Crude oil produced In the United

ly $500 900 900, more than the

oludes only the price paid for the

Total value OF crude oil at the well
in 1889. according to the bureau Of
mines, declined s percent from 1893
TO sl.29i,470.000. despite an increase
in crude oil production: this reflected
a decrease of almost 10 percent tn
the average price per barrel.
Texas operators and landowners, be-
fitting that states leadership in oil
production, split a total of Si7S $780,
600 last year. 81 percent Of the United

second with a S229. 900, 900 income, and
Oklahoma third with sl66 800, 900. The

Average prices decreased with
marked uniformity throughout the
country, except in New York, Penn

creased demand for certain types Of
crude oil brought a substantial in
crease in the average price per barrel
For the United States as a whole the
average 1899 price was sl.02 a barrel
compared with sl.l3 in 1888. This was
the lowest average since 1885, and It's

USUAL ACCIDENTS ARE RESPON-
SIBLE FOR FATALITIES IN
MONTANA
Reports Indicate at Least Half Dozen
More Sportsmen Injured: Several
Shot by Hunters Who Did Not See
Game Animals Before Shooting.

At least SIX persons lost their
lives and = half dozen others were
injured during the general big
game and bird hunting seasons,
according to records at the state
fish and game department. Jack
w. Carney. chief deputy. said fig
ures compiled by him showed six
fatalities, but added final re-
port was to be submitted by dep
uty wardens as to minor and seri-
Gus injuries which may have not
yet been reported.
The toll ranged from drowning to
a fall from a railroad trestle, Carney's
report showed.
Tragedy again appeared in accidents
resulting from hunter mistaking an
other for a game animal, and the
annual loss Of life through cleaning
firearms was again reported.
Perhaps most tragic of circumstances
occurred when William Raymond. IL
year-old Libby boy, died when his
shotgun slipped from his hands as he
held up a duck for a companion to
see.
1t had been his first duck hunt.
Same Old Carelessness
Adrian Burns of Standpoint, Idaho,
was shot through an arm and shoul-
der as he dressed an elk in Mineral
louIllS. n ollOt ~
what he thought was an animal in the
brush.
Ernest Luke of Kalispell suffered
leg and knee wound when another
hunter mistook him for an elk as he
hunted in the Spotted Bear district.
Again mistaken identity resulted in
an accident when Edward Duby OF
Wallace, Idaho, hunting in the Powell
area, suffered severe abdominal
ayntn
thought he was shooting at an elk.
Close Call
Hugh Copenhaver, western Montana
resident, narrowly escaped death when
a highpower rifle bullet split on a
tree limb, grazing his neck and left
thigh. Another hunter mistook Copen-
haver. who was riding horse, for
an elk.
Grover c. Bryan of Big Timber died
shortly after bullet from a 80 caliber
rifle he was cleaning struck him III
the chest.
Duck hunting counted at least one
other fatality when George Eckelberry
of Kalispell drowned as he. waded into
hole Eckelberrys heavy boots and
clothing quickly pulled him to the
bottom.
Benjamin Mohr Of Billings suffered
fatal injury from a .4lO caliber shot
gun when it apparently fell from a
seat. and George Poe Of Joliet suf-
fered a shotgun wound in the left
shoulder when his gun slipped from
his grasp.
Death struck again when Dennis F..
Kohner of Hamilton was killed when
rifle he was cleaning accidentally
discharged.
Most recent death was that Of Al
vim McGettrick, Butte high school
sophomore. who fell from high rail-
road trestle east Of Butte as he hunted
small game.
One Man Lost
Charles Brockway of Superior was
lost for two days in the Fish lake
area, but returned unframed.
Superior was virtually without a
town officer as Brockway. barber,
is also fire chief and justice of the
peace.
Carney pointed to the list and asked
hunters who will yet take advantage
of several open areas in the state for
the hunting of big game to take all
possible precaution to prevent hunting
accidents

c. A. Dylastra. director Of selective
boards consider the classification Of
registrants they should carefully
weigh all questions of dependency and
not contine their investigation to the
dependent status OF wives or children
The director pointed out that a reg
istrant can be deferred on depend
ency" grounds only if his local board
is convinced that a person is de
pendent in fact" upon him. This in
cludes wives as well as ether claimed
dependents, Dykstra asserted. He said:
when local boards investigate
questions OF dependency they must
not confine their inquiry to the status
OF wives or children.
"Selective service regulations clearly
say that dependent may be par
ent, grandparent, brother, sister, or a
person under 10 years OF age, or any
person who is physically or mentally
handicapped, whose support the regis
trant has assumed in good faith.
Support of these dependents is as
important to one man as another
mans support of his wife.
Local boards should always con-
slider this fact in carrying out the
selective service policy of preserving
the American home as a unit"
They should remember also that the
theory Of the dependency defermen'
is that selective service should not
make public charges of dependents
nor even reduce their support when
1t has been reasonable and where the
support was bona fide, Director Dyh-
stra said.
