Coming Under the New Cur
rency Law, Says John
Shelton Williams
BANKS SENDING
IN STATEMENTS
Long Era of Prosperity Is
Now Coming, Is the
Prediction

| Washington, June lS.-Something OF
the spirit in which John SHELTON Will
liams will administer the affairs of the
national banks as comptroller OF the
currency and as member OF the led
eral reserve board may be gained from
striking interview with that official
which appeared here yesterday. Accord
ing to Comptroller Williams, one OF the
best results of the new banking system
is that it will put an end to plutoc-
racy."
1--WE have permitted to grow up in the
United States" he said, what has got
ten to be known as the invisible gov
spects than the visible government. This
power has been restricted by no limits,
and it has been allowed to reach into
the vaults of our banks, the safes of our
merchants and the cupboards OF our
housewives. Under the new banking
laws this vicious power, we hope and
believe, will be ended We are having
a look at the banks books every day,
and the information these books impart
will enable us to put the new banking
law into effect next month without a
hitch"
How do the banks like this scrutiny y
Comptroller Williams was asked. How
many of them have protested against
the clerical work involved?"
I'VE sent out requests for these daily
statements to 81 banks" he replied,
and 575 banks responded promptly and
cheerfully. Two banks withheld the in
formation. One institution in New Eng
land wrote that at meeting of its
board OF directors it had been decided
by vote to refuse to give the informa-
ton"
And that bank received telegram
from this office directing attention to the
paragraphs of the banking laws which
provide penalty of 500 for each days
delay in answering such call. There
was no further delay. Since that tele-
gram we have had daily and complete
reports from the bank. The other in
stitution, a bank in the middle West,
wrote in that it was impossible to com
ply with the request from this Office.
We duplicated the telegram sent to New
England and the response was equally
prompt?"

the new law"

barrels day of initial production is
still frequent. Conditions are still ia
yorable in the state for the development
of new prolific pools that would bring
the total yield of the state beyond the
maximum. In 1912, for example, the
development of the Blue Creek pool, in
Kanawha county, increased the total
production for that year to l2,l2S,962
barrels. During the year the pool de-
clined, and so great a result in 1913 was
not to be expected; nevertheless the
total reached II ,567 POO barrels, a loss of
only 4.63 per cent. This good record was
due to the extension of the Blue Greek
pool, and chiefly to the increase in Roane
county, where the Berea Grit and Scat
fold Run pools, in the Spencer district,
developed a product of over 1000 barrels
a day early in the year and increased as
the weather became better for drilling.
Harrison, Peasants Woods, Monongalia,
Richie, Gilmer, Morgan, and Brook
counties added many gllshers yielding
from 200 to 1000 barrels a day.
While no pool equivalent to the Blue
Creek was developed during the year,
drilling was more active than ever be-
fore owing to the high prices for OIL
The total value increased 44.67 per cent.
or from $l9,927,72l in 1912 to SIS, $685.

KENTUCKY HAS NEW SENATOR.
Joshua N. Camden Named to Succeed
the Late W.f0. Bradley.

Washington, June lS.-,Joshua N
Camden, named by Governor McCreary
of Kentucky as senator to succeed the
late William @. Bradley, a Republican
is son of ex-senator Camden of West
Virginia. He has been interested in
mineral lands in eastern Kentucky and
is very wealthy.
He inherited great wealth from the
estate of his father, which was acquired
from investments in oil and coal lands

Mr. Camden is an active Democrat, as
was his father before him. The new
senator will take the oath of Office to-
day or tomorrow. He will serve until
the fall election, which will choose a
senator for the remainder of the term
OF the late Senator Bradley, which would
have expired next March.
1t is the belief of Kentucky Demo
Gratis here that former Gov, Beckham
will be chosen for the full term and
possibly for the short term at the gen
eral election.

Briefs For Breeders.

Now is the time to dispose of your
surplus stock.
Docile hens invariably make the best
breeders; handle your birds as much
as possible to keep them gentle.
Ducks require plenty of feed If
they are allowed to get thin many of
their eggs will be infertile.
Give your wet mash food at the most
convenient time, but do not keep the
birds waiting for feed
Feathers from the birds killed for
the table have commercial value.
The successful business men lets moth
ing go to waste.
If the Arkansas farmer and other
poultry raisers will keep but one breed
and have an egg of unifom color and
size to sell, he will receive from one
to three cents per dozen more for the
eggs than from the odd lots and vari-
ous-colored ones.
1t is a good plan to scatter some
gram In the scratch at night after
the hens have gone to roost, as they
are up early and want and need feed.
Your poultry houses should always
be, If possible, placed on ground slop-
ing slightly, so that in wet weather
the water drains away from them.
If the hens of flock have practical
ly all been broody, in many cases the
eggs laid after their temperature has
been reduced will be infertile. Bet
ter not set their eggs for several days
after they go back to laying.

GOOD News TO
CAL0MEL USERS

Dodson's Liver Tone is a perfect
vegetable remedy to take instead of
ealomel and is guaranteed to be harm
less. If you have trouble with con-
stipation or biliousness, be careful
how you take calomel, because Gallo
mel is a form of mercury, and if
mercury remains in the system very
long, it will salivate and seriously in
jure the strongest person that ever
lived.
If you need something to start the
liver to working take Dodson's Liver
Tone. 1t is a harmless vegetable IL
quid which will liven up the liver as
we'll as calomel does and without any
bad after effects. No restriction of
habit or diet is necessary. Dodson's
Liver Tone is as safe for children
as it is for grown people and every
body likes its taste.
Buy bottle for fifty cents from
Hesterly Drug Store and if you do
not find that it absolutely takes the
place of calomel, the drug store will
give you your money back as soon as
you ask for it. No argument-this
is the guarantee that talks.
