WHY DOES
A BABY cRYf

Because it is either hun
cry or in pain. Properly
nourished it will usually grow
up right and be comfortable
that's the principal thing
for a baby. If its food lacks
strength and nourishment
add SCOTS Emulsion at feed
ing time. A few drops will
show surprising results. If a
baby is plump it is reason
ably safe. SCOTS Emulsion
makes babies plump.

CAMPBELL WITH PRESIDENT.
The Kansas congressmaA Says His
State FavOrs Regulation of Rates
TELLS of OIL Situation.

I
Washington, Oct. 13.-Railroad rate
legislation and the oil situation, with
special reference to the middle west
field, was discussed Thursday by the
president and Representative Campbell
Of Kansas. Mr.. Campbell talked brief
ly of railroad rates and Of the con-
test between the state Of Kansas and
the oil combination. He assured the
president that the people Of Kansas
stood squarely at his back on the ques-
ton of railroad rate legislation and
there was no doubt he would have the
unqualified support of the Kansas con-
'gressional delegation.
The president expressed interest IN
the oil situation. 1.-THE middle west
has the greatest oil field in the world"
said Mr.. Campbell 'The prospects
now are brighter for the industry
than ever before. Independent re-
fineries>are springing up over the field.
Already two are in operation and sew
eral others will be at work within go
days. The oil combination never has
had such a shock from the people
as It has received during the past
eight months. Heretofore 1t simply
has overrun all competition or ignored
1t entirely. Now 1t is obliged to
reckon with it. The Kansas oil pro-
ducers are doing very well. An in
dependent pipeline, has been financed
by the Cudahy interests. 1t will ex-
tend from the Kansas and Indian ter
ritory fields to St. Louis, where big
refinery will be erected. The pipeline
enterprise will involve an expenditure
of about $6,OOO,OOO and all the necessa-
ry money has been provided. The
price of oil has gone up recently about
ten cents a barrel and the producers
In our western fields are optimistic of
The future" ~.
