The Barton Bedtime Stories
THE BIRDS ARE UP TO TRICKS
By JOHN BARTON
(Copyright, 1921, by The Associated Newspapers)
MALTY KITTEN and Thunderpaws the Skunk were certainly puzzled. It seemed natural enough when the kind old rabbit asked them not to chase a bird with a broken wing. But they'd seen three of them in their walk through the grassy field between the Big Marsh and Malty's cabin. And they weren't home yet. What could be the matter with their wings?
Malty Kitten's mother could have told them, and if Thunderpaws had been a wild old skunk he'd have known, but down by Dr. Muskrat's Pond he didn't get much experience in bird hunting. So they talked it over as they went along. They kept coming closer and closer to the milkweed stalk where they'd seen the last one start up.
What was queerer yet, the bird didn't flutter off. She kept coming closer and closer to them, yet she was waving her wings despairingly, and shrieking for her mate. "Killdeer, Klide—ee—er!" just like the ones who lived by the pond when they were very excited.
"It's a good thing she isn't as big as a heron," remarked Malty. "She'll got suddenly well again. She circled up into the air and went off screaming as if her heart would break.
Malty stood still, turning his head all round to watch her. His jaw dropped with surprise. But Thunderpaws was looking down. "Hey! Look out where you put your clumsy paws-" he cried.
That brought Malty to earth again. There, right under his nose, in a little saucer of bare clay, were four eggs. They weren't green like the duck's he used to snuggle with back at Tommy Peele's barn, or blue, like Bobby Robin's or white and round like Bobby said he'd find that egg-thief of a crow's. They were pointy as Thunderpaw's nose, and pale earth-tan, with little black speckles on them.
"Eggs," explained the skunk. "That's what alled all the birds' wings. They wanted us to chase them so they could lead us away from their nests. They were playing a trick on us—the smart things."
"And the old rabbit was playing a trick on them when he made us promise not to hurt them," squealed Malty. Then he said thoughtfully. "Maybe he wanted to see if we'd eat the eggs. Pashaw, I'd rather have a mouse any time. Come along."

HANGING PROGRAM
HAS FOUR NAMES
SACRAMENTO, May 26. — The state's hanging program as presented by Warden Johnston of St. Quentin prison to Harry Frazier, executive secretary to Governor Stephens shows five men are condemned to die.
The condemned men, now awaiting death at the state prison, with their dates of execution, are:
George C. Williams, June 3.
Simon Ruiz, June 10.
Alfred Ellis, July 22.
W. L. Smith, August 19.
Arthur O. Davis, alias William Henry Norris, is appealing his case to the higher courts. However, he is still under sentence of death.

MILLION A DAY IS KEEPING SHERIFF LONG DISTANCE
WASHINGTON, May 26—Private American investors now are "grubstaking" foreign industry and foreign governments at the rate of $1,000,000 a day through purchase of bonds, stocks and other securities, according to estimates made by New York bankers which have reached government officials here.
Dollars are flowing abroad in a steady stream in search of hope for large dividends. The stream began immediately after the outbreak of the great war and has continued ever since almost without break. During the last twelve months, approximately $350,000,000 has been loaned to foreign borrowers, despite the nationwide economic depression in the United States.
American dollars now are building docks and packing houses in South America, municipal waterworks and tram lines in cities of Switzerland and other European countries, elevators in Canada, and factories in France. And the dollars that are working abroad are not the dollars of only American capitalists. In large proportion they were invested only after having been saved from wage and salary envelopes. Through the Edge law the foreign trade and banking corporations now being organized in many parts of the country, every American who can save a dollar is being given the chance to get his opportunity at foreign investment. If he so chooses.
At the beginning of the great war, the United States owed European investors approximately $2,000,000,000. This was money which Europeans loaned during the big expansion period that began in 1890. It was represented by stocks in mines, railroads and manufacturing plants. It paid more than $80,000,000 a year to the foreign owners in interest charges and in dividends. Soon after the war, Europe began to find herself badly in need of enormous credits in the U.S. Gradually, the $2,000,000,000 came back to this country to help pay Europe's rapidly mounting debt here. The United States had earned enough to buy back all the foreign interests in
News Notes of the Oil Fields
The Brea Canyon Oil Company's No. 32 sprung a surprise and came in a little ahead of time. Drilled to 3200, with 8 inch set and water test made preparations for bringing the well in were underway when all of a sudden No. 32 decided to come in unadvised. Late Saturday evening a terrific gas blow out opened the well, and not until three days later was the well under perfect control. The well is still making a large amount of gas, and the oil is just beginning to start. On account of the danger attending the blow out all work on two other wells drilling on the property had to be suspended. No. 32 is still going down, the log this week showing 4150, sandy shale, and No. 2-A is drilling at 2565 in shale.
