USED EARTH AS RESERvc..
RESPONSIVENESS Displayed by Ameri-
can Engineer Enabled Him to
Complete Big Job Successfully.

A fine example Of the resourceful-
ness of the modern engineer is the
use OF the earth itself as the storage
reservoir for large supply of COM
pressed air. In the account gwen to
the American Institute of Mining
and Metallurgical Engineers, n.
Knapp states that he required 9
compressed air supply for working
pumps raising oil and for blowing
out the oil directly. Connecting an
exhausted oil we'll to the compressors,
he had for seven years successfully
used the porous sand at the bottom
Is the reservoir. Two compressors,
run "a hours daily by 200 horse
power gas engine, stored the air, and
the volume Of the stored supply was
large enough that the pressure was
not materially affected by withdraw
ing for short periods many times the
capacity Of the compressors, or by
compression when no air was being
used. The original pressure of the
gas-charged sand was sos pounds,
giving a flow Of gas from the open
well Of about 100000 cubic feet in
"a hours. Before the well was aban-
doned as exhausted, the gas had been
used down to rock pressure of l16
pounds, the production was small,
and the gas was wet and unsatisfac-
tory. In few months the COM
pressors developed an air pressure Of
200 pounds, the water trouble disap-
pesring. The layer Of porous gas
sand is at depth Of 500 feet, un-
derlying oil sand, and it appears to
b not more than Z feet thick, or to
extend over more than 20 or Is

farmers and other business men
say that farming is the most
independent life one can live.
However Mr.. Farmer has found

scared at when we see where
the dairymen or the tobacco
men have come to some kind of
terms that will mean good to
their line. In fact have you not
noticed that when a number of
men want to do something big
they get together? The school
teachers have their associations.
the doctors meet for the ex-
change of ideas and protection,
and even the ministers are feel
ing that they can be brethren
though they may not be of the
same creed. The spirit Of the
age is the get-to-gether spirit.
Should not one business man
or professional man recognize
some kind of ethical code to
guide him in his attitude to-
ward his competitor? We be-
lieve that the spirit of this time
will bring all men to consider
that the other man has a right

THRIFT WEEK

government asks to have cele-
brated next week should not be
flippantly passed by as ordinary

PARENT.TEACHER
ASSOCIATION MEETS

The bi-monthly meeting Of
the Parent-Teachers associa-
tion was held at the school
house on Friday afternoon, Jan.
9th Even though the weather
was inclement there was a good
crowd present. A short pro-
gram was rendered by the first
grade followed by most inter-
esting and enlightening lecture
by Mrs. Gordon. Her subject
was "Why. What and How of
the p. T A" and when she
had finished her entire audience
felt like turning militant. going
forth and demanding. not wo-
mems but children's rights.
A motion was made by Rev.
Gordon and seconded. that a SIS
prize be offered for the best
competitive essay on THE His
tory Of the Fly" Only High
School pupils are eligible TO en-.
ter this contest.
Ways and means for in
creasing the school library were
discussed as well as other plans
for bettering school conditions.

hard feelings? Let's all get to-
gether, what do YOU say?

Farmers who are considering
the possibility of cooperative
marketing associations will do
well to study the methods and
results of associations that
have been successfully conduct
ed. Many such organizations
have proven failures because
their methods were not right.
One Of the best examples is
the California Fruit Growers
Exchange which has had %
years successful experience
When the association started in
the retailers margin for hand
ling these highly perishable
fruits was figured at 800 of
the consumers dollar. The Or
dinary margin for retailing
such fruits is still estimated at
80 to 500. But this associa-
tion gets by with allowing the
retailer only 1890 for service,
expenses, profits and spoilage of
product.
1t accomplishes this result by
eliminating speculation, and de-
livering goods direct to whole
sale trade in the market where
the stuff is consumed.
The exchange believes that
when an association needs cap
ital, it should be obtained not
by stock subscription blt by
assessing the stockholders an
amount proportional with their
shipments. This provides a
strictly democratic form of Or
ganiation.
The most vital policy is to
have the product graded, han
died and packed under standard
regulations, and sold under an
association trade mark, each To-
cality retaining its own local
brand if desired. This enables
the product to build up a rep
utation as a standard and mer-
itorious article. 1t is only by
maintaining standard quality
that a reputation can be at
tanned and good deal of ad-
vertising is necessary so that
the public shall know the pro-
duct. The splendid success of
this exchange should be an in
spiration to farmers who be-
lieve that the cost of marketing
their products could be reduced

