Strp-mother; his mothcr-in-,aw W,

jeopardiza their future profits in the
effort TO safeguard their present in
terests. 1t is too early TO conclude
whether they will be successful.
Under American mining laws pc
troleum exploitation has been dis
orderly business. When new pool
is discovered it is generally wild
scramble for oil among adjoining
property owners Where the land is
sub divided the chase is widest. The
, oil is produced in haste. regardless
of the condition of the market, each
, owner feeling that haste pays the
| best dividends considering there is
no telling when the supply may give
out. Timc-limits upon leases OF the
land also aid in this rapid exploita-
ton.
All Of which the producers are
trying TO change with view of
raising the prices above the level
they have been. Since last fall there
have been six price cuts, and the
final reduction carried the average
grade of oil down to s105 a barrel,
as compared with $2.37 prior to No
vember of last year. There has been
no pro rata reduction in the retail
price, SO far as can be determined.
The securities of oil companies have
shown a decline of s5G0,O00, 900
since 1926, however, and this is one
Of those little troubles which it is
sought to remedy.
What is being done, or attempted,
is to cause the public to pay at
least s560,0O0,o0o more for its gaso-
ine-if prices can be raised suffi-
ciently-and cause the oil securities
to go up that amount.

@, How does an electric fuse
function?
A. A fuse is a piece Of metal
having low melting point, encased
in an incombustible casing. By
varying the size of the metal, fuses
are made to carry various amounts
of current and will melt when the

placed in a circuit at the point
where the current enters it. When
the current gets too strong the fuse
melts and automatically opens the
circuit.
