CLAIMED TEAPOT DOME
 OIL LEASE BEING
 DRAINED BY OUTSIDERS

Washington, Oct. 23.- Tea pot Dome, the Wyoming naval oil reserve, leased last year to Harry F. Sinclair, is being rap- idly drained of it's oil contents by the operators of the adjac- ent oil lands, not included in the naval reserve, in the opin- ion of two expert geologists who recently completed an ex- tensive survey of the district.
 It is the belief of the experts that the naval reserve area will produce far less oil than was anticipated, owing to the drain from the privately owned wells in the vicinity.
 The opinion of the geologists is expressed in a report on the situation made for the Senate Public Lands committee.

The campaign for we now are getting
contracts from those who joined the
movement earlier in the campaign.
On Nov. 5, the state office received
SO contracts, aggregating 766 acres,
every one of which came from volun-
tary workers; farmers, bankers and
business men who are not a part OF
the regular organization force.
Gas the campaign enters its clos
ing phase, increased opposition from
potato dealers is evident, especially
at shipping points. However, this
influence is helping the movement,
because dealers cannot argue in sup
port of their system when potatoes
are selling for 18 and 20 cents a
bushel and in many cases, buying has
stopped entirely. Our greatest gains
are being made where dealer opposi-
ton is strongest.
Mr.. Rubinow started campaigns in
Chisago and Anoka counties last
week and this week is making SER
les of speeches in the Red River Val
ley.
The North Dakota campaign is
moving rapidly, according to word
from Charles M. Morgan, who has
been placed in charge of the drive
there. A strong state committee is
being organized. This will include
prominent growers, bankers and bus
mess men, from every potato grow
ing county in the state.

Bureau Chief Asks for
Lower Grain Rates
Nothing in Farm Situation to Justify
Present Charges, J. F. Reed Pres
ident of Farm Bureau Says

Reasons why farmers have right
to expect and do expect reduced
freight rates on grain were given to
representatives of the Interstate Com
merce, at a hearing held at Kansas
City on Nov. II by j. F. Reed, pres
ident of the Minnesota Farm Bureau
Federation.
"The cost of shipping hundred
pounds of wheat ESQ miles, the aver
age haul in this country, in 1913, was
10 and a fraction cents" he said.
''The present cost is Is and frac-
ton cents. While freight rates have
been going up, grain values have been
coming down. Land values also have
fallen, if such sales as are being made
are a criterion. The net result is
that farmers are paying, all things
considered, so per cent more for
transporting their grain to market
than in 1918.
eff railroad rates are based on the
value of product, as they should be,
and as they always have been until
recently, farmers have every right to
expect a reduction The farmer is
not concerned with the reasons for
the 1llgU #ITGISIt WILLIS. liz hllOWo
that he has to foot the bill and he
knows that increases were placed up
on his shoulders without consulting
him. Now, with the war period
passed and the farm price level far
below the peak, he expects relief.
The problem of way and means is
one that must be solved by the same
factors that brought about the in
creases. +"
The Kansas City hearing was one
of several that the Interstate Com
merce Commission is holding before
making report on the need for aid
ways of bringing about freight re
duction.
Previous to the Kansas City meet
ing, Mr.. Reed attended national
conference at Chicago, Nov. L6, Of
the various Regional Advisor boards,
which are cooperating with the car
service Division of the American
Railway Association to solve trans
portation problems.

Great Northern Employees
May Become Shareholders
President Budd Announces Arrange.
ment to Help the $4,000 Employees
Buy Preferred Stock

st. Paul, Mimi, Nov. 12-Owner-
ship in the Great Northern Railway
Company is opened to employees b!
the partial payment route as res, 1t
of an arrangement explained in a
statement by President Ralph Budd.
By means of the plan which requires
only SIS initial payment and a
monthly installment at So to be de-
Quoted from wages. Great North
ern employees now are enabled to
purchase the preferred shares of the
capital stock of the big transconti-
mental railroad.
The Great Northern is the first
Northwest railroad to make the pun
chase of stock by its employees avail
able under the partial payment plan.
With the payments thus extended
over long period, large number of
the $4,000 members of the Great
Northern organization, track labor
ers, clerks and officers, are expected
to buy the preferred shares.
All the capital stock of the COM
pany now is in the hands of the
public, there being $4,000 sharehold-
ers, so the company has no stock to
sell but will purchase the stock in
the open market, at the prevailing
price, for the employee as it is ordered
under contract.
1t is emphasized by President Budd
that the status of the employe re-
mains unchanged whether or not he
takes advantage of the partial pay
ment purchasing plan.
"The Great Northern is very proud
of its organization, comprising SO
many loyal and efficient men and
| women, and the directors felt that
the employees will benefit greatly from
this arrangement" said President
Budd.
1.-THE par value of Great Northern
stock is 500 a share and the pres
ent rate of divident SIS share, pay
able semi-annually. Neither the com
pany nor anyone else can tell
whether the market price will go uE
or down so the price of the stock tc
the employee cannot be guaranteed
Nor can there be any guaranty as to
! the future dividend rate as the
amount of the dividend paid neces.
sarily depends on the net earnings
| of the company.
! No employe shall be urged TO Duy
stock but they shall be informed as
to what the return on their invest,
ment will be at the time of purchase
For example, at the present price
! (53) and the present annual dividend
rate 6 per cent?, the investment will
pay more than 9 per cent and en-
ployes will get the benefit of the div
idend on all the stock ordered while
they pay only per cent on the un
paid balance.
Provision is made for the suspen-
sion of payments during absence be-
cause of disability or under author
lied leave; for the termination OF
the purchase contract and the return
of the amount paid, less interest and
selling expense, in instances where

