Salt Lake Tribune: Records re-
Gently made public by the United
States Department Of Agriculture
show that last year 100000
pounds Of meats Of all kinds were inn
ported, about two-thirds Of which was
New leland lamb. This lamb is now
being exported to England. While
meat imports of last year show an in
crease over the preceding year. they
do not establish a record. as the i'm
ports for 1914 were 323.o00,0o0
pounds.
The principal kinds of meat which
the United States has been receiving
lately from foreign countries are
fresh corned beef, veal sausage. beef
extract and fancy meat food pro-
ducts. Such products include pate de
foie gras, liver paste and trufiies.
martadella and salami sausage.
The fresh beef and mutton arrive
principally in Recommendation, though
some chilled beef is received. The
beef usually is heavy, we'll marbled
and is of very good quality, according
to the department. As many as 1907
600 lamb and mutton ar
rive on a single steamer from Aus
tralia and New leland. The lambs
are quite uniform and of good quality
As the United States is the great
est meat-producing country In the
world, news of such heavy importa-
tfons is somewhat startling. We now
understand why 1t Is that the flock
masters of Utah and the whole inter
mountain and Pacific slope country
are unable to find, a market for their
sheep and lambs.
We import large quantities OF 9TH
er kinds of meat to the detriment Of
the home producer. For instance, a
considerable amount of dried beef
comes in from Uruguay. This Is a
product peculiar to that country and
Argentina, large quantities of which
are consumed by their own people.
All kinds of meat and meat food pro-
ducts are imported from Canada.
Such products are shipped to this
country by rail in the same manner as
our meats are shipped from one State
to another. The quality of Canadian
meats is good, and certain products
in which that country sp~ecializes are
in great demand.
Since 1918 importations from Eng
land. France, Italy, Denmark and
Spain have been gradually increas-
ing. Meats from these countries.
however, have little effect on the
meat market of this country, as the
shipments are small and consist
mainly of meat delicacies, such as
pate de foie gras, fancy sausage,
hams, etc.. which are consumed by
epicures and foreign residents.
Canned beef and beef canned with
mushrooms are received from japan,
but in very small quantities, and are
used exclusively by Japanese resi-
dents.
Chinese meat consists Of hams and
sausage. The hams r cured in a

KENYON PLAYS IN
ANOTHER TIE CAME
Unable To Score A Point On
Hiram In Contest Satur-
day Afternoon

HIRAM, Nov. 14-Coach Tillotson's
Hiram eleven Saturday afternoon dis.
played unexpected strength and de.
prived Kenyon warriors of the vic
tory that they had had salted down
for several weeks; the score was to
0, another addition to Kenyon's string
of four tie games.
Three times Hiram threatened to
score, twice in the first period, when
Hiram forwards blocked and fell on
Kenyon's punts, once on the 15.yard
line and again on the 21-yard marker.
At no time was Hiram's goal in dan
ger Kenyon electing to punt time af-
ter time on the first down in the
hope that the water-soaked gridiron
and the slippery ball would supply a
tumble, giving a chance to score.
Tillotson gained strength Saturday
by playing Fullback Bates in the line,
using Bum, recruit, at right half.
Kelker and Shumaker played we'll for
Hiram. Small's punting after the
opening period and the defensive
work of Stone and Chew were the
features Of the Kenyon play.

CLEVELAND MEN ARE
COMING INTO FIELD
Representative OF J. H. Far
rell & Co. Takes Option,
On Brown Farm

A careful study of the Knox county
oil field has been made in the course
of the last week or 10 days by j. II.
Farrell of j. II. Farrell & Co. of
Cleveland. That he is strongly i'm.
pressed by the showing made by the
local field was admitted by Mr.. Far.
rell to The Banner Saturday after.
noon.
Among other informing data gath.
cred by Mr.. Farrell is that the pro.
duction from Knox county wells, ac.
cording to pipeline statistics, during
October totaled 1876 barrels for 21
wells. "a
Since the beginning of operations
in this field, it is estimated, the oper-
ators have made an investment an.
proximating 100000. The field looks
so good that Farrell C Co. have taken
an option on the Brown farm, adjoin.
ing the lease of the Utica Oil & Gas
Co. and also near one held by the
Everetts.
Before deciding to come into the
Knox county field, Farrell & Co. in.
vestigated to ascertain what operat.
ors are now here. Among others they
find the Peru Oil & Gas Co., the Pure
Oil Co.. the Arkansas Gas Co., the
Empire, Dempsey & McGrath of
Clavolopd Eooruo II E,y,,o 80 u.A..
burgh, the Weideman Oil C Gas Co.,
the Winland Oil Co., the verno Oil
Co. and others. Some of these are
operators of large interests.
The average production per we'll is
found to be seven or eight barrels
day. The market price for this oil is
$240 per barrel The farmer or land
owner receives one-eighth royalty.
Some farms already have as many as
four producing wells, representing an
annual income to the farmer of $4,000.
One we'll recently drilled in was
pumped for 1919 hours producing 76
barrels of oil.
StrOnS lnulcatlOnS point TO an eX.
tension of the field in the direction of
Martinsburg in the near future.
While largely interested in the oil
field, Mr.. Farrell also has given some
attention to the gas field. During
the last week we'll was drilled on
the Ross farm, on the west edge of
the gas field. When first drilled in 1t
was dry. but following the shooting it
showed oil. On the east edge of the
field another we'll drilled in by Smith
e Glass went 12 feet into the Be.
rea without developing either gas or
oil. Water was founl. This we'll is
1900 feet east of production and $500
feet southeast of the Rohrer WELL
