RENO HAS A MAIN. SALES
STATION OF STANDARD
OIL COMPANY

Reno is to be made a main sales
station of the Standard Oil con-
pany! The largely increased sales of
the company's products there has
brought about the decision of the
company to carve out new territory
to be under the jurisdiction of an
independent district sales manager.
Previously Reno has been served
from Sacramento.
This means that all the terri
tory surrounding Reno will have
increased and more efficient scrv-
ice than was possible before. 1t is
a distinct advantage and will be
greatly appreciated by every user
of Standard Oil products.
j. r. Douglas has been appointed
district sales manager for the new
station, his wide experience with
the Standard Oil company well fit
ting him for his new position. Fer
the last six years Douglas has been
assistant QlStTlcI SAFES mdldScT IOT
the Standard Oil company at Oak
land. and later at Fresno.
The present Reno plant will be
enlarged as soon as weather condi-
tions permit in order to take care
of the greatly increased business of
the Standard Oil company. Five
new storage tanks, having a COM
ibned capacity of 100000 gallons,
will be built for the storage of
Red Crown gasoline, Pearl oil and
distillate. A large new brick Of
flee building, a garage. and boiler
and heatern house will also be
erected.
The decision of the Standard Oil
company to make Reno a new main
station is looked upon as a recog-
milton of the assured growth and
prosperity of the district which will
be served.

So many of them. however. de-
veloped into robber bands COM
posed of men in marine uniforms
who never served in the marine
service that of late the average
German civilian has begun to look
upon any man in a marine uniform
as a probable thief.
During the past few weeks the
status of the marine units has been
clearing up and from information
gathered by the Third Army Off
GERS it is now possible to give a
general idea of the marine units. In
an article in the summary of in
telligence issued by the Third Army
one of the American officers says:
1.-The marine units of S~partacist
or doubtful leanings may be consid-
cred first. Most important of these
is the volksmarine division which
went over to the Spartacists in the
January and March troubles in Ber-
lin, but has now been suppressed in
Berlin. However, it has a branch
in Braunschweig of clearly Spar
tacist purposes. Many who were
prominent in the dissolved unit in
Berlin are now in this unit, which

CANADA CAMPAIGNING
FOR FOREIGN TRADE

Canada is operating in the for
eign field through a we'll organized
system of trade commissioners. This
has been supplemented by a trade
mission in London and a branch
mission in Paris. This machinery is
designed to get into close and quick
touch with European necessities
with a view to placing Canada'5
natural and industrial resources at
the service of the countries yer
here for reconstruction. The re-
suits thus far achieved have given
rise to great optimism in regard to
Canada's immediate future in trade.
A large part of Canada's war
time industries are said to be con-
vertible for peace-time manufac-
turers. Canada's war industries
were, as a matter of fact, really an
organization of her peace facilities.
Sir George Foster estimates that the
losses which will be sustained in the
conversion will be a minimum.
Coupled with the quick return to
peace conditions industrially has
been the successful working out of
the rehabilitation scheme for the
troops. These men are rapidly be-
ing absorbed into their old Occupa-
tions. All the Canadian troops re-
naming on this side will be back
home in about two months, it is
stated, ready to take up their pre-
wal work.

ALASKA TO PRODUCE
PEBBLES FOR MILLS
MATERIAL FOR GRINDING NOW
COMES FROM STATE
OF ILLINOIS

JUNEAU, Alaska, May 14.-For
the production of gold ore from
quartz, few persons realize that
pebbles are used, and that these
pebbles in the past have been
brought all the way from Illinois by
rail to Seattle and then by boat TIC
Juneau.
The pebbles are required for
grinding the ore as it ZONES from
the crushers of the quartz mill. AT
one time an Alaskan mining conf
pan got it's pebbles in Norway, the
ore-grinding process requiring II
very hard pebble. Now, however, a
contract has been given to a Juneau
man to furnish the company with
25 tons of pebbles not less than
two and one inches indiameter and
not over four inches. The con-
tractor intends to bring the pebbles
from Lituya Bay. To get them out
it will be necessary to constrpct a
12-mile road.
The Lituya pebbles have been
used before at the Chickagoff mills
and their flint-like qualities are
said to have made them very sat
isfactory. Should they meet the re-
quirements operators of this district
believe a new and unique business
of dealing in pebbles may be de-
veloped in Alaska.

PARIS, May Canada is in the
midst of an energetic campaign for
foreign trade which, from results
thus far achieved, bids fair shortly
to push her peace-time exports up
to unprecedented figures. On arm
fistice day Canada's foreign COM
merce, outside of that in war ma
terials, was virtually at a stand
still, because of lack of shipping ia
cilities and the conditions imposed
by war. Today, five months later,
the volume of her peace-time trade
is said to be equal to that before
the war. and the receipts to be
greater. Canada's exports in 1914
were valued at approximately $780,
100000.
AS Sir George Foster, Canadian
minister of trade and commerce,
who is in Paris, pointed out to the
correspondent of the Associated
Press, the foreign field for Cana
dian activities is virtually without
limit. The difficulty which is being
encountered is the inability of Euro
pean countries to pay for goods, al
though they are anxious to get
them. Canada already has granted
credits of $25 900 each to Bel
GUM, Greece, Rumania and France,
making a total of $1,000 600 900.
Other credits are under discussion.
Large advances also have been made
to the mother country to enable her
to pay for products for herself and
her allies.

