for Mrs. M. Daugherty of this city
in the Springfield circuit court, when
Judge Kirby directed that her daugh-

The girl testified that she wanted to
go with her mother, but added that
she had received excellent treatment
while in the McNabb family. The
girl is II years old.

Regular Habits,
Hard Work, Good
Food Aid Longevity

Doniphan, Mo-, Nov. 25.-Regular
habits, plenty of wholesome food and
lot of hard work is the secret of the
longevity of the members of Linzy
Dudley's family near here, one OF
the most remarkable in this section
of the state. They reside three miles
southeast of Doniphan and have lived
on the same farm for almost three
quarters of a century.
The family consists of Dudley, his
wife and Mrs. Dudley's sister. Mrs.
BlJah Wright, who are respectively
81, 81 and 83 years old, a total of
252 years. Mr.. and Mrs. Dudley have
been married GO years and have had
II children, six of whom are living

on which he is now living he could
shoot squirrels and wild turkeys
from the doorway of his kitchen and

through the woods getting mess Of
meat for meal. He used a muzzle-
loading rifle and killed lot of game
in sight of his house.
His nearest neighbor was miles
away, yet the neighborly spirit was
fostered more than in the present
day. Dudley was present when the
original town of Doniphan was plat
ted by the early county surveyors
and he watched them as they located
the site of the present courthouse
square.

SaWmill Workers
Get 81 Pct. More
Than in 1913

New Orleans, La, Nov. 25.-Hour-
ly wages of sawmill employees are
"a per cent higher in 1919 than in
1913, according to statement just
issued by the bureau of labor Stats
tics Of the United States department
Of labor, a copy of which was receiv-
ed here today by the Southern Pine
association.
It is further shown that the cost of
living in the United States increased
70 per cent between 1918 and the
spring of 1919. The estimate of
change in cost of living was taken
from the October, 1919, issue of the
Monthly Labor Review, which showed
these figures from July, 1914, to
June 1919. A subsequent estimate
was made extending the comparison
back to the year 1913
The figures given as to wages for
the years prior to 1919 are based on
reports that have been published by
the bureau. Those for 1919 are the
result of comprehensive industrial
survey made within the last year.
This survey covered representative
establishments in % industries.

ers were satisfied with Is cents a
hundred pounds.
Many pickers are able to gather
400 to 500 pounds of cotton a day,
and it is not unusual for children
who are barely in their teens to pick
an average of 800 pounds day Not
only are farmers paying record
breaking prices, but they are scour-
ing the state for men. women and
children to do the work. Transpoc-
tation of the pickers to and from the
farms is paid and in some cases they
are given board by the planters.
Whites Go to Fields.
In former times it was considered
beneath the dignity of white per-
son to pick cotton. That work was
left to negroes and Mexicans. But
this year, on account of the alluring
compensation and the shortage of la
Dor, thousands of white families may
be seen in the fields plucking the
fleecy staple. With the labor not
available it will be two or three
months before all the crop is harvest
ed. This is particularly true of the
western part of the state, where
an extraordinary heavy yield was
obtained, and where labor normally
is scarce.

Big Sale of Leases
in Camden District
in Last Few DAYS

Camden, Ark, Nov. 25.-There has
been more activity in the oil and gas
leasing business here within the past
two weeks than at any time previous.
reports were rife some days ago that
strong flow of gas had been I'M
covered in the Hunter we'll being
drilled in the southern part of the
county, and that there was parti-
cularly good prospect for oil. This
caused the sale of a goodly number
OF leases in that section at prices
considerably beyond anything asked
heretofore, and had a stimulating
effect on trading in all parts of the
county. Upon being tested the gas
proved to be dry, however, and the
idea OF making an immediate break
INTO oil sand was given up. Drilling,
which was interfered with for several
days by high water has been resum-
ed. The we'll is now about 140O feet
deep.
Drilling has been resumed also at
the Humphreys we'll. two miles south
OF Chichester, which is now about g.
400 feet. This we'll had been idle for
several weeks, owing to breakage in
machinery, and a lay-off was taken
until proper repairs could be made.
These were completed last week, and
on Sunday the drill was again set to
work. It is the intention of the own
ers OF this we'll to make thorough
test if it is necessary to go 1000 feet
to do it.
The Straughan we'll, southeast oil
Chichester, has serious fishing job
at 3,O81 feet. The drill got fasten-
ed at the bottom of the hole, and
the drill stem became separated from
1t. The stem in turn stuck two hun.
dred feet from the bottom, and is
being taken out in sections. It seems
probable that the bit will have to be
sidetracked when drilling is resumed.
This we'll will also be carried down
1000 feet unless pay is found before
that depth is reached.
Just before stoppage of drilling at
the Straughan well very thick stra-
tum of black lime intermixed with
chalk had been penetrated. The posi-
ton of this, compared with the same
stratum as found in Louisiana fields,
gives assurance of finding the oil
bearing sands at depth of from g.
500 to $3.50 and biologists who have
read the log Of the well are agreed
that it will be encountered.
In Union county, adjoining this
county (Ouachita) on the south, one
well is being drilled and contracts
have been entered into for drilling 9

even more active there than here

words the loss from tuberculosis in

were registered with the board of
health. The 1920 sales will open on
December in practically every city
and town in the country and will
continue for 10 days. More than
CSC, 100000 seals will be sold.
The city's economic loss, according
to DR.. Biggs, is greater from tuber-
culosis than from any other disease
for the very reason that larger per-
centage of workers are the victims.
Most of the victims are between
the ages of Is and so, although there
is a great loss of life among children
as young as five years. The New
Yorker, however, who has tubercu-
losis, dies at the average age of thir-
ty-five, losing twenty-four ye>rs
which, in the event of good health,
would be his to live. Seventeen of
these years, DR.. Biggs asserts would
