WARNS WOMEN AGAINST
THE EXPOSITION CITY
The folly of labor of all kinds
rushing into cities asking prepara
tion for national or world exposi
tions, on expectations of unlimit
ed opportunities to secure posi
tions, is being repeated In the in
stance of San Francisco, until the
situation has rtached a gravity, es
pecially in regard to the coining
rush , of girls and women, that has
led to letters being sent to the
governors of al? states by the Young
Women's Christian Association ask
ing aid in coping with the situation.
The evils resulting ifrom the over
rush of male labor is bad enough,
but the influx o* girls and women
from all walks of life has its es
pecial dangers. There is, of course,
iu every case ot the kind, as is
stated by the association, in re
gard to California, enough women
in the state l-> flil every position
open or which might be created as
a result of th» exposition. Women,
coming in by the hundreds and
thousands, find the positions fill
ed and themselves in la serious
plight as few are well provided with
funds. Soon they are reduced to a
condition of want and strangers in
a strange city, they are subject to
distress and ti grave perils. It is
just such condXons that offer the
temptation aud short-cut to immor
ality. Many of these women in
San Francisco are already starving
it Is declared, and the situation has
become alarming.
The governors are requested to
call puolic attention iu their states
to the situat'un in San Francisco
and warn th*< worneu not to go
there in expectation of securing po
sitions.—Olympia Recorder.
INCREASED GAS PRO
DUCTtON IN CALIFORNIA
The year 1912 was the greatest
in the history of the natural gas
industry in California, the quantity
of gas produced being estimated at
;neurly one-half .more than that pro
'diiced in 1911. This increase was
not brought a-out by the discovery
of any new fields, but by an in
creased production from the districts
already reported, particularly the
Midway field, whiclr"Came into prom
inence as a gas'producer in 1910-11.
The total production ot natural
gag In California in 1912, as estim
ated by E. W. Parker, of the Uni
ted States Ger.logical Survey, was
9,354,428,000 cubic feet, .valued at
$1,747,379, compared wltU 6,389,82
000 cubic feet, valued at $S00,714,
lin 1911. i
Vhe larger portion of the natu
ral "as produc€d in California is
consumed in the industries, the es
timated quant'ty in 1912 being
8.379,C32,000 cubic feet Only 974,
796,000 cubic feet was consumed for
domestic purposes, but these fig
are almost double those for
1911, the number of domestic con
sumers having increased from 10,
598 in 1911 to 18,171, in 1912.
A considerable quantity of the
«as produced from the oil wells of
California goes to waste annually,
there being no means of disposing
of it. Much of this gas is rich In
gasoline and during 1912 several
plants were erected and succoss
fully operated. I
There were 71 producing gaa well
iu California at the close of 1912,
six wells having been completed
during the year.
