STANLEY oREDGiNGs.

The dredge is still working
and from appearances is doing a
good business.
About 10000 head of sheep are
now grazing in the Stanley
country. Tne sheep will remain
here until about Oct. 1st, when
they will be driven to the Short
Line railroad and shipped to
|eastern markets.
Quite a number of ranches
have been located here lately by
people from Snake river. Rocky
bar and Atlanta. 1t looks as
Though Stanley would soon be
settled up.
George Knight has just arriv-
led from HALEY with two 10 horse
teams loaded with merchandise
. for NJ. j. Stohrer. Mr.. Stohrer
says trade is dull but he sells a
good many goods just the same.
Henry Sturkey has gone to
Boise with their summers clean
| up of gold dust. The clean up is
said to be very large.
At Robinson Bar there is what
might be called a freak of nature.
Two years ago last spring K. ID.
Williams, proprietor of the Rob
inson Bar station, sowed about 20
acres of red clover. The clover
came up all right and last year
two heavy crops of red clover
hay were cut. This year there
can hardly be trace of red Glow
er found in the field, and in the
place of the red clover a giant
growth of white clover has
sprung up. The writer measured
the height of the white clover and
found it to be two feet high. The
blossoms are large than the rec
clover blossoms, but the leaf is
smaller. Another strange feature
is the white clover stands incred
IDLY thick on the ground. Mr..
Williams is quite enthusiastic
about it. The field should cut A
tons of tirst-class hay. 1t look:
as though a new species of clover
had been evolved. 20. T.

SAN DIEGO OIL Fields.
Large Amount of Land Has Been
Leased In That Section.

San Diego, Tex, March 16.-On
the first of this month the party
having the development of the oil
territory at the Piedras Pintas,
Duval county in charge unloaded
several carloads Of material at Duval
Station on the Texas & Mexican
Railway aud began the erection of
a derrick and placing engines and
boilers, preparing to drill down
into the bowels of the earth and
demonstrate that oil can be had in
this section by going deep enough.
1t is expected that the drilling will
begin Within a fortnight.
Parties representing COrsicana
and Beaumont people are here leas-
ing lands. They seem we'll pleas
ed at their success so far having
secured something like 100000
acres of land in the vicinity Of
Piedras PintaS.
1t is claimed by those versed in
the matter of oil country, there are
strong indications all over this

section of the country, in several
different places both in this county
and adjoining counties, oil has been
found in small quantities at depth
running from fifteen feet to six
hundred feet; and the tests that
have been made of the samples have
shown that the quality is of high
grade illuminating oil.
While it is not expected that au-
other great gusher like the one at
Beaumont will be struck in this
field, yet the surface indications
are very fiattering and indicate tina.
a great oil field exists somewhere
in this southwestern portion of the
country, aud should the developer
fail to find oil at first, il is more
than probable that arteSian water
will be found in sufficient quantity
to be used for irrigation which alone
would be worth thousands of dol
lars to the people Of this section.
At Piedras Pintas where the present
well is being drilled there is a val
ley of ab0ut six hundred acres of
as fine farming land AS can be
found anywhere, the greater part
of which is now in cultivation and
with water to irrigate with in place
of raising cotton as at present,
there could be raised all kinds of
vegetables and thus revolntionize
the agricultural interest.
