What Tomorrow Means to You
BY MARY BLAKE.

Tomorrow's planetary aspects are
decidedly adverse. and continue so un
til sunset. when they become benign
although not actively favorable. Dur.
ing the day the influences will be
more apparent on emotion than on
effort, although it would be unwise
to attempt any task out of the ordi
nary. The probability is that there
will be sensed "grouchiness." and
there will be no desire present to
please or placate. 1mpatience and
irritab bility will assert themselves, and
it will be necessary to exercise self
control in order to counteract such
baneful tendencies. The evening will
ers. and especially for those whose
love has not, up to this time, been
declared in words.
Children born tomorrow are, dur
ing infancy, assured of excellent health
conditions, but the few and infrequent
ailments from which they may suf-
fer will readily yield to treatment
Between the ages of 10 and 10 years
they are liable to experience serious
illness that, while not necessarily
causing alarm, will tax the resources
of patience and skilled treatment TO
the utmost. In disposition, they Will
be tractable. Sincerity will be the
keynote of their characters. and their
loyalty-both to others and to Ideals
of a. high order-will be second
nature to them. They will. while not
neglecting outdoor recreation. be very
studious, and owing to memory re-
tentiveness what they learn Will be
properly assimilated.
If tomorrow is your birthday. your
quick temper often gets you into oil
fcultes, and although your recovery
is as speedy as your spontaneous

YOU have vented your spleen. you

same time, changeable. Win you

not one of your virtues. Underneath
all this YOU possess a very strong
character, and in handling the I'M
mediate task in hand you are force
full and compelling. You love nature
and are especially fond Of water sports
Travel, by sea, makes strong ap-
neal to YOU, and you learn more by
observation than by study. In spite
of your pyrotechnic tendencies you

To Save Fat.

When you accumulate a good deal
of bacon drippinGs o. other meat
fat. in order to keep it from getting
rancid. fry white potatoes in i, to
take out the salt. This won't hurt
the potatoes for use. Then pour the
hot fat in Il larger "'cepracle and
fill to the top with boiling water. Set
in a cool place the Eat will harden
and you can then lift it off. This
method will remove all particles of
food and will make the fat white and
sweet, and it will keep fresh much
longer.

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.
: Just for the Mother.

Every one is thinking about the
tiny baby after it arrives and too
often forgetting entirely about it's
mother. Now the baby can't possibly
be as we'll as it should be if it has a
nervous. irritable, sickly mother, and
to avoid such dire possibilities, the
mother must think of herself.
1t happens so often that after the
mother gets up. following her two
weeks in bed, she feels extraordinarily
frisky. In a few days the unaccus-
toned efforts of taking care of the
baby, of doing housework (Which she
shouldn't do), results in fatigue. back
aches and a general feeling of all
goneness. Then she is sure to think
everything is wrong. This spirit of
depression really tends to keep her
from improving.
In the first place the mother Is not
back to normal until six weeks after
the baby is born. She shouldn't try
to carry on any regular duties, except
to take care of the baby, until then.
That is work enough. The house
won't so to pieces in six weeks. even
if she can't afford help. and it is bet
ter to be slack for six weeks and
then feel strong and well than to be-
come a partial invalid because of
house.
When the mother nurses the baby
she should lie down. She should take
at least one nap a day, when the baby
is asleep, to make up for the sleep she
is sure to lose at night Rest when
the baby is resting and work when he
is awake. A We'll baby doesn't need
to he held and the mother cant sleep
while he is awake even if he is good
But she can do whatever is necessary
in the kitchen or in the way of wash
ing clothes while he is awake.
If she can get out of doors daily
she will be a much better tempered
mother and naturally much health
ier one. Too many mothers try
to get along without rest or eXer-
else or recreation and then wonder
why they always feel so badly. have
heada ches and baCkaches. and are
irritable and nervous. The work of
taking care of a baby shrinks to the
minimum if the mother preserves
her good health by sane care: and
puts the baby on such a regular
routine that most of his time is
spent sleeping. Her cheerfulness
and tranquility are prime essentials
in making her good nurse. and
these don't come to a mother who is
harasSef% by numerous household
cares and who refuses To take time
out for the necessary rest.

Rain-Making.

