California. Times, one of the liveat and moat progressive papers in me country, says: "While the country paper is small, It is doing just as much, in its way, for the progress and development of the section it serves as any of the larger papers, and m some cases a great deal more, because, as a rule. the bigger the paper the more its opinions are dominated from the counting room, something never thought of by the country weekly, which boosts its locality all the time without thought of receiving pay for such service. "The people of a country commu nity swear BY and not AT their local paper. It carries far greater weight. politically and otherwiso, with them than does the paper of metropolitan pretentions. The country weekly is closer to the hearts of its readers than is the case with the large newspapers." DEVELOP WATER POWER AND SAVE OIL The need of hydro-electric develop ment is shown by a late U. S. geolog ical survey report. It shows that the United State is consuming its oil sup ply fourteen times as fast as the rest of the world. This fact is brought to the public in a warning of fuel shortage to come with the present rate of consumption. The last figures on the world's oil supply disclose that foreign countries are using only one-half as much pe troleum as the United States, while they have seven times as much oil in the ground. Foreign countries are now using about 200,000,000 barrels of oils yearly, but they have resources large enough to last over 260 years. The United states at the present rate of consumption of more than 400,000,000 barrels a year has only an eighteen year supply. In other words, the United States is using up its own oil supply fourteen times as fast as the rest of the world. Instead of mining out petroleum so rapidly, we must either depend more and more on oil from other sources or get along with less oil. Our chil- i dren will doubtless do both. The i Manufacturer.

That some people talk more relig ion in ten minutes than they practice in ten years. That if fish .would nt bite on Sun day more men would be found at church.

That the average woman knows how to manage her daughter's hus band. That in order to successfully argue with a woman all you have to do is keep silent . cheeks.
