Observation-Disclosures
NEW DIRECTORS MEET

The new directors Of the Baker
Barnhill-Corey Oil company held
their first meeting Monday evening
and reelected Joe 3. Baker presi-
dent; O. H. Foot, vice president, and
III. G. Newendorp, secretary. The or
" changes on the board at the an
nual meeting held here more than
month ago, was the election Of B. Z.
Gilliland to succeed G. w. Jett. FIR
a time it was believed that Mr.. Jett
succeeded himself and G. Fl. Foot was
the retiring member, but an error
was found in the count that elected
Mr.. Foot and retired Mr. Jett.
It developed at Monday nights
meeting that no production has been
had from any Of the wells for the
past four weeks, the pressure having
gone down to such an extent that it
will be necessary to pump thesewells.
A pumping plant has been installed
with capacity to pump six wells.
This took considerable time, but it
was reported. that the cement has set
sufficiently to start operations prac-
tically at once, and it is expected that
Nos. S,6 and7 will be on the pump
tomorrow or next day, as soon as the
pipes to the tank can be laid. No. 6,
which was shut in for several weeks,
accumulated sufficient gas the last Of
the week to flow rs barrels Of oil when
it was opened up, but the pressure
left shortly after it was opened. It is
believed that when Nos and are
agitated by pumping they will flow
again It may be necessary to pump
some water out Of No. 3, but more is
looked for from this well than any Of
the others. It came in a gusher, but
shortly turned to water It is known
that there IS heavy production in this
well and no end of water was thrown
out when the pressure was heavy
No wells are to be drilled until
thorough test has been made on those
already drilled and have produced,
according to the plans Of the board
Of directors. The company expects to
be again on production BY the first
Of the week. KalispelI Monitor.

hole, and after swabbing, it made15OO

as the production would decline after
flowing for some time until it was
swabbed again which would bring the
production back.

Noted Scot to Judge
Steers at Exposition

Chicago at the Interna
tional Live Stock exposition, to be
held in Chicago from December l to 8,
will have the opportunity of seeing
Walter Biggar of Dalbeattie, Scotland,
Judge the individual street classes
again.
1t will be the fourth time that Mr..
Biggar has crossed the Atlantic in
this capacity. Opinion is that this di-
vision of the exposition requires
fund of knowledge of animal form and
a great deal of care and good judg
ment in exercising it. Ring-side audi.
ences, reporters of the show, and ex-
hbitors themselves are united in Their
upinion that the work has never been
performed more faultlessly than by
this Scottish judge. 1t will evolve
upon him to pick the grand-champion
steer of the show. From $1.10 to $500
pound have been paid for these
grand champion selections of Walter
Biggar, in the auctions of fat cattle
that follow his judging.
A Canadian of note among live
stock circles who will visit the Chi
cago show in the capacity of Judge is
William Dryden of Brooklin, Ontario.
He will serve as one of Il committee
of three to pass upon the Aberdeen
Angus breed, and another ilustrious
Canadian is w. l.. Carlyle, who will
journey to Chicago to tie the ribbons
in the {lvdesdale horse classes, Mr.
Carlyle is the manager of the Prince
of Wales ranch at Calgary, Alberta

CONFUCIUS' GRIP
ON CHINA SLIPS
Policy of Religious Freedom
Dooms Old Creeds.

Marking, China.-Confucian un.
der the nationalist regime, has lost
its last claim to be the state re.
ligion of China.
The Marking government has de-
creed that nothing be done to pre-
vent yeneration to the memory and
teachings of the great sage, but the
old influence Of Confucius has crum.
bled under the weight of modern.
fstic nationalism.
This summary of Markings atti'
tude toward the ancient faith and
code which has nodded Chinese
thought and conduct for more than
two thousand years was given the
Associated Press by direct descend
ant of Confucius who is also a mem
Der of the nationalist government. He
is DR.. Fl. q. Kung (Kung Hsiang-shi)
of the seventy-fifth generation in dl
rect line from the sage, whose Chi.
nese name was Kung Fu-tzu. Doc
tor Kung, alumnus of Oberlin and
Yale universities, is minister of in
dustry and commerce and, while
proud Of his Confucian lineage, is q
Christian.
"Many persons, especially abroad.
enormously conceive of Confucianism
as a religion" said Doctor Kung.
"Confucianism actually is code of
philosophy, standard Of ethical con-
duct for which no claim is made of
divine or supernatural sanction.
However, the policy of the nation
alist government is complete religious
freedom and liberation, and we shall
do nothing to interfere with those
who still worship Confucius.
Certainly we shall do nothing to
cast disrespect on the memory of
this great man, who is venerated as
the great sage and teacher of the
Chinese people"

Mint Farming

A CCORDlNG to one Of Uncle Same
"A publications some 1850 acres OF
peppermint. including about 1000
acres of spearmint, are farmed In the
United States. Two-thirds of this acre
age is in northern Indiana, about one
fourth in southern Michigan-the com
bined area comprising the largest
known peppermint-producing section
in the world. the remainder in Wash.
ington, Oregon and New York.
Certain muck and peat soils seem
best adapted to this culture. Planted
in rows, narrowed when young and
later welded by hand, 1t is harvested
with moving machines Harvest time
ranges from late July to early Septem-
Der, according to weather and crop
conditions. Two to three tons of herb
per acre Is an average yield. The hay
Is distilled in vats-about 325 pounds
of hay producing pound of oil. One
travelling through mint-farming sec.
ton during harvesting time will note
that the country round about it is
permeated by noticeably sweetish
Odor.
The oil brings the money. It is sold
by the pound. The yield may range
from next to nothing to 100 pounds
per acre-the average being from q
to rs pounds The price may fluctuate
from ST per pound in over-supply sea-
sons to S25 per pound In shOrt-crOp sea
sons-the general average being about
$3.50 pei pound.
Formerly. certain quantities of Juicy
mint leaves were used in making q
very celebrated connection rather
widely and fondly known as mint ju-
len. Today, the oil is chiefly used In
flavoring extracts, medicines and cos
metics. Such Of the crop as is ex.
ported normally goes TO England, Ger

Color of Glass.

The bureau of standards says that
the purple color in glass is supposed
to be due to a change of condition
in the manganese content of the glass,
which is coloring oxide under GER
tain conditions. This is supposed to,
be caused by certain rays of the sun
which produce q difference in the de-
gree of oxidation of the manganese,

The case was decided on the crown :

SAME PRESCRIPTION
HE WROTE IN 1892

When DR.. Caldwell started to practice
medicine, back in 1875, the needs for q
laxative were not as great as today.
People lived normal lives, ate plain,
wholesome food, and got plenty of fresh
air. But even that early there were
drastic physics and purges for the relief
of constipation which DR.. Caldwell did
not believe were good for human beings.
The prescription for constipation that
he used early in his practice, and which
he put in drug stores in 1892 under the
name of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
is liquid vegetable remedy, intended
for women, children and elderly people,
and they need just such mild. safe
bowel stimulant.
This prescription has proven its worth
and is now the largest selling liquid
laxative. 1t has won the confidence of
people who needed it to get relief from
headaches, biliousness, fatulence, indi-
gestion, loss of appetite and sleep, bad
breath, dyspepsia, colds, fevers. At your