Rain makers have been plying their
trade from time immemorial. One
method, used by the Indians. Is 10
get out and do a wild dance, and
shake rattles, and say magic words.
1t is very frequently successful; as
often, probably, as the methods OF
most white men. Cannon are some
times fired at clouds to make them
drop their rain. and sometimes they
do drop it, though not necessarily
because cannon were fired at them.
People believe that the reason II
rained so in northern France in the
war was because Of the shooting.
The real answer was that Americans
come from a drier country. 1t rains
most of the time in parts OF western
Europe, in war or peace. The best
rain making method so far tried IS
that used by aviators. Electrlned
sand when scattered through a cloud
by an aviator causes precipitation
(why Is not clearly understood).
This will often dispel a cloud danger
Gus to aviation, but will not cause
enough rain to fall to help agr1cul-
ture much.
Now what do you know about that?

The Right Food Is the Best Medicine

Even though Ziegfeld has an.

the well-curved figure in his chorus
girls, and put the sylphs in the back
row, he does not mean that he is
going in for circus fat ladies as types
of beauty. Such poundage is neither
beautiful nor healthy.
1t would be well for Mrs Avoir-

Wood makes a more romantic, de-
lightful and lively fireplace fuel. but
coal gives an even, hot heat and re-
quires less constant attention.
One hospitable feature of the hob
CRATE is that it embodies n little shelf
where the teapot may stand and the
tea be kept piping hot.
Since we are building so many
houses of the English type just now,
it really seems too bad not to bless
them with little CRATE of truly Eng

Der it has been necessary to do g
lot of travelling and visiting pre-.
pairing for the Annual report
which is due December LIST.
Any number of fine flocks OF
turkeys have been noticed. 1t is
not necessary for anybody to send
out of the county for breeding stock
this year. Some of the best turkeys
in the west have been brought into
this section in the last few years.
and today defendants from these
fine birds can be purchased at a
very reasonable price.
d. j. Robertson, Livestock Spec
ialist from the University, spent
last Wednesday in the county Wis
iting the lamb feeding projects.
He was very enthusiastic over the
progress made to date and pre-
diets a bright future for this
industry in Park County.
Probably the most pleasing
sight over the county at this time
of the year is the extensive fall
blowing that is under way. If we
have a late spring nearly every
farm will be prepared to some ex-
tent.
The growing season is short in
III best of years and every min
ute in the spring counts. Give
us a few more weeks of open fall
and we will be ready.
The Annual County Farm Bur-
a meeting will be held at Sage
Creek this year on December 18th.
this is an all day meeting with q
big lunch at noon. There is a
lot of important business to come
at this meeting besides the an
election of officers.
Park County has the best Farm
Bureau in Wyoming, and with this
to live up to there
should be a big attendance at the
annual meeting.
A number of inquiries have been
regarding the disposal and
use of frozen potatoes. Good po-
tatoes have a certin food value

MAINTAINING VALIDITY
OIL AND GAS PERMITS

The First Assistant Secretary of
the Interior, E. C.. Ffnney. TODAY
expressed himself freely regarding
so-called "validation holes" on oil
n gas permits under the Federal
mineral leasing law. MI. Ffnnev
believes that some permittees are
wasting time and money by drill
ing ineffective and useless holes In
the mistaken idea that they can
tnereoy maintain the validity of
permits otherwise subject to can
collation.. He pointed out the fall
lacy of such action, outlined the
purpose and effective drilling SUBJ
tantially as follows.
A recent number of an oil and
gas periodical contained a short
article describing a miniature drill
ing outfit that had proved very
successful and economical in drill
ing water wells of a few inches in
diameter and a few hundred feet
deep. The article contains the
statement that this outfit "opens
the doors to unlimited possibilities
In validating Government leases in
the Rocky Mountain area at low
cost" This quotation displays a
misconseption of the purpose of the
Federal mineral leasing law and
the requirements of prospecting
permits issued by the Secretary
Of the Interior that is shared by
many permittees and by others in
terested in n way or another in
Oil and gas operations.
The purpose of a prospecting per-
NIT Is bona fide drilling leading to
the discovery of oil or gas, and all
operations that can be construed
to maintain the validity of a per
NIT must serve this purpose. All
prospecting permits provide that
the permittee shall carry on all
operations in accordance with ap-
proved methods and practice and
In compliance with the operating
regulations issued by the Secretary.
This primary requirement is too
frequently overlooked. The prin-
cipal permit recruitment with re-
spect to drilling, expands in the
light of the operating regulations,
are as follows
1. To install a drilling outfit
adequate for drilling to the object

drilling within six months, all I'M

proved in advance by a
tative Of the Secretary. To receive
approval the drilling plan must
provide for a hole of such size, not
less than six inches, that the OBJ
1ective horizon may be reached eff
fectively; and must include a pro-
gram OF casing, cementing, mud
ding and other operations such that
all materials not to be produced