HULL. England. May 9.-For-
tunes from fish are being piled up
by shippers operating out of Hull.
All through the war their profits
we're so tremendous that they now
constitute a kind of local plutoc-
racy. They have town houses and
country houses and garages filled
with motor cars.
There are now about 90 shippers
working their vessels out of this
port. The majority are rough sail
ors, with a rule-of-thumb knowl-
edge of navigation. and curious
ideas about the best way to spend
their huge earnings.
For several years many of them
have been netting from $4,000 to
$4,000 annually. One is said to
have averaged close on to 100000.
A record is held by the skipper
of a trawler which last fall made
the Iceland voyage twice within
six weeks, returning from the first
trip with a little less than 800, 900
worth of fish, and from the second
with a little more than that amount.
The shippers net profit from the
two trips was something like $780,
600. The second voyage lasted only
II days.
Owners of the fishing craft, who
take none of the risks the shippers
face, make even nor money. A
boat which hardly would have been
thought worth sending to e be-

MARINE UNITS FACTORS IN GERMAN POLITICS

appear to be determination of the
present Spartacist control of Braun
schweig. At least two home guard
units of marines are known, n at
Munich and one at Frankfurt on
Main. Neither of these has been
fairly tried, but both are unques-
tionably of strong Spartacist lean
ings.
Supporting Minister of War
Noske and the present government
are several marine units of ex-
cellent morale, which appear all or
nearly all to be in the process OF
uniting at the present time, under
control of General o Lettow-vor-
beck, the German commander who
returned from Africa in March.
"Most important Of these is the
Iron Marine Brigade or Marine
Brigade Rohden, under Colonel Won
Rohden. This was organized in Kiel,
differed exclusively by officers of
at least Is years service. 1t sup
pressed disorders early this year
in Bremen, Cuxhaven,. Wilhelms-
haven and Emden, and had a large
part in the restoration of order in

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY
OF OCCUPATION. May s.-In the
opinion of American army officers
who follow day by day the process
of rehabilitation and readjustment
of enemy forces it appears likely
hat General Won Lettow-vorbeck,
the German commander who re-
turned to Germany in March from
Africa. is rapidly uniting under his
command all the loyal marine units.
Writing in the summary of intel
l;gence of the United States army OF
recent late one of the American ex-
rcrts who specializes upon the
movements of all German armed
forces, says: "Such a division
(marines) may be expected to be
n of the most powerful instru-
ments of the present government
and might even be a reactionary
power"
Owing to the popular appreciation
Of the services of the marines dur
ing the war and to the initiation OF
the revolution last November by
marines, numerous marine volun-
teer units have appeared in Ger

FISHERMEN
MAKE HUGE PROFITS

fore the war can be counted on now
to bring in net profits at the rate
of o than 100000 a year. Wild
speculations are going IN in traw-
lers, the boats changing hands at ri
diculous prices.
1t is a gamble against time, for
when the trawlers now engaged in
mine sweeping are released from
that work the fishing fleet here will
be tripled and fish profits will drop
accordingly.

POLICEMAN LOST 65 POUNDS THRU STOMACH TROUBLE
Flat on His Back and Could Not Get Up-Unable to Do His Work for Three Years.

My stomach and kidneys gave me the worst kind of trouble for three years" says c. W. Walton, polio of- ficer, of 2525 18th St., Ensley, Alabama. T was able to work only two months in three years. Finally I got down on my back in bed and could not move without the greatest exertion. My kid- neys were continually out of order. There was peculiar dead feeling in my stomach and bowels and I lost 65 pounds. I was under the care of doc tors and took treatments and medi- cines. I commenced to take Sulferro- Sol and took one bottle. Before I got through with it began to improve and improved right along. I kept taking it until I was as well as ever. I work regularly every day, have regainei most of my weight and feel fine all the time. The pains in my kidneys and back have ceased and my stomach and bowels are usually normal If ever they feel bit dull and sluggish, I take a dose or two of Sulferro- Sol and it fixes me up. I have never taken any med icine from any doctor since l first be- gan using Sulferro-Sol. Several of ny frierds have used it upon my recom- mendation and they have thanked ne for telling them about it."

Alabama sOpportunity
Fly MRS. G. II. MATHIS

The greatest opportunity is open to Alabama now that has been pre- sented tS the state. Will our legislature be- wise and good enough to grasp it? The Federal aid offered (dollar for dol lar) for vocational education and good roads is the greatest chance we ever had to secure half the cost of both from the government
 Certainly we should devise means to take care of our half and thereby se- cure an incalculable good to all of our people. Two things will hold any state down. one is ignorance and inefficiency, and the other is bad roads. Who wants to move into the greatest illiteracy section of the United States? Who most impossible a good part of the year? The rural district suffers most from these things but the town folks have the say.
 These are the things that prevent rapid development in Alabama.
 There are certainly many other good things that we need We can't get everything so let us try to get the two most important at this time. If the automobile tax is directed to good trunk line of roads for twenty-one years it will pay for the good main roads entirely. The bond issue would build the roads and the running tax would pay the bonds, interest, and upkeep. Certainly that looks good and all right Let us try it and get started.
 Our schools can't teach vocational educational for want of equipment and proper instruction but the government will go half on 1t if we will go the other half, Can we not think out a way to help our own blessed boys and girls that much? Certainly we can and We simply must do 1t. Our state superintendent of education, Mir. Dowell is doing all he can to secure the neces- sary funds but he needs our help from all the different counties We have put good man in office, now let's stand to him and get the benefit for the rising generations of Alabama for a better chance in life than we and our fathers had. Walker county has made it's own experiment in vocational train ing especially along the line of agri- culture and has demonstrated the plan. The increase in wealth production is enormous and will nav the cost If only one unit of fortv-fivA minutes a day be added to the regular school work the children can be taught such use of tools and such knowledge of profitable farming as to make them able citizens and independent.
