Osages Turn Down Navy's Request.

o~a9eG IufH DOWN navy = iN'b"' -
When Secretary Of the Navy jose
phus Daniels, conceived of the idea of
supplying the navy with oil for fuel
instead Of coal, an important factor I'M
his scheme was TO purchase or lease
lands in Usage county and produce
the oil rather than to have 10 go into
the open market and buy the tuel
from some refinery that had that
product to sell.
II was this phase Of the matter,
the production Of its own OIL ihat
struck the navy officials SO faNorabIy
and an of the estimates submitted
were based on the production oi us
own fuel oil.
When the Usage lands were placed
on the market last year, they brought
am unprecedented amount of bonuses
for undevcloped land and brought
Usage county into prominence all over
the country. The subsequent deNeI-
opment of the Gypsy oil companys
Boston pool in that county, attracted
the attention Of Secretary Daniels,
who saw an opportunity, as he sup
posed to secure some Of this land'
and drill its own wells and no en-
abled in that manner to have its own
oil, a long way from the coast, IT IS
true. and it would not be fit for fg"L
but nevertheless, it would own IT'S
own production.
Curiousy enough the first real
check to the governments scheme
comes from the Usage Indians them
selves who, when the subject Of allow
ing the government to lease some lahu
by private arrangement i'm their coun-
", bluntly told the government u
could lease the land if 1t cared To, but
il would have TO be in q regular man
ner and by bid, the highest bidder
getting the land, with no fayors shown
to the government or any one else.
The navy department had a num-
Der Of men out in Usage county some
weeks ago. and these men picked out

BOYS PIG CLUB.
A New Organization Started by De-
partment Of Agriculture.

A New Organization Started by De-
partment of Agriculture.
The department of agriculture has
its Boys Corn club and its Girls Can
ming club and now comes the Boys
Pig club, being organized in the south
for the purpose of increasing the sup
ply of pork and encouraging good
breeding Of hogs. Already clubs have
been organized in Alabama and Louisi-
ana, and club organization has been
started in Georgia. 1t is the purpose
Of the officials of the department to or
ganize clubs in every southern state.
The idea of the organization started
with the farmers cooperative demon
stratiOn and has been carried on with
the cooperation of the animal hus-
bandry branch of the bureau of animal
industry. The organization is an off
shoot Of the Boys Corn club, which
has an organization in every southern
state and which has been the means
Of producing record breaking yields Of
corn. The Pig club when thoroughly
organized will, it is expected, work
hand In hand with the Corn club. The
boys of the latter will produce the corn,
and the boys of the newly organized
association will see to it that the pigs
are produced to eat the corn.
In connection with the organization
Of the Pig club the department makes
the following statement:
1t is the purpose of the department
to have every member of the club en-
courage not only an increased produc-
lion of the swine family, bat better
breed Of pigs than is being raised at
present. 1t is a serious purpose the Of
ficials of the department are engaged
in-one that Is aimed at the high cost
Of living.
The production Of pork Is not keep
ing pace with the increased popula-
ton. and something must be done to
harmonic these two elements. If each
member of the club-and they will be
growing. II is expected. all the time
will see to 1t that one more pig and a
better pig is produced each year, then
a long step will have been taken in
meeting the ever growing chasm be-
tween pork production and increased
population.

This avoids the dangers of overhead

storing preserve those Of most perfect

MEASURING THE EARTH.
The Pole Star Is the Guide to the So
luton of the Problem.

The Pole Star Is the Guide to the So
luton of the Problem.
AS the earth is sphere, its mag
nitude will depend on the length
of its diameter or its circumference.
But how can the length of either
be ascertained? We cannot follow
line through the center of the
earth to the antipodes, nor can we
even travel around the surface of
the earth in a great circle to meas
ure the circumference, nor is it
necessary to attempt either. As
the circumference of the earth, like
the circumference of every circle, is
conceived to be divided into $50
equal parts or degrees, it is evil
dent that if we can ascertain the
length of any one Of these parts we
have only to multiply it by $50 to
find the length of the circumfer-
ence. And if we divide the circum-
ference by II we get the diam
eter. To illustrate:
The latitude of Philadelphia is 80
degrees 81 minutes north. This is
the altitude of the north pole of
the celestial sphere. Now, the polar
star is not at the north pole of the
heavens, but near it. The pole
star is / IA degrees from the pole
and describes a small circle around
it. Such stars are called circum-
polar. The pole star is selected to
find the precise position of the
north pole of the heavens. Its up
per and lower EXAMINATIONS (highest
and lowest points, are accurately
noted. The point midway between
these two positions Of the star is
the pole of the heavens.
Knowing the altitude of the pole,
not of the pole star, if we travel
due north or south till we find that
the pole has increased or decreased
degree in altitude, it is evident
from what has been said that we
have travelled a degree on the
earth's surface, and if we measure
the distance in miles travelled over,
making due allowance for elevated
ground, etc., we have the length of
degree, and if we multiply this
length by $50 we have the entire
circumference, and if we divided
this circumference by 3 II we get
the diameter. The length of a de-
gree of latitude on the earth's sur
face is found by actual measure
ment to be 50 Ito miles, which,
multiplied by $50, gives S4,S76
miles in the circumference of the
earth, and which distance. divided
by 3 II, gives about 5000 miles al,
ameter. The exact student would
divide by 3.14l6. The mean diam
eter of the earth is nearly 1886
miles.-P Philadelphia Telegraph.

Pioneer:
George S. Barnes was over to
Washburn Monday to attend a meet

Barnes says that the plans are being
carefully worked out and that Bay

Fred Dahl, aged nine years, while

Zoe Savage, daughter of Mr., and
Mrs. P. j. Savage. while riding a

little obstruction in the road at

front wheel of the bike to turn

serious doubt in their minds as to
the wisdom of expanding that much

cured on the cost of concrete build

such a building with heating plant
can be constructed for about 81, 500,

from the ssle of lumber from the old
building not needed will pay the ex-
pense of tearing the old hall down.
