4 Wonderful Oil Well.

THE Titusvile Pa) Herald thus de-
scribes a wonderful oil well that has
just been opened:
"The road leading to the Parker well
from Petrolia is in moderately good con-
dition, and soon after leaving Central
Point the tEaveler observes the words
No smoking permitted here, in cOnspiCu-
Gus places. After about two and half
miles ride the top of Il hill is reached,
where a loud, roaring noise is distinctly
heard, and eighty rods further on brings
US in sight of the well. A dense fog or
mist envelopes the derrick, engine-house
and tanks, while fully one thousand per-
sons are there gazing on the wonder of
Armstrong County. The derrick has
cOnspicuOusly placed upon it in large let
tiers, Boss Well and Cresweu City
There are two 250-barrel tanks, full of
oil; also two 200 barrel tanks, one of
which is full. Three dams, one below
the other, catch the dripping and the
rivulet beyond, we are told, for ten miles
Of a circuitOus route to the Allegheny
River, is covered with oil. There are
two tWO-inch pipes connected with the
well, one Of which is shut completely off,
and out of the other flows a steady
stream of oil with immense force. There
IS no perceptible iutermission in the
flow, and as it gushes into one of the
1,200-barrel tanks the foam and spray
envelop the whole surrounding atmoS-
phere in a dense mist.
" a trustworthy gauger informed us that
he had gagged the we'll three times since
the stream was turned into the 1,200-bar-
rel tank, and he found it doing !, $50 bar
rels, and he estimated the leakage to be
at least fifty barrels per day. He further
stated that, in his opinion, the well
started off out of the two twO-inch pipe
at the rate of $500 barrels per day. He
also claimed that, although this was
almost incredible, he believed that if the
full stream was turned on now it would
do at least 1000 barrels.
"The well is claimed to be the largest
ever struck in the lower region. 4
farmer walked up to us and offered to
sell his adjoining farm Of 100 acres for
100000, which ten days ago, for farming
purposes, would not have brought 81 600
The surveyors are at work laying out
Creswen City.
"The Parker well stands 218 miles due
east of the most eastern we'll on the
fourth sand development, and about q
miles east Of Petrolia. The number of
wells drilling on the belt east or the
most easterly well on the McGarvey
farm, are six, namely: Two on the Snow
farm, one on the Steel farm, the Gush-
ford well, 1000 feet deep, the Crawford
well, 300 feet deep, and the Prentice
well, 1 ,450 feet deep The latter is hBlf
a mile due west Of the Parker well, and
is due next week"

OF the various fisheries the cod was
last year the most profitable, the revenue
for Nova Scotia alone being 1851, 159;
the mackerel revenue was 81, Al, $50; the
lobster. SSG5,574: and the salmon, $685.,
1S6. Several of these show an increase
over the previous years returns, that in
the value of the codfShery being nearly
$500. 600. while that of the salmon fishery
is more than 100000.
The first nugget of Georgia gold was
found in a stream known as Dukes
Creek in 1929, and weighed three ounces.
1t is believed that the mines of Georgia
Welded about $4,000 before the estab
iishment of the United States Mint at
Dahlonega in 1888, and the mint coined
$4,000 600 before it was closed, at the
breaking out of the war. Since the war
gold mining has been almost neglected.
A Florida correspondent. in the
course Of an interesting communication
regarding Florida fisheries, says: The
best fishermen in Florida are the pelicans
and ospreys. 4 pelican consumes about
a peck of fish a day. They flock about
the inlets and straits by thousands
Surprising there are 100000 pelicans in
Florida-and there are certainly more
than that-they would eat 500, 900 bushels
of fish each day, or 1872, 50O,OOO bushels
per year. The millions upon millions of
white and blue cranes, herons, curlews,
gulls, tishhawks, kingtishers and other
waterfowl devour thousands of bushels
of fish every twenty-four hours. An ex-
perienced Cracker estimates that 100000
bushels of fish day are required to feed
the birds of Florida alone. This would
make 225, 100000 bushels each year. And
to this the billions of fish swallowed by
sharks, bass and others, and the sum
total will reach nearly 2,000,G00,000
bushels destroyed by feathered and fnny
fishermen on the peninsula in twelve
months. At first glance these figures
appear enormous, but let any man make
his own estimate, and carefully figure it
up, and he will find them under instead
of over

Weights and Measures,

y CORRESPONDENT of the Rural Neao
YORKER says the imperial gallon (English)
holds ten pounds Of water, the United
States gallon holds $3.50 pounds, and the
New York gallon holds exactly eight
pounds. 1t is a wel-understood fact
that the Constitution of the United
States provides that Congress and Con
gress alone shall have power to regulate
the weights and measures used in this
country. Congress has enacted that the
gallon used in these United States shall
contain exactly 231 cubic inches OF 1899
pounds of water, and when the State of
New York passed a law providing for
gallon that would hold exactly eight
pounds OF water the wiseaCres at Albany
exceeded their power and the law was
unconstitutional and consequently null
and void. There is but one standard
gallon in the State of New York and
that gallon is the United States gallon.
Before leaving this subject it may be
we'll to allude to the laws passed in the
different States, declaring that the bushel
shall contain so many pounds of different
Kinds Of grain. 1t is a serious question
whether these laws are constitutional.
We have no doubt that when a contract
IS made for so many bushels of grain the
courts would enforce the delivery of so
many measures each of which should
contain 2,15042 cubic inches. The def
milton Illinois bushel" or Iowa bush
el' would not affect this decision. Hi
nolS, Iowa and other States have no
right to adopt bushel which differs
from that Of the United States.
