FIND TRACES OF OIL ALONG BED OF RIVER IN PHILIPPINE ISLANDS (By Associated Press) MANILA, P. I., Jan. 1. Discovery of oil seepage along the bed of the Montalban river, about 30 miles east of Manila, has led to the filing of a number of applications for exploratory leases with the bureau of lands. The discovery was made by Dr. Roy E. Dickerson, representing a California petroleum company. The bureau of lands is expected to begin soon the work of making preliminary surveys which are necessary before the applications for lease can be approved. She application made by the California company covers nearly one-half of the province of Rizal. These applications, if approved, will allow theapplicants to make geological surveys within the areas applied for, but will not involve any property rights. NEW BABY (Continued from Page One.) of the celebration from the viewpoint of aridity, moisture and wind, seemed to leave New York somewhat drier than other places, but turbulent. Some Cities Wet New Orleans, San Francisco and Oklahoma City reports place in the windy or noisy division, while St. Louis, Chicago and Atlanta are described as "soaked." Minneapolis with 60 arrests for drunkenness and 23 others for prohibition violation; St. Paul with 29 arrests, Kansas City with 50 arrests 35 of them for intoxication; Dallas described as the "wettest New Year" since Volsteadism; Seattle "the wettest" since state-wide prohibiton classified themselves in the moisture laden area. NEW YORK, Jan. 1. Federal prohibition agents and New York police joined hands early today in what was declared to be the first successful attempt to dry up New York City during New Years celebration. Concentrating their work on Broadway and nearby streets, they raided practically every cafe, restaurant and cabaret and arrested at least one hundred persons for alleged violations of the prohibition laws. More than two hundred federal agents, many from Washington and other outside cities, paiticipated in the raids. Among the better known places visited were Shanley's, the Palais Royale, Moulin Rouge, the Plantation, Monte Carlo restaurant, Ambassador i restaurant, Strand Roof aud Gypry Land. The West 47th street police station, where most of the prisoners were taken, presented tumultuous scenes in the early morning hours. Police and dry agents apparently battled each other for precedence in booking prisoners that they might go and bring in more. Many professional bondsmen were on hand as well as the customary bondsmen for restaurants and cabarets. Held Without Bail The federal prisoners were all held without bail for examination tomorrow morning. Most of the police prisoners provided bonds for a hearing today. What the prohibition agents said was one of the most profitable of their raids was made at Shanley's restaurant at Broadway and Forty-third street. Acting Prohibition Director Yellowley and his assistant, John A. Mnrphy, supervised this sally. When all the lights in the place went out at the stroke of midnight, several dry agents entered without attracting noticeable attention, made their way to the kitchen and searched the ice box, where, they eay, they found a large quantity of champagne, beer and wines. Several arrests were made. 100,000 Entertained According to the Hat el Men's association, the hotels entertained more than 100,000 persons last night. The bells of Grace church failed to ring in the New Year for the Tirst time in more than 40 years. At the church. It was said that the organist was ill and the bells were not in a working condition. As New Years eve also was Sunday night, there were many more watch ,night services in churches throughout

Farmers of Abington

Meet Friday Evening ABINGTON, Ind., Jan. 1. An oyster supper, followed by an address by Rev J. J. Rae during the program afterward, will be the attractions at a spe cial meeting of thfe Abington town ship faimers' association, Friday eve ning, Jan. 5. Plans for the coming year also will be discussed. the city. From Trinity wnere the services began at 11:15 o'clock, carols were broadcast by radio. A watch night service was also held at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, among other churches. Careless celebration of the new year by persons with firearms resulted between 11:55 last night and 12:10 this morning in the fatal wounding of one man and a child and the shooting of at least six or seven other persons. ST. LOUIS. Jan. 1. Twe men were shot and wounded, a woman was injured and a barrage of chairs, glassware, plates, knives and forks were hurled promiscuously in a riot which occurred at the rashionabie Hotel Chase, in the west end section of the city early today, when guests in the main dining hall objected to the intrusion of a prohibition enforcement agents and a squad of policemen who were searching for liquor. No arrests were made in connection with the disorder, which started when dry enforcement officers commenced lifting table covers and searching for liquor. Failing to find any of the contraband, the officers first were applauded, then hooted and jeered, and finally the rumpus was in full swing. It lasted only a short while. The Chase hotel, like all other leading hostelries and restaurants reported record-breakin? reservations for the celebration of the New Year. The proprietor of the Chase reported 2,600 reservations. A dozen arrests for Aiolation of the Volstead act were made by the dry law agents and police who patrolled the various public places where celebrations were held. Whiskey and other liquors were confiscated in several instances. Gus. O. Nations, local chief of prohibition agents, previously had announced he would make this year's revelry the driest ever known in SL Louis. KANSAS CITY, Jan. 1. Although downtown cafes, hotels and cabarets could not accommodate great crowds last night, prohibition officers said that there was no jess liquor consumed here than on any New Year's since national prohibition went into effect. The celebrators were merry but. for the most part, sober, the officers said. About 50 persons were arrested, 35 of whom were accused of being intoxicated. The others were held on