VETO OF PRESIDENT

each other in the streets, women and
children laughed and wept for
ecstasy. Though broken and bat
tered by war the Jews contributed
oyer thirty million rubles to the Lib
erty Loan alone. Rich and poor
stripped themselves of all they pos
sessed, their fortunes, their very
homes, and offered them up on the
altar of freedom. Jews contributed
hundreds of thousands for the erec-
ton of Palace of Equality. Vast
sums were donated for the founding
of schools for adult Jews to be in
structed in civic duties. And, con-
trary to the testimony of certain
reverend gentleman-whose state
ments seem to be cunningly cement
ed by the disappointing task of soul
snatching among the Jews in gen
eral-they kept in the background.
Kerenski surely ought to know bet
ter than this Bearer of Good
Tidings. He says:
"For the sake of the common
cause, and in order not to weaken
the national unity and solidarity of
the people, they never pressed the
special Jewish question. The
Jewish leaders never wished of their
own will to take prominent part
in the government, as they feared
that if they assumed responsible
positions at once it might arouse the
anger of the masses and supply the
anti-Semites with an excuse for
recommending an internal struggle"

Russia had warned even the Black
Hundreds. But the world was soon

Deep in their hearts burns mys-
tic light" that will "prove the ulti-
mate emancipation of every fettered
being" Yes, and of everything that
lives.
What the Russian people them
selves thought of their own Jewish
neighbors may be inferred from the
constant demands from their repre-
sentative men in art, science, letters,
commerce, industry, agriculture
for his emancipation. There were
innumerable mass-meetings held
during the war by peasants, mer-
chants, laborers; books were writ
ten by men like Cork and Andreiev
all calling upon their despot to
unshack1e the Jew.
That they were seriously in
earnest was evident from the fact
that scarcely a fortnight was al
lowed to pass after the cashiering
of the car when the Provisional
Government of Lvov and Milukoff
passed the Emancipation Bill
March 80 and April S, 1917, CIV
ing the Jew his freedom. Some
months later Finland freed him,
though upon the victory of the
White Guards he was driven from
the country. The Jews of Turkes-
ton were recognized as citizens.
This occasioned an unbounded
Joy. For centuries the Jew had
lived in Russia as a bondsman,
without the benefits incident to
bondage. And unlike all other
slaves, he wanted to be free. He had
kept battling throughout those
gloomy centuries for emancipation.
Now he was beside himself for hap

minions, each thousand times more
monstrously vicious than the Bibli-
cal Arch-fend, inflicted more than
a Tob's wretchedness. Satan could
occasion pain for Job but dared not
touch his life. But these demons
tied the Jew hand and foot with
laws whose only object was his COM
plete humiliation. They legislated
him out of all decent occupations
and then have backbitten, reviled,
stoned him for engaging in the 9TH
ers. Wherever, to whatever he
turned for a livelihood he was con-
fronted with sign in terrifying let
tiers: JEWS NOT ADMITTED
He was confined by a thousand
regulations, as if he had been worse
than ravaging wild beast, to YER
min-infested, disease dripping, con-
gested enclosure called the Pale of
Settlement, from which he dared not
bulge. In his miry, zigzaggy street
a thousand hellhounds always
logged him with extortionate de-
mands. Inside the walls of his lop-
sided, oozing, gloomy howell he was
constantly in terror of pogroms and
oblavys. Only a recourse to cum
ming and craft made existence pos
sible.
Besides, every Passover was a
season of pillage, robbery, and muir
der. Ignorant, forgetful, or unheed-
full that her own co-religionists had
suffered in ancient Rome from the
same senseless accusation, Russia
had the stupid fable renewed every
spring that the Jew used Christian
blood for his Passover bread. The
sufferings he endured far surpassed
anything he should have endured
had the fable been true.
There are few, very few, who en-
terrain a secret feeling that the
Jews fate in Russia was perhaps not
altogether unmerited. I, myself a
young Russian Jew, could not very
likely be considered wise enough
nor unbiased enough to speak in his
behalf. So I step aside. Let an un-
biased person speak, an Englishman,
whose own late experience with
the Russian Jews should prompt
him to everything but vindication.

who told how her father ''shot Uncle
Laban and threw him into the river

Wyoming, to the pen. Hickey was
arrested about a year ago charged
with the murder Of LAban Woods. a
neighboring rancher. following the
making Of a written confession by
Hickey's wife, giving details of the
alleged crime. As no further evil
'dence could be secured at that time
and as the Law forbids either a wife
or husband to testify against the
other, the man was released, but has
since been re-arrested and is now
awaiting trial.
It was alleged in Mrs. Hickey's
confession that her husband was jeal-
Gus of Wood, but without cause
