Of Sc a share over quotations a week

"Oil conditions favor Wyoming

nal. which adds:
Tho projected pipeline by Sinclair
Pipeline company from Wyoming to a
point in Kansas. connecting with the
transcontinental system OF pipelines,
will furnish h necessary outlet for
Wyoming production, which has been
bold back because Of isolation Of the
fields.
THAT 1t has become necessary to
bring Wyoming oil to eastern markets
is apparent from the fact hat flush
production Of Texas and Louisiana
fields is declining. Tho Mexia field in
northeast Texas is producing 100 900
barrels of oil a day. a drop Of 65. 900
barrels from a few weeks ago. Pro
duction in the Cerro AzuIToteco area
in Mexico is running 100, 900 barrels a
day less than a few weeks ago. These
two areas thus show a falling off il
165. 900 barrels a day.
I'm consequence of that drop. the

by oil men as most opportune."

Quick Aid Curtails
Loss OF Live Stock
In Slope Counties

Mandan, N. D., Feb. 20.-Extreme-
ly heavy losses to farmers and stock
men which threatened due to the fact
that prairie ~pasturage was covered
too deeply to permit live stock to
craze. and which did result in the
starvation of a considerable number
of cattle and horses, have now been
averted through concerted action on
the part of bankers, commercial
clubs, county commissioners and 9TH
Sers. Practically. every county. west Of
the Missouri river has issued seed and
feed bonds bankers hav furnished
the necessary cash for purchase of
feed. and with the railroads making
special "cost rates. at the urgent. re-
quest of. Gov. r. A. Nestos and the
various organizations, hay is being
shipped into the country in sufficient
amount to tide over the stock until
thaws again make the prairie feed
available. -
While the heavy snow storms have
in many ways proved a hardship to
the people of this section, farmers
generally choose to take an optimistic
! view of the situation believing that
the heavy snowfall will prove Of
great benefit when spring comes mas
much as sufficient moisture is assured
to guarantee the crops a good start.
For the past several a the snt w
fall has been light and as a result
the early spring aims were barely
sufficient to sprout the seed and no
reserve moisture was stored in the
ground to Withstand the hot dry days
of summer. AS a result the Missouri
slope suffered short crops.

YOUNGSTERS
TO KEEP OFF CARS

Police officials are issuing a warn
ing to boys and girls to put a stop to
their habit Of catching on the rear of
street cars. Recently there has been
much complaint about children hang
ing onto the rear of the cars. for the
purpose, of sliding, and some of them
attach their sieds to the cars for a
speedy ride.
The fact that practically all of the
cars now in 8 are run by one man,
who is both conductor and motorman,
makes it impossible for that n man
watch the rear of the car, while
operating. The street company
will cooperate as far as possible in
stamping out the practice. which is
being followed by a number of chill
dren, and police officials will punish
the offenders if necessary.
Chief J.%W. Lowe asks thai parents
will warn their children of the danger
Of hanging onto the cars, and draws
attention to the fact that they are
apt to be struck by automobiles,
teams. etc.

Sensational Writer Bases A
I Two Page Thriller On A
Very Slight Foundation OF
Fact; Ruth B~aughman's
n Experience. Are Magni6ed
And Distorted.

Many Grand Forks people were
shocked on Sunday to read in a
Minneapolis paper a sensational two
page feature story, illustrated and
embellished in the manner familiar to
readers of the metropolitan Sunday
supplements. dealing with the alleged
experiences of Miss Ruth Baughman,
a student Of music and drama in
New York, who is saideto have been,
inveigled, with. several other girls, into
signing q contract for entertainment
work in Christobal. Panama. and to
have in consequence passed hrough .
series of adventures sufficient to have
provided the material for several
movie plots.
Miss Baughman is the daughter Of
MT. and Mrs. A.. D. Baughman of
1903 Lewis boulevard. Grand Forks.
who have for many years been well
known inc respected residents OF this
city. The young lady is a graduate OF
the Grand Forks public. schools and
Of the University of North Dakota.
Some time ago she went to New
York to continue special studies in
music and drama, departments for
which she had a special liking and for
which she had shown an unusual
aptitude.
Denies Story.
Mrs. Baughman yesterday assured
The Herald that her daughter had
had no such experiences as are de-
scribed in the story referred to. 1t
appears that last fall Miss Baugh-
man, with a dozen other girls OF her
own age, did go to Panama to do
entertainment work, the trip being
on such as are frequently under
taken by college girls for the purpose
OF enjoying a pleasant outing. with
expenses paid, and a small monetary
compensation. Among the passengers
on the same boat were the governor
Of the canal one and several ladies',
members Of his family. The young
entertainers were in close association
with the governor and Ais party on
the way down, and Miss Baughman
remained in touch with them during
her brief sojourn on the isthmus: AS
IN so many other cases, the experience
proved less attractive on close in
spection than it had seemed from .
distance. The climate was oppres-
eive, and the surroundings were not
such as to induce a girl Of Miss
Bauehman's type to prolong her stay
there. She decided to return to New
York, and did so. without any diff

All Of this happened early in the

DENIES MCCORMICK WAS OPERATED UPON
 TO REGAIN YOUTH

CHICAGO, June 24-Word received here from Paris today with reference to the publicity given the recent oQer- ation on Harold Mccormick, stated that Doctor L'Espinasse had del 'ed that there had been any transplanting of human glands as reported. The ru- mors were doubtless started because the doctor is an authority on gland transplainting, which was all that was needed to start somebody saying that Mccormick was trying to renew his youth, and connect the operation with reports of his engagement to noted Parisian.
