Low Crude Prices Can't

dated Oil corporation, expressed
the belief that with recent ad-
justments, crude oil prices in the
Mid-Continent field are at the
bottom and should result in early
sterilization of the industry"
"Pessimism in the petroleum
industry" he said, "has been
carried to ridiculous extremes.
Conditions in recent months
have been bad, but they certain
Iy have not been as bad as the
public has been led to believe.
"The prices we are now pay
ing for crude oil do not cover the
cost of production except from
perhaps 5000 out of 285,O0O pro-
ducing wells of the United States.
Obviously, such a condition
cannot last and the sooner it is
corrected the better. If the de-
cline in CALIFORNIA; production
is as rapid as now expected,
there will be a shortage of crude
oil, which must necessarily mean
higher prices"

Dick Mumbord and R. M. Steed
both of Minneapolis, have spent
the last few days looking over
the Kelvin field. Mr.. Steed is
president of the Lake Basin Oh
company and also president of
the Minneapolis Brick and Tile
combany, one of the larger con-
Germs of that city. They are very
much interested in the field and
believe it to have a great future.
1t is probable that they will be-
come interested in some of it's
development in the near future.

Kelvin To Burn
Gas This Winter

The Dueck-Nicholson state well, Sc
NV ne of section 36-35-3 west drilled into a
big flow of gas Saturday afternoon in the
Sunburst sand at depth of 1861 feet
The amount of gas being between three to
five million feet, the Sunburst sand was
hit about IL feet higher on the structure
than the Snyder-Jensen well, which was
located only short distance to the south
east. The red beds were reached at a
depth of $50 feet.
A special meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce was called Saturday evening
and an agreement was entered into with
Mr.. Nicholson to pipe the gas into town

will prove another case where a tech
nicality has been allowed to defeat
the cause Of Justice, and another in
stance where the larger interest Of So
ciety has been subordinated to mere
.phraseology. When the law in this
case vase passed, congress intended
to fix a crime and provide its pun
ishment. Because federal judges have
erred in not framing their sentences
precisely in accord with the penalty
provided in the law, must society be
put again at the mercy of those GRIM
inals? To make the matter o alb
surd, it is not contended that the
judges exceeded the penalty provided,
but that they neglected to inflict the
full penalty. The complaint of the
attorneys is that their clients were not
punished enough.
1t is that sort of court procedure
that is contributing directly to disre-
gard of the law in the United States
and even to communism. There are
too many attorneys who are willing
to see a proved criminal go free rath

CONTROL THE PESTS

Those keeping poultry are or
should be very much interested in the
determination of parasites, both ex-
ternal and internal, that constantly
prey upon and sap the vitality of their
stock. The control of lice and mites
is an integral part of good ranch
methods. With the advance of in
tensive poultry culture it is the pains
taking progressive worker who will
succeed best against this keen COM
petition.
The poultryman who allows lice,
mites and worms to take toll from
his flock cannot expect to get the
best production for he is constantly
inviting loss and disease because of
the terrific strain these t~ortuous pests
show upon the ervou system of his
hens. Some seem to think it a sort
Of disgrace to admit or to believe that
their flock is infested with vermin.
Others are ov~er-confident that condi-
tions are right and neglect to look
until the pests fairly walk away with
the place. Lice and mites are as
common to poultry as fleas are to
dogs and no one should fail to make
frequent observations in hot weather
Some energetic cuss with more
mathematical genius than we posses:
has advanced the calculation that only
one pair of husky lice can, with
ordinary activity and luck, be grand
parents to 125, 600 in five weeks time
If facts and figures have erred at al
it is on the side of too few rather
than not enough. 1t is our expert
ence that the ways of determination
are many and none of them difficult
but the big damage is done when tn
owner fails to do anything. In othe
words it is not so important what yo1
do as it is that something be done.

have found a good bath satisfactor,

HAMSTRUNG JUSTICE

Many cases in which the govern
ment is one of the litigants are tried
in the supreme court of the District
of Columbia. In the last five years it
is said that more than 100 persons
have been tried and sentenced to Jail
on charges involving bribery in con
nection with transactions with the
government. A recent case was that
of a former army captain convicted
of accepting a bride from a firm sell
ing supplies to the quartermaster
corps of which he was then a mem
Der. He was sentenced to Is months
in jail. Now comes his attorney with
a writ of habeas corpus based on the
contention that he is illegally impris-
| oned because the law fixes the penalty
as both fine and Imprisonment. The
lawyer contends that his client must
be set free, never to be punished
again for the same charge, and that
scores of others now in prison should
also be free men for the same reason.
The mar is now out on bond, with
hearing on the habeas corpus writ set
for next month.
What the outcome of the hearing
may be remains to be seen, but it may
result in setting free a hundred OF

