OIL MEN OBSERVE
BAN ON EXPANSION
Obey Oklahoma Order, But
Legality Is Doubted in
Area Affected.

BY the Associated Press.
OKLAHOMA CITY, July 23.-Oil
operators In the Seminole field of Okla
homa were reported today to be OBJ
serving a temporary order Of the State
Corporation Commission prohibiting
drilling and shooting of wells in GER
tain parts Of the field, although sharp
difference of opinion as to the legality
of the commissions action had devel--
oped.
c. c.. Childers, member of the COM
mission, announced he would not sign
the order, issued last Thursday by the
two other commissioners, Fred Cap
shaw, chairman, and Frank Carter.
Van Avoid Waste.
Childers declared he did not believe
the commission should take any action
as long as operators could handle,
without waste. all of the oil produced
in the field, which is producing about
one-fifth of the total output OF the
Nation.
No efforts had been made to test the
authority of the commission, although
a protest had been filed by the Gypsy
Oil Co., declaring the order uncon'
stitutional.
The attitude of authorities and oil
interests seemed to be that the order,
returnable August 5. was temporary
and that it would stand until perma-
nent regulations are attempted.
Experts Testify.
Oil experts testified before the COM
mission that excessive production in
the Seminole field had upset market
conditions and that waste was prob
able, unless some means were used to
force all of the operators there to
abide by decision of II companies to
limit the output.

BY HOMER WATERS

THERE is nothing so exasperating to
the automobile driver who loves
trouble or is anxious to go to Heaven,
as the careful driver. If it wasn't
for the latter there would be no au-
tomobile accidents or pedestrian
problem, for in just a few weeks all
motor cars would be in the ditch and
the drivers in eternity.
That the careful driver constitutes
a serious hmdrance to the ascent or
descent of the fellow in a hurry, is
proved by the fact that with more
than 2O,00O,000 automobiles and
trucks in the United States, only 21,-
600 persons were killed and 100000
hurt during 1925 This is shameful
resord, for at this rate it will take
some of us 1000 years to reach
Heaven via the automobile route.
In order that rules and regulations
may be established for the extermina-
ton of the careful driver, it will be
well to analyze the causes for motor
car accidents and determine the best
means for promoting an increase.
From statistics recently compiled
by Robbins B. Stoeckel, commissioner
of the department of motor vehicles
for the state of Connecticut, it is seen
that inattention takes first place
among all the causes for motor ac-
cidents, failure to grant right of way,
second place; and skidding, third
place. These three being the easiest
way out, all motorists should practice
them on every occasion. Rule No. 1
therefore, may be: Never pay atten-
tion to your driving or where you are
going. The girl on the side walk
with four garters-one pair to hold
up her stockings and another pair to
hold up traffic, are so much more in

Butter and Egg Men
Prosper i'm Georgia

Atlanta, Ga.-The prosperity of
the butter and egg man has not been
pictured for musical comedy purposes
only. Truth is that the butter and
egg man, if he is a wise bird, does
have enough money to 60 to the cities
and get fleeced by the city slickers.
Last year, figures received at the
department of agriculture show, the
income of all the butter and egg men
exceeded that of the wheat farmer,
who with this intricate machine and
large organizations give an impress
sion of opulence. The butter and
egg man sold 81 ,25O, 100000 worth of
stuff to the American consumers last
year, which was an increase of $50
millions over the previous year.

DESPA|RED OF HELP
FOR RHEUMATISM
Then found simple treatment
that gave immediate relief

For years prominent man of Town
send, Va, suffered the most torturing
pain from rheumatism. When he lay
down atnight he could not sleepfor the
aching in joints and muscles. Then he
began using Sloan's Liniment and it
gave him relief at once.
II want to say that Sloan's is the
greatest rheumatism medicine that is
on the market today. I tried every
medicine that was recommended to
me but Sloan's is the only one that
did me any real good" he writes.
Sloan's gives real help because it
doesn't just deaden the nerves: BY
stimulating the circulation, it helps
the body to clear out the poisons that
are causing the pain.
Just apply lightly without rubbing.
Right away you feel gentle glow of
warmth and comfort, and in short
time the pain stops. Get bottle to-
day. All druggists-35 cents.

Profits Are Shown
Growing Pine Trees

Atlanta, Ga.-Grow pine for prof
it is the latest suggestion made public
here by government agents as COM
ING from the national departme ent Of
agriculture.
The most profitable use that can
be made out of cut-over pine land
is to plant it with pine trees, it was
stated. Much of the land, it is claim
ed. is unsuited for any other growth.
Long-leaf pine can be worked for
turpentine from the age of 20 to 40
years.
If turpentining is properly done,
the loss from death of trees or from
lowering the grade of the lumber
product is very small, the government
agents stated. At 40 years the trees
may be cut for timber. An acre OF
long-leaf pine, 40-year trees, Will
Weld about ten thousand feet board
measure.
Forty years or even twenty years,
make long period for an individual
owner to lok forward in for return
upon an investment, and the policy
of laying a foundation for ones
erandchildren's prosperity is not gen
erally followed in this country, but
the companies that own large tracts
which they have depleted of their
timber may we'll consider and act
upon the departments advice, as
some already are doing, the govern
ment agents said.

safety islands, or other cars. This is
one of the easiest ways to extermi-
nate yourself and others.
Rule No. 2. Never grant the
right of way. Why in the name of
great hospital bills any one should
expect you to grant the right of way
is one of the mysteries of life. Fore
ing the passing motorist on to the
curb or into the ditch only proves
that you possess real will power and
should be respected.
Rule 8. Because tire chains great
ly minimize skidding these should be
kept in the tool box. A chained
wheel gathers no damage suits, says
the chief of police. Obviously, such
statements are propaganda for safety
and should never be given serious
consideration by motorists who enjoy
wearing black crepe. The extent of
such insidious propaganda is appall-
ing. Several organizations such as
taxicab companies have recently
adopted the slogan, "There can be no
compromise with safety" To coun-
teract this, all motorists seeking to
shorten life should adopt the slogan,
1--WE have to die eventually, why not
now" There are few thrills like
those of helplessly riding in car
that is skidding, and utterly beyond
your control. Your heart sinks and
your stomach becomes vacuum, and
there is always the satisfaction of CIV
ing the poor undertaken or coroner
something to do.
Rule 4. Always drive on the
wrong side of the road. This denotes
excellent judgment on your part and
contributes to the good nature of the
approaching motorist.
Rule 5. Never look back when
you shift into reverse. If there is a
little child or an elderly woman there
it is their fault.
Rule s. Never signal when you
turn or stop and always be sure to
cut in as closely as possible when
passing another car. Doing this al
ways gives you the desired trouble.
Rule Z. Be sure that you drink a
large quantity of booze before start
inc to drive. One natural born fool,
one pint of bad gin, and one high
powered motor car is mixture that
will invariably make itself known to
St. Peter. All that is necessary is to
soak fool in gin, place in the car and
let go. After due time remove the
wreckage, place in box lined with
satin, and garnish with flowers.
Rule 8. Never let an opportunity
slip by to pass another car while on
curve. 'S' curves are particularly
we'll suited to results, since an 5
nearly always stands for suicide.
Rule 8. Always pass standing
trolley car at full speed. The traffic
COD at the corner will never misun
derstand your intention, and since
everyone alighting from the car faces
forward, thus having their backs to
YOU. such action contributes to the
revenue of florists, as well as the
business of police.
Rule. 10. By all means make
every effort. to beat the train to the
grade crossing. You should worry
if YOU should hit the train. 1t doesn't
belong to you-anyway you'll never
live to pay the damage suit.
