NOW IS THE Time TO
START Spring WORK
TO PREVENT DISEASE YOU
SHOULD RENOVATE THE
HOUSE AND CLEAN YARD.

There will be little If any more cold
time to give thought to the annual
spring cleanup in Tulsa
The department of health will de-
mand a strict enforcement Of all tho
health laws of the city and viii re-
quest that with the passing of the
present damp weather the property
owners make a general cleanup Of
the back yards, outside drains and
other places whore strict sanitation
should be observed for the benefit or
the public health.
Tulsa has the reputation Of being
one Of the cleanest cities Of the size
in the country and the fact that less
than half dozen diseases have been
been reported here this year is a good
indication of the general cleanliness
Of he city
Much sickness indicates low grade
OF sanitation. There are a number
of disease producing germs which do
not thrive under the sunshine and
warm weather of spring. Spinal mem
ingitis is a good example. But there
are a large number which do thrive
with the coming Of spring. The sun
shine and warm weather propogato 10
them and unsanitary conditions in he
yards and the outside drains are the
conditions which prove favorable TO
their propagation 1t is therefore i'm
portant that everyone assist the health
department in seeing that the sani-
tary conditions Of Tulsa are the best
that can be had.
The frequent number Of snow flur-
ries and rain, have caused a startling
negligence of sanitary conditions in
the back yards. Careless property
owners and tenants have allowed
great deal Of rubbish to collect 1t IS
natural for the germs to be propo-
gated In this rubbish and with warm
weather they viii be dangerous TO the
health of persons in the neiehbor-
hood
Here are few of the important
things which are recommended to be
carried out in the spring cleanup.
Rake the yard thoroughly and
burn all the rubbish or have It cart
ed away.
Clean the drains thoroughly and
disinfect them. Remember that wa
ter from the drains of your property
may collect at point lower in tho
block.

STANDARD OIL GROUPS
LARGE EARNING CAPACITY
Increased Margin of Profits-Each
Striving to Make Good.

Since the segregation of the Stand
ard Oil co. of New York into its con-
stituent parts, price of crude oil has
advanced to extent of 20 to 25 cents
n barrel while price of refined oil
has risen about 50 a barrel. There
has, accordingly, been a substantial
increase in margin OF profit on the
refining end This Increase III is
believed, will much more than absorb
the additional administrative expenses
caused by necessity of maintaining sep
arate and Independent operating staffs
and clerical forces for the various
subsidiaries.
Under such circumstances, IL would
seem that the total earning capacity
of the Standard OIL group of\prop-
critics would be larger than hereto
fore. In the readjustment process the
earnings Of some companies may be
reduced while others VIII be en-
larged, but it would seem that total
earnings Of all properties would be
larger than under the old regime.
The practice long ago established
by the Standard Oil Co. of New Jer-
sey of having its board of directors
meet daily is being followed by all
former subsidiary companies. Every
day the directors of the subsidiaries
who are mostly practical operating
men. get together to talk over de-
tails of the previous days business
and map out plans for the future.
Each company is trying to make
the best showing that it can. The
segregation placed the active man
agement of most Of the subsidiaries

OIL NEWS AND COMMENT
Ly W. II. Peck,

The freight rate on refined oil in
carload lots from this district to Gulf
points has been reduced from 26 to
20 cents per hundred pounds, maxi
ing a difference of is cents per bar
rel. While the rate on crude is sull
10 cents per hundred pounds, the
rate on fuel oil is the same as on re-
fined, to-wit, 20 cents, and should be
reduced to 10 cents the same as
crude.
The new rate has opened up the
world market for refined oil, the
little refineries in this district being
the ones benefited. For long time
kerosine has been a drug on the mar
ket, selling as low as ] IL cents a
gallon, and never at a figure which
looked like a profitable one. While
this rate is said not to apply to gaso-
line, refiners have a market farther
north for all the gasoline they can
make.
The refiners are paying a bonus
of 2 cents per barrel for crude over
the pipe line prices and perhaps with
a better market will be able to do
even better
