MINE INSPECTOR OOYLE'S
REPORT OF COAL PRODUCTION

Oklahoma City, Oct. 10.-The pro-
duction of coal in Oklahoma from July
/, 1910, to June 80, 1911, was 2,569,S69
tons. worth on board the cars $6,424,-
672 the total daily production of gas
was 400 100000 cubic feet; total pro-
duction of oil, 47,450,000 barrels; of
lead and zinc, 8,638 tons; of asphalt,
5,713 tons, and Of gypsum, 111,O13
tons. according to the figures given in
the annual report of Chief Mine In
spector Ed Boyle, submitted Monday
to Governor Lee Cruce. Aside from
coal, the values of the mineral prod
ucts are not given.
To mine the coal, the services of
4,667 miners, 1880 inside or day men
and 1874 outside men, a total of S,191
men, were required. In blasting the
coal the miners used 124,227 kegs of
black powder, 1,575 cases of dynamite,
$4,000 pounds of carbonite, 1924
pounds of masurite and 1850 pounds
of monobell The total cost of all ex-
plosives was $227,O65.S4 More than
nineteen tons of coal were produced
to every keg of powder used.
During the period there were twen-
ty-nine fatal accidents and 1902 non
fatal accidents. OF this number,
twelve fatal and forty non-fatal acci-
dents occurred since Chief Inspector
Boyle assumed Office January 8, 1911.
One man was killed for every SS,616
tons of coal produced, slight decrease
over the preceding year.
For the year, each miner produced
551 tons of coal, on an average. At
an average price of so cents per ton,
this would mean an earning capacity
of s440.80 per miner per year. De-
Quoting the cost of explosives and in
cidentals, a net balance of $3746S is
left as the average earning capacity.

GUTHRIE BANKS WILL PAY
GUARANTY ASSESSMENTS

Guthrie, Okla, Oct 1O.-With the
understanding that Goyerner Cruee
will enforce an honest administration
of the bank deposit guaranty fund. it
was agreed last night by the bankers
of Guthrie representing the Oklahoma
State, Logan County, and Guthrie Saw
ings banks that they will Immediately
pay the guarantee fund assessments
that they owe. This decision followed
a conference with their attorneys dur
ing the afternoon.
The total payment of the three
banks amounts to something like $15,-
O0O or | per cent of the average daily
deposits last March. The banks have
protested the payment on the grounds
that a detailed statement of the fund
has been refused them and that a spe-
cial assessment for the fund could be
made only to recuperate the fund when
banks failed. The special 1 per cent
assessment was made last spring.
The Bank of Indian Territory got
an injunction against interference by
the state after an attempt was made
by the banking board, with the assist
ance of Adjutant General Frank Can
ton, to close that concern for failure
to pay the guaranty assessment. Later
however, the Bank of Indian Terri
tory compromised with the state, be-
ing allowed some credits on the pay
ment. The Guthrie banks, it develops,
have stood alone in protesting the
guaranty fund payment and against it's
uses to bolster up weak banks.

Three Tons TO Acre.
Cutting three tons Of good hay to
the acre down where live in October
does not look so bad for our country
after a season of severe drouth," re
marked F. J. Scott of Vinita, Okla
This proves what a wonderful coun-
try we have. Our first hay crop was
burned up by drouth Now in some
parts of the country that would mean
no good hay for the season. But with
us ii is different Rains came about
the middle of July, and our present
hay crop grew since then The late
corn was also good, so that We will be
in a position TO feed some cattle and
fatten all the hogs we have in good
shape A good deal of the hay is be-
ing shipped out as the barns are all
filled, There is an abundance of for
age feed besides the hay, which viii
keep all the stock we have in fine
condition all winter"
