such weather will bring a decided
change in crop conditions. The oat
crop Is somewhat better than was ex-

wheat this year. No doubt quite a
large acreage will be planted next year

have pure flour with no fear Of pella-

For four thousand miles and more
up and down the Pacific Coast line
California oil is transported and burn
ed. From Nome to Valparaiso and
from as far east as the Rockies, west
to ultimate Siberia, perennially clad
in snow and ice, as we'll as from the
southern runs of the Southern Paci-
fic and Sante Fe Railroad Companies
TO the palmy isles of the Orient, more
California oil is carried for consump-
ton. To the financially interested in
the oil business is to have an added
prestige given you by business men
the world over, and is just cause for
pride in ones common sense
In the matter Of intelligence used
by those interested in the oil busi-
ness, it was recently said by a writer
in the Petroleum World Gondon)
that the greatest aggregation of
brains ever got together was behind
the oil industry. The constructive
genius of the officials of the great
Standard Oil Company was held up
and lauded, and the business methods
of great British enterprise suffered
severely by comparison.
The richness of the industry in
California is rarely appreciated by the
outsider who carelessly reads an
article like the present one. There
are several reasons for this, among
among them being the magnitude Of
the industry, the millions upon mil
lions Of dollars invested and the gen.
eral inability to grasp what has not
been seen with the eyes. He has not
viewed the oil fields; he has not seen
the remarkable forest Of derricks at
steady old Kern River nor driven
down the country road in Wonderful
Coalinga;" knows little or nothing of
marvellous Midway, with it's gushers,
and has probably evinced little in
terest in the other fields of the state,
although people are so clamorous for
news of the oil world today that the
most phenomenal boom in oil in the
history Of California is in progress
now.
"A sight of the million dollar re-
fineries, of the miles and miles of pipe
lines which discharge oil drawn from
the fields at tidewater, and a know
ledge of the engineering feats per-
formed for the transportation; a few
views OF great storage tanks and
pumps would probably revise a few
notions Of the uninformed on the oil
situation in California.

We call your attention to a fact Of
signal importance to yourself.
There are two positions in life for
you.
You must follow your own dictation
and be independent, or you must fol-
low the path laid before you by some
member of the old school and follow
the old rut; and mayhap still drive
delivery wagon.
Knowing as we do, that you are to
be independent Is our reason for ad-
dressing you. Listen and we will tell
you how to gain that independence.
First, make your money work for
you.
Second. save from the money that
you earn from the money that works
for you, and make that work too.
Third, save from the savings from
money Of that money that works for
you and make that work also.
Everyone knows that very little can
be done from the interest that one
receives from the savings banks.
Therefore a better means of invest
ment. Something that is safe yet
earning large dividends.
And it is Of this that we are about
to talk.
Surely you wouldn't care for a bet
ter investment than California Oil.
Investors in the East derive the
paltry sum of three and one-half
cents on their hard-earned dollar for
it's use for one year, while the stock
holders in the same bank paying 1-2
per cent to the depositors receive no
less than lao per cent on their dollar
invested in the stock Of the bank, dur
ing the same year. The figures are
taken from the actual report Of the
directors Of one Of the wealthiest
banks in New York city, and any one
who wishes to know the truth OF it
can easily enough determine it on
the commercial sheets when the div
idends are declared. And the divi-
dends so declared are largely derived
from money invested in California;
more often than not in the oil in
dustry of the so-called Golden
State" Being interested almost solely
In oil, from which vast fortunes are
realized yearly, we would like to
make statement of the reasons why
we believe that oil affords today
greater chances for gigantic, legiti-
mate returns on investments than any
other industry.
In the first place, oil is the great
fuel of the Pacific Coast. Two and
one-half barrels of oil are the equal
OF one ton of coal in thermal units
In other words, the same amount of
heat can be obtained from l-2 bar
rels of oil as can be obtained from
one ton of coal. But the difference in
price Is very great. Coal, producing
the same amount Of heat per ton as
Z IL barrels of oil costs anywhere
from SO to So per ton wholesale. Two
and one-half barrels of oil. figured
at the market delivery price of 81 per
barrel costs $2.50-a saving of from
The watchman and southron. [volume] (Sumter, S.C.) 1881-1930, 1910-05-28

$3.50 to $3.50 on every ton of coal
displaced by Oil. Under the circum-
stances it would be impossible that
any other fuel could be obtained
which could displace oil. and, such
being the case, we have a guaranteed
consumption from every railroad on
the coast as long as the oil fields hold
out. From government reports VIC
may not expect exhaustion until some
future generation. Here is the firm
est kind of foundation upon which an
industry could be laid; an absolutely
assured consumption.
The wheels Of industry must turn,
and at the low, possible COST with
the cheapest utilization of labor. This
point, economy Is the utilization of
labor, leads us to the next consider
@t.cn, namely: money saved CONNER
cial companies in wages, which would
be necessary with the use of any
other fuel.
Experiments have demonstrated the
fact that it costs four time as much
to load a car with coal as it does to
fill tank car with oil. Probably
rs tons would be very high average
car load of coal; fifty tons would be
nearer the general average. 1t re-
quires two tons of coal to do the same
work as one ton Of oil. At this rate
it has been figured out that it would
tax six car loads of coal to do the
work Of one car load of oil! So much
for space.
The advantages of the uses of oil
have been so greatly appreciated that
within the last very few years, in
Los Angeles county alone, over 5000
factories have adopted it. AS coal
consumers they could not possibly
have existed.
In Northern California the use of
oil is becoming more and more gen.
eral Flats, apartment houses, homes,
business blocks. hotels, factories, mills
and power houses use oil for fuel. It's
ClcdllllllcSS ilS eCOHOIUy III the WaCCer
of space, it's actual dollar-saving ca
pacity, combine to make it the ideal
fuel of fuels.
A general demand is being felt in
all of the fields for enough oil to
supply the foreign as well as the home
markets. Russia is large consumer
of oils. Japan is reported to be about
to remove the duty imposed over a
year ago on our oil and by that means
to revive a very fair-siZed foreign
market. In China, our oil, in a re-
fined state, is very largely used, in
deed. An official of the Standard Oil
Company recently informed the writ
er that the high-grade light oils Of
Sumatra were cutting into our Mon
golian trade very considerably on ac-
count Of their market for it; but the
American oil consumed by China is an
enormous quantity.
Our own provinces consume great
deal Of the product, and with Oiling
stations for the navy, we may expect
an unprecedented activity among
producers to supply our distant oil
ing stations, as they can barely keep
up with the demand now.

An Americas man, "Elam John

the Georgia Southern railway, going
to his death with many others, thus
hurled into eternity without warning,
in one of the worst disasters of the

Valdosta, as more were killed aboard
that train
The news of the death of the young
man was wired his relatives here it
8 o'clock yesterday morning.
Mr.. Johnson was about "a years
of age, unmarried, and for several
years had been in the railway ser
vice as baggage master, fagman and
in other capacities He was the eld-
est son of Mr.. Steve r. Johnson, Of
Americus, and only a short time since
visited the family here
The remains were brought TO Amer

and the funeral services will be held
at the family residence at 10 o'clock