chargesof carrying concealed weapons j townships and the executive commitand firing them within the city limits, tee and county farm bureau officials

MEMPHIS, Jan. 1. The new year

was welcomed noisily in Memphis, the;al mail boxes before the drive opens ofstreets in the business section being j tic-ally and the work is to be concen-

thronged with merry makers until long after midnight. Prohibition officials reported that, so tar as they could learn, few violations of the prohibition laws occurred, although close watch was kept on midnight parties at the hotels and restaurants. Little disorder was reported by police and the number of arrests was the smallest on New Year's eve in many years. ATLANTA, Ga., Jan. 1. The New Year's celebration was a thoroughly "soaked" one in this section, rain falling from early yesterday morning, until early this afternoon. Whistles blew and a few persons braved the inclement weather to make a feeble attempt to usher out the old year with tin horns. Prohibition enforcement agents reported the night passed quietly with no raids on their program. ST. PAUL, Jan. 1 More than a score of men were taken from downtown cafes early today in raids by federal agents on New Year liquor parties. They were lodged in the county jail. The agents raided one soft drink parlor and arrested the proprietor. MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 1. Sixty arrests for drunkenness and disorderly conduct by police and raids by federal agents on 18 soft drink establishments with 23 arrests, marked the coming of the new year here. Abort 30.000 Americans are permanently buried in cemeteries of allied nations.

The Farm and the Farmer By William R. Sanborn

FARMERS NOT MENDICANTS Prof. David Friday ot the Michigan Agricultural college, addressed two economic associations at Chicago recently, and his " talk caused some comment because his reasoning was out of line with that of men who ordinarily discuss business and rural economics before such gatherings. His talk was made before the joint meeting of the American Economic and Farm Economic associations and it was the farmers' end of the problem that he attempted to illuminate. The professor began by stating that farmers are better off financially today than at any time in the years between 1900 and 1910. He said, also, that it is his opinion that cutting the cost of future production will do fanners more good than legislation. He maintains that farming is not done as efficiently as it should be, taken as a whole, and that this fact explains the major part of the troubles of this great industry. Having thus opened up he proceeded to say that: "It is the inefficient units with which the great mass of farmers are still operating, and the inefficient methods which are employed by fully one-half of the 6,500,000 farmers that are the chief causes of distress." He gave it as his opinion that: "The intelligent, practical and successful farmer does not need aid from the government. It will be noted that he emphasized "successful" and intimates that such men can paddle their own canoes, which, in every line or dusiness is true. It is not the business of the government," he said, "to legislate in behalf of any class of citizens because they are engaged in any specific calling, no matter how essential the calling may be to the neds and comforts of civilization. Farmers Not Impoverished Since "legislation can neither plow nor plant" this rural economist believes that if the farmers of America are to correct their troubles they must begin at home. In his summing up he said: "The free and independent farmers of this country are not impoverished. They are not mendicants; they are not wards of the government to be treated to annuities. They are the representatives of the oldest, most honorable, and most essential occupation of the human race." h will be observed that Prof. Friday overlooks world conditions, the loss of foreign markets, the deflation of farm prices out of all reason as compared with as much the farmer Is forced to buy. As to legislation for the farmer he seems to forget that we have tariff legislation to protect the manufacturer, legislation to help the railroads, legislation for bankers and for land banks and federal reserve institutions 'in fact for almost everybody and relating to almost everything. Then why not for the assistance of the farmer to tide him over the period of strain and stress? Why' not? Great Cargo of Apples. The largest single shipment of apples this season from the Pacific coast has just reached New York City. It arrived by steamer and came through the Panama canal, in a ship equipped with cooling rooms. The cargo of this single vessel was 84,714 boxes, and would have filled 113 freight cars if sent east by rail. The saving over that sort of a freight bill was tremendous. It may be that a rge part, or even all of this cargo will be exported, as our exports of apples are now very heavy. The exports, of this country and Canada up to Doc. 16 were 1,000,800 barrels and 1,802,300 boxes. A summary of the cold storage holdings of apples for the country on Dec. 1, shows 4.356,000 barrels, as compared with 1.979,000 barrels on the same day last year, and 7,091,000 boxes, as against 11.281,000 boxes on the same day last year. The Union County Drive. The farmers of Union county are putting on a membership drive becinning on Wednesday, Jan. 3. Prelimin ary meetings have been held in all the

