the state of Oklahoma will begin to
improve from the moment that Cover
nor Williams signs this bill and by
such act makes it the law of the
state. | predict that every state in the
Union, where oil is produced, will
speedily follow the example set by
Oklahoma, and pass similar legislation
to the bill under discussion. 1t is a
great step forward, and in this case,
as in so many others, Oklahoma is
pointing the way to progress and bet

NOT AGAINST PIPE LINES.
Oil Legislation Designed to Protect
Producers from One Another.

Oil Legislation Designed to Protect
Producers from One Another.
In speaking of the new oil legisla
tion by the state legislature in ses-
sion now, Roy NJ Johnson, president
of the Crystal Oil company, and ed
itor of The Ardmore Statesman, said
yesterday
The oil conservation measure that
has just passed the Oklahoma legis-
lature is something new in oil legis-
lation. Contrary to general opinion,
the bill is not aimed at the pipe
lines, but is an effort to protect
producers from each other. The car
rying out of the provisions of this
law will place the oil fields of the
state in the same position as if they
were owned by one man, with the
corporation commission in charge of
general policies of development.
with conditions as they are at
present, with production far exceed
ing market requirements, Oklahoma
producers have demoralZed the oil
market of the whole country. Though
Oklahoma produced 1OO,OOOO00 barrels
of oil in 1914, the producers received
for it less than they did for 66,000,O00
barrels in 1913, also resulting in re-
ducing the price almost one-half in
most of the oil fields of the United
States.
THE measure is based on an Indi-
ana decision, affirmed by the United
States supreme court, which held that
the state had the power to regulate
the bringing of oil and gas to the
surface. The bill will stop the pro-
ducing of oil in excess or market re-
quirements, and prohibits storing it.
At present there are five sellers of
oil to every buyer, and each, in his
eagerness to find market, is willing
to sell under the prevailing price.
This has resulted in Cushing oil fall
ing from $1O5 a year ago to 40 cents
today
The bill will give the corporation
commission power to regulate the
drilling in of wells according to mar
ket demands This. in the opinion
of the trainers of the bill, will stiff n
the market and eventually bring the
price of oil up to figure fair TO
producer and consumer alike.
Had the Cushing operators cut
down d'illing last summer as have
Healdton producers, the total pro
duction of Oklahoma today would not
be much in excess of requirements |
and the market would be mach sitter. |
This hll will enable the small
producer to operate his property as
profitably as the big operators aloue
have been able to do in the past,
when the latter's money enabled |
them to build storage to take care |
Of their surplus oil, while their poorer
neighbor, unable to care for the pro-
iuction of his offsetting wells, was
forced either into bankruptcy or to
sell at a sacrifice.
1T is not likely that the pipe !
lines will attempt to evade the law.
\ number of individual producers |
may attempt by federal injunction to
interfere with the operation of the
statute, but such delay in carrying |
it out is likely to be only short. /
Those who object to the bill as some /
thing new and impossible should re-
member than ten years or more ago .
the same thing was said regarding
the governments ability to regulate
and control the railroads"

A FORECAST OF SPRING
AND SUMMER FABRICS
Waists Are Made Severely Plain, While Skirts
Are Full and Flaring
BELTS AND PEASANTS BASOUES

NEW YORK, MARCH 1.-The Spring
has variety of styles which run the
gamut of those we have had, only in
new forms, and those inspired by Rus
STA, France, Belgium and Holland.
The full skirt, however, is without
doubt, first in style, whether inspired
by peasant skirts of Victorian crino-
line. 1t may be cut circular, gored with
as many cores as nine, straight pleated
or gathered, the requirement being that
it flares at the bottom.
The Dutch costumes are particularly
suited to the young girl. They often
have broad strap over the shoulders,
with blouse buttoning stright down
the center front. The skirt is full, with
a slight bullying at the hips. Sometimes
these dresses are topped with short
Dutch jacket. White or Delft blu. are
favored colors for this style of dress.

