Noy. 2—St. John’s college will,have a decided jump on other members of the Minne- sota college conference when the gen- eral call for basketball candidates is issued at the end of the football sea- son. ‘ ‘The local school did not put a foot- ball team into the field this season, following precedent, but the basket- pall squad has been taking light work- outs in preparation for the coming season. St. John’s basketball team has al wavg heen in the thick of the basket- ball running and prospects for this seus0us teal are better than usual. Hamline, St. Thomas, Carleton, St. Olaf and Gustavus Adolphus have a few basketball candidates, not on the football squad, taking light workouts. Macalester, handicapped by the lack of an adequate gymnasium, is usually a short ender in the basketball season, but efforts will be made this year to give the team an opportunity to de- yelop in a.suitable gymnasium. There are prospects of a Mac gymnasium be- ing constructed, if a drive for funds now under way is successful. ‘e American Legion To Have Basket Ball Teams in Field St. Paul, Minn., Nov. 2.—American Legion basketball leagues, which ‘have been organized in several districts throughout the state for play during the coming winter for district cham- pionships, may lead to the torr ation of a state league which will decide he state championship by an imine tion meet in one of the larger syninas- iums in the state, according to those interested.

An appointment for a fixed time and place always finds both parties ab- sent at the hour named. ‘An inter-|- view ‘arranged with an official involves usually a wait of an hour in the ante- room. The failor will not be ready to try on your suit until atleast two days after‘he has promised to do so. , Trains rarely start and aleve arrive at the scheduled hour. These are some few indications of the little interest Span- fards showin the time.

It comes for nothing out of the ground when you dig a hole.” This is true, if it comes out of the ground without help. The greatly increased cost lies in digging the hole, casing it, caring for the. oil hed it comes out, and transporting and handling it on its way to the refinery. . Petroleum Age in its September issue says: “The cost of drilling and equipping a-well at thexpresent scale of pricessfor material andelabor runs from Five aheusagd Dol- Jars for a:shallow sand pumper to Seventy- five Thousand Dollars for the deep-wells.” A: general average covering the. entire country would run about Twenty Thousand Dollars per well. 4 One.item which is often overlooked is the cost of drilling wells which fail to produce oil. It:is estimated that from 20 to 30 per- cent of all wells put down are cry holes. Yet, in spite.of-all discouragements, which included shottage of casing, difficulties of transportation, and the increasing expense of labor, on Juty 31st, 1920, there were eleven:thousand wells drilling or undeg way east:of the Rocky Mountains, with ‘com- pletions averaging, about three thousand ~ wells a month. Probably thirty-six thous ) sand wells will be completed during 1920. The total expense, including investment in drilling tools, lease equipment and labor, is roughly estimated at one billion dollars. Deducting two hundred fifty million dol- lars (25 percent) for salvage on equipment susceptible of further use, the net invest- ment in new production for the year will be seven hundred fifty million dollars. \ It is apparent that oil does now come “for. nothing opt of the ground.” ~Oil is usually discovered in spots, remote from rail centers. The cost of pumping and transporting it te the refinery,is a heavy 4 charge. At the refinery charges begin to = up, for refining .oil is a true’ manu- facturing process involving application of chemistry, the use of specialized machinery, and human labor.. . All of these factors add to the cost of a product which Nature has given us, The Standard Oil-Company (Indiana) has been steadfastly ‘applying the trained power of its organization to) increasing the yield of gasoline from crude, and in achieving ; economies by large scale operations: in re- , fining and distributing its products. ‘ Standard Oil Company 3 (indiana) a 910 So.
