Ships Were Loaded.

one OF the greatest slumps in i'm
migration ever recorded at the port 81
New York was written into the rec
ords at ellis Island during the CLOSING
days OF last year The records show
that nearly 100000 fewer Immigrants
landed there last year than for the
corresponding period In 1910. and
Commissioner Williams declares that
there was reduction OF 80 per cent.
or more from 1910 figures for the
year. The incoming tide of humanity
Is lower now than at any time since
1908.
With the tide at its ebb, every shin
leaving for Europe is crowded as never
before. One vessel sailing the other
day left 500 steerage passengers on
the wharf because Of inability to find
accommodations aboard for them. Dur.
ing the first ten days of December.

sailed for Europe, fast year the nun.
ber was 25,245. Outbound vessels car.
ried nearly so per cent. more third.
class passengers last year than be-
fore.
The decrease may mean one of
several things said Mr.. Williams IN
may mean that industrial conditions
here are much disturbed. 1t may mean
that third-ciass passengers are more
and are going to and fro
more than usual, or that the long
Iooked-for ebb in the tide has come.

Good Roads sneclaI

On March 25, 1912, a unique train
departed from Brownsville, Texas. for
four months trip over the Frisco
System. This is the Good Roads Spe-
cial, operated by the Frisco Railway
company and the Office of public roads
OF the U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture. 1t is train of four specially
equipped cars and carries lecturers
and an unusual exhibit. This exhibit
consists of carefully prepared models
OF all types of road construction from
sand-clay and gravel to bituminous
macadam and of reinforced concrete
bridges and culyerts, completed and
under construction. 1t also contains
miniature models of road machinery
and a rock quarry, which are operated
by electricity. Each model in the car
is properly labeled SO that the object
lesson in itself affords a considerable
road education. The equipment of
this train even surpasses that of the
four similar good roads trains recently
operated over other railway systems
in the United States.
This train will in spite of delay from
floods cover about $4,000 miles in the
states Of Texas, Louisiana, Missouri.
Kansas, Arkansas, Oklahoma. Missis-
ippi, and Alabama. A complete sched-
ule of stops has been prepared which
provides opportunity for more than
three hundred lectures upon good
roads topics. These lectures will be
given upon those road subjects which
are most intimately connected with
the locality visited.
Mr.. H. @. Wells, superintendent of
road construction, assisted by Mr.. II.
&. Craig, both of the U. S. office of
public roads, will accompany the train
to give good roads lectures. Their
addresses will be illustrated by over
LOO colored lantern slides. These men
IRE expert highway engineers and are
and willing to answer all
questions which time permits at each
top.
This train is scheduled to arrive at
linita, Okla, on July 3. 1912. Should
he audience prove greater than can
'e accommodated in the lecture car,
'rovision will be made to deliver the
ecture at some suitable hall. Meetings
Eill be held at vinita, Okla, July 8, at
100 p m.

Areas for Drilling for Petroleum and
Natural Gas.
The United States Geological Sur
Vey has published a second edition of
its report on the geology of the Camp.
ton oil field, Wolfe County, Ky. and
the oil and natural gas field in Knox
County, KY The report is the result
OF field investigation by M. J. Mum a
geoiosist of the survey. The principal
OBJECT OF the work in the Campton oil
neia was to ascertain, If possible, the
value of such work in locating favor
able places for testing before drilling
MT Mum made the statement that
good geologic work in advance of
drilling could easily reduce the cost
or thoroughly testing this region bv
at least 90 per cent" Since the publi-
cation of the first edition of the report
prospecting in Wolfe county has re-.
suited in the finding of an extension
OF the oil-bearing area northward from
the old developments at Campton
which may result in the opening of a
antlcline, on whose southern limb the
Campton pool occurs. The attitude of
the oil sand" ("Corniferous" lime.
stone) in these two areas appears to
be practically the same. Prospecting
IN Wolfe county has also resulted in
the discovery of new oil pool south
or saltwater post office, 6 or 8 miles
from the Campton field and within
the belt previously pointed out in Mr..
Munn's report as being worthy of care
ful geologic study. At this time it is
not possible to say whether or not
his new pool will prove to be of much
value, as all the wells completed have
been small producers. However the
additional data furnished by this pros
'ecting have given strong corrobora-
i've evidence sto the value of geo
