Sistersville, w. Va, January 10
Another good we'll was drilled in over
on the Ohio side of the Sistersville
field this afternoon, and it is one that
makes the section in the vicinity OF
the Calebaugh well look very good.
The well drilled in to-day was that
of Gayley Bros, on the Calebaugh
farm. The well is located a little in
advance of anything yet drilled in
that section, and is flowing at the rate
of twenty barrels an hour. This well
is located on the line of the Stewart
farm, on which Crawford & Treat are
drilling a couple OF wells, and it now
looks like a cinch that these people will
get good wells on the Stewart farm.
Oil men are of the opinion tonight
that there has been a new pool opened
up over in that section and that there
will be a repetition OF the Deist eX-
element in a short time. Quite q
number OF operators who have been
waiting to see what this well would
make have now signified their inten-
ton of going ahead and drilling their
territory.

ROAD IMPROVEMENT.

A statement made by the Office Of
Road Inquiry in the United States De-
partmen5 of Agriculture, furnishes a
forcible Illustration of the immense eco
monte Importance Of road Improvement
According to this statement the total
value Of farm products in 1890 was
nearly $2.5OOOOO.0OO, While the cost Of
baulage eff the same over the common
roads was estimated at very little un-
der S950O0OOOO In other words, the
agricultural industries Of the country
expend considerably more tlaa one
third Of the total value Of the products
Of farm and forest in Transporting the
same not 70 the consumers. bu. only TO
the points Of shipment by rail Of water
The COS. of this transportation, which
is wholly borne by the farmers, &C
cord.ng to the statement referred To-,
amounts 30 twice the total earnings Of
the railway companies from freights
uDon the same class Of merchandise.
The establishment in this country Of
q system of roads which should even
d.s.antly approach in perfection the
splendid highways Of other civilized
countries would doubtless be a hercu-
lean task: but the necessity Of s-renu-
GUS and continued efforts in this d.rec-
ton has become manifest. The ques-
ton IS a vital one to farming commun:-
ties. 1t involves not merely the conven-
fence of local travel, the provision Of
r:dable paths for bicycle tourists, or the
Introduction Of horseless carriages, but
upon an early solution Of the problem
may depend the future Of cur agrcul-
tural industries themselves. 1t has
been estimated by competent auJhori-
ties -ha. two-thirds Of the cost OF haul
age Of farm products. or about $685.
O00000 per aunum. could be saved by
road Improvement. This is nearly
thrice the amount Of the ordinary an
nual expenditures of the United States
government. exclusive Of pensions; and
in these days Of close competition the
retention Of their markets by Ameri-
can agr.culturists may depend upon the
possibility of saving the excessive cost
of carrying their products over the
common roads to points of shipment.

American wOOl-grOwers may thank
their stars that the Wilson bill was

manufacturers must have for mixing

lnue In the business of making modern

can wool was impossible. The Amer
lean manufacturer could not pay it and
compete with his foreign rival who had
the pick of the worlds wool free of tax.
Under the policy Of free wool in the
present tariff. the case is different, the
American wooden industry has revived
from a stagnaUon under the Mckinley
wool tax that closely resembled death.
and is greater and more prosperous to-
day than ever before I'm rs history.
AS the American wool-grower is solely
dependent upon the American wooden
manufacture. the prosperity of the one

Wool THAI under the Mckinley bill sold
as low as T. and II cents is now bring
ing 20 cents. A Wheeling firm recently
bought $4,000 pounds at the latter price
IN Claysv.ue Pa. and about the same
tine a similar amount az the same price
was purchased by the same firm in Ohio.
Considering the general low price Of
farm products. this IS as complete a
v-ndicac.ou of the Democratic policy Of
cree wool as could be desired
