Oil World. This has been repeated
time and time again, and is now going
to happen in the oil fields of Wyo-
ming and the other states of the
Rocky Mountain region. The present
apparent inconsumption is due not 50
much to ability of production to keep
up with the decline of the output, but
to the enormous increase in demand,
due to the increasing use of the gaso.
line engine, which is now further u
mented by war conditions. In all
probability Mother Earth still contains
billions of barrels of petroleum.
There is nothing in the history of
oil production to warrant the belief
that we shall not discover these fields.
Like the gold and copper, they may be
at our back door. Some of the great
est fields in the United States have
been found by accident.
No surface showing marked the ex-
istence of the Big Muddy field, now ar,
irving i'll Wyoming. Biologists walk
ed over it hundreds of times and it was
not learned by men wise in the oil
game.
The Kern River field, neal Bakers
field, California, did not have a sur
face,mark of oil. The man who discoy-
cred it was u farmer who had detected
the presence of oil SAND in digging an
irrigation ditch. 1t has produced over
150,OO0,OO0 barrels and will continue to
produce for many years yet. 1t is i'm
possible to conceive that there are not
more Kern Rivers and Big Muddys.
The state of Wyoming was once the
deepest part of an ocean, which has
been raised by volcanic action to an
altitude far above the present ocean
level. Through untold ages the ele-
ments have been ut work washing
away the surface and bringing the
sedimentary deposits, which contain
the oil, close to the surface. a few
favorable localities have been marked
as commercial oil producers. Not one
tenth of one per cen of the oil i'll Wy
oming has yet been discovered. 1t is
an oil field from IL end of the state
to the other, and this fact will grip any
man who travels over it. There is now
IL threatening oil shortage, but unless
the demands of van are far greater
than we now anticipate, Wyoming, and
probably the adjacent states, will sup
ply the shortage. Give us men and ma
terials with which to work and the
great Rocky Mountain region will fur
nish the oil.

Whenever ! catch an animal that
cav as a natural odor in the vicinity ]
am almost sure to get another in the
same place. An animal will come n
long distance to investigate a scent OF
its w kind. One should be very care
full not to leave human odor of any
kind when killing n trapped animal
since this will Brighten away another
fur bearer who has come to find the
cause of the scent.
Few trappers stop to think how keen.
ly sensitive Is the nose of a game or
fur bearing animal. Just suppose that
you could smell as many things as you
can see. Cover carefully every human
odor on the trap line and you have half
caught your animal. Then use some
good scent to tickle his sensitive nose
and you will win.
One of the best single drugs that can
be used to allure a fur bearer is oil of
anise. OIL of lavender, asafetlda, rho,
dunn and peppermint are often used
together in manufactured bats. / think
the most dependable scent bait that /
have used is fish oil.-F. L. Brimmer In

NOTHING TO
WORRY ABOUT.

Don't worry about the draft" says
n of the boys from an eastern state,
writing from the battle front some
where in France" According to this
writer, there is really nothing to worry
about. He has been on the firing line
and knows what he is talking about.
Addressing the young men of this coun-
try, he says:
There is nothing to worry about.
You nave two Observation-Disclosures you
are drafted or you are not. If not, you
have nothing to worry about. If you
are drafted, you have two alternatives
you are in camp or you are at the
front. If you are in camp you have
nothing to worry about. If you are at
the front, you have two alternatives
either you are held in reserve or you
are sent to h firing line. If you are
i'll reserve, o have nothing to worry
about. If you are sent to the firing
line, you have two NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
you fight or you don't. If you don't,
you have nothing to worry about. If
o do, o ave two alternatives
either you get hurt or you don't. If
o don't, you have nothing to worry
about. If you do get hurt, you have
w alternatives-either you are slight
ly hurt or badly hurt. If slightly hurt,
you have nothing to worry about. If
badly hurt, you have two alternatives
either you recover or you don't. If
o recover, you have nothing to worry
about. If you don't recover, then you
are dead and can't worry. So what's
the use of worrying about the draft?"

one indignant hero from the Land of the Maple Leaf. Why" he continued, T Gould tell you stories that would make your hair curl, when good old chewing gum was mans best pal next to flags
 There can be ho doubt, after a careful investigation of the consensus of opinion among the men who have actually been to the front as well as those there or preparing to go, American chewing gum is a big fa- vorite with the soldier boys. Only one thing can account for this great popularity, and that is the benefits derived from chewing gum.
 For instance, one of the most amaz- ing and often amusing spectacles of the war is to find a man from one of the great universities insisting upon getting his share of chewing gum--a commodity, let it be whis- pered, that the same gentleman con- sidered plebeian before the war. But, different times, different customs And the war has certainly proven a great factor for democracy.
 There would be no need to tell in detail the benefits of chewing gum to our gallant boys in the army and navy. The one big outstanding fact
 is that they positively crave it ard l they can't get enough of it. It stimu- 1 lates the brain, quickens the diges- l tion. and cams the nerves. A very | famous English general has cheming
 gum served every night at mess
 Where men must be alert you will
 find chewing gum,' has become i | proverb.
 And. of course. our boys depeLd
 for their chewing gum upon their
 friends, whose battles they are fight 1 ing. That's why a number of public spirited people in the Navy league
 have periodically undertaken ths arduous task of supervising the dis tribution of public gifts to our fight
 ing forces. All contributions fol
 chewing gum will be gladly received

GIVEN CHANCE
 IN DRAF I LAW

Desirous of giving registrants with in it's jurisdiction every chance to comply with the provisions of the draft. the Maricopa local exemption board has issued a list of names, to- gether with the request that it be pub lished, in which questionnaires were mailed to the registrants who could not be located at the last addresses given the board. The board requests that those whose questionnaires have been undelivered and returned by the postal authorities, may save them selves from being classified as desert CTS by immediately getting in touch with the board, obtaining their ques- tionnaires and filling them out under the regular provisions. The names are as follows:
 Andres Cariaga, Peoria; John H. Sanders. Tolleson; Carl Siprieno, Buckeye; August Hertrenne. Tolleson; William L. Lyons, Tempe; John l.. R Rogers, rural delivery No. 8, Phoenix
 These men were all examined under the first draft and it is the opinion of the board that there is no intention or their part to evade compliance with the questionnaire provisions. Ac- ton, however. is incumbent upon theii part it is stated.

That MT. and Mrs. Ernest Bennett are the parents of twin daughters was the interesting word received by their Phoenix relatives yesterday from Glen dale, Calif., where the Bennetts have been making their home for the past year. The twins have something in common with their father who is also a twin. The son of Mr. and Mrs. Wal ter Bennett of this city. MT Bennett is the twin brother of Mrs. Charles A Stauffer.
 Another singular coincidence will be recalled by the fact that when the pop ular young clubman decided to marry he chose girl of his own name, his bride being Miss Emma Bennett, a much sought after southern California belle and a niece of Mir. and Mrs. |. J. Bennitt of Phoenix.
