THE LEVEL
'.' After fluctuating back and forth witk more or le vio
lence, the cost of living aeemi to be aomewhere near station
ary Recent figures from the U. S. Department of Commerce
show that the average level of price is represented by the index
figure 165. compared with the figure of 100, which represents
the; average scale before the war. Though the prices of cer
tain food products went up through the summer and fall, this
advance has not yet been reflected by any considerable ad
vance in other costs. The average cost of living according to
these recent figures is just the same as that prevailing one year
previously. It is earnestly to be hoped that the general level of
prices will not be permitted to go any higher, since such a
tendency is almost sure to be followed by a decline in buying
power. The producers and distributors of manufactured goods
should be content with small margins of profit In many cases,
if producers take advantage of better times to jack up their
prices, their sales will fall off correspondingly. The workers
should realize that labor troubles create losses, and tend to
slow ud business, and in the end react on the trades that resort
to industrial conflict. Economists have generally expected a
sradual fall in prices for a period of years, arguing from the
analogy of the period after the
some 30 years. But conditions are somewhat different now.
Good farm land costs much more money than it did then, which
keeps food prices up and when food costs are high, other things
are high also. Hence the cost of living will not probably re
turn to the figures prevailing in 1914, yet it would promote
prosperity if h could recede considerably from the. present
level.

. Men and women of all political parties will regret to see
Secretary Hughes stepping out of his work as secretary of state.
However people may differ with Mr. Hughes' opinions, it will
generally be admitted that he exemplified what could be cal
led straightforward diplomacy. Old fashioned diplomacy hid
high trump cards up its sleeves, and manipulated them with
astute dexterity. It frequently won its games by this masterly
play. But that policy leaves irritations behind. The losers
realize they have in some mysterious way been buncoed. It has
been the American idea to play a franker and more open game,
saying what you mean and meaning what you say, and that in
the end this policy would win more confidence and produce
better practical results. Secretary Hughes' frank and sincere
mind was well adapted to express tlu's ideal, and he exemplified
it In all his relations with foreign powers.
David F. Houston, a former member of President Wilson's
cabinet, thinks much is done to solve labor troubles when the
wage-earners buy stock in the companies by which they are
employed. He pointed out in a recent address how improved
relations are being created by encouraging this practice. Form
erly the wage-earners were told that they must make themselves
so powerful through organization, that their employers and the
community would have to yield
and business was often so injured by this policy that the indus
tries could not pay good wages. When the employes have a
financial interest in the success of a company, they will work
harder for its prosperity, and the concern will usually be able
to ay better wages.

plying federal loans to Irrigated

discussion at the Monday after
noon setiaton of the meeting of the
Southern Oregon district of the
Federal Farm Lonn Hank Associa
tion, and in tho evening titMirge C.
Jewel t. secretary of tho Spokane
Federal Land Hank, addressed the
delegates on "national co-operativo
marketing and financing."
Mr. Jewett in his address ex
plained the workings of the farm
loans and the Intermediate credit
act, ami declared "1 shudder to
think what the outcome would have
been if the farmer had not had the
I Federal Farm Loan during the per
iod of liquidation following the
great war."
Mr. Jewett told the difficulties
thst bcoet the operation of the law
in Its primary stsges, including the
indifference of the agricultural in
terests to the bill. Kqunlization of
freight ratea was advanced as one
of the procedures necessary fir
the smoother operation of Iho Fed
eral Farm Loan act.
George A. Mansfield of this city
described the Federal Ioan Hank
Act as "the most magnificent piece
of legislation ever conceived for
jthe benefit of the farmer." He fur
I ther declared "in my opinion Its
Krewtewt enemy Is the farmer hit.i
I self." He urged the farmer to cant
aside "carping criticism, jealousy
land prejudice. Inform himself of
the workings of the law, and fl
I kiw It In an Intelligent and de