udLtu in a snort ana not campaign, this having proven to be the best and most successful plan of procedure in various county and state campaigns . .1 i i ior iarm Dureau members. There was a notable gathering of business men and financiers in Chicago last October and the result of the meeting was the appointment of a committee, the "Chicago Business Men's Committee on Prosperity for Agriculture." The committee has two slogans: "Permanent business prosperity is based on permanent agricultural prosperity" and the second is: "Business and agriculture are interdependent." The Ship Subsidy We believe that George Weymouth, editor of Farm Life, voices the sentiment of numerous editors of the rural press when he tells his readers that he has been just a bit reticent in telling his views on that subject. "That is," he says, "to some extent a political and controversial question, and we try to avoid controversy. Like a good many other folks we are instinctively opposed to subsidy. It is a mean-sounding word. Perhaps it is unfortunate that it became connected with the government's program for encouraging our merchant marine. "We want to see the American flag on the high seas. We are in favor of using our own ships to carry our own mails and our own cargoes. If it be necessary, in developing this program to give American-owned and American-manned ships the prefer-

ence when it comes to making contracts, it is hard to see where objection can be reasonably taken especially as we are assured by the president that this means saving money rather than spending it "We find it difficult to be hardboiled about the subsidy bill. We think that it may be a good thing, and take it for granted that the men who sponsor it so stoutly are actuated by honest motives. They know more about it than we do, and they believe the subsidy is necessary." Hens Need Exercise. The statement that hens need exercise isn't original. Not at all. It comes to us from a poultry fancier. Our own experience is that hens will do their own exercising as long as it is daylight, if given half a chance. This man says: "The old hens, the ones that are to lay the hatching eggs (and we hope no one will use pullet eggs for hatching) ought to be given plenty of exercise. This increases the "hatchability" of the eggs and makes the resulting chicks more vigorous. The pullets need to be kept up for high egg production; the old hens need to be let out for good, hatchable eggs." The same authority suggests the need for and use of a "catching crate," which he maintains that every chicken owner needs. This is a crate two feet wide, three feet long and 18 inches high with a door that slides up at one end and a trap door in the top. When it is necessary to cull the flock, this can be set up against the hen exit to the house, the sliding door lifted up and the crate run full of hens. These can then betaken out through the trap door on top. This is equally handy for culling or for dipping the flock for lice and the catching crate is valuable in which to put the "broodies." If the sides of the crate are enclosed with wire the hens will drive into it more readily and it will be more durable. The Negro Farmer. About 16 years ago the first negro agricultural demonstration agent was employed to aid his own race in the south. There are now 285 negro men and women agents doing this work and under their direction more than 14,000 negro farmers and their families are following approved practices in farming, gardening and in the care of their homes. It will be readily seen that the work of fhe extensionists in this particular field is of great value to the colored farmer and to colored com munities. In view of the number of

negroes employed ia agriculture in soisooos: all tarm tools, many states it is to be hoped that the i H- c- Slick three miles north and number of teachers of their own raceiwest of Hollansburg, four miles south

will shortly be largely increased. BROTHER (Continued from Page One ) the parked car may have obscured his view of the approaching interurban or that he may have turnel to speak to his companions and tailed to notice the on-coming car. The heavy interurban crashed into the sedan before Fulle could steer it off the car tracks. The traction car struck the left sido of the sedan on which Fulle and his sister were sitting, and ripped the body from the chassis. The automobile was tossed over to the side fo the road by the impact where it crashed against a teleghone pole. Three in Rear Seat. Helen Fulle, Wickett and Miss Hall were occupying the rear seat of the sedan. A Victrola was being carried in the folding front seat beside the driver, Herbert Fulle.
