An almost universal seller Is market
prevails. The knowledge of this fact
has made many statesmen dictatorial
in their dealings with buyers. The
latter, of course, resent this treat
ment especially when it comes from
statesmen, unknown to them. A sales
man, who has been a long time in the
business, said that the seller who
takes undue advantage of present con
ditions to make it hard for the buyer
is storing up trouble for the future
- If the statesmen would only recog-
nize," he said, that now is the
time to make friends they might reap
considerable advantage from the stu
alton which the war has brought.
Buyers are human, and they do not
forget the indignities and discourtesy
heaped upon them when everything is
going the sellers way.''

THE SHIP PURCHASE BILL

The Government Ship Purchase
Bill framed after extended conference
es between administration leaders and
congress and other high officials was
introduced last week in the House, by
Representative Alexander of Missou-
ri. Hearings will begin on this bill in
short while.
The House is expected to pass the
bill, but despite changes made to sat
isfy Democratic Senators, strong OPP
position among the reactionaries is
anticipated in the Senate. Leaders,
however, declare they are confident
that even if Democrats who helped
sidetrack the bill year ago, still OPP
posed it, passage would be assured by
the support of Progressive Republi-
cans and three new Democratic addi-
tions to the Senate.
It was said last week that at least
six of the seven unAmerican Demo
Gratis who voted against the measure
last session, were still unyielding ii
their opposition, because of the pro.
vision which gives the Government
power to operate ship lines in times
of peace when satisfactory leases tc
private operators cannot be negotiat.
ed These six are Clarke of Arkan.
sas, Bankhead of Alabama, Hitch
cock of Nebraska, Hardwick of Geor.
gia, O'Gorman of New York and Ward
man of Mississippi. The three new
Senators expected to vote favorably
are Beckman, Husting and johnson.

Some of the Deep Drill Holes in Missouri

Although not minable under pres
ent conditions, it is an interesting
fact that at 1868 feet in the Forest
City well and at 1880 feet in the Ran
kin well bed of iron ore was en-
countered that is similar to the Clinton
iron ores of New York and to the red
iron ores worked so extensively in
Birmingham, Alabama.
The underlying granite or porphyry
was encountered at the following
depths in several of the wells: St,
Louis, 1903 feet; Raytown, 1874 feet;
and Carthage, 1850 feet. In Madison,
Iron, st. Francois and adjoining coun-
ties this granite occurs at the surface,
and comprises the billy country
known as the st. Francois Mountains,

lhere are eleven deep drill noleS IN
Missouri that have penetrated to a
depth of more than 1000 feet accord
ing to table issued by the State &C.
ologist, H. A. Buehler, of Rolla. These
and other deep holes are the result of
prospecting for mineral, oil, gas or an
adequate water supply.
In pioneer days when transporta-
ton was difficult, and mostly by wag-
on, salt, which was obtained largely
from the east, was an article greatly
sought after and was obtained, in
some parts of the State by evaporat-
ing waters from "naturel salt
springs" To encourage the search
for strong brines, the State Of Mis-
souri, in 1928 appropriated money to
sink we'll at Spalding, Rails county.
By very primitive methods this well
was sunk successfully to depth of
$50 feet. While this depth would
now be considered hardly more than
start on the ordinary deep hole, at
that time it was a notable depth, and
probably the deepest well in the Up
per Mississippi Valley.
st. Louis for many years had the
deepest wells in the United States.
The Belcher well at Main and ORAL
lon streets, started in 1849 and COM
pleted in 1854, reached depth of
2199 feet. 1t antidates the first deep
wells of the Pennsylvania oil fields
and was the deepest we'll in the Unit
ed States at that time. The st. Louis
Insane Asylum well, completed in
1869 depth 3S43 feet), when drilled
was also the record depth in the coun-
try, and is still the deepest well in
Missouri by more than HOO feet.
AS shown by the following list the
deep wells are widely scattered
throughout the State:
Insane Asylum well, st.
| Louis .................. oo43 Ieel'
R. D. Silver well, st.
Charles county ........ 27O0 feet.
Forest City Diamond Drill
Hole, Holt county. ...... 25O0 feet.
Raytown Diamond Drill
Hole, Jackson county. :. .241O feet.
Rankin Deep Well, At
Gibson county ......... 234O feet.
Pacific Deep Well, Stod-
dard county ............2275 feet
Dexter Deep Well, Stod-
dard county ...........2 25O feet.
Belcher Artesian Well,
st. Louis .2l99 feet'
Barring Deep Well, Knox
county ................ .Z1zo leeI'
Moberly Deep Well, Ran
Dolph county ...........21OO feet.
These wells show many interesting
facts concerning the formations and
water horizons throughout the State.
Pacific, Belcher and Silver are flow
ing artesian wells. The Dexter,
Belcher, Barring, Insane Asylum and
Silver wells produce sulpho-saline wa
tiers. The Carthage and Pacific wells
yield fresh water. The Rankin well
passed through several horizons of
salt water, but encountered fresh wa
ter near the bottom.

consignment on small occasions, and
reserving it for situations that plain
ly call for more than ordinary lam
guage can convey. Like O'Connell,
one might cultivate such a vocabu-
larry as he used in his debate with the
isherwoman when he paralyzed her
by calling her hypotenuse and par
allelopipedon. Or one might store up
a few elephantine remarks like DR..
Johnson's overwhelming reply to the
abusive bargeman, to crush someone
utterly in acrimonious debate.

thing else will fit the case, and then
probably he will not swear at all. AS
for the ladies-well, l do not like to
hear a pretty woman say damn it,,
say, when her corset hooks and eyes
don't connect when she's hurrying to
dress for the theatre. Or when she
foozles at golf But it is irreverent
to take the name of God in vain if
you believe in God, and it is silly if
you don't believe.
So, please don't swear, or curse Ell
Their. When a reckless chauffeur just
takes button off your vest with his
car, in turning a corner, just retain
yourself a moment, turn back to the
sidewalk and bite a piece out of the
lamp-post. 1t is just as RATIONAL

THE CAMPAIGN FOR
PREPAREDNESS

President Wilson has clearly DEM
onstrated by the warm approval of his
speeches the fact that the people of
the United States are earnestly in ia
vor of an adequate army and navy,
and other defensive means with which
to defend these glorious United States,
in case it is attacked from whatever
source. The President was much
pleased with the tremendous ovations
which he received in Milwaukee,
where the German-American popula-
ton is so pre-ponderating. These
German Americans show not only that
they are Americans first, and Germans
afterwards, but that they believe in
the stars and stripes so sincerely that
they desire the United States to be
adequately prepared for defense
against any nation.

IL you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubling too
If you wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;
If you dream and not make dreams your master;
If you think and not make thoughts your aim;
If you meet with triumph disaster
And treat those two imposters just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves made trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken
And stoop and build em up with worn-out tools;
If you talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings nor lose the common touch
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but too much;
If you fill the unforgiving minutes
With sixty seconds worth of distance run,
Yours is the earth and everything that's in it,