is an important factor in convincing
creamery organizations Of the neces-
sity for a central sales agency without
delay. The plan does not call for
the adjustment of brands already
established, but it does provide for
a trade mark which will identify our
butter when it reaches the consumer.
More than 100 creameries already
have signed the marketing agreement,
Mr.. Mcclure says, and others will
come into the department as quickly
as meetings can be held to have the
plan explained and to take formal ac-
ton.
Efforts on the part of eastern but
ter buyers to block the sales plans
are assisting, rather than hurting the
movement. Since the announcement
that an active campaign against the
sales plan was uncovered, Mr.. Nc
CURE, John Brandt of Litchfielu,
president, and H. F. Meyer, manager
of the sales department, have been
busy attending meetings in all parts
of the state.

New Tests-The animal husbandry
division of the University of Mime
sofa has just started another interest
ing cattle feeding experiment in
continuation of the baby beef fatten-
ing trial which has been under way
the last two winters at University
Farm. This winter 60 purebred and
high grade Aberdeen Angus steer
calves are being fed in six lots of ten
calves each on six rations with the
object in view of fattening them as
baby beef. The principal detectives
of the present feeding trials are to
check some of the results of the ex-
periments of the last two winters and
to try out several new rations and
methods of feeding fattening beef
calves. The following rations will be
fed the several lots:
1. Shelled corn, whole oats, linseed
meal and alfalfa hay.
2. Ground ear corn, linseed meal,
corn silage and alfalfa hay.
8. Shelled corn, linseed meal, corn

The same number of pounds of
oats will be used in lot l as there are
pounds of corncob for lot 2, all other
feeds being the same. Except in lot
4, where the corn is self fed, all lots
will be fed twice daily and will be
full fed on all feeds except linseed
meal, which will be given at the rate
of two pounds per head daily

CHEAP RATES SOUGHT
By DAVID LAWRENCE.

VA Coryrieht. by The San Antonio Light.
81 Washington. ID. G., Oct. ;. - No
Especial session of Congress will be
called TO relieve the farm situation.
Practically unanimous advice has
been given 10 President Coolidge IN the
last three days TO the effect that legis-
lation cannot cure the troubles of the
wheat farmer, but that relief can best
be secured by persuading or ordering
the railroads to reduce freight rates
and generally cut down the cost of pro-
ductiOn.
The President sent for Gray Silver.
legislative representative here OF the
Federation Of Farm Bureaus, and
asked him for his ideas on the agri-
cultural problem.
Mr.. Silver went into conference with
the President just after Howard e.
lott, chairman of the board of direct
ors of the Northern Pacific, had left.
Naturally, the two conferences blended
into each other for Elliott is inter-
ested in preserving and, if possible,
increasing the earnings of his COM
pany, while Mr.. Silver pointed out
that the railroads of the Northwest
must cooperate in helping the farm
ers get their wheat hauled at a lower
price or there may not be any wheat
to haul. in which case there will be
a loss to the railroads of what they
Low have.
Mr.. Silver made it clear that no
special remedies could be devised by
Congress- at this time and that the
cure of the situation already exists in
the machinery of the government.
He declared, for instance. that il
the government could bring down the
cost of nitrates it would Immediately
give the farmer big advantage.
lie said that distinguished engineers
.Ad uetified that nitrates could be
sold to the farmer for as little as D

cents pound. whereas the farmers
were paying Is and 20 cents and
higher for Chilean fertilizer
But such cheap nitrates, he. added,
would come from effective operation of
the Muscle Shoals plant and that the
offer made by private concerns should
be accepted or an alternative ne
vised.
After an Adjustment.
Mr.. Silver said that his organila-
ton is well aware that higher price
for wheat could not be obtained by
government subsidies. but tnat the
American farmer could and would adj
just himself TO world conditions pro-
vided he could bring down the cost AT
home.
He felt that the system of interme-
date credits which had been set up
by Congress. together with orderly
marketing. would help TO keep the
prices from fuctuating at home. but
that basically the biggest reform
must come in the cost OF production.
He believed that the farmer was
quite willing 10 take his chances in
the sale of his surplus abroad provid-
cd he coud make a profit on the home
market and this would be possible
through cheaper nitrates. lower
freight rates and orderly marketing.
Mr.. Silver in reply TO questions con-
corning the farmers interest in inter
national problems, stated that farmers
gernally are anxious that the United
Stats extend its influence so that mar
kets abroad could be restored.
He did not believe the farmers are
isolationists, but would welcome CO.
operation with Europe.
After Mr.. Silver left, Spencer Wey-
mouth, editor of Farm Life, AN IN
diana publication, who also came at
the invitation of President Coolidge
told the chief executive that with the
exception of the wheat-growing farm
er. conditions in the agricultural
world were not as bad as were
painted.
He was doubtful whether higher
tariff would do any good.

Suppose, he said. that a tariff
is imposed and We restrict our acre
age to home markets and then along

some other thing and the tariff is re-
moved:
