high standing OF the great physician and
the convincing testimony OF thousands of
citizens all over the country, it would seem
too miraculous to be true.
There can be no doubt Of the DOCTORS ear
nestness in making his claims; nor can his
cures be disputed. He does not ask any man,
woman or child to take his or any one else's
word for 1t, but he stands ready and willing
to send free trial packages Of this great hair
restorative to any one who writes him for 1t,
inclosing a 2-cent stamp to prepay postage.
In a single night 1t has started hair to grow
ing on heads bald for years. It has stopped
falling hair In one hour. It never falls. no
matter what the condition, age or sex. Old
men and young men, women and children all
have profited by the free use Of this great
new discovery. Write to-day. II you are
bald, If your hair is falling out, or IL your
hair, eyebrows or eyelashes are thin or short.
and in a short time you will be entirely re-
stored.

A QUESTION OF DIVIDENDS

When a man buys Texas Oil stock-as,
indeed, when he makes any other invest
ment-he wants to know when and how
much he will get back. This is the right
thing. It is business.
We would like to answer it in bust
ness-like manner. We know what we
have; we feel confident what We can do
and upon the faith we have in Texas oil
and our property on Spindle Top and at
other places, together with the arrange
ments already made for handling the oil,
we say that stock in the Omaha-Texas
Oil company bought to-day at rs cents
share is worth intrinsically easily dollar
share. It is worth dollar upon the
most conservative estimate. 1t would not
be stretching the truth, although perhaps
it would hardly be accepted, to say that
this stock now selling at Is cents share
will in the course of year earn in divi
dends as much as you pay for it. In that
case Omaha Texas Oil stock will be worth
S. share, as industrial stock Is now
reckoned.
The moment this stock begins to earn
and receive its dividend, that moment you
will be willing to pay par or more for It.
Now, what, is the sense of waiting until
a piece of property is high-priced before
you buy it? Why not be one of those who
will get the benefit of the rise? We know
Of no easier way to make rs cents on
every Is cents invested than by putting
It into Omaha Texas Oil stock.
Are there any companies now paying
dividends? you ask. Yes. One of the
three companies which is shipping oil has
just declared it's second dividend. No one
knows what the Guffy company is making,
because it is close corporation, which
has never sold Its stock to the public. But
we know that the Omaha-Texas company
will be dividend payer as soon as it can
get its oil product on the market. It's
gusher is an assured thing. Just as sure
as that you are reading this paper. There
has never been failure to get gusher
where we are drilling and there will not
be in this case. Call and talk it over.
We will satisfy you on this point.