and that oil or gas to be produced
may be recovered effectively and
with a minimum of contamination.
The drilling plan shall be set forth
on a notice OF intention to drill''
which shall be submitted to the ap-
propriate supervisor. oil and gas
operations. Geological Survey. and
receive the approval before drilling
is commenced.
2. To drill at least one well to
a depth of at least 500 feet under
the approved drilling plan within
a period Of a year.
3. To drill at least n well to
a depth Of at least 1000 feet un-
der the approved drilling plan
within a period of two ears.
1t should be clearly understood
that unapproved drilling is no drill
ing at all under the terms of the
permit and that the 500 feet of
hole to be made in the first year
must be a 500 foot beginning on a
well adequately planned.
The requirements of a permit are
simple, definite, and easy for a
bona fide p%rospector for oil and
gas but difficult for a permittee of
a speculative bent who lacks the
substantial financial re-
quired for the drilling of an oil
well. 1t is permittees of the lat
ter class who vainly hope to wall
date" permits by drilling holes too
small with rigs too light and with
scant regard for the regulations
or proper drilling methods and
practice. Such action, instead of
showing diligence sufficient to
maintain the validity of a permit,
is evidence of bad faith and of
an attempt to violate the spirit
while conforming in a measure to
Ia mistaken Interpretation of the
letter of the requirement. Social
ed valuation holes are for the most
part mere holes in the ground that
cannot be considered wells. They
involve a waste of time and money
and ordinarily serve no useful pur-
pose. The Department is unalter-
ably opposed to such waste of re-
sources and will do all that it can
, 1926-11-17

to prevent 1t. Action with respect
to permits involving such drilling
will be favorable only when other
circumstances impel favorable
treatment in spite of the abortive
drilling done.
On the other hand the Depart
lent has acted with extreme len
fence to permittees and whenever
reasonable diligence has been
shown has granted liberal extern
sions Of time within which to be-
gin drilling operations in a proper
manner. If a permittee fails, in
spite of vigorous efforts, to rrange
within the first six months for
beginning the drilling of a bona
tide well, he should either relin-
quish the permit or apply for an
extension of time setting forth in
detail the efforts he has made and
money he has expended in at
tempting to prosecute the purpose
or the permit and the results, if
any, that he has accomplished. A
prolonged effort to carry
out the purpose of the permit must
be evidenced, particularly in re-
gions where drilling is in progress.
Scant consideration--ca be shown
to one who sits idly by, without ex-
penditure of time. effort, or money,
awaiting the results or drilling by
more industrious neighbor.
Every showing of diligence made
will be considered on its merits
and action taken on a liberal

About seventy-five people gathered
and listened to stirring speeches out
lining the plans of the organization.
Thomas M. Bartlett acted as chair
man and introduced Paul Ellsworth as
the first speaker. Mr.. Ellsworth
stressed the fact that this county a.
long with nearly all the others is fac
ing decreased population and de-
crease in land values To overcome
this the Del-Mar-Va Eastern Shore
Association was organized.
Fred P. Adkins, acting president Of
the association, next spoke. He told
how the organization came into being.
T. Harvey Hill also spoke. These men
advanced strong arguments in favor
of Talbot entering the organization.
They pointed out the advantage of
Talbot county, and how it would be
folly for it to remain on the outside
while all the other counties on the
shore were back of it.
During the talks it was stated that
Talbot had lost over 1000 inhabitants
since 1900, and the land values have
decreased in proportion. Eventually
the people in Easton and other towns
will face higher tax rate, due to the
increased cost Of running the county
and to the lesser number Of people to
pay.
Talbot has everything to offer in
the way of attractive home sites. No
ether county on the shore has the
natural beauty or advantages for home
sites. To get the outside world ac-
quainted with these facts is the pur-
pose of the organization. To do it
alone Talbot would fall down, because
it requires too much capital. Combin-
ed the Eastern Shore counties can do
much to put the thing across.
There are factory sites, farm lands,
truck gardens, and home sites galore
on the shore, and those who are look
ing for place where the soil, climate,
and surroundings are all that can be
desired can find no other place on the
Atlantic seaboard to equal the Chesa-
peake Bay territory.
At the meeting it was pointed out
that some of he best writer's have al
ready been seeking material for arti-
cles on the Peninsula. Talbot is in line
now, and only one more Maryland
equity is out of the fold, Cecil. Nearly
$l00,0 900 has been raised so far.
