Office caused an halaton about the white
head OF an old man, one of the principal
characters. After the picture was finished
this was discovered. The director took
several "close-ups" OF this character against

his office scenes mostly in 'ciose-ups"

MATING TIME FOR TURKEYS

Strong, healthy, vigorous turkeys
Will mate and begin to lay at the very
opening OF the breeding season, while
weaker stock will merely consume
reed until the warmer weather makes
itself felt in the spring. 1t is true that
the feed and care that the birds re.
celve, the proportion of males to fe-
males, and many other things enter
into the matter Of egg-fertility and
strength of the germs, but besides all
these the strength of the ancestral
stock plays no little part. Without
good care strong birds may not beget
strong poults, but no amount of care
will enable weak birds to produce
strong ones.
1t is after the spring matches that
the difference between good stock and
weak stock makes itself most keenly
felt in turkeydom, for that is the time
when the poult mortality runs high

Fifty-twO locations have been made
during the past week, and actual work
is under Roadway at fourteen of them.
The Company desires soon to have
the balance of forty drills in opera
ton and keep them going until our
production is over ten thousand bar
rels per day.
We have three refneries, over ten
thousand acres of lands and leases in
! the real oil belt, and have the larger
percentage of this big property con-
nected by our own pipe line, now in
operation for over 1865 miles We al
ready have over 100 oil and gas wells.
While our properties have increased
in value about 10 times during the past
year, we are still letting the stock go
on very low basis, because we want
the cash to drive the drills on our
proven properties with-while oil
is high and the demand increasing
which may mean $500 crude by early
summer. An oil company can be man
aged just as honestly as bank or
any other business institution. We
need new capital to drill these new
wells and to acquire new properties to
be fortified for the future.
There is about one-sixth of the stock
unissued. This stock is allotted among
the present stockholders on a condi-
tional stock dividend basis and hun
