A sliiht cold in the head has pre vented Herbert A. W. Behnsen from leavine home for businesa durinjr the past few days. In all probability his •present conflition. that is, the sweli- injr of his cranium, may he due to the abnormal flnctmat.ions in the stock market. No doubt his new surround- injf^ have something to flo with it, more or le.n.s. Our readers will 1*0001- lect that Her'bert recently acquired a position in the financial centre in -J^Anhattan.

OIL
BiS FACTOR
Asset That Makes America Im¬ portant as War Power.
As Valuable to C.'itjse of Allies ••
American Men, Money and
Munitions.
^Vushln^.'ton.—If America's men, money nnd iiiiinitlon.'j did not consll- lute II vltnl usset in the ciius«< of,lln nllies nL'iiliist (Ji'riiuiii.v. Amerlco would still be a friend In net>d. If she could not r>rovlde •siiip.'j or .steel, she would still oonstltiife a plllnr of stren>.'th.
Tli«- reason? Oil.
AnK'rlcn produces more oil than all the rest of the world. And slilps, en¬ gines, iiutos, nnd man.v other ^var fac¬ tors nre m\t\^ oil as m motive force. Oil l.w needed :i.s a luhrlcnnt for all the nietiil.s used lu the prosecution of war. Its ti.Kcs nre so viirliMl and so vltnl, lndee«l. thnt (»11 constitutes Hfudher of those eoiiiinodifles without which the wnr conld not he won.
In lOiri. for which flpiires have been completed and is.sued hy the Amerl¬ cnn Jllnlnir concress, the United Stnto.'s [irodiired aiirl mnrUpted 281.104.104 ImlTels of cnide petroleiiin. This com¬ prised C,r,.-2 per cent, or almost two- Ihlrds:. of the entire world production.
Other countries follow: Rnssin. ^r>.0^ fier rent: Mexico, ".(i() per cent : Dutch Dust Indies, :.>.nn per rent; Roinnnnia, '2.S1 per cei t; India, 1.02 per cent. And less than 1 per cent ench, (Jallrln, .Ta- imn Jind Formosa, Peru. (Jertnnny, Trinldnd. Arprenlinn, Epypt, C'anada and Itnly.
With this list In hnnd. It Is ensy to see why American oil ia so Important a factor In the prosecution of the war. Russlnn fields, If they nre being work¬ ed fit nil, prnhnhly are being worked for Germany's henefit. So are Rou¬ manian fields.
Thus far, thongh prloes have soared just ns If there was a famine In oil, the American fields. Including the Mex- icrin, have siifflced to keep all the allies fairly well supplied. Students of war problems declnre thnt America's oil supply will be practically as valuable In the last analysis as American men, money and mnnltlons.

The Indescribable mass Invokes the confusion ns well as the tragedy of the battlefield. There are pierced and dented helmets, worn and stained pieces of uniform, forage caps, great¬ coats, leggings, army shoes ond trench boots, some of them pierced by bullets, some torn by shrapnel and others shredded by violent contact with barbed wire.
All of them are covered with layers of raud of varying thickne.sses and not Infrequently a garment presents a stain of an Indefinable color, always easily recognized but got rid ot with ditllculty. These garments receive special treatuit^nt. They are flrst thrown Into a receptacle which they go through a long and thorough cleans¬ ing before belnp treated as other gar¬ ments.
