no.nccd by the United States Bureau OF
Mines compared with production of
7.6 barrels in 1923 from $4,000 wells.
The 1929 output rate varied from as
little as a fifth of barrel per day ex-

borings to the top record Of 161 barrels
per day made by the average well In
West Texas.
Pennsylvania, the State which first
fostered petroleum production, was still
the possessor of the largest number Of
oil wells last year, credited with 80,32O

Six months ago the average re- tail price for these commodities was the lowest since December, 1917. Figures on retail prices will not be computed again until February, but statisticians of the labor department point out that the trend has been downward since last summer.
 Using 100 as the index number for prices prevailing in 1926, the wholesale price of all commodities dropped to S2.6 in October this year.
 Figured another way the 1926 dollar had purchasing power Of St.2l q few weeks ago. In October, 1929. the same dollar would buy only s1.03 worth Of goods.
 Food, men and women's clothing. household furnishings, fuel and lighting cost less. Surveys made by business bureaus in some of the larger cities show a drop of as much as 70 per cent in retail prices since 1929.
 The reduction in dresses is re- ported as ranging from 10 10 80 per cent, of fur coats from 90 10 40 per cent, or shoes from to 23 per cent and Of hosiery from to 90 per cont.
 Mems suits and overcoats were said 10 have dropped in price from 10 20 per cent.

 Government experts in forest pathology say there is no hope of eradicating the blight, at least with methods now known.
 They do hope, however. to repair some of the damage by importing a blight resisting species of chestnut tree from China and Japan which may take the place of the American chestnut. and which perhaps may be crossed with the American species 10 produce tree immune to the blight and at the same time somewhat similar to the American species.
 The method being adopted is somewhat similar to fighting dis ease in the human body by vaccina- ton, as the Asatic chestnut trees have been inoculated against the blight by being subject to it over a longer period.
 Large scale planting of the Aslat- ic species is being undertaken in North Carolina. Plans are made for planting 5000 seedlings on public lands where their growth may be checked frequently.

 Record Depth
 With the vessel rlgged for div ing, all stations manned and flood valves and vents tested, the diving signal was given and we started down, We sank with two or three stops at different depths to allow readings to be taken to see how much the hull gave in. Finally we reached the record depth Of "sS3 feet and the hull withstood this test. After about 10 minutes We rose to the surface.
 Many people believe that there is some discomfort in these deep dives, or for that matter all dives. There is no noticeable difference on the inside Of the boat from that on the surface. The condition IS purely mental

Martha Washington's Figure
May Reappear During

that many women of the country have
been urging the Postmaster General to
return her. Post once Ouc1alS polnC

Historic Stamps Also Demanded.
To complaints of the women that the
American Indian might have been re-
moved from the f4-cent stamps or the
buffalo from the 30-cent ones, instead Of
taking Martha Washington from the 4
cent kind, the officials argue that the
removal of these other subjects would
cause dissatisfaction among persons
who are continually urging more stamp
recognition of Americas scenic and his
toric subjects.
While her husband and Benjamin
Franklin held serene sway on all regular
United States stamps from 1908 until
1922, Martha Washington has had a
varied stamp career. She first appeared