ers, together with gabardine. Cheviot
is the novelty, and a very practical one.
Checks in black and white are shown
in variety of materials, also dark blue
and white. A very fine invisible check
is considered very smart, it comes in
many smooth fabrics, like prunella and
novelty chiffon broadcloths or lady 3
CLOTH
Of the heavier cotton fabrics, a cot
ton gabardine stands among the first
sellers. This fabric has high lustre
and is very effective. Materials with a
corded effect are used almost more than
anything else for dresses of either heavy
or sheer weight. The lighter weight
first introduced by French and English
manufacturers is called "filete'. And,
hence, any fabric with corded weave,
such as wolfe or crepe are said to have
a filete finish. Wolfe is the most fash
ionable Of the cotton fabrics, because Of
its softness and it's durability. Dotted
Swiss and marquisette are two other ma
terials which rank very close in popu-
larity to wolfe. Net in black over white
satin or taffeta as we'll as white and
colored nets are very smart for elabo-
rate frocks. Pink and blue nets make
delightful evening frocks and are
trimmed with jet.
The styles of the summer dresses
make it certainty that embroidery and
lace flouncing will be used great deal
in their development. The embroidery
flouncings have background of wolfe
and crepe as well as very sheer lawn
and batisto. Organdy, too, is embroid-
cred and makes light and airy floun-
cling for summer dresses.
The Belgian lace centers are produc.
ing no lace and the French very little
so most of the imported lace comes
from Plauen or st. Gall. Chantilly
Spanish and Lire lace are among the
more expensive ones, while shadow lace
may be had in wide variety of designs
and prices, and its light and delicate de
signs make exquisite frocks for evening
wear.

ABERDEEN Is AFTER BRIDGE.

Believing that the interests of Poca.

the condition of the Aberdeen and other
sections materially improved by the To-
cation of bridge at Aberdeen, instead
of at Tilden, W. T. Wade, a well known
resident of the Aberdeen section, was a
visitor in the city yesterday and was
talking over the matter with local par
ties, and the project will be advanced
in good shape.
Some time ago movement was start.
ed for the restoration Of the old Tilden
bridge, the river having cut aroung it,
and put it out of commission, and the
proposition made good Roadway. The
new plan, however, seems to be to so.
cure the cooperation of Bingham coun-
ty in that it's interest in the old bridge
is secured, and move it to Aberdeen, and
on face of the map that has been pre-.
pared it would appear to be fully as
good it not better plan, than to utilize
the old route. An attempt will be made
to secure state aid in the completion
OF the work, as the Aberdeen route
would be directly on one of the state
highway systems, and large stretch of
present highway would be used on the
route from the start.
As the project stands, completion Of
the bridge would make the distance to
Aberdeen twenty-one miles, and after
its completion it would of course be a
comparatively simple matter to reach
the Springfield country, by far shorter
route than at the present time.
Chairman Turner Of the highway
commission will be in Boise the first Of
next week, and the matter will be Civ.

MUST PAY COST OF
THE APPRAIsENENT.

One per cent. Of the amount desired
must accompany any application for
loan from the state funds in the future
as the result of resolution adopted
by the state land board. The amount
so secured will be used in making an
appraisement ON the land offered as &C.
curity.
This is said to be one of the most i'm
portant and far-reaching resolutions
adopted by the land board in several
years. 1t is thought that, by requiring
borrowers to pay for the appraisement,
many requests for assistance will be
eliminated, while those asking for loans
will be sure to make just requests. A
great many loans now refused are de-
MED because of inflated values.

OPEN PARK TO

Because of the fair and general ac-

season for motor travel, and there is
reasonable assurance that Pocatello will

Dear Mr.. Mather:-I had several con.

the Yellowstone National park. Mr..
Miller fully agreed with me that as
soon as conditions were ripe it would
be beneficial to have automobiles used
in the park. 1t was necessary at that
time to have certain Improvements and
changes made in the roads through the
park. My understanding is that this
work has been completed, and I have
been wondering if it was not possible to
give the people who visit the exposition
the advantages that automobile service
in the park would afford. 1t would be
splendid thing if we should have this
service in the park during the exposi.
