SHORE PACKING
PLANT BURNED
Fertilizer, Lime and Oyster
Factory of w. H. Valiant
Destroyed at Bellevue
FIREMEN MAKE
HEROIC FIGHT

EASTON. Nd. May 11.-Fire de-
stroyed the large fertilizer plant,
lime kiln and oyster packing house
Of william II. Valiant at Bellevue
opposite oxford yesterday. The FIRE
started, It is believed in the large
oyster house near the boiler. where
a lot Of fish guano had been stored,
and Mr.. Valiant believes II was
caused by spontaneous combustion.
A bucket brigade started 10 fight the
flames before calling on Easton and
oxford for assistance. The alarm
reached Easton about a quarter be-
fore six, and brought out the fire
company, who after obtaining per-
mission OF the mayor started on
their 11-mile trip making it in 20
minutes.
When the fremen reached here
the blaze had practically destroyed
three large buildings and their con-
tents, but they arrived in time TO
save the canning plant and store
houses and also the gasoline house
over 500 gallons OF gasoline were
within rs feet OF the ire. and the
fremen fought with heroic EFFORT 10
keep the flames from the gas and
the other buildings. Men were sta
toned along the roof with buckets
to put out every little spark that
started and in this way an explosion
was prevented. A gas engine in the
lime kiln exploded and tore a large
hoio IN q hrfck wall adfofninu
cask Of oil also exploded, causing
loud report. but did no damage. Mr..
Valiant places his loss at s250,0 900
with very little insurance. He stated
that he never had so much fertilizer
on hand during his entire business
career as he had when the FIRE start
ed. and the most OF il was not in
sured. Two large schooners were at
the wharf with new machinery, and
these were removed from danger.
About four hours OF hard fight-
ing by the Easton Fire Department
and the fire fighters from Oxford
we're under control. The once fur
niture was saved, but practically
nothing else. Mr.. Valiant will start
TO rebuild as soon as possible, but in
the meantime about two hundred
employees will be without work. This
establishment was one OF the largest
plants OF its kind in the State. doing
a hourishing business in the oyster,
crab and fish industry. The Easton
Fire Department received merited
praise for good work in the face OF
immediate danger.

STATE RANKS HIGH
 Gri OIL PRCDUcTIGN
OutstrirS Three Old Producing Safes Geological Survey
 Shows.

Washington. May e7.-If there were any doubts about whether Arlztrt1 t1s is an oil-prcducing state they were shattered today when the Geological Survey issued it's report for April showing that the state had celebrated the second month of its survey re- ports by leaving behind such old pro duciue states as Indiana, Montana and New York and climbing into strik- distance Gf Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
 The figures disclosed that Arkansas produced 100000 barrels of oil in April, CT a daily production of 15,000 barrels, which is equal to the entire amount produced by the state in March, it's first appearance in the re- port. The April figures for states al- ready passed by Arkansas are: h. diana 1O2,OOO; Montana, 96,0OO; Now York, S6,OOO; Colorado, 10000, and Tennessee, 1900.
 The figures for states which must look out for their laurels next month are: Ohio, 5000; Pennsylvania, 636,0OO; West Virginia, 691 ,00O; Illi-
 The three-cornered race between California, Texas and Oklahoma for the largest production was given add ed interest this month when Oklahoma forced Texas into third place, and pro- duced only half million barrels less than California, the leader. Figures for these three states in April were: California, 10,170,000; Oklahoma, g., 552,000, and Texas 8,825,O0 barrels.
 Both the north central and the Tex as coastal fields showed decrease pro- duction in April, while Arkansas, Ok lahoma Kansas, California, Wyoming and Kentucky all reported increases.
 The outstanding fact of current pe- troleum statistics is that stocks con- tinue 4to pile up. Since May 1920 pipe .li3a and tank farm stocks oi domestics petroleum, plus stocks of MeXicail5betroleum held in the United States bg~importars, have increased more than 37,000,000 barrels, an amount equal to almost a months do- mestic production and the quality of crude oil now in storage is the great est on record
 The daily average production for oil wells of the United States in April reached the record figures of 1,334,000 barrels Although imports during the month decreased somewhat and con- sumption increased slightly, stocks at the end of April were more than G. 100000 barrels greater than at the beginning of the month. Imports for April, amounting to 10,043 ,924 barrels showed a decrease in daily average as compared with March of 1920, al- though for the first four months of the year imports increased more than 22,OO0,000 barrels, as compared with a similar period of 1920.
