Denver.-Heavy development of Col
orado oil fields will be witnessed in
the near future, according to the an
nual report of James Duce, state oil
inspector, which he has submitted to
Governor Ammons. He says there is
evidence that the tide Of capital, which
has overlooked that form of invest
ment in this state. is now turning.
Colorado has several oil districts
that 1t would well repay the capitalist
to develop, and we understand that ne
gotiations are pending with this in
view in several of the districts" the
report reads.
Until recently, while money was
freely invested in the prospecting for
oil in other states. Colorado's great
opportunities were being overlooked
However, there appears to be evidence
that the tide is turning toward this
state. and the near future will see
much more active operations carried
out in this line"
The Falcon field in Ell Paso county.
he reports, is being prospected by
Eastern capitalists, and he remarks
that interesting developments can be
looked for" Other fields in which
work is being done are at Aurora, near
Denver; Weld county, Mesa county,
Delta county. La Animas county and
In the San Luis valley. Drilling is be-
ing continued in the Rangeley field.
and the inspector believes that "as
soon as transportation lines are avail
able 1t will doubtless become a
shipper"
Twelve changes in the present oil
inspection law are recommended by
him, among which is one designed TO
prevent the waste of gas from gas
producing wells which are not now be-
ing used for beneficial purposes.
He says that in Mesa county 250, 900
cubic feet of Illuminating gas escapes
in every twenty-four hours from one
well and that In Boulder county from
100000 to 100000 cubic feet of gas es-
cape DUNG every twentyiour ours.
He would make II compulsory for
owners to put caps on such wells, In
order that the gas be retained for fu.
ture use.
During 1913 approximately 5.767. .0O0
gallons Of crude oil were produced In
Colorado. The department inspected
92.1sS,6O0 gallons OF refined oil. The
state will realize a profit from the
office for the first time since II was
created. The amount OF revenue to
the government for the year will be
S5.l9i. which is the profit above the
expenses of collection. The amount
formerly went into the pockets OF the
chief inspector.
The Florence fields are credited
with the greater part OF the production
for 1918. They produced 5.tii. .i5i gal
Ions OF crude oil The Boulder dlstric,
produced 322.9i9 gallons.
Other recommendations Of changes
In the present law are for the preven
tion OF the promotion OF wildcat oil
schemes. for the prevention of oil es
Gaping into coal mines seams and for
the protection OF purchasers OF lubri
eating oils against fraud.

WHAT NEURASTHENIA is

Neurasthenia is a condition of exhaus-
tion of the nervous system. The causes
are varied. Continuous work, mental or
physical, without proper vacation PERIODS
without proper attention to diet and ex-
ercise, also worry over the struggle for
success, are the most common causes.
Excesses of almost any kind may pro-
duce it. Some diseases, like the grip,
will cause neurasthenia. SO also VIII
severe shock, intense anxiety or grief.
The symptoms are -sensitiyeness,
irritability, disposition to worry over
trihes, headache, possibly nausea.
The treatment is one OF nutrition otthe
nerve cells, requiring non-alcoholic
tonic. AS the nerves get their nourish-
ment from the blood the treatment must
be directed toward building up the blood.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills act directly on
the blood and with proper regulation OF
the diet have proved of the greatest bene-
fit in many cases of neurasthenia. A
tendency to anamia, or bloodlessness,
shown by most neurasthenic patients, is
also corrected by these tonic pills. Your
own druggist sells DIR. Williams Pink
Pills.

DIVIDED PARTY
IN HOUSE ROW
Republicans and Progress

Fuss
REPRESENTATIVE
MOORE GETS EXCITED
And Murdoch Denies That
Col. Roosevelt Does
His Thinking

Washington. June 3.-During bitter
debate in the House yesterday afternoon
on the administration antitrust bill lead
ers of the Republican and Progressive
parties clashed on the question Of "amal-
gamation."
'Do YOU think there is any chance of
amalgamation between a set of men who
want to 90 forward and set of men
who step, dodge and sidestep every
thng?" shouted Progressive Leader Muir
dock.
"There has been some talk of ANAL
gamation between, the Republican party
and the so-called Progressiyes," retorted
Republican Leader Mann. But the men
who voted for Colonel Roosevelt last
year are coming back to the Republican
party. There will be amalgamation.
And when the Progressives come back to
the Republican party, as the voters will,
there will be no more of these little lead
ers in the House,
When the debate was at its highest,
Representative Moore of Pennsylvania
said the members were "terrorzed and
bulldozed" in voting for labor amend
ment Monday. Mr.. Murdoch retorted by
calling Representative Moore "reac-
tionary," and the latter, pacing back
and forth in the front of the chamber,
declared he was glad che did not have
to wait for nod from the galleries be-
fore voting"
He asserted that Murdoch looked to
officials of the American Federation of
Labor for approval for every act on the
floor. Then turning to the gallery where
Secretary Morrison and half a dozen la
Dor attorneys were seated, Moore shout
ed:
81 will never vote to exempt Rookie
Teller or Carnegie or Samuel Gompers or
Morrison from the prison laws of the
country"
Mann teased Murdoch and the Pro-
gressives for what he declared was an
attitude He said that
Monday, on one of the labor amendments
the Progressive members were divided.
I'VE are told" said Mr. Mann, that
the Progressive members didn't know
where they stood on these amendments
until they consulted Colonel Roosevelt.
We are told that the gentleman from
Kansas (Murdockl went to New York
to consult the colonel. but evidently he
didn't get the information he sought"
"The genius of our party is that we
permit individual opinions retorted
Murdock
NO" said Mann, "the gentleman had
to go to New York TO ask the colonel
what the gentleman from Kansas
thinks"

