1HE SUPPLY OF OIL.

Again We are gravely warned that
the United States is about to run
out of Gil. The huge strides in pro
duction that have been made during
the past " years is using up our
reserves TO such a degree that be-
fore long a grave condition will be
brought about in the industrial
world. This is on the authority Of
George Otis Smith, director of the
U. S. Geological Survey, and an au-
thority in the oil world.
Also we daily read extracts from
speeches by other authorities telling
as TO go TO foreign lands. The Wolf
man review warns us of British con-
troll in other lands and urges imme-
date and rapid development there,
using as an argument the statement
that soon we will be without oil at
home.
We admit that there is a lot of
truth in these statements and that at
the present time our production does
not keep up with out demand, max
ing IL necessary for the United States
10 draw upon Mexico for the balance.
We also admit that production in the
last two years has been phenomenal.
But We do not admit that the fig
ures written so neatly in the geo.
logical reports in regard TO how much
oil we have under the surface of this
country are correct. The geologist
has his place in the oil industry and
IL is an important one. But we are
inclined to believe more in the fol-
lowing statement, taken from the
columns of one of the larger daily
papers in the oil region:
1T is an easy matter for the geo.
logical survey to determine the ra-
ito of supply and demand in the
United States. But until the geolog-
ical survey can tell us where to find
oil. which il %assuredly cannot do at
present, We shall view with consid-
cradle reserve the statements of that
organization about the total supplies
of unmined petroleum under the
United States. Oil has ben found al
most everywhere, when there have
been determined ~searchers. Is it not
within the bounds of possibility that
there are great oceans OF oil still n
tapped under the soil OF this coun-
try? There is great need Of further
exploration and the earnest wildcat
ter Is one of thhe most valuable eco
nomic servants of industrial America.
Most residents of the oil regions are
optimistic enough to believe h a
validating will be rewarded In the
future in about the anne proportion
as il has been in the past. When the
geological survey can say truly, Here
YOU will find OIL and Here you will
find oil, and Here you will not find
OIL W Q shall be inclined to take the
estimates of that body more serious
ly."
There is no doubt but what the
work of the geologist has been OF in
estimable value In the past history OF
the oil industry. But he has to go

SEA SERPENT Is SEEN
SINCE NEVADA WENT DRY

Beautiful Walker lake, so some of
the Indians say, has a sea serpent.
Dick Cowl states that there is one,
but that he has not sen it for some
years. 1t is the easiest seen in the
early morning, moving along the
west shore, ear the route Of the
new highway and where it is said
the lake is bottomless and it is said
that the serpent was seen making its
way under the rocks, probably to-
ward some cavern under the noun
tains. 1t was described as having a
head like a big dog and a body
maybe fifty feet long" While your
correspondent is not addicted to
seeing things" he has noticed of
early mornings a simmer of the
water along the border mentioned.
Possibly it is the serpent up bright
and early doing the shimmy. Almost
anything is possible since the
country went dry.-Mason Valley

other indications that he can find.
No n knows what is under the sur
face. The great strikes in Louisiana
are an eloquent truth of this. But
the conditions that brought about oil
in that region during the early his
tory of the world must have assured
ly existed in all the other states on
the prehistoric gulf. There is only
one sure way to find oil, a humorist
once remarked. and that is to drill
into some other fellows pipeline.
There is also but one sure way to
find out the absence of oil and that
is to drill a dry hole. Until that is
done the fact that there might be
oil there will always be present and
must be reckoned with in any set OF
calculations, no matter who makes
them.-The Oil Industry.

UTAH APPLE CROP THIS
YEAR REOoRDBREAKER

Utah's apple crop is estimated by
the state fruit experiment station Of
Missouri at Mountain Grove, Mo-,
which is authority ON the apple in
dustry Of the country, at eight hun
bred and forty-three thousand boxes
this year, an increase over last year
of close TO five hundred thousand
boxes. Utah county, one of the im-
portant apple counties in the state,
is, according to the figures, estimated
a full crop The quality, color and
size of the fruit all over the state IS
said TO be at its best.
The estimated production in the
state on September 18th was two
hundred and eighty-one thousand bar
rels, while the bureau of crop esti-
mates gives a final estimate on the
1919 crop of 12l, 900 barrels, so that
the estimate for 1920 is for a tremend-
ous crop. A barrel is approximately
two and a half boxes.
TIE total apple crop Of the United
States is estimated for 1920 at 81
647 900 barrels, compared with 26,,
1913, 900 barrels in 1919, or more thar

EXPRESS COMPANIES OUT
FOR STILL MORE MONEY

Upon being advised of the recent
decision of the interstate commerce
commission granting the American
Railway Express company a raise in
rates of 1872 per cent instead of 1914
per cent, as was expected, Utah rep
resentatives of the company appear
ed before the Utah state public utili-
ties commission last Saturday asking
that body 10 grant them a supplement
tai hearing so that they may ask an
additional per cent increase in rates
in this state, thus taking full advant-
age of the advance granted by the in
terstate body.
This case was heard recently and is
under advisement by the state COM
mission The representatives argued
at the first hearing that they needed
1919 per cent raise TO pay added cost,
being represented here by attorneys
from national headquarters. The Utah
representatives said they wished to
file notice of the increase granted
them before the local commission had
acted, if possible, in order TO obtain
a decree and thus save duplicate work,
