Oil PRODUCTION
RACE IS NOW ON
But Oklahoma Still Leads
California and Texas,
Late Record Shows

Special TO The World.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2S.-Okla-
homa, California and Texas, the
three leading oil producing states,
drew close together In November
and there are indications they will
again resume their neck and neck
race for the lead in production. a
statemeut by George B. Richardson.
petroleum expert of the geological
survey, shows Texas, due to the
heavy output OF the Mexia field, shot
up a million barrels above its Octo-
ber record, having a production of
S,573,0O0 barrels compared with
7,576,000 in October. With the end
ing OF the oil field strike, California
gained 100000 barrels over Octo-
ber, with an output Of S,S0i.000 in
November compared with 1906. 600
in October.
This increase enabled California to
take second place which Texas held
for a month. Daily production in
Oklahoma was about the same as for
the preceding month. The falling
off of the months output in Okla
homa from 9,716.000 In october to
9,445,00O in November was due TO
the fact that october had one dag
less than November.
Big Texas Increase.
The biggest part of the Texas in
crease was in the north central Tex
as field where the output jumped
from 4,s46,O00 in October to $780,
600 in November. Coastal produce
tion increased from 2,730,000 in Oc-
tober to 2,S13,000 in November. Daily
average production in the United
States increased 110,26S barrels dur
ing November, compared with Octo-
her. Beside the big increases in
Texas and California. gains in daily
average production are also recorded
for Wyoming, Oklahoma, Kentucky,

.yuLETlDE IN THE COUNTRY
ohristmas Day In the Old Farm Homo
Recalls Fond and Pleasant
Recollections.

~A HRlSTMAS in the country.
~ Christmas day In the old
49, farm home. What pleasant
\Z memories 1t recalls to some
OF us, and what good times
II Will mean for many Of us this year.
There Us really no place like the farm
home for Christmas good times and
jollity and good cheer. Here, X any
where, prosperity and plenty abound,
and In family gatherings and In neigh
borhood reunions, with an abundance
Of the fruits Of our labor with which
] to spread our bountiful boards, old
friendships may be renewed, new ones
I made, and even the stranger within
our gates may be added to the list.
At Christmas time we may put into
practice the real principles Of neigh
boring. Living close together does not
always make neighbors. Speaking ac-
Quaintances are not always neighbors.
To be real neighbors we must have
the spirit OF neighborliness In our
hearts which prompts us to get to-
gether once in awhile. to gather
around well-laden table and feast,
and visit, and laugh and joke and have
q rousing good time. To love our
neighbor as we do ourself, we have to
know him pretty well, and there Is
nothing like these neighborly reunions
rs means Of getting acquainted.
It may be that some Of us will have
4 to do little mental and spiritual
housekeeping before Christmas day
dawns. We shall have to rid ourselves
Of all the old rubbish OF grudges. dis
likes, jealousies and Ill feelings which
we win find pigeon-holed away when
we begin to overhaul the accumula-
tion Of the years. You will have to
throw all this into the discard before
you can get into the real Christmas
spirit, because the two will not mix.
II you have wronged Your neighb0r In
any way, Christmas Il a good time to-
make reparation. And II you feel that
yOu have been wronged, why, just for
get It, and the Christmas spirit and
the Christmas ..get-together" will do
the rest. Christmas should be Z time
OF peace and good will to all mankind,
ana not to 4 few favored friends. It
should be time Of reviving old A.
,sociations. Of renewing old friend
ships, and Of making new friends, and
the peace and good win, the neigh
1borllness and good fellowship thus re-
vived should not be allowed to die out
as the yule fires cease to burn, but
should flow out In plenteous stream
to enrich our lives through all the
days Of the coming year.
