last night among the foothills of the
Sierra Madras must have suffered
keenly for though the norther Of yes

broke during the afternoon, clear cold

morning there was half an inch Of

Many cattlemen have joined the com
mand, anxious to render what service
they can. They are of one opinion,
that this country must be policed by
United States troops for many months
before it is safe for ranchers to return
to their homes and they are hoping
that the Administration will see its
way clear to provide such protection.
Horses stolen and restolen and far
from their home ranges are drifting
about this district like the wild horses

socoNY KEROSENE
Reason Why It Is Better Than ordin
ary Oils.

\ sharp distinction is drawn be-
tween ordinary kerosene and the
specially distilled product of the
Standard Oil Company of New York
in the trademarked name-socony
kerosene. There is probably no
greater mistake than the belief which
still prevails in some quarters, that
all kerosene is the same, when the
truth is, the grades differ as widely as
the grades of sugar or tea or coffee.
Injector grades OF Kerosene give a
smoke and odor when used in the
lamp or in the oil stove. The distilla
tion process that produces Socony
kerosene gives clear-burning pro
duct which has maxium efficiency in
lighting power and heat units. The
trademark. socony, is an assurance
that a gallon of that oil viii give ser

is the uniformity. And the saving eff
fected by the use of kerosene as com
pared with coal is a matter to be
borne in mind,

THE LITTLE PRINCESS
To Be Produced by the Tahkoneac
Camp Fire Girls on April 1914.

Sdnp r ire 1lTIS on HpTlI To- ~.
= Very few of us are ever afforded the
great honor OF being presented at
court or of knowing real princess.
But as the next best thing, an oppor-
tunity is to be given to Bennington
boys and girls to actually meet little
princess on Thursday evening, April
18th when Sara Crewe, the Little
Princess of Miss Minchins genteel
school will appear at Library hall.
The Tahkoneac Camp Fire Girls, as
sisted by friends, have been working
on this play for several months and it
is expected that the production will be
most worthwhile.
The play, with Frances Hodgson
Burnettas its author, has been played
by professionals, but is within the
range of the local amateurs, especially
under the capable coaching OF Mrs. Ell
Hot. and is one of the favorities of the
Educational Dramatic league, Quite
considerable royalty must be paid to
secure the right of producing this play
and in view of this fact 1t is hoped that
the public patronage will be liberal so
to reward the efforts of the young
people beside lending support to one
of the most worthy OF organizations
the Camp Fire Girls.
Children under ii years of age will
be admitted on Thursday night at the
final dress rehearsal for ten cents All
seats on Friday night will be twenty
five cents, sale OF tickets to be al
nounced later.

TIN smelling BECOMES
AIN AMERICAN INDUSTRY
Bolivian Ore viii Be Imported by Re-
fning Company with Plant at
Perth Amboy, N. ].

Commerce Reports" announce the es-
adjustment OF an entirely new INDUSTRY
In the United States. All arrangements
have been completed for the importation
of Bolivian tin ore by the American
Smelling and Refining Company, and q
large plant has beeen erected at Perth
Amboy, N. j., for smelling and refining
the raw material 1t will be the first
attempt to establish the industry on a
large scale in the United States.
The first definite information that such
an undertaking had been decided upon
was contained in a letter to Secretary
Redfield from William Loeb, IT.. OF the
American Smelling and Refining Com
pany, in which It was stated that new
plant had been practically completed al
Perth Amboy for the smelling of tin
ores and concentrates and the electrolytic
refining of tin Mr.. Loeb stated that
this country imports about 5000 tons
or tin yearly. and OF this about 30 per
cent is Straits tin. which is consumed
largely in the production Of tin plate
The Straits Settlements impose an ex-
port duty on tin ores, thus compelling
the reduction to metallic form in the
country in which 1t is produced.
The Bolivian tin, according to Mr..
Loeb's letter. contains impurities which,
with the established methods of smelt-
ing, 90 not produce TIN suitable Tor tin
plate, but the plant at Perth Amboy
proposes not only to smelt the impure
ores from Bolivia and other countries
but to refine the product by the electricity
tic process A recent analysis OF this
electrolytic tin by experienced chemists
showed it to run 99.9S per cent pure
while the base metal from which it was
produced contained only 80 per cent For
the manufacture of tin plate this tin is
pronounced as good as the best Straits
tin.
- I'm addition to building tho plant and
purchasing the South American tin ores, -
writes Mr.. Loeb, I'VE are financing the
miners by making liberal advances i'm
mediately ON shipments from South
America. We hope eventually to be able
to extend our present plant and increase
the business considerably. In the initial
steps OF our negotiations to secure these
tin ores. We were greatly helped by the
cooperation OF the chief OF your Blu
reau OF Foreign and Domestic Commerce,

ment in South America, and by the State