The Columbia Oil Producing Company will soon have a new producer on the Orange lease at Brea. Orange No. 7 is now in the oil sand at 3450 and will be completed soon. Picco No. 2 is approaching 4000 feet in the sandy shale. Picco No. 3 stands cemented at 2800, and No. 4 is drilling at 1450. On the Menchego lease No. 11 sto test out for water and production at 3207. Menchego No. 2 is drilling in sandy shale at 3425. Fisher No. 2 is building rig. At Olinda the Columbia has No. 38 drilling in the oil sand at 2300 and the well is looking good.
If there was nothing to the oil business it would not be any business. The Fullerton Oil Company subscribes to this idea in developing its Brea property, where No. 14 was about to test water and go ahead at 2400 when the casing collapsed. A fishing job is holding up No. 6 at 3300 where a Dumas has started. It will be necessary, however, to drill by some 4 inch casing before new hole can be made.
At 3750, the Placentia-Pacific Oil Company's No. 1 is beginning to look like the real thing. The formation is carrying lots of gas, and the gas must be coming from some place, that some place being presumably an oil sand. Drilling is to go on now or the deep production, and predictions now are strong for a big well.
The Placentia Oil Company is gradually getting the lost drill pipe out of No. 1 and hopes to be able to announce the making of new hole in a few days now. Fishing is at 2850.
A week ago the Petroleum Development Company's Bradford No. 1 looked like a nice well with a capacity of from five to six hundred barrels. The production has fallen off heavily and now some reclamation work is being done on the well. Drilled to 4120 this well has shown great promise repeatedly. At 4200 Bradford No. 2 is drilling in greasy sand and showing a little oil. No. 4 is in blue shale at 2900. Richfield No. 2 at 2900 is showing some colors and considerable gas. The formation here is sand and shale.
On the Yarnell property the Petroleum Midway has No. 14 drilling in the oil sand at 3050 feet and the well looks very good. On the Isaacs lease No. 2 is building rig. At Richfield Yorba No. 1 some fater developed at 3343 and has necessitated a recemi ng. Operations on the Krug property are traveling at high speed. No. 1 at 2761 is fishing; No. 2 is drilling at 2750; No. 3 at 2200 and No. 4 at 1175 Krug's No. 5 rig is up and the mater al is on the ground for No. 6. The Richfield-Consolidated's No. 1 is cleaning out and being put in production condition. No. 2 is being allowed to make a temporary production oi about 50 barrels daily.
A decision has been reached by the management of the Richfield-Yorba to drill its well deeper, and it is under stood that actual operations will be gin soon. It will be remembered that this well was drilled during the boom days to 3150, but failed to produce Recently an air compressor was put in to force production, but failed to get any results.
Drilling at 3700 in clay and hard sand the Richfield Giant is showing encouraging oil colors, enough to be lieve that the sand will be struck
This was money which Europeans loaned during the big expansion period that began in 1890. It was represented by stocks in mines, railroads and manufacturing plants. It paid more than $80,000,000 a year to the foreign owners in interest charges and in dividends. Soon after the war, Europe began to find herself badly in need of enormous credits in the U.S. Gradually, the $2,000,000,000 came back to this country to help pay Europe's rapidly mounting debt here. The United States had earned enough to buy back all the foreign interests in domestic industry.
Then the United States began to loan. At first the loans were counted in millions. Now the total is approximately $2,000,000,000, or almost precisely the amount which the United States formerly owed European investors.
This grand total of American investments abroad is in addition to about $13,000,000,000 loaned to foreign governments by this government, in $10,000,000,000 worth of direct war loans and about $3,500,000,000 credit on surplus war and navy materials.
OMAHA.—Because he could not obtain false teeth to fit, Jacob L. Rothschild, former saloon keeper, killed himself by shooting. He had purchased twenty-eight sets of false teeth, none of which gave satisfaction, his wife said.
Drilling in one of the hardest shale formations at 858 feet the La Habra Midway is finding the "going" pretty slow. The work is being done with cable tools.
The light oil showing struck by the Olinda Land Company at 500 feet continues at the preesnt depth of 875. The showing looks real encouraging and may open up a new light oil field in the vicinity of No. 23. At No. 22 a fishing job held up the work at 2530. The oil showing here is of the light quality also.
The Petroleum Development Company (Santa Fe) is getting ready to test the oil showings and water conditions in its deep test well. No. 88 drilled to 4289. Occasionally this well has shown some oil. The quantity and quality will be ascertained by the test. No. 92 is drilling at 2975 in brown shale, and No. 94 drilling at 2250 is showing oil and gas.
