OIL PROSPECTS

The Enterprise would not encour-
age any one to invest largely In oil
prospects In this or any other coun-
try unless they were experts at the
game with experience enough to have
a fair idea OF what they were doing
and even then we would not care to
follow their lead In investment OF our

for treasures In the ground or under
the ground as more OF a gamble than
appeals to US.
However, we do regard the oil
prospects in this section as being
reasonably promising.

that are being made to ascertain the
merits or demerits OF the field.

THE AGE OF CHEMISTRY
(Telt N Eight skstehss)
~ JOHN RAYMOND

Within the last few years the world
has been electrified by the vast strides
made in the field OF science by the Gre
alive chemist. Indeed, within a gener-
alton the influence exerted upon the
entire fabric Of our civilization from
within the laboratory has been so
enormous that we are prepared At
last to accept the oft-repeated state
ment that we have passed beyond the
age of machinery and have entered
into the more mysterious age Of chem
istry.
What this new era is to bring forth
in the way Of scientific discovery rests
upon conjecture, but certainly, the
miracles performed in the last half
century have been sufficient to warrant
almost any expectancy.
America has heard that Germany's
chemists saved her from an early dis
astrous defeat, both in the field and
10 the matter Of obtaining supplies.
Without the tremendous expansion Of
her plants for the production OF nj
trates and ammonia from the air BY
processes developed by her great

would have ended years before it did,
as . result Of the exhaustion Of Ger
many's explosives, II not from the ex-
haustion Of her food supplies because
.'.f the lack Of fertilizer for her fields.
SO great, in fact, have been the &C.
complishments in the last few years
that SCIENTIST now declare that ! na-
tion without applied chemistry will be
"defenseless ID war and laggafds in
peace"
Previously unheard Of scientific feats
have been reported from the labora-
tory, but because OF necessity, they
were performed so quietly they were
robbed Of their glamor and their trap
pings of romance while lesser achieve

council chambers Of diplomats have
been hailed by throngs.

her to visit the listers Office. She would
get more of an idea, however, of how
the work is done if she would visit the
office personally.
There are more than 2.1O0 poll tax
payers on the list at present, which does
not include persons over 20 years old or
persons exempt for other reasons but
it does include about 80 women taxpay-
ers. 1t is estimated that under the new
law about 1000 women's names will be
added to the list.
Heretofore, with only men paying poll
taxes. the polls have been set in the list
at 81 each, the actual tax depending of
course on the various tax rates of the
town, village and school district. Last
year these several rates made the poll
tax in the village S-.72 and outside the
village S4.7S. Under the new law, with
women paving poll taxes. the polls are
set in the list at 81 The actual poll tax

will be S2.7S. Outside the village it will
be S2.31.
1t is of course impossible to tell
whether the total amount of taxable
property will be larger this year than
last and not much will be known in
this respect until the listers are well
along with their work. The Horace
Howard estate having been settled viii
not appear in the list this year. 1t was
in last year at $4,000. To offset this
the Fort Drummer Mills property comes
into the list The mill was appraised at
100000 without machinery, so that the
total valuation of the plant ought to more
than Offset the loss of the Howard estate.
The Latchs theatre and some garages
which We're only partially completed last
year, will be in the list this year for their
full assessed valuation. Some of the
banks which have increased their capital
stock will yield an additional revenue.
and from other sources there will be an
increase. On the other hand there has
been decided slump in tho value of live
stock.
In accordance with a recent vote Of
the listers they request each manufa ctur-
er. merchant. dealer and tradesman, at
the suggestion of the state tax commits
sioner. to file an itemized inventory of
disc together with their tax Inventories
