An eleetrical method of carrying warmth to the bottom of oil wells has heen found in many cases greatly to in- crease the flow of ofl. The heating process, says Popular Mechaales Maga- #ing, decreases the viscldity of the ofl, usually occasioned by the admission of air to the well and the cooling of the rock bed. Minute crevices and capil- lary chaunels which afford easy pass age to warm, thin oil become .quite Im- passable If the oil gums. The electric heating method not only thins the oll but often generates gas whose pressure helps the oil to the surface. The sys- tem found military use in the aban- doned ofl fields of Roumania and salicla. “In times like these when economy is so essential, I know of no- better way to save than to have the entire family shod with Neslin Soles,” writes B.

Junction City, Kan~—Unfitted by wounds to follow his pre-war pursuit of farming, Curtis Boyle, a soldier in two armies, returned from France to find that .during his absence an oll well has been drilled on his farm near Peabody, Kan,, yielding 600 barrels a. day. Boyle purchased the land sev- eral years ago for $2 an acre. The soldier oil-magnate, who is now in the Fort Riley Reconstruction hos- pital, sustained 28 bullet and shrap- nel wounds during his military serv- ice, in addition to being ,gassed and burned by liquid fire. He enlisted in the Third Canadian infantry late in 1914 and was trans- | ferred to the American forces last year, serving with the Thirty-fifth and Seventy-seventh divisions. Boyle has silver plates in his arm, leg and collar bone and is minus his ribs and lung on the right side. His legitimate quota of wound stripes runs from wrist to shoulder. COYOTES’ DEATH KNELL Fencing of Stock Ranges in Many Places Sounds It. The death knell of the coyote, long the bane of the stockman’s existence, has sounded. The unlamented para- site 1s rapidly becoming extinct. The fencing of the ranges, where practi- cally every acre is stocked with cat- tle, has robbed the coyote of his hunt- ing ground, where he was wont to prey upon calves and lambs and sick cattle and sheep. Many tales are related of chs cow- ardice of the coyote. They are true ——except when he is cornered. Re- cently a drive, participated in by 250 horsemen, succeeded In encircling 60 coyotes. As the circle narrowed the coyotes charged and all but nine escaped, These, with the help of daogs. were killed, but only after a battle in which half a dozen dogs were sac- rificed.

A Cook county farmer whose farm s not far from Chicago has built a sentry house in the corner of his place from which he can see what is going on near any part of the farm. He oc- cuples the upper room every night and, alded by a dog, knows when anyone is sneaking around the premises. The lower part of the sentry house he uses as & workshop. A row of windows in the upper part gives him a wide view of all the surrounding country.
