OIL A GOLDEN PRODUCT
SINCE TRUST DISSOLVED,

Pittsburg.-In a fourth successive
advance of seven cents a day last
week the South Penn Oil Company,
which virtually fixes Standard prices,
boosted Pennsylvania crude oil to
$2.33 a barrel and other grades in
proportion-the highest prices in re-
cent years.
When the Standard Oil company
of New Jersey was dissolved by Or
der of the Federal Supreme Court
last year a number of smaller COM
panies were organized in this terri
tory, and competition for crude oil
for the new refneries has become
pronounced.
For 1S months preceding the dis
solution of the Standard, which took
place December Is, 1911, Pennsyl-
vania crude, on which the price of
all oil is based by the purchasing
agencies, had been quoted at $1.3O
a barrel. Eleven days afterward the
price was advanced cents, and
within a month producers were re-
ceiving $3.50 barrel for oil. On
October 20 it became apparent that
the purchasing agencies of the yari-
GUS Standard Oil subsidiaries had
determined to force prices to a
much higher level, and on Decem-
Der 1 4 the dream of the oil producer
was realized in the announcement
that so oil had arrived. But it did
not stop there.
Oil men are predicting $3.50 oil
by midsummer and SO oil before the
end of the year., While it is realized
by those who closely follow runs and
shipments, as we'll as production,
that there is a scarcity of oil, the
movement last week has been so un-
usual that many persons feel that
something more than the legitimate
commercial demand underlies it.
The effect of the advance has been
most pronounced in Western Penn
sylvania, West Virginia and Ohio,
where many losses are being taken
up.

10000 to 10000 of the men who wore
the blue or the gray.
The enCampment will cover 276
acres and with the soldiers, Off

THE COST OF SMOKE.

About per cent. of the coal that
fills the fireboX G the locomotive ac-
tually drives it cross the country.
The rest is was Not more than
10 per cent. of uel value of their
coal is consum ii the furnaces of
manufacturing plants.
The rain of cinders from the stack
of the locomotive, the pillar of black
smoke from the factory chimney, ac-
count conspicuously for part of the
waste. But these are minor losses.
The chief difficulty lies in the failure
to use the combustible gases that
arise from the burning coal. They
are either allowed to escape unignit-
ed or are discharged without hav-
ing done any service beneath the
boilers, to expend their heat on the
air.
The Geological Survey has esti-
mated tnat the "smoke nuisance"
costs the country, through waste of
fuel, injury to merchandise, and un-
necessary labor caused by clouds of
SCOT, over 5000, 100000 year.
There is, moreover, an undeniable
menace to the public health through
the polluted air of great manufac-
turing towns.
Much of the tremendous economic
waste is at present unavoidable, be-
cause we have not learned how to
utilize the energy of coal directly.
Steam, and often electricity as we'll,
must be generated before the power
can be applied. But there are i'm
provements in furnace construction
which reduce the losses of imper-
feet combustion, and progressive
manufacturers are saving money for
themselves and beneftting their
communities by adopting them

WRITER'S heroine
HAS Been REbUR|ED

Frederick, Nd, May 30.-The body
of Barbara Frietchie, heroine OF Whit
tiers poem, and that of her husband,
John C.. Frietchie, which were re-
Gently disinterred from the old Re-
formed Congregation cemetery here,
we're formally deposited in the new
mausoleum in Mt. Olivet cemetery to-
day. The reburial was made an occa-
sion for interesting ceremonies which
were conducted by the G. A. X. and
other patriotic organizations. A fea-
ture of the program was the reclta-
ton of Whittier's poem by Miss Me-
dora Matz, a grandniece of Barbara
Frietchie.
Barbara Frietchie was born in Ian
caster, Pa, December 8, 1866. Her
maiden name was Barbara Iiauer. AS
a young IN she removed to Fred
erick with her parents and in 1906,
was married to John G. Frietchie, a
glove manufacturer and merchant.
When on September 6, 1862, Freder-
ick was invaded by the Confederate
army, there was but one Star Span
gled Banner" to be seen flying in the
breeze. This was displayed in the
little .dormer window of a quaint old
house in West Patrick street, the
home of the Frietchies. The entire
body of the Confederate army march
ed directly past the house on Friday,
September 70, and on the, next morn
ing the eyes of the old lady were
gladdened by the sight of the FEEDER
ais. who, taking the same route as
the Confederates, followed closely
on their footsteps. Mrs. Frietchie
did not long survive the episode. which
inspired Whittier to write his famous
poem. She died less than three
months later, on December 10, 1862,
at the age Of SO years.

