NEW JERSEY BENEFITS BY
NATIONAL APPROPRIATIONS

At the request of the Farm Bureau
Federation, Congress increased the
tuberculosis appropriation by $780,
900, which is to become Immediately
available, making a total %appropria-
ton of $2,027, 500. OF this amount
about SAC, 500 will come to the State
of New Jersey in addition to the State
appropriations made at Trenton last
year. These funds are administered
by the State Department of Agricul-
ture through DR.. Mcneil in such a
manner as best to promote the dairy
industry of the State.
Another portion of the appropria-
ton which is of direct interest to the
farmers of New Jersey is the increase
of $3OO,0 600 for extension work, of
which New Jersey receives about $5,-
coo, which was made at the request
of the national and state declarations.
In supporting this the State
office got in touch with the Congress
men of New Jersey, who were very
considerate of the request.

HONEY PHILOSOPHY FOR 1922.

What do you care about the scan

him. Amt he putin you on the
map? All you need worry about is
that what he says isn't so. Every
bodyll find hat out by an by an

if you keep on smilin'. The man who
knocks you'll help you more than the

boosters likely to paint things up just
as much as the knocker and when the
folks find out you're not a white wing

an angel at all. Opinions don't cut
much figure anyhow, an there's no
use trying to stop folks from havin'

GARY ATTACKS THE FARM BLOC.

Wall Street loses no opportunity to
level it's guns at the farmer, nor does
il hesitate to fire when the big chiefs
give the word. At present, of course,
the assault is directed at the farm
bloc. and it is an assault as deter
mined and yet as subtle as it will
prove fruitless. After ireiterating the
well worn platitude that the aw OF
the land should be made TO apply with
even justice to every man and every
industry, Judge Gary, of the Steel
few years, there has arisen a DISPOSE
ton ito pass laws which measurably
exempt labor organizations, and re-
Gently farmer associations, from gov
ernmental investigation, supervision
and control against wrong. Not only
are they exempted from certain re-
~strictiye provisions of the existing
statutes, but they are afirmatively
permitted TO do certain things pro-
hibited to Others" he says. t per-
nit labor associations or farmer or
ganizations to do, as the result OF
combination, things that are claimed
to be beneficial to them which are
denied to others, is to create class to
favor some of them and to injure the
whole body polite"
Surely this is spurious logic of the
first water, but unfortunately, 1t is
hidden in the cloak of seeming JUS
toe, The basis Of american liberty
is goyerpwent by the majority, the
plain duty tof government is to guard
and protect its fundamental indus
tries and the labor upon which the
life of the nation depends. Presum-
ably it is all right in the eyes of
Judge Gary to permit certain special
rights to railroads, the practical right
of condemnation of property and other
privileges denied to individuals, for
example, because the railroads are
public institutions, but the farmer
who is the fundamental public institu-
ton of the world, must sit back salts
fed to be ignored. 1t would seem that
Judge Gary answers himself when
further in his recent address he says:
1T is a trite saying that often the
man who cries stop thief in the loud
est tones has the stolen goods in his
pocket"

of the First Presbyterian Church.
He has had a wonderful growth
in attendance during his short
ministry here, both in the
church congregations and in the
Sunday School, SO much so that
the Sunday School has over
crowded it's quarters and pro-
vision must be made for an en-
larged school room.
During the past six months
there have been some moves to
enlarge the entire church by
erecting a new structure to cost
probably 100000, but it has been
decided to only provide larger
Sunday School room at the pres
ent time and to hold off the
erection of the new church until
a later date.
Pastor Simanton was born at
Vienna, Warren County, New
Jersey, and is the son of a
Presbyterian minister. His early
life was spent on a farm, and
in 1880 he moved to a farm
near Hackettstown, New Jersey.
In 1891 he graduated from the
Academy. at BlairStOWn. New

0LTONLEAYES
TO BUILD Line
OSALTLAKE
Project Awaits Completion of
Well in Wy0ming-Gas
Field.

On the completion of the initial
work of installing the pipe lines of the
Illinois Pipe Line company in the ke-
vin-Sunburst field, Elmer Bolton, man
ager of this work. has been assigned to
Salt Lake City, Utah.
It is understood by oil men that the
transfer of Bolton to Salt Lake City
means that he will direct the installa-
ton of the proposed gas line from Wy
oming to Salt Lake City, a distance of
175 miles. The project, according to
oil men, is now awaiting the compile
ton of the Ohio's second gas we'll in
the Wyoming gas field and with the
of the extent of the gas.
the pipe line will be begun at ence.
AS one of the principal Pipe line
projects to be planned this year, Bolton
will have an important part to play IN
construction work, if the beliefs of OIL
men are correct.
The natural gas supply will be taken
at a premium by Salt Lake City be-
cause of the difficulty now experienced
through the burning of soft coal Salt
Lake City is in a pocket where it is
seldom reached by strong winds sueh
as would carry the smoke away from
it. In the winter. with industrial plants
and heating plants using soft coal, the
soot is dropped in the city streets
with a result that rivals Pittsburgh.
Natural gas is expected to almost en-
tirely displace the use of the soft coal
in the city if the Illinois Pipe Line
project goes through.

