CAUTION ISSUED.

The health authorities in the ma
tons capital have sounded a warn
ing to all school authorities every
where regarding insanitary conditions
in schools. Basing this warning upon
mortality statistics. the Washington
health office quotes reliable figures
to prove the contention that the death
rate in school children is largely af-
fected by school conditions.
The mortality tables of the United
States show that the death rate of
children decreases rapidly from the
age Of I year, in which it is very
high, to the age of 5 and 6, when it
becomes very low. The child at these
ages enters school, and the mortality
rate Immediately increases until the
age of II is reached. At this age
| the death rate almost equals that of
the child 1 year old.
This waste of life, health experts
explain, could be reduced so per cent
| which would increase the average
span of life of an American which
is now 80 years, to possibly 48 or sc
years. The increase in the death rate
from the time the child enters schoo
is attributable to school life or grouI
association.
Some of the conditions which result
in children's diseases spreading
through the schools are named a.
overcrowding, lack of playground
space, poor plumbing, inefficien'
heatig, bad ventilation, insanitar!
drinking fountains, and insufficie
care in looking after children witt
contagious diseases for a sufficien
lenth of time.

new TARIFF BILL
is ALL AMERICAN

WASHINGTON, April 26.-In con-
n~ection with the presentation to the
Senate of the Fordney tariff bill as
amended by the Senate finance COM
mittee, Senator McCumber, chairman
of the finance committee, issued a
statement ain behalf of the commit
tee" in which he emphasized the fact
that the bill as reported by the COM
mittee is can "all-American tariff
bill"
"This tariff BILL" said Senator Nc
Cumber, when approved by both the
Senate and House, will be the first
national tariff bill in our history.
Throughout the preparation of this
measure the Senate finance commit
tee has endeavored to lay the found
alton for an era of nationwide pros
perity. Increased prosperity is but
the expression of increased produc-
ton. There can be no increase Of
production without a prosperous cor
Stunning public.
"The American market is the one
great important market for Ameri-
can products. The American people
consume more than 80 per cent of ev-
erything they produce. The pro-
Queer is therefore most vitality inter-
ested in not only maintaining but in
increasing the purchasing power of
every individual consumer. With
this thought in mind the public will
recognize this bill as a consumers

buying power of the consumer. The
Senate finance committee is con-
WINGED that the first step in increas-
ing the individuals ability to buy is

The ruin and wreckage of the Will

the tremendous efforts made during

On August 10, 1854, while Cross
ing the "Bozeman cut off," on a
spur of the Prior Mountains, an
army wagon stopped to repair a
wheel. While hunting for water,
the driver skinned enough oil off
a pool to fill his axle grease can.
This was the first recorded dis
covery CT oil In what is now the
state Of Eontana. And the spot
where this incident occurred is
within a few miles of the present
Soap Greek field, which boasts the
largest producer in the State.
Development however had to
wait 55 years before 1t assumed
commercial proportions. It was
not until November 6, 1919, that
the Van Duzen Oil Company,
fathered by a Montana man, en-
countered oil in commercial guam
titles at a depth of 1,175 feet In
the Devils Basin, 90 miles north
of Roundup. On February 10,
1920, the Frantz Corporation,
drilling in the Mosby Dome on the
Cat Greek anti-cline, 80 miles
northeast of the discovery well,
encountered oil flowing at the rate
of 30 barrels a day and containing
a high percentage Of gasoline.
Three months later the same com
pany brought in a near-gusher
four miles to the west which at
first flowed 1000 barrels, and has
since steadily produced at the rate
of several hundred barrels a day.
On June II, 1871, the Western
States Oil ana Land Company,
drilling in the Soap Greek, AZ
miles southeast of Hardin, brought
In a $500 barrel well and estab-
hshed this as the third real pro
ducing field in Montana.
The Devils Basin discovery we'll
established the presence of oil
bearing sands in Montana. The
Cat Greek strike proved the pres
ence Of oil containing 84% gaso-
line, the highest gasoline content
found anywhere nj the United
States. And the second Cat Cresk

pre- 1ucer and the 3,200-barrel well
IN the Soap Greek field demon
strated the existence of oil In Mon
tana in attractive quantities.
Today the Cat Greek field has
SO producing wells. The Devils
Basin field has two producers and
the Soap Creek structure five
producers.
During 1921 Cat Greek pro-
duced 1850, 900 barrels, valued at
$3,500,000. During the last three
months of the year produC ion
averaged slightly In excess Of
150, 1000 barrels per month. GeolO-
gists estimate the life of this field
at between 10 and 20 years, with
a probable total production. Of
100000 barrels. The refinery
at Lewistown during the month of
January, 1872, recovered from Cat
Greek crude oil 1929 gallons of
gasoline, representing an average
gasoline content of 500, probably
the highest percentage Of recovery
of any oil anywhere in the coun-
try.
The Soap Greek product, in con-
trast to Cat Greek, tests 500
Iubricating oil and 27% illumin-
ating. At present over 5000 bar
rels of oil a day is held under con-
troll, ready to be liberated as soon
as adequate transportation faciIi-
lies are available. It is expected
that the Burlington will build a
36-mile branch line from Hardin
