MADE THEIR OWN OIL WELL
How Two Small Boys Reaped Rich
Reward for the Exercise Of
Little Ingenuity.

Two barefoot boys, respectively
eleven and twelve years of age, earned
forty-five hundred dollars in one weeR,
according to the Oil Weekly of Dallas.
Texas, by combining thrift and ingenu-
ity in telling manner. Much oil was
going to waste in the Northwest
Burkburnett oil field because the pipe
lines were inadequate, when the boys,
who are brothers, saw crude oil from a
broken pipe running down small
ravine. Hitching donkey to rattle
trap spring wagon, they began to haul
dirt to dam the ravine and succeeded
after much hard work in collecting a
great quantity Of oil.
The owner appeared on the scene
about that time, and he admired the
pluck Of the youngsters. He did not
claim the oil outright, although it had
been his, but offered the youngsters
one dollar and half barrel salvage
for 1t. The youngsters accepted his
offer and. perching themselves on their
new dam with stubs Of pencils, check
ed out the oil as 1t was hauled away.
1t tailed exactly three thousand bar
rels, and the boys got their money.

Fewer Figs Reach Market.

The fig yield of the vilayet of Alden
has arisen from approximately 1900
tons raised on 10000 acres of land
about thirty years ago to about $4,000
tons raised on $4,000 acres. However,
this advance in supply has not kept
pace with the demand, and prices of
figs have steadily risen. The big pro-
ducing areas are, under normal condi-
lions. exclusively tapped by the Otto
man (Aiden) Railway company's sys-
tenn. The orchards, located mainly in
the Meander valley, are owned chiefly
by Turks. The best figs are produced
in the Inovassi and Ortaxe districts.
The product is marketed in Smyrna,
where the figs are packed in accord
ance with the demand of the region to
which the figs are exported. Blight,
neglected fertilization and lack of COM
munication have cut down this seasons
export output to about 10000 tons.
Exports went to the United States
(about 1000 tons) the United Kingdom
$500 tons), and. European entente
countries (about 1000 tons).

dent; Mrs. Eric Lehsten, the coming

Mcdowell and the Longfellow fund
under the care of the New Jersey State

Miss NJ. G. Winterburn was elected
to the office of treasurer of the club.
as this office was still open since the
election of officers.
A good hour was then devoted to the
Current Events, in charge of Mrs.
Hoke, who began by mentioning the
recent action of the governor of Ken
lucky, her home state, in which law
was passed making it a misdemeanor
to criticize actions of the government
MRS. Hoke in expressing her disap-
prevail of this measure, threw the mat
ter open for discussion and the men,
bers interestedly discussed this and
other statements brought up by the
speaker, such as the study of women
ON political subjects, the present unrest
and its sources and she advised wom-
en- to read more of the politics and
the finances in the papers.
The next meeting of the club will
be in June, and is the social and rec
reatiOnal meeting of the members and
their friends as it takes the form of
picnic, which is to be held at the
home of Mrs. Ansell, and the only
business is the reports of the conven-
ton delegates and the annual ones of
the club.

Migration From Susquehanna Flats in

Port Deposit, Md.-The spring mi

and ducks getting away for their
summer quarters and breeding places

chosen for departmental lasted IN
til almost daylight the next morning,
when probably every migratory fowl
quit Its winter quarters in the Sus-
quehanna and the Chesapeake.
1t was interesting to note the or
derby precedence of the wild birds. AS
if on a signal the geese were the first
to rise out of the water, nearly all at
the same moment, from all sections of
the upper bay reaches here-and after
wheeling in circles two OF three times
at height Of GO or more feet, made
spiral-like climb, and on reaching
an altitude of 600 feet, broke into lit
tie groups and, spreading out In v
shape, followed their leaders and were
soon lost to view.

he ruled correctly when he ordered q

about As per cent of their capacity.
One published estimate of the stocks
of -four carried by bakers in Chica-
go indicates that these are only one
half of, the stocks usually carried.
+ The wheat market has been I'M
settled for some time and this con-
dition may continue. If European
countries increase their purchases
of grain in this country, the effect
on the market naturally will be a
tendency to greater strength, while
the general downward trend Of
prices, and the fact that the price
of wheat is still above the pre-war
price, tend to work in the opposite
direction. The trade is watching
crop conditions in Argentine and
Australia closely, as changes in
those countries affect the market in
the United States.

shortage has been the expense of
feed. Since there is an adjustment
in feed prices, it will be an easier
problem to carry work-stock
through the winter of 1920-21.
Wartime economy taught us one
valuable lesson in caring for work.
stock. That lesson is to make a
larger use of grasses and hays. In
other words, it is to feed the horse
or the mule more roughage and less
concentrates. This kind of feeding
may keep work-stock from carrying
extra flesh. but even this is not so
Objectionable in the animals that
are to remain on the farm.
For this winter the problem of
feeding horses has been largely
solved by the reduction in the price
of corn. Corn at $3.50 or so per
bushel makes its use very expensive
in maintaining horses; but at rs
cents or even 81, the farmer can af-
ford to make a more liberal use of
it,
The horse not at work requires
much less grain than when he is in
the collar. Many farm horses and
mules must be carried from one
work season to another, and the
wise plan is to carry them on the
least expensive ration. Good bright
straw or corn stover can take the
place of one-half to three-fourths of
the hay consumed. For example, a
horse weighing 1000 pounds will
require 10 pounds of shelled corn
and IA pounds of timothy hay per
day when at hard work. Or he will
require 10 pounds of corn and 10
pounds of alfalfa per day. The
8 or 10 pounds of alfalfa hay, with
unlimited straw and no grain. Glow
err. 9 to IL pounds, can be substitute
ed for the alfalfa; while If only
timothy hay is available, to 4
pounds Of grain should be given.
The use of the grain with the timo-
thy is because II is not SO rich in
protein as the alfalfa or the clover.
Again. ii only corn slower and straw
are to be obtained. some grain sup
plement up to 5-pounds a7day should
be added.

repellants. If this is used be sure
and look at them during heavy
snow in the winter to make safe
that they are properly placed and
that the rabbits are not able to get
to the trunk to damage them. AZ
ter the trees have been peeled there
are various things that can be done
to help seal the wound. Cover the
injury with moss and tie 1t with
gunny sack is one of the best. In
case the entire trunk has been peel
ed SO as to girdle the tree, it is very
doubtful if 1t will be possible to
save it. 1t is much better to protect
the trees from injury at first than to
try to heal the wound after it has
been injured.

Wheat

The importance of wheat makes
the conditions of the wheat market
of interest to farmers generally. The
drop in the price of wheat which has
taken place is well known to every
one. The all absorbing question at
present relates to what the future
has in store and the opinions which
are expressed are many and varied.
The preliminary estimate of
wheat production for 1920 is $780,
$4,000 bushels. The December,
1919. estimate was 940,9S7.000 bu-
shells, and the average for the Ave
years 1914-191S was S22,246,0 900
bushels. While this years estimates
indicate a crop somewhat smaller
than the average of recent years, an
unusually large carry-over from last
year has resulted in a supply which
is somewhat above the average.
The ability Of European countries
to take our exportable surplus is an
important factor. This year It is
not SO much a question of the
amount Europe can use as 1t is her
ability to pay. Thus, the Market
Reporter of November 13 says.
statistics may show how much
wheat the European countries
should import this year, but the
weakness OF exchange tells that
their importations will be limited
to- what they can pay for rather
than to what they can eat"
