Record Of Stolen Stock Has
Been Kept.


Guthrie, o T., Jan. s.-Dr. Beenblos-
som. secretary of the Oklahoma Live
stock Sanitary Commission, today made
his report to the governor on the live
stock slaughtered in Oklahoma during
December
He reports that 63s4 beeves and 1881
hogs slaughtered for food during the
month which were inspected before
being butchered. There are lO9 inspectors
hired to do this work and under the
supervision of Mr.. Beenblossom, nearly
all animals butchered are inspected be-
fore hand
DR.. Beenblossom receives reports from
the different inspectors and these show
that in the last four to six weeks, there
have been 30 head of stolen cattle re-
covered and evidence furnished which
convicted nine thieves.
When the present secretary took UP the
work, not hog had been inspected and
but $50 cattle had been inspected for
slaughter. In the last year the beef in
Oklahoma put on the market has in
creased TO a good grade.
The report of the number of cattle and
hogs slaughtered in Oklahoma during
December by counties is as follows:

OIL GRADE IMPROVED.
Mr.. korns Says Better Oil Is Being
Shipped in Territory.

Guthrie. o. tt, Jan. 9.-"Not half as
much of my district is being cursed with
bad oil as wasa year ago" said Deputy
Territorial Oil Inspector E. F. Korns Of
Newkirk to the correspondent for the
Eagle today. There are a great many
kicks and rears being made about the low
grade oil being shipped into the terri
tory. but L say that it is no ones fault
but the peoples themselves and the mer-
chants. In new country is this espe-
cially true. There are many of the peo-
PIE that prefer to buy low grade of oil
as the P. ". for 8 cents less on the gal-
lon than some of Water-Pierces better
grade oil. as Eupion.
In addition to this fact is this one,
which / absolutely know to be true. Many
of the merchants ship ia poor oil and
then sell it for first. class oil. IN this
way they make an additional profit of .
cents on every gallon"
Il have six towns in my district which
do not get any other than the best. A
year ago they were getting all kinds.
Those six towns are Newkirk. Ponca
City. Blackwell. Enid, Okeene and JEFF
ferson. All but jefferson have not had
any low grace OH lof SIN n-olthS- ue
agent 1T Jefferson has told me that the
last barrel of low grade oil that he would
have shipped in was shipped in December
80. It lies a,great many times with the
agent as TO whether a town shall have
poor OIL.
According TO Mr.. Korn, the new coun-
try which has been having such time
with its oil will only find relief in the
lapse of time. as he says a new country
always has the same difficulty.
The oil question in Oklahoma has be-
come very important Of late and COM
plants from several towns were filed
with Governor Ferguson.

rec and Perry are stin receiving the low
and high grade oils. according 10 Mr..
