“How much petroleum there is in the
United States no one knows, ” writes
Franklin K. Lane in an article on
"Economic Preparedness,” published in
the Scientific American. But at the
present rate of consumption—265,000,-
000 barrels a year—it will soon be ex­
hausted, for the geological survey’s
maximum estimate Is 23,000.000,000
barrels.
"Whatever the supply,” says Mr.
Lane, "It should not be allowed in its
crude state to compete with coal as
fuel. Petroleum is a priceless resource,
for it can never be replaced. Trees can
be grown again on the soil from which
they have been taken. But how can
petroleum be produced? It has taken
ages for nature to distill it in her sub­
terranean laboratory. We do not even
know her process. We may find a sub­
stitute for It. but we have not yet.
“It is practically the one lubricant of
the world today. Not a railroad wheel
turns without its way being smoothed
by it. We can make light and heat by
hydroelectric power, but the great
turbines move on bearings that are
smothered In petroleum. From It we
get the quick exploding gas which is
to the motor and the airship what air
is to the human body. To industry, ag-
riculture, commerce and the pleasures
of life petroleum la now essential.
MUSK IN THE RAW.
It Looks Much Like Axle Grease, but
Has a Worse Odor.
Musk in the raw looks a good deal
like axle grease and smells worse. The
popular notion that the musk of com­
merce is obtained from the muskrat
is a mistake.
There is obtained a somewhat simi­
lar perfume from the muskrat, but
most of the supply comes from the
musk deer, a creature that is carefully
reared in India for the sake of the se­
cretion. The secretion is shipped in
the crude state and Is used not only
in the manufacture of the liquid per­
fume sold as musk, but also In very
small quantities to give strength and
staying power to many perfumes made
from the essential oils of flowers.
Curiously enough, the blossoms of
two native plants have a noticeably
musky odor. One is the small yellow
blossom of a creeping vine known as
the musk plant Its odor Is marked
and Is counterfeited in the commercial
perfume called musk. The other is the
bloodroot. The pure white blossom of
that early spring plant has a distinct
though delicate musky odor.
A bean known as the musk bean Is
a cheap substitute for animal musk.—

Clearance Sale
Friday morning, January 5th, we will open our January
Clearance Sale.
It offers the greatest reduction of prices
and at the same time values not to be
found elsewhere; and remember this— it takes more than
“marked down prices” to make value.
If you want high class, distinctive, new, up-to-the-
minute clothing and dress goods, you’ll get more of it here
than anywhere else and for less money, too.
Our merchandise is our best argument—come and in­
vestigate.
