Cost of Gasoline.
P
l Washington, Jan. 25.?Gasoline
i production costs, showing that retail
prices are from seven to ten cents
above the refining cost were made
public today by the federal trade
commission after an investigation directed
by Victor Murdock. The cost
of producing gasoline was found to
be the lowest in California, 13.52
v cents. The retail price in San Francisco
was given as 20.5.
The highest production cost was in
New Jeresy and eastern territory
I amounting to 17.642 cents while the
New York retail price was 26 cents.
Other figures given were gulf coast
i 15.4682; Chicago retail price,' 21
cents.
r The commission said it used the
^ market price of crude oil in computF
in the refining cost.

[ "Papa, what makes your face and
L nose so dre'fullv red?"
p "The east wind, of course,', 'answered
papa rather hastily. "Do not
talk so much Thomas, and pass me
the beer."
It was then that a voice came from
the other end of the table in dulct
tones, saying; 'Tommie, dear, pass
your papa the east wind, and ;be
careful not to spill it on the clean
cloth."?Judge.
i
LONG TRIP TO DROP BOMBS.
i
Britons Fly From London to
Constantinople.
| Interesting details of the recently
i announced flight of a British battle ,
j airplane from London to Constantinople
where it bombed the battleI
ship Goeben, the German headjquarters
and the Turkish war office,
[were given at a banquet in London
the other day by Handley Page, who ;
described it as the longest distance
military attack on record. The
flight of- 2,000 miles was made without
mishap.
The feat was accomplished by a
biplane with two 270 horse power
engines, carrying two pilots, an en?inppr
and two mechanics.
O *?*
"Loading up at Hendon," said Mr.
Page, "the machine, which with
spares and luggage, was over six tons
in weight, proceeded to Paris, Lyons
and, to avoid the Alps, continued by
way of Marseilles. From Marseilles
the journey was by way of Spezzia to
Pisa, Rome, Naples and Otranto, the
last point over a friendly country.
The next and perhaps the most difficult
stage of the journey was over
the Albanian Alps to Saloniki, a trip
of 250 miles accross mountains varying
from 8,000 to 10,000 feet, with
no suitable place for landing in case
of need. In covering this distance
two stops were made, the first at
Paris and the Seconal at Pisa.
"From Saloniki the adventurous
party flew to their base, overhauled
the machine and prepared for a long
distance bombing expedition to Constantinople,
a distance of 320 miles. ,
"On their attacking trip they set
forth with 16 bombs and on arriving
at the sea of Marmora throttled down
from 2,000 to 1,600 feet, the Golden
Horn and other points being clearly
in view.
"After a short survey of the lights
of Constantinople and to make sure
of their objectives, they came down
to 800 feet and dropped a salvo of
four bombs, hoping to hit the Goeben
which was anchored just beneatfh
them. Unfortunately they missed
the ship, but managed to hit one or
two submarines that were lying
alongside her.
"Turning on their track, they
made another attempt on the Goeben,
nd this time in spite of the attentions
of a number of Turkish and German
anti-aircraft guns, managed to land
four bombs on the battleship. Then
they flew to a ship called the General,
which was the headquarters of
the German staff and dropped two
bombs on her. Next they made their
way to the Turkish war office and
dropped two more bombs on that
building, the Turkish official report
of the incident stating that 'the war
office was not destroyed.'
"After half an hour's bombing on
Constantinople they turned round
and made for their base. One of
their engines was disabled and no
fewer than 26 bullet holes were
made in their machine. The journey
to Constantinople and back, a distance
of 640 miles, occupied seven
hours. They were 30 hours in the
air on the flight from London to
Constantinople."
A Hard Life.
A farmer living in Iowa, returning
home one evening from a rural banquet,
dropped lazily into a chair and
addressed his wife as follows:
"I am all tired out. Are the cows
all in the barn?"
"Yes, Henry."
"Horses all fed and bedded down?"
he asked as he produced a cigar with
a gilt band around it.
"Yes, Henry."
"Chickens aren't locked up, though
are they?"
"Yes, Henry; long ago."
"Wood chopped for morning?"
"Yes."
"Ducks picked and wagon wheel
mended for tomorrow's market?"
"Yes, Henry."
The farmer lighted the cigar,
yawning and said:
"Well, then, just hand me the farm
paper and draw me a jug of cider,
Mary. I'll turn in soon. Farming's
beginning to tell on me."?Denver

Just for Pastime.
Slocombe Pogis is not a gay place
and the commercial traveler was
hard put to it to discover some
means of whiling away the evening.
In the bar of the only hotel he entered
into conversation with its solitary
occupant, a railway porter.
"Anything going on here just
now?" he asked. "Picture palace,
lecture, political meeting or anything
amusing?'
The porter stroked his chin reflectively.
"Well?er?no; nothing o'
that kind. But?Ah, now I come to
think of it, we're loading a freight
train this evening down at the station
at about 10 o'clock, if you care
to come and look on!"?Judge.

Not Patriotic, Says ( rum.
Unanimous consent was asked yesterday
in the house to take up out of
its regular order the bill creating
the State council of defense. Objection
was immediately entered by
Mr. Hemphill, of Chester, and Mr.
Duncan, of Union. Mr. Crum emphasized
that this was the first war
measure to come before the house
and made an earnest plea for its consideration.
Objection was again entered,
when Mr. Crum retorted:
"This is the first war measure to
come before this house and I think
it's a distinctly unpatriotic act to enter
objection."?The State.
There were 74,98 7 pounds of onion
seed valued at $83,132 invoiced

States during 1916, compared with

1915.