NATIONAL COLLEGE
MEET IN The WEST

. Boston. Mass, May 30.-Hundreds
of trained college athletes gathered
in the Harvard stadium today for the
preliminary events in the thirty-sev-
enth ANNUAL track and field meet of
the intercollegiate Association of Am
ateur Athletes Of America. The sur
vivors' OF today's contests will com
pete for the championships tomor-
row. 'l''''''
Seldom in the history Of the inter
collegiate championships has. there
been such a"wealth of runners, leap
ers and weight hurlers Of high grade
as are included in the entries this
year. 1t Gems almost certain that
some of the marks in the various
events will be displaced by better fig
ures, and that Pennsylvania, which
Won the championship last year, will
have to fight hard to retain the title.
Harvard, " Cornell, Yale, Princeton,
Dartmouth and a host of the smaller
Eastern colleges are represented by
their star performers. Michigan has
sent a team to the meet and the far
west is represented for the first time
by a team from the University of Cali
fornia. Several athletes of champion.
ship caliber are included among the
Californians and the prediction is
made that they will figure prominent
ly in the fight for the titles.

In the occasion of the annual con-

! had much to do with moulding dairy
thought and practice throughout these
northwestern states.
Prof. r. l.. HaecKer, who for years
has been the head Of Minnesota's
Dairy school, has stamped his ideas
of cooperative creameries strongly in
that state and through the students
OF that school who have gone into this
and %neighboring safes, also through
his experimental reports and press

The Dairy Department of Minnesota
headed at the present time by J.. G.
Winkjer, who IS also president OF the
Northwest Officials and Instructors

reaching in its influences in the adj
vancement Of dairying. rtN
Wisconsin and Iowa, states also in
cluded in the Association, have dairy
officials and instructors who have rem
dered excellent services for these
states. ... .....
We do not often .hink of Utah and
Idaho as being particularly interested
in dairying, but as a matter Of fact
both states have numerous cOmpar-
atively small valleys where dairying
is carried on much more extensively
and in a higher degree OF efficiency
than many of the recognized dairy
states. Peg. So

generally and abundant low cost milk
producing feeds are grown under the
heavy rainfall rather than by irriga-
states.
Dairying in the plains" states is
most backward and yet even in these
there is a rapid development.
! These states from Wisconsin to
| Washington and those Immediately
south of the northern tier are in COM
mon in dairy interests. Wisconsin and
Minnesota, especially. the former, have
supplied thousands of heads Of dairy
stock to the dairymen of the west.
! They also ship millions Of pounds
of butter and cheese each year to the
west coast cities for consumption
there or on board ship or for Alaska
trade.
Large quantities of condensed milk
are shipped from the condenseries of
the western states. Gr
Skim milk il being reduced to a
powder, unsalted butter made at
creameries, possibly thousands of
miles apart and IN the factories of
numerous cities are united, forming
cream from which ice cream of a

THE TARIFF AND THE LOBBY.

Washington Star: The presidents
latest tariff deliverance recalls a lam
Gus remark Of the late Col. Ike Hill
of Ohio, long a democratic employee
of the house. Col. Hill was al old
style politician. who never scratched
a ticket, always believed his party
right, and on the eve of an election
was always confident Of success. His
summing up was in this sentence:
We've got EN- boys-if they don't
buy u.s."
Mr.. Wilson expects a tariff bill to
suit him if money does not change
the situation. His information is that
money Is being used in quantities to
create sentiment throughout the coun.
try and Washington Is full Of lobby
lists for the purpose OF influencing
congress to amend the Underwood bill
in important particulars. He de.
llOullCcS luc IN CllIcIty ullu dSno thS
public to take note OF it.
Prominent senators and represent
a~tives, however, have felt no such
pressure. 1t seems not to have been
in evidence while the tariff bill was
passing through the house, and sew
eral senators DESTROYS of seeing the
bill amended by the senate are with.
out information as to the alleged
s%kullduggery.
Manufacturers, sugar planters and
wool growers are active, and claim
the right to be. They see disaster In
the terms of the Underwood bill ap-
plying to their interests, and are ask
ing consideration of their views by
the senate. They put their Judgment
against the presidents as in the nj
ture OF practical knowledge against
theory. They insist that men who
have spent their time in mills and fac
tories, in sugar cane and beet fields,
and on sheep ranges. are better ad-
vised of what should be done than an
accomplished scholar who has been
coming theories in a library.
But whether Mr.. Wilson is duly or
unduly alarmed. what he says should
fix attention. If malign influences
are at work they should he exposed
and defeated. The country wants and
expects a tariff bill framed and pass
ed, upon the merits of the question:;
and it, has been expressly stated both
by Mr.. Wilson in his speeches and by
bis party in its platform that tariff
|rcvision need not and should not take
the form Of destruction to any legiti-
mate American industry.
In a way, and in some circles, mo-
ney talks. But it has never talked
in congressional circles so loudly as
represented in curbstone gossip.
Speaker Clark in a tribute to the
house the other night expressed the
belief that not a single vote in that
body could be bought; and as much
may be safely said Of the senate.
Whatever the final shape of the I'm
derwOod bill, it will not be a triumph
of Doodle.

Commissioner Bolley of the North Da.