LEEPER DOME
At 650 Feet Drill Strikes

and Sand.
SOME OIL IS APPARENT
Sufficient Quantities of Gas
Come Up to Make Re

Work Progresses.
Does anyone ever remember of
throwing a lighted match Into a
pall of water to start a fire? This
may appear to very man who
have tried to build a fire In the
kitchen stove with wet kindling as
a frivolous question and wholly ir
levalent to any every day experi
ence. It may be. But there Is one
notable historical Instance when
water did burn. That waa a long
time ago, and the matter was quite
widely advertised during that per
iod. But we are not burning wa
ter these days. Conditions are not
the same, and the occasion at this
time not parallel to that of those
early days in the world's history.
However, If water on this SOth day
of January, 1925, will not burn, then
when it appears to do so, there
must be something or some prop
erty in it that doea bum.
Yesterday afternoon a group of
Roseburg men stood by the Leeper
Dome well where the drill was
thundering away approximately 700
feet below the surface. The time
came for bailing out the water and
pulverized rock. Workmen threw
in the clutch of the powerful ma
chinery and in a few minutes the
ponderous drill was drawn up. The
"bailer", a 20-foot bucket, 10 In
ches In diameter and with a valve
in the bottom, was lowered into the
hole. Tuo half-Inch steel cable to
which it was attached tightened
like a bow atring under the weight
of several hundred pounds of wa
ter and muck from the bottom of
the well, but the engine droned
cheerily with the load and quickly
hoisted the thing to the surface.
The "bailer" waa stopped at the
level of the operating room in or
der that the gentlemen present
might see how the stuff that was
coming up from the deptha of the
earth looked. The surface of the
mixture in the "bailer" was a
seething mass of bubbles, big and
lattlo. that appeared to be bursting
as unseen power from the bottom
of Uio container forced more to the
top. A few matches were handed
the News-Review represntative.
with instructions to strike them
and tent out the -mixture In the
"bailer." He did so. and results
were so spontaneous that a bad
burn was narrowly averted. The
water's surface continued to burn,
very much as a gas Jet. until all the
bubbles were gone. Almost imme
diately, however, other bubbles be
gan to appear, and soon another
match was applied, and the burn
ing process went on as at first.
This was continued for upward of
ten minutes, when the "bailer" was
dumped and sent down for another
quantity. Four times this thing was
repealed, and In each Instance tne
surface of the stuff in the "bailer"
was a seething mas of bubbles,
and the burning process waa tried
out with enure success.
Itt Natural Gas
While there is somo oil In the
hole at Leeper Dome, the quantity
is not sufficient to burn, because it
is mixed with the ate rand pulver
ized rock that comes up in the
"bailer." But somewhere down in
the depths of that well the drill
has probably opened up a gas
chamber, and that theory alone ex-'
plains why those bubbles form on
the surface of the water in the
"bailer." Every one of them is a
miniature jras tank. The only way
this gas has of freeln itself from
the water and muck is through
the bubble process. These bubbles
explode as they resch the surfnee,
so when tho match Is applied they
flash up Just as does the manufac
tured sort that many housewives
use in their kitchen ranees. There
appears to be a lot of this gas
coming to the surface, but how ex
tensive It msy prove to be Is a mat
ters for future determination. Hut
;as is there right now.
Soms Oil, Too.
Every time the "bailer" comes up
It brines oil. This commodity is
plainly in evidence to even the un
practlced eye. As the water and
pulverised rock Is released from the
"bailer," the oil quickly separates
Itself from the other liquid and runs
in streaks by itself. It is In suffi-
d?nt quantities so that It quickly
forms a thin, "r.cunillke" sub
stance over the surface of little
j pools along the ditch Into which it
I is dumped, ami when this substance
I Is disturbed and separated. It im
I mediately runs together again.
Identlcslly as most of us have seen
oil do that has gotten into barrels
lor palls of water. (Quantities 0f
this oil. water and pulverlied rock
have repeatedly been tested out by
addition of chloroform and the oil
is thus Iminedlstely detected.
Straus Encountered
At a depth of approximately 650
feet tha drill found hard sandstone
and lime formation, and after S2
feet of tills sort of work broke
through into a soft shale deposit
that proved to be about S feet
thick. It was In this formation
that the gas was discovered. Thurs
day evening the first Intimation of
(aa was had. and tho operators
ooa duKovarad that they bad open-
IL
PROSPECT
ed ud a chamber that was supply
ing a lot of natural gaa. The drill
waa kept going until sandstone was
found ax tun. and ia at present work-,
ling in the hard rock below the soft
shale, where the gaa was discov
ered. ;
Just "Sawing Wood." 1
The men backing this experi
mental oil drilling proposition are
i not exploiting their discovery. They
have taken the auccesses met with
calmly, and instead of shutting
down and starting in a frenzied sale
of stock, have just kept on the job
"sawing wood" and further develop
ing the find. Indications are so flat
tering tliat success appears to them
as assured. They have In no wise
tried to hoodwink any persons Into
subscribing for stock. The several
men officering the company have
stood a great deal of the expense
Incidental to the development of
the prospect, and are still devoting
their time without compensation to
the ultimate goal of bringing in a
producer. There is no preferred
stock, no promotion stock, and
every man stands in the same class
as hia fellow subscriber to the
stock offered.
It this aame demonstration of gas
that burns and oil that can be seen
on the water coming out of the
well thai was shown at Leeper
Dome west of Oakland, and Suth
erlin yesterday, had been made in
any of the proven oil belts, there
would have been a corresponding
boom in oil stock and headllner
stories of the riches of the oil field ;
broadcasted over tbe country. The :
company owns and holds leasea on 1
6SO0 acres of land in the territory j
adjacent to Leeper Dome, and when i
this well proves a producer as every :
man Interested in It believes it will, i
these holdings will be worth a lot.
From a few cents an acre at this
tuns prices will go to $300, (500
and even higher for leases alone: j
That Is, ir oil here has the same
physological effect on the human
mind that it has had in Texas,
Wyoming or California. The men
who hold the stock of the company
will be the gainers and every one
participate equally per share. The
company owns all its equipment,
does not owe a dollar to any firm
or any man, and has sufficient
funds on band to prosecute, the
work. The stock that has been
sold was on a basis of II a share,
payable one twelfve down and one
twelfth monthly, in this way the
company has funds coming In con
stantly for carrying on the de
velopment work. No announce
ment has been made of any change
in this policy. ,
In speaking of the success so far
attained, W. L. Cobb, general mana
ger of the company, stated yester
day that his people are "jubilant
over the find at the 700-foot level,
and while they believe the gas
might warrant an effort to com
mercial the find, it Is the Intent of
the management to go right on
down until the oil deposits believed
to exist in their locality are tapped.
There will be no letting up, but
with the equipment sufficiently
large to go to any reasonable depth,
we are going to prove to Douglas
county and Oregon that oil does
exlBt here commercially."
If there are any Doubting
Thomnses in the community who
want to see water apparently burn,
a trip over to the Leeper Dome oil
well workings will demonstrate tho
fact.

