Is highly combustible gas made by secret process of nature. It is not a chemical com pound, as popularly supposed but mechanical mixture of several combustible and diluent gases and vapors thoroughly dffused; that is, thor. oughly intermixed through each other, the num- Der and exact proportion of the various crude natural constituents varying for the different To- caities and somewhat during the working lives of individual wells
 1t is fluid composed of large number of molecules which are vehicles of energyand con- tlnually in motion and having an inherent tendency to get farther and farther apart The range of motion of molecules is limited only by the volume of the closed containing vessel in which they constantly move to and fro, that is the molecules are in state of constant bomdard ment against each other and against the sides of the containing vessel
 Natural Gas pressure is the result of the com bined efforts of all the moving molecules in the gas to get farther and farther apart; that is mass ot gas enclosed in a vessel expands and fills it, and, being restrained from further expansion, 1t exercises pressure against the walls of the vessel This pressure is the same in all directions on equal areas of surface. Contracting the vol ume of gas increases the intensity of its internal molecular motion and therefore increases its pressure
 With given mass of gas any increase in VOL tune of containing vessel will give the mol ecules more range of otion and there by low CT the pressure. Thus, if a part of a eiven mass of gas is removed from a closed vessel or reservoir, the remaining mass of gas will ex- Pand instantly and keep the vessel or reser- voir. filled, but at a lower pressure.

at Hog Island Yards

Washington, Feb. 1. = The senate
commerce committee today set about
to find who is responsible for the Gin
ordinate waste of government money!
at the Hog Island shipyard.
To this end the committee was pre-
pairing to summon before it officials
Of the Emergency Fleet Corporation
which maintains an inspector at the
ward, to tell why the government had
not stopped the leak earlier.
Under the terms of the contract with
the American International Corpora
tion, through which the government is
building the yards. the government
had a right to take control if things
were not moving satisfactorily, R. J.
Buckley former counsel for the fleet
corporation told the committee.
The committee, curious to know
what interests are represented direct
" and indirectly in the American In
ternational Corporation. summoned Jos
eph P. Cotton, counsel for the fleet
corporation during the early stages of
the negotiations.

Beginning next Tuesday, all meat
shops in the city viii close at noon On
Tuesdays and remain closed until
Wednesday morning. They will also
close at clock on Saturday night.
This action is mutual and volun-
tary, on the part of the Salem meat
dealers and is in line of the efforts of
the Salem Commercial club and the
federal food administration campaign
for conservation Of food and effort.
F. W. Steusloff, of Steusloff Broth

this movement may be followed by
closing all day Tuesday. Salem butch

GrOcerS Must Obey
Conservation Rules

Grocers who ignore the new regula-
tions of the United States food admin
istration governing the sale of wheat
flour, will speedily find themselves IN
trouble, according to Assistant Federal
Food Administrator w. K. Newell
"Every retailer in Marion county
has had personal and full instructions
said Mr.. Steusloff, Marion county
chairman, and where it can be prov
en- that any retailer is selling wheat
flour in violation of the rules, such
retailers supply of flour will be i'm
mediately cut off, as the food admin
istration is authorized, in such cases,
to forbid the wholesalers from making
further sales to the retailer. With ev-
cry "a pound sack of wheat flour, ev-
cry retailer must sell pounds of sub
stitute, and this ratio Of three-and-one
must be rigidly adhered to in every
case, no matter how small the purchase
of flour. The list of substitutes speci-
fled in the regulations give the CON
sumer a wide choice, and the rule will
work no hardship on anyone. There is
no excuse for attempted evasion by
an yconsumer, ner for violation by the
retailer. Any merchant who breaks the
rules risks having his source of sup
ply shut off, which would automatic
aliv put him out of business as to the
buving and selling of flour.

TWO SENATE Terms
WAIT ON ELECTION
One Is Unexpired Term ol
Harry Lane and Other Is
Succeeding Long Term

AT the primary and general elections
this year, the people of Oregon will
have opportunity to vote for United
States senator to serve the unexpired
terms of the late Senator Harry Lane
and for a United States senator for
the regular six-year term, which begins
March 4. 1919.
This is according to an opinion given
by Attorney General Brown to Secre-
tary of State Olcott, who is now pre-
pairing to certify to the various county
clerks the names of the officers to be
filled by election this year.
The attorney general advises that
there must be on the election ballot
space for candidates for the short term
senatorship, which will begin immedi-
ately after the election in November
and end on the fourth of the following
March, as well as space for the long or
regular term senatorship.
Under this Interpretation of the law,
the appointment of Senator McNary to
fill the vacancy caused by the death of
Senator Lane will end in November
when the short term, which will be
filled by election, begins.
Attorney General Brown did not pass
on the point as to whether a person
may be a candidate for both terms, but
that question probably will have to be
answered later if any of the candidates
seek to file for both terms.
In his opinion, the attorney general
followed the precedent established
when Fred w. Mulkey was elected for
a short term senatorship in 1907 under
circumstances similar to those which
exist now.
Following the death Of Senator John
H. Mitchell, the governor appointed
John M. Gearin to fill the vacancy.
At the succeeding election Mulkey was
a candidate for Senator Mitchell s un-
expired term, while Jonathan Bourne,
Jr., and others were candidates for the
regular six-year term. Mulkey was
nominated for the short term and
Bourne was nominated for the long
term, and the following Legislature
elected both of them. This made it
necessary for Senator Gearin, who had
been appointed, to step aside when
Mulkey took office.
"I am perfectly aware that the sem
ate of the United States is the sole
and exclusive judge of the qualifica-
tions and elections of its own mem
bers," says the attorney general 3
opinion. ''I am also mindful of the
fact that it is possible that the nom
ination and election to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of the late Senator
Harry Lane, now being temporarily
filled by Senator McNary, may be an
empty honor, but this is not the con-
Germ of the election officers of the
state of Oregon. Our duty is to con
strue and apply the election law as we
find it.
81 know of no reason for following
different course in the pending cleo
ton than was pursued in 1906 and
1907, when a successor was elected,
and nominated, to Honorable John M.
Gearin for the purpose of FILLING a
vacancy caused by the death of Sen
ator Mitchell" f"

for More.

Sharon, Pa.-That the monsters Of

part Of Mercer county in prehistoric
ages is evidenced by the uncovering
OF monster grinder tooth and part
Of bone by workmen of the Besse-
mer & Lake Erie engaged in building
line through Otter Creek valley, two

find was made. Strict orders have
been issued to the workmen to be
on the lookout for more fragments OF
teeth or bones.
