cw High Record Made In September,
With Output Lower.
Washington. —Consumption of petrol
im reached the high record figure of
$48,670,000 barrels in September, while
tion decreased slightly, the Geo
Survey reported in its monthly
statement. The average dally produc
tion was placed at 1,261,500 barrels, as
compared with 1,270,870 barrels in Au
gust
The deficiency in domestic produc
tion, the survey stated, was offset by
net imports of 10,914,000 barrels, the
largest ever recorded in a single
month.
Decreased production was ascribed
by the survey to lessened returns from
Central and North Texas and North
Louisiana.
California, in September, attained
the record dally production of 304.267
barrels, supplanting Oklahoma as first
in rank. Montana went ahead of Col
orado.

Lonely Telephone Station,
An Isolated telephone pay station is
located at a camp on the shore of
Richardson lake, one of the Rangeley
group in narthern Maine. This tele-
phone is more than 30 miles from the
nearest station at Rumford, on the
Maine Central railroad. The line runs
12 miles from the eamp to the town
of Andover, where connection is made
with switchboard in the office of the
Andover Telephone company, a sub-
licensee of the New England company.
From that town the lines extend 18
miles to Rumford. From this tele
phone many emergency ealls have orig-
inated during the ten years since the
station was established. It has been
the means of saving the lives of many
hunters snd woodsmen who have been
injured in the north woods,

Failure.
The treasurer's report of the finances
of the local Red Cross Auxiliary as here
published shows the auxiliary having on
hand cash in the sum of $91.86, the total
receipts for the year having been$ays.89,
Of this sum $180.50 was obtained as

approximately fifty per cent of this item,
The annual meeting called to elect
new officers was so lightly attended,
that the matter was postponed to some
future time.
It is hoped that our citizens in and
about Centre Hall will not fail to renew
their membership in this great cause.
There are calls everywhere for the Red
Cross work. Itis time to enroll now.
Do not wait for a solicitor to wait on
you, but rather forward the money to
the treasurer as soon as you read this

has lost three nice hogs within the past
week from cholera. His loss will exceed
$250 as ihe porkers tipped the scales at
from 450 to 500 pounds, each and were
in excellent order for the slaughter. Mr,
Shade, the tenant on the Dr, Swigart
farm, has lost about $500 this season
from the same cause. After being
seized by the disease the hogs last only
a few hours,

Of Health,
Answers to Health School Questions.
Question 1—-Why should French heel
ed shoes not be worn?
Answer--They lessen the freedom ot
the ankle motion, throw the weight on
the ball of the foot and cramp and
crowd the toes,
Question 2 What is the cause of that
condition known as painful feet ?
Answer—Weakened supporting mus.
cles of the arches of the feet throw extra
strain the ligaments which hold the
bones together, It isthe pull of these
ligaments upon the outer shell of the
bones whith causes painful feet,
Question 3—How may it be corrected ?
Answer—By proper shoeing and regular
feet excercises.
The subject of the next lesson will be
“Pot’s Dispase” or “Tuberculosis of the
Spine”, Tuberculosis may attack any
part of the body--when the bones be-
come affected they break down. All
cases of “hunchback” are the result of
tuberculosis of the spine, but if properly
treated in the early stage the character
istic deformity may be prevented.