Menus Shorter and Simpler.

! Whoever dimes out much has noticed
| for several seasons a tendency to shorter
and simpler menus. The present sea
son has emphasized this to such an ex-
! tent that the chefs whose earning ca
pacity depends upon their ability to keep
up interest in food are quite discouraged
at the apparent Indifference to unusual
dishes.
There is no longer the dawdling over
the dinner which was once the rule.
There are two reasons advanced for the
change, saws n Denver Times writer.
People want to eat and get through with
it and have more time for dancing, OF
they dance so much between courses that
they are unmindful of their food.
So many dinners and luncheons start
with the fruit drink that it is well to
have the exact proportions of this most
agreeable cOncoction at hand. Grape
fruit, oranges, pineapples and bananas
are the fruits most often used.
Take one cup of grapefruit, being sure
to remove all the skin, one-half cup of
orange pulp and bananas and third of
cup of pineapple which has been finely
shredded with a silver fork. Mix and
let stand for few minutes. Melt half
tumbler OF cuIrant Jelly add the Juice
of large lemon and sweeten to taste
with powdered sugar.
1t is well TO add the sugar to the Jelly
while it is melting over the fire and then
the lemon juice as you remove it. Pour
the sauce over the fruit while It is still
hot, and chill in the icebox. Serve in
tall glasses which come for the purpose
Grapefruit sometimes replaces the fruit
drink. 1t is easy to prepare grapefruit
If you have the right kind of a knife
to loosen the pulp. remove the core and
seeds. This may be purchased in any
place where kitchen cutlery is sold, and
is the most useful implement the cook
can have. When the grapefruit is in
proper shape add powdered sugar and let
stand in the icebox for an hour or so.
One of the most attractive of fruit
salads is pOinsettia salad. Take a slice
OF canned pineapple and arrange it on a
lettuce leaf. Cut wedgeshaped slices
from red apples and place three, skin
side up. radiating from the center of the
pineapple. Between the apple use sin
gle dates. Serve with mayonnaise dress
ing to which has been added whipped
cream.

Washington, June 3.-William Rookie

Francis McAdams, special examiner
for the commission, has seen Rockefeller,
it was stated, and has made report

health, got married several days ago.

that J. p Morgan had not been asked

whether Morgan would be able to shed
any new light on the New Haven trans

IN BOSTON MARKETS.
Butter Prices Firm, Good Eggs None
Too Plenty and Firm in Price.

Boston, June 3-There is decidedly
firm market locally for butter, not that
the demand is at all brisk or that the
supply is deficient but rather because OF
the strength Of the primary markets,
which at present reflect an active de-
mand from the packing interests. Early
grass butter is high-colored and is used
by the packers to give color to oleomar-
garine; hence, the activity OF these fac
tors in the primary markets. The cheese
market is frnler, and while prices have
not yet been marked up, it is believed
they will be later in the week, owing to
the increased cost of landing cheese in
this market, due to rise OF 7-S@ lie a
pound in the primary markets Good
eggs are none too plenty and hold quite
firm in price.

plies to any alterations round the hips.
whether the skirt is being taken in or
| let out.
! When making a dress or blouse yoke
it should be finished before any embroid-
erv is done upon it, so that the work
will come in the right place when fitted
into the blouse and set smoothly round
the neck.
! Never start cutting out until all OF
the pattern is fitted onto the material
| If it is done piece by piece some of the
material will be wasted.
To make dress shields for thin blouses
cut thin white flannel the size desired
trim the edge with narrow lace and tic
in the dress with narrow tape.
If buttons tear away from a wooden
sweater or wooden fabric try sewing
them on with small linen button on
the wrong side. Pass the needle through
both buttons at one time.
In using perforated patterns, where
only one-half of the pattern is given,
place carbon paper on the underside of
the material where it is, to be marked
through perforation, and both sides can
be marked without turning the pattern
over
The use of colored cotton instead of
white for lacking white material makes
it much easier to follow the seams ac-
curately on the machine. The tackings
are also more easily and quickly re-
moved.
Soak the whalebones taken from a
