A large amount of good H pay sand is encountered and a good M flow of gas is usually secured with H the oil. This Trenton rock in the || Berne field, according to geologists, ■ is the same pay horizon that has II made the famous Lima, Findlay, || Bowling Green and other noted west■l ern Ohio fields, as well as the MunIl cie, Pennville, Hartford City, Hot- || mien, and other well known fields of || eastern Indiana. Wells fonnd in the || Trenton Rock formation are known II for their longevity. It is predicted II that oil will be produced in this field | vJf tue next 25 years or more. I Trenton Rock is known to be 800 || feet in thickness and drillers think || there is a good chance of getting proll duction at a greater depth. The wells II here have heretofore only been drilling l| ed into Trenton about 50 feet. As II present there are 55 or more new proIl Anting wells in the Berne fields and 11 not one has been found a dry hole, I | although a number have produced gas II onl >'. I The oil produced in the Berne field is light green in color and of high gravity, with a paraffin base. The Indiana Pipe Line Company transports the oil and the Ohio Oil Company of Findlay. Ohio, is purchasing the bulk of the oil. Os interest, too, is the cost of drilling and producing in the Berne field. According to the best information obtainable, a well usually costs approximately $2,500 each. John Halfer of Joliet, 111., and J. 8. Randall, of Berne, expect to start drilling for oil on the Carl Stanley farm in Wabash township as soon as weather permits. They intend to put down five wells. — o Funds For Inspections Os Schools To Be Provided Indianapolis, lad.

TREASURY TO SEEK TAX GUT Congress To Be Asked To Authorize Tax Cut Os More Than $200,000,000 Washington, April 12. — (United Press) —The treasury is certain to ask congress next December to authorize a tax cut of more than $200,00(1,000. it was learned authoritatively today. A surplus of more than $500,000,000 is predicted for the current fiscal year and Acting Secretary of the Treasury Mills estimated a surplus of at. least $175,000,000,000 for 1928. Mills pointed out that the next fiscal year would be almost as prosperous in government revenue as the present period. He said that in addition to ordinary revenues some SIOO,000.000‘would come, into the treasury from the sale of government-held rail road securities and about $80,000,000 would be collected in back taxes. Joseph McCoy, actuary of the treasury, has begun preparing tables showing what taxes can be reduced without serious loss of revenue. McCoy believes the so-called nuisance war taxes, such as taxes on admissions to amusement places, taxes on club dues, and the automobile excise taxes could be repealed. o Card of Thanks We wish to thank the neighbor*: and friends for the kind deeds and acts they have done during the sickness and death of our dear father m l for the beautiful floral offerings, the comfort.ng words and sympathy i f our Minister, and to the quartet and Sunday school class for their sevrices rendered.

LOSS OF TEETH Loss Os Molars Due To Ignorance Or Neglect Chicago, April 12 (United Press) Von will bo surprised, probably, if yon make it a point to notice the month and tooth of the fifty or one-| hundred people you see closely enough to bo able to observe them well. Notice ihem especially when they are talking or laughing. ! Nearly all of those who have reach-' ed adult life have more or less defects, or loss of teeth. Even a greatmany young boys and girls not yet grown have lost part, and some , of them m arly all of their teeth. Occasionally, one is found who has perfect and beautiful teeth. Why the difference? The importance of the subject will bo appreciated more If you realize the fact that practically all of them could have the same kind of perfect teeth, had they known and practiced simple methods of oral hygiene. Many have defects of their teeth which may make it more difficult, to save them against the usual loss, than others; but barring extremely rare exceptions of individuals who may have inherited. or who may have acquired soft teeth, the right kind of care would have saved them. Almost all loss of teeth is due to ignorance or neglect. Practically all loss of teeth is due to caries (decay), or to pyorrhea. Caries results entirely from pactrial decomposition of food particles, or food substances that are retained in the mouth, and pyorrhea is largely the result of the same thing. If all food is thoroughly removed after meals, no decay of the teeth occurs. Anybody who has good teeth can keep them good thoroughout a long life, simply by brushing and thoroughly rinsing the mouth after meals so as to remove absolutely all food, whether in the form of food particles, or food in solution. As a matter of fact, if this is done only once a day, at night before retiring, it accomplishes almost thorough preservation of the teeth. Frequent dental service is necessary, however, to insure that decay does not start in spite of our best efforts. Cabbage plants, ice cream, soft drinks, all kinds of fresh meats. Open evenings and Sundays. Miller & Deitsch, phone 164. 86tf _Weak stomachs cause Biliousness If you ar? often bilious, try thia honnt treatment.

If after the mixture has been filtered a pearlrreani colored sediment fortm ini the bottom of the container it is an almost certain indication of pure maple syrup. If the sediment or filtrate is a deep brown, however, he said, that li an Indication that brown sugar has been added to "cut" the syrup, or that the composition is merely sugar and artificial flav. ring. Somelin.es there is no sediment, ’that Is dee to the syrup being made of granulated, or refined sugar and maple ext-act. The ab.ience of sediment is cxniained, Koehne said, by
