INSPECT CUTTINGS
Identification Movements Should he
Safeguarded

The Florida Times Union recently
carried the following article in its
short Talks" column:
The st. Petersburg Times a few
days ago said: A steady stream of
home owners, moved by the spirit of
lcivic pride, visited the city auditorium
this morning to dispense and receive
free cuttings of rooted plants. Under
the auspices of the Women's Town
Improvement Association, today had
been set aside as planting day to stim-
ulate the planting of flowers, shrubs
and trees for the purpose of city
Identification The newspaper adds
that among the cuttings and rooted
plants distributed were oleanders,
lilies, poinsettias, alamanders, scarlet
flame, bougainvilea, Joseph's coat,
rubber trees, begonia, hibiscus, gera-
NUNS and many others. st. Peters
burg home owners are all interested
in making the Sunshine City even
more beautiful and interesting"
Before undertaking this project the
Mayor of st. Petersburg arranged
with the Florida State Plant Board
to have an inspector present to in
spect and certify all cuttings before
they We're exchanged.
This inspection is absolutely neces-
sary for two good reasons.
FirCt. The low
Second. Quite often pests of con-
siderable Importance occur in the
various backyards and if no inspec-
ton We're made, such an exchange of
might be the means of dis
tributing plant pests of all kinds.
Cities that are planning civic beau
should certainly arrange TO
have all cuttings exchanged on one
day and have an inspector of the
state Plant Board present at that
lime to give them all careful in
spection.

Adrdnce in Tubular
Goods Expected Soon

Reports are current that an ad
vance in the price OF tubular goods
Is imminent and that the advance
likewise probably will involve other
iron and steel products used in the
oil industry.
1t has not been so long since the
steel industry looked upon the
Mexia development as Its salvation.
Few orders had been going on the
books of the steel companies and all
the sudden the oil operators began a
scramble for steel and the Mexia de-
velopment became an important fac
tor in the steel situation. Now, how
ever. the demand for structural as
well as oil field steel and iron has
become insistent and the result of
an increasing demand always is an
advancing Of prices.
Steel derricks were in such de-
mand last week that builders of
these derricxs were unable to sup
ply the demand. One company had
more than so wood derricks blown
down in one field alone in the storm
OF Sunday night. A representative of
one OF the steel derrick concerns
who last summer was canvassing al
most hopelessly for business said
that his concern was oversold to
such an extent that no effort was
made to get any share OF the busi-
ness OF the company that was need
ing upward of so derricks--and
needing them in a hurry.

NeW Merger Talk
Again FiLlinq Air

With the oil business well on rs
way into an era OF prosperity, there
are numerous mergers and consoli.
dations In the air. Already there
have been a large number OF con.
Germs Joined forCes with a view 10
more efficient operations and appli-
cation of capital.
From New York come rumors that
negotiations are under way between
officials OF the Gulf and Standard
Oil interests. Whether there is any
foundation for these reports proba =
bly, Will not be known for several
weeks or months, because IL requires
an immense amount OF labor to work
out details of such combination.
And then. too. there may not be any
thing at all come OF It.
II was only a few days ago that
announcement was made OF the TAX
ing over of control OF the Lyons
Petroleum company by the Pro-
ducers G. Refiners corporation. The
Lyons offices are now being moved
to Tulsa. Not many months ago the
Middle States interests acquired
control Of the Turman oil company.
II was while the Transcontinental
company's purchase OF the Conti-
mental Oil company's properties
around Slick and Bristow was still
fresh news that the Rollstone and
Freeland interets, who controlled d
Continental, stepped out with the
Roland company and built up a pro-
duction that probably now would sell
we'll up into the millions.
Roxana late last year purchased
OF Marland control OF the Comc-
company and shortly sfterward OBJ
tained control of the Union Oil COM
\any OF Delaware. owner of the old
Wolverine and other companies.
Only last week Pittsburgh capital
rs purchased tthe Usage properties
OF the Manhattan oil company. All
the Waite Phillips companies were
consolidated a few days ago.
Numerous reports were current
last summer to the effect that some
larger company was TO take over the
properties OF the Kingwood Oil COM
pany. but so far as is known moth
Ing ever came Of these various nego-
tiations.
Just now there are several reports
going the rounds involving COM
panies with their principal offices
In Tulsa. Whether these negotiations
will bear fruit remains to be seen.
but should they prove successful It
undoubtedly will prove of immense
benefit to all involved. And. too.
mergers do not come off except in
times OF optimism regarding the par
ticular industry involved.