SCOUTSPERPLEXED
At ELDERS ADVICE
NPROPERC CONDUCT
One Man Says Smoking Is a
Bad Habit and the Other
Approves 1t.

Neutrality-suspicious. of The
Associated Press.1-It would appear TO
be the fate of Boy Scouts the word
over to have to listen to good advice
from their elders. In England the boys
take it good humoredly and patiently,
as all in the days work.
But recently a group of Scouts must
have been p~erplexed, as well as amused,
when the good advice from two speak
ers did not in the least agree. They
had come into Bedford to attend church.
The vicar. the Rev. A. o. Cheney, adj
dressed them. He warned them against
smoking as a. "dirty and disgusting
habit"
He told them to remember to keep
the Sabbath day holy and not to go
about making a noise and disturbing
the villagers" tThe boys had marched
to church headed by bugles and drums.)
Nor. he said. should anything be
done on Sunday which entailed extra
work for anyone. (The villagers had
agreed to entertain the visiting scouts
to tea.l The vicar said he never en-
tertained anyone on Sundays; people
should stay at home On Sunday and
help along the activities of the church.
After the service Lord Ampthill got
his turn at the boys. He said that
smoking had been helpful tie some of
the greatest men in the world. One
of the wisest philosophers used to
smoke like u chimney. But, of course.
it wouldn't be right for small boys
to smoke.
He always entertained his friends on
Sunday, he said. He honored God by
going to church Sunday morning, but
afterward he sometimes did a bit of
carpentry. The idea of Sunday. he told
the boys. was that it should be a day
Of rest. which meant abstention from
ordinary work. Manual labor on Sun
DAYS rested him rather more than any
thing else because. during the week. he
had to attend a good many meetings In
hot. stuffy rooms.
So long as they did not disturb the
peace of their villages, they need have
no c~ompunctions in turning oat on Sun
day to pay a friendly compliment to a
new troop.
One of the grownups suggested that
the peer and the parson should hold
a public discussion on the subject, the
proceeds to be divided equally between
tha church and the scouts.

Denton Well Nears
Expected Oil Sands;
Shy Only IT'S Feet
Snecial to The Tribune.

DFtld ~ aS
Lewistown, Oct. 30.-Dorman Jack
son is in from his farm II miles east of
town and reports that the well being
nut down BY the Jackson Dome COM
Dany has passed the 700 foot level, with
all indications very favorable. A good
flow of water was struck some days
ago and this is being cased off.
The well being drilled on the Bailey
dome. near Denton. by q Eugene, Ore,
syndicate. is now down 1925 feet. But
for q delay due to losing a bailer the
drill would now be to the k%ootenal-
About 175 feet remains TO be drilled be-
fore the sand in which production is ex-
pected is reached.
Geologist C. J. Stone of Great Falls
has finished a survey of the land of the
Winnett Oil & Gas company in the east
end of the Flatwillow structure and the
company will make arrangements to
put down a test well there, having fl
nanced its project.
Very good progress is being made at
the Derereaux well, spudded in a few
days ago, in section f2-15-2S. in the ex-
IRENE west end of Cat Creek. This is
one of the most important projects be-
ing carried out in the field and will be
watched with the greatest interest by
all the oil men. With the best equip
ment ever seen in the field n the
means to carry out the work speedily,
the company is prepared to drill down
:, 200 feet if necessary so that the third
sand theory will be tested in this en-
ternrise. President Deyereaux consid-
ers the matter of so much Importance
that he has moved into the location and
will remain in Cat Greek during the
whole period of drilling.
The Mosby Oil company. a Washing
ton corporation composed entirely of
outside people, is preparing to put
down its third well in Cat Creek. The
for drilling has been let to
Stewart and Stewart and material will
be moved on to the location in section
at once. The company now
has two small producers.
Drilling was resumed Friday at the
O'Neil well in section 16-15-3o, after
easing off the water. Two hundred
feet of drilling will carry the hole to
the second sand where production is
expected.
Herbert A. Hover has brought suit
against c. 2. Ritter and associates to
recover $4,000 alleged to be due under
two contracts. for expenditures made
in the development Of certain oil prop
critics in Cat Greek.