The West Coast Oil Company has a habit of bringing in 300 barrel wells. One each month has been coming in now since the first of the year. The late addition No. 49 was drilled to about 60 barrels daily.
A decision has been reached by the management of the Richfield-Yorba to drill its well deeper, and it is under stood that actual operations will be gin soon. It will be remembered that this well was drilled during the boom days to 3150, but failed to produce Recently an air compressor was put in to force production, but failed to get any results.
Drilling at 3700 in clay and sand the Richfield Giant is showing encouraging oil colors, enough to be liable that the sand will be struck soon. Drilling is making good progress, 125 feet a week.
Completed at 3240 the Richfield United is now on production. While the well is flowing by heads and no settled production has as yet been obtained, the well at best seems to be making about 200 barrels.
Advices from the Richfield Union Petroleum are to the effect that the cement will be drilled out and a test made this week. Drilled to 3200 this well showed up quite strong before setting pipe and something exciting is expected when the plug is drilled out.
SEEK ROOSEVELT MEMORIAL IN WASHINGTON
WASHINGTON, May 26—Raymond Robins of Chicago is in Washington urging a memorial to Theodore Roosevelt for the national capital, which will be fitting to the greatness of the former president.
"I want to see in Washington a memorial of Theodore Roosevelt that will be in keeping with the greatness of the man," said Mr. Robins, who is a member of the Roosevelt permanent memorial committee.
"Theodore Roosevelt represented the absolute spirit of the whole people as against any particular class Especially he appealed to boys. He was a man's man and a boy's man. He was equally at home with prif fighters and kings, with cowboys, navalists, writers, college professors and men who live their lives in the great out-of-doors. I believe that they only place a memorial should be erected in Washington, where the people of the nation may have it ways as a memory to the man who typified the real spirit of the people."
There might have been another story if the devil had thought to flict old Job with a black-and-tan vasion.

ditions in its deep test well. No. 88 drilled to 4289. Occasionally this well has shown some oil. The quantity and quality will be ascertained by the test. No. 92 is drilling at 2975 in brown shale, and No. 94 drilling at 2250 is showing oil and gas.
The West Coast Oil Company has a habit of bringing in 300 barrel wells. One each month has been coming in now since the first of the year. The late addition, No. 49, was drilled to 3155. The wells drilled in the old Olinda field do not come in gushers. but at 250 and 300 barrels and hold up to this figure for years. Drilling on No. 83 is at 875 in the conglomerate.
At 4550, when the Fullerton Oil Company's Anaheim Union was looking its best a twist off left 400 feet of drill pipe in the hole. On account of the small hole, washing over is impossible, and the lost pipe is being drilled by. It is believed now that the pipe can be sidelracked and the hole go on down into the deep oil sands without much trouble.
Richfield's outlook is holding the General Petroleum to a heavy development program. Fifteen wells are drilling. Brown No. 1 at Yorba Olinda is drilling at 2550 in the conglomerate. Davis No. 1 at 3400 feet is a water well. Group 2-1 drilled to 4527, is being cleaned out with the hope of making something out of it. Group 3-1, drilled to 3360, is being abandoned, mechanical trouble and little showing of oil making the move expedient. In the 4 Group No. 3 is drilling at 3225, and No. 4 is putting in 10 inch. Hugo No. 1 stands up a great producer, and is doing close to 500 barrels. Hugo No. 2 is drilling at 2400 in conglomerate. No. 3 Hugo spudded in and is drilling at 400. Jones No. 1 shows 1600 feet drilled. On the No. 5 drilling in the oil sand at 3200 looks like the next producer. Five wells are now producing on the Thompson property and are aggregating some 1200 daily. The Stern property is also showing a nice production, better than 800 barrels.

IF KIDNEYS AND BLADDER BOTHES
Take a glass of Salts to flush out your Kidneys and neutralize irritating acids.
Kidney and Bladder weakness results from uric acid, says a noted authority. The kidneys filter this acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it often remains to irritate and inflam causing a burning, scalding sensation, setting up an irritation at the neck the bladder, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. The sufferer is in constant dread, the water passes sometimes with a scalding sensation and is very profuse; again there is difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call because they can't control urination While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful, this is really one of the most simple alliments to overcome Get about four ounces of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and take a table spoonful in a glass of water before breakfast, continue this for two or three days. This will neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer is a source of irritation to the bladder and urinary cans which then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caused by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is aplied did for kidneys and causes no bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, effervescent lithia-water drink, which quickly relieves bladder trouble.