HOW To CANDLE
Or TEST eggs

Testing eggs by sunlight instead Of
using a lamp makes the work far
easier. A room having one window on
the south side is best suited for the
work. This room should be darkened
by lacking a piece of dark oilcloth
over the window or windows. Then
cut a hole in the cloth the size of an
egg. Each egg is held up to the hole
and the sun shining on it will enable
the tester to see the condition of the
egg. The best egg for preserving has
a small air space at the large end.
The yolk is only slightly visible AS
the egg gets older, the air space in
creases in size, due to evaporation
and the yolk becomes more cloudy
and easier to see. The white also be-
comes thinner and more watery, thus
making the yolk more visible.
Cracked eggs can also be detected
readily. These should be culled Out
as well as all eggs showing very large
air spaces and quite clody yolks. II
a newly laid egg the air space is usu.
ally about the size of a five or ten.
cent piece. An egg having an ali
space one-half an inch in depth SHOULD
not be put in a p~reservative. Al
eggs with heavy or cloudy yolk'
should be culled out, even though tn,
air space may be small. Such egg
are usually fertile, and show the eff
fects of a broody hen sitting on them
Warm weather conditions with a tenn
perature as high as 80 degrees Fehr
enheit for four hours will cause egg
to go the same way. In such cas-
the egg germ has started to grov
and they are not likely to keep.

THEY DREW A SPLIT.

The convention of the farmer-labor
delegates at Chicago made little pro-
gress toward electing a president; in
fact, the net result Of the meeting APP
a to have been a split in their
ranks and the formation of two par
ties, the farmer-labor and the feder-
ated farmer-labor. The men who are
behind the rarmer-labor movement are
of a temperament that will prevent
cooperation for any great length of
time. Otherwise they could continue
their affiliation with one or the other
of the two major parties. There have
been numerous third party movements
in the history of the country, but
none of them ever gained more than
an insignificant percentage Of either
house of congress, and none ever
elected a president. Those facts are
available to anybody who T to be
guided by them. The Chicago dele
gates were simply flying in the face
of precedent. What they want is ex-
element and a chance to denounce
the Republican and Democratic can
didates. That they will get, but moth
ing else.

skim milk at the rate Of a pound a
day. The daily ration may be in
creased from 2 to a pounds, depending
on the vigor of the calf; but the total
quantity must be we'll below the ca
pacity of the calf. At the end of this
week the ration will be approximately
one-half whole and one-half skim
milk.
Fourth week: During this week
the change to skim milk is continued
until at the end of the week only the
skim milk is being used.
Fifth week and thereafter: All but
delicate calves will get skim milk
from now on. The quantity can be
gradually increased until Is or 20
pounds is being fed. More than this
can not be economically fed, as a rule
unless it is very plentiful. Six months
is a good average age at which tC
wean calves from milk. When the
best of hay, silage and grains can be
fed, milk can be discontinued earlier
If there is good succulent pasture
available, this is the best possible
time for weaving a calf. If there j:
plenty of cheap skim milk, it can bt
fed profitably to calves until they are
s to 10 months old.
If the calf is watched carefully
after it is two months old it may b.
fed sour milk, whole, skim, or butter
milk, provided the change from wee
milk is made gradually.

setting hens and their broods re-
quired no other attention. We are SO
completely convinced of the remedial
qualities of ashes and dust that no
other remedy with our flock is con-
templated. However, there are many
special preparations that are good.
A penny saved is often a source of
great relief to the purse and because
of the effort to unload literally train
loads of condiments, remedies, dopes
and rubbish at attractive prices onto
the enthusiastic embryo poultrymen
of tomorrow, it has long been III
custom to confine our recommends
lions to the simple, inexpensive treat
ments for ordinary troubles, such as
lice, mites and worms. a
The most economical spray or paint
for roosts and one which kills off
mites as well as any we have found
is the oil drained from the auto crank
case. If this source does not supply
enough paint it is an easy matter to
add crude carbolic acid, stove distil-
late or kerosene.
The havoc wrought by worms on
some plants is very great and the dis
coveries of the subject takes lots of
space, therefore we feel that it is
enough to warn our readers to be on
the alert and to use occasional expel-
lants in moderate form if there is no
cause for alarm. Two or three pei
cent tobacco dust in the mash feed for
ten days and repeated at intervals
of three weeks three or four times q
year is practiced by many. For the
small flock a convenient treatment i;
that of soakin gthe grain feed in tur,

GIVING THE DAIRY
CALF A GOOD START

At least four-fifths of all the dairy
calves are raised on skinned milk,
a Y the United States department of
agriculture, grain being used to take
the place of the butter fat removed.
But the best practice calls for feed
ing whole milk for the first two
weeks, at the end of which time skim
milk may be substituted in part and
gradually increased until no whole
milk is being fed. The ideal way to
start out calves by hand is to feed
every two hours, but this should re-
quire too much labor, and practical
dairymen have found that they can
start calves very well by feeding three
times a day. The three intervals be-
tween feeds should be as near eight
hours as possible. By the end of four
weeks the calf may be getting skim
milk entirely. Very strong calves
may be put on skim milk alone by the
time they are two weeks old, but the
change must be made gradually.
The department recommends the
following schedule, but it is not al,
ways practicable to adhere to it rig
idly.
For the first and second week
For the first four days, 8 to IL pounds
of milk from the dam. Later the
milk may be from any cow or COWS il
the herd, but preferably not from any
of the nearly dry. Milk containing
more than 4 per cent fat is consid
cred best for feeding calves.
