FIRE

Last Thursday afternoon the alarm
of fire was pealed out from the Farm
ers elevator and the town turned out
in time to see only a smoke after the
fire had been controlled by E. w.
Hill and Frank Baumgardtner. The
fire started from the explosion of a
torch which was used to heat the
hot head on the engine. Mr.. Baum
gardiner received some severe burns
on the hand and fingers but he got
off lucky as he could have been burned
to death just as easy had the gas
struck his clothing.
The fresh dirt which had been
hauled to the grade was the only
means of saving the elevator and it
just SO happened that Mr.. Hill had
just come in with a load of corn and
helped heave dirt on the fire. The
interior of the engine room was bad

EX-SERVICE MEN FREE TO
CHOOSE FORM OF INSURANCE

Announcement is made by Director
X. G.. Cholmeley-Jones Of the Bureau
of War Risk Insurance that it is not
the policy of the bureau to attempt to
dissuade ex-service men and women
from purchasing any particular form
Of Government Converted Policy for
which they show preference.
Since all forms of insurance con.
tracts especially those which. will
be isued by the government, are based
on actuarial principles, they are des..
ignated according to the amount OF
premium charged to get the full value
OF the money received.
For instance, while the endowment
policy is more expensive from an IN.
surance point of view, If the insured
lives to the end of the endowment per-
iod. it is one Of the cheapest forms OF
insurance, and stated preference for
this policy therefore should not be
discouraged.
II is the position of the bureau that
il is perfectly all right to accompany
an explanation of the various policies
with all necessary information, but
advice as to selection should be given
only where it is specifically sought.
Usually the selection is dependent up
on the individual, who should be en-
couraged to make his own choice and
to follow his own desires. All OF the
policies are good.

Mastodon Mine Looks Good

+. II. Parry and p N. Wilkinson
are back from the Mastodon mine in
the Goldstrike district Of Washington
county, where they have been working
for some weeks with Charlie Bechtol
in the development Of the property
by the sinking of shaft to the 100
foot level, from whence drift will be
run to tap the vein. The ore follows
an incline and the shaft is being run
straight down, but in cutting through
the vein some three or four tons OF
shipping ore, which carries values OF
over $3.50 per ton were removed.
The boys think they have a big
bonanza in the Mastodon and one thai
is certain to sooner or later put them
all on easy street.

RECLAMATION OF
COLORADO BASIN

This is sufficient power for the cleo.
IRRIGATION of the Santa Fe, Southern
Pacific and Salt Lake Railroads when
il is installed and at the same time
will be able to furnish the necessary
power for lighting and industrial pro
duction in this region.
Working toward the same end
which is that of tying in all of the
productive areas under this reclama-
ton scheme with highway connections
the California and Nevada State High
way Commissions are now working
out a plan which will reduce mile
age between Los Angeles and Los
Vegas by from so to 10 miles. This
shortening includes new construction
in both states, two routes being under
consideration at the present time. The
first is from Los Vegas to Good
Springs, Silver Lake and connecting
with the National Old Trails at Bar
stow. The second route proposed lies
from Las Vegas to Good Springs, Kel-
so and Klondyke where it joins the
National Old Trails.
Imperial Valley Highway
lnt ldSb HIN III tnlS fodu SySIchi
now in the course Of construction in
cludes the Imperial Valley plan Of
highway construction for which bonds
have been voted and which calls for
road from Palo Verde in the Blythe
Valley to INLAND.
In order to gain some idea of the
scope of this Colorado Basin project,
it may be noted that 4,150,000 acres
of irrigable land will come under cul-
tivation.
1t is interesting to note that half
of the aggregate acreage in this basin
is climatically and geographically adj
apted to the culture of long staple
cotton which in turn absolutely as
sures that Los Angeles will within
ten years time be the greatest manu-
featuring center Of cotton goods such
as tire febrics, dirigibles, balloon and
plain cloth.
The crux of the situation regarding
the feature of Los Angeles as the
manufacturing center of these high
grade tensile cloths is founded on the
isolation Of the Colorado River Valley
and the resultant ability of cotton
growers in these districts to grow
long staple cotton solely and to ex-
clude short staple which always
clashes in growth with the long staple
to the detriment of the latter plant.

surprise awaited them. In the dining
room the first surprise was in being
met by enough men to go around as
partners and after matching for cou-
Piles a dainty buffet luncheon was
served and thoroughly enjoyed by ev-
eryone. The ladies who took this
class are determined not forget very
soon the valuable information receiv-

and as consequence are having some
very enjoyable times besides keeping
in practice. After lunch the party
went upstairs to the auditorium and
finished the evening in dancing.

The production of oil in the United
States is one of the most important
problems before industrial America
today. We are living in an oil age.
Today oil has become the premier mo-
tive power.
The number and variety OF uses
of petroleum and it's products are
continually increasing but even more
striking is our dependence upon few
of the products of the oil refinery
notably gasoline, kerosene, the many
types of lubricating oil and fuel oil,
not to mention some 300 other odd
products Of petroleum.
With more than six million pleasure
vehicles operating in the ". s. alone,
we have an estimated consumption OF
100 100000 gallons a year Of high
grade lubricating oil, where 20 years
ago the demand for this purpose was
practically nothing.
In the face of this remarkable in
creased demand for petroleum prod
ucts it is remarkable that their costs
have held so low. With the rapidly
increased cost of producing crude oil
unless new fields are soon discovered
we may expect constantly advanc-
ing price for gasoline and other pet
roleum products.
