SCATTER CREEK COMPANY GETS
BUSY.

Howard Slocum of California, we'll
known in the oil world as an expert
field man, has arrived to take charge
of the field operations of the Scatter
lCreek Oil company of Tacoma. Mr..
ISlocum has been for years associated
with the Mexican Petroleum COM
pany, one of the largest oil associa-
Itions in America. He will have en-
tire charge of the Scatter Creek work.
The Scatter Creek company
through w. d. Outman, announces
that work will start at once on the
lerection of two drilling derricks for
the company in the immediate vicin-
lity of the Crescent No. l we'll. The
drills will arrive at the field in time
to be placed when the derricks are
completed. Work will be rushed as
rapidly as possible.
The Scatter Creek Company has
closed another lease on 40 acres of
land on the old Christopher drilling
ground. This is considered one of
the best tracts of land in the field.

SURVEYS ADD MUCH
TO STATES ASSETS
SURVEYOR GEN NERAL FITZ
HENRY HAS MAPPED 375,OOO
ACRES THIS YEAR.

Some $4,000 acres of the North
ern Pacific railroad grant, worth ap-
proximately SIS an acre, land that has
never been on the state tax rolls, will
shortly be subject to taxation, adding
some $1,6OO,OOO of taxable property,
as the result of the surveys made this
summer by parties working under the
supervision of Surveyor General E.
A. Fitz Henry.
with the advent Of the present
national administration. steps were
Immediately taken for the survey Of
this large land grant, totalling o.
100000 acres altogether" General
Fitz Henry said in discussing his de-
partment's work this week, ''and
when I took over the affairs of the
flee in July, 1913, l Immediately re-
ceived instructions from Washington
to proceed with the survey as rapidly
as possible.
Arrangements were then made for
he necessary examinations to obtain
men fitted for the work, which were
held early in the fall of 1913, but be-
fore that we made up parties tenn
porarily for the work of that sum-
mer and proceeded with the surveys
with as many parties as were then
available. This last summer, how
ever, we were able to put 18 parties
in the field. including two double
parties of ID men, and at the close
Of the season we had surveyed about
375, 900 acres.
To Survey 100000 Acres Next Year.
Because we will be still better
prepared and our facilities will be
greater, I anticipate that we will be
lable to survey 100000 acres next
year. with two or three more parties
in the field than we had this last sum-
mer."
If this is done, it will mean that
more than 100000 worth of real
estate heretofore untaxed will have
been added to the states tax rolls in
two years, and in addition to this
there will be at least 100000 acres
of mineral lands of untold value SUBJ
ject to patent, General Fitz Henry
points out. Most of the land grant,
which runs 40 miles back on each
ide of the Northern Pacifics main
line, is timber land, though there are
also large deposits of marble and 9TH
er various building stone. When the
entire survey has been completed
SO, 100000 worth of property will
have been added p the state taxable
assets.
To facilitate the office work and
make the surveyed lands available
for taxation as soon as possible, the
surveyor general has called the chiefs
of all the field parties into the local
Office where they are now engaged in
making up the field notes and COM
pleting the maps, SO that the prepar-
alton of this necessary detail would
not be delayed as heretofore. This
makes the surveyor generals Office a
mighty busy place, there being total
of 20 employees now working there.

GENERAL DETAILS
OF REVENUE LAW
PROVISIONS OF MEASURE WHICH
BECAME EFFECTIVE
TUESDAY,.
BY FRANK NJ. KENNEY,
ASHER of the OLYMPIA National Banl

asher of the Olympia National Bank
"An act to increase the internal
revenue and for other purposes" is
what it is called by the trainers, but
"war tax" seems to be the favorite
title given to it by the people.
1t is estimated it will bring in an
income of one hundred million dol
ars annually, and by the terms of
the bill, it ends December 81, 1915.
Although the tax on beer will
bring in large portion of this reve-
nue., approximately thirty-three mil
ion dollars, the general public is not
Interested in this item, but more par
ticularly in the taxes on deeds, notes,
and the like.
Taxes on Deeds and Notes.
If the consideration is more than
$1O0, but not exceeding $500 a SO
cent stamp must be affixed to all
deeds and other instruments convey
ing realty or interest therein, and for
each additional $500 or fractional
part thereof, further tax of SO cents
is imposed. In computing the value,
liens or encumbrances on the prop
erty shall first be deducted.
| The stamping of these deeds will,
for the next year at least, enable the
tax officials to know very closely
what the actual consideration is for
property sold, as the average man is
afraid of Uncle Sans penalties and
will, therefore, affix the right amount
of stamps.
| The state tax commission endeav-
ored to secure legislation making the
disclosing of true values compulsory,
so that it could determine the basis
of taxation in force in the various
counties, and failing to secure this
! Legislation, the commission has taken
the testimony of witnesses, in order
to determine the ratio of assessed
valuation to the true value. Uncle
Sam is now providing an easier Way
to arrive at the same thing.
There is no tax on mortgages, trust
deeds or any other instrument OF
writing given to secure debt, but II
any notes are given in connection
they are taxable.
County auditors require that in
struments presented for record be
properly stamped, otherwise they
cannot receive them.
Bills of lading covering shipments
sent by freight, or express receipts
covering express shipments, have to
bear a l cent stamp each.
Notes, except bank notes issued for
circulation, of 500 or less require a
2 cent stamp, and for each addit"' al
500 or fraction thereof, cents; and
If anyone should fail to affiX the
stamps, with design to dvoil pay
ment, a penalty Of not exceeding
$500 is provided.
There are other penalties imposed,
depending upon whether the nom
stamping is done Intentionally or by
oversight, and methods are provided

LAMP BURNS CRESCENT OIL.

Oil from the Crescent we'll has been
refined, and gasoline, kerosene, lubri-
eating oil and paraffine taken from
the crude oil from the we'll. Out of
three pints of the crude oil just as it
came from the we'll Mr.. Dubbs pro-
cured 10 ounces of refined oil. A
lamp in the Office of the Crescent Oil
company burning the kerosene from
the we'll with a clear white flame was
one of the features of a window dis
play last Saturday and attracted hun
dreds. The refining was done by w.
S. Dubbs, local chemist and drug
gist, formerly head chemist of the
Pacific Coast Oil company, who rugged
up small refinery plant in his lab
oratory. The results created consid-
cradle excitement in this city. Out
at the we'll the crude oil is being used
by the drillers as a lubricant in fas-
tening the sections of the casing to-
gether, while when the fire gets low
under the boiler, the fireman throws
on bucket of oil and the fire blazes
up again in great shape.
That the oil found in the Crescent
we'll is far superior to any found on
the Pacific coast and equal to the
product of any well in Pennsylvania,
is Mr.. Dubb's opinion.