land professional men's service club
has grown to over 1-50 cities iu
these two countries, each club
working independently as far as its
service work iu its own city In con
cerned, but all clubs working iu ac
cordance with general policij4 of
the International orfianiihtion,
which are made up after conidera-
tion of the needs of cHies in botli
countries, and consideration of
such civic and social service work
in which all club can cooperate,
j "One of tho general policies of
i Kiwanis for instance," saiJ Mr.
j Harding, president of the local
jclub, 'is to perform such aervico tm
behalf of under-privileged cbtldiva
that will remove their handicap
land open the way for them to a
higher type of citizenship llihn
I they could obtain unaided,
i "Other general policies In which
an of the clubs are engaged In tin-ir
j own way is the promotion cf a
more aggressive and serviceable cit
izenship, work to make thj ri'U-
in all civic activities, and develcui
ment of a sounu puouc opinion on
all important public Issues.
"The activities of the Ro3ehurg
Kiwanis club illustrate tbe practi
cal nature of those policies. When
the previous lack of this kin 1 of
civic work by men whose time was
formerly given up entirely to bml
neas is considered, the growth of
Kiwanis with Its yearly accomplish
ments which amount to thou-vrds
of distinct community actM'.ies, is
remarkable.
"The slogan during onr anniver
sary week Is "A ti nth of a century
achievement greater responsibili
ties ahead " This Indicates that
even though much has been done In
these past ten years, the clubs con
sider their work only as fitting
them for stil greatelr work to ba
done."
