BORING FOR OIL

]. A. Price, the expert in charge
at Garden Park, ten miles northeast
of this city, was in town a few days
ago, and in reply to the interrogations
of The Record man, stated that a
depth OF 1900 feet had been reached
and that the company, whose capital
is being put into the enterprise, is
hopeful of ultimate success.
Mr.. Price, who by the way, has
been engaged in the oil prospecting
business the greater part of his life
in the Pennsylvania fields, says the
boring at Garden Park will be con-
tinued till strata of granite is
reached or all hope of striking the
Trenton limestone. under which the
oil is always found, has been aban-
doned
Work was begun on the we'll in
question last April and started with
a diameter of nearly eleven inches,
but this has been gradually reduced
until il is little more than half that
size al the present time, this method
being followed in all undertakings of
that character.

Others who have made a study of the

known as "seepage OIL" and has per-
colated through layers of rocks in the
interior of Mother Earth from large

Gated at no very great distance away.
il is to find this storage reservoir
that the local capitalists have put
their money into the oil business. and
if they succeed in uncovering the

is employed has sunk a we'll to a

GAINS IN POST
OFFICE BUSINESS

The traussctions Of the Canon City
postoftice shows constantly increas.
ing growth, the income from the sale
OF postage stamps, stamped envelopes.
wrappers and box rents last month
approximating 81 500, indicating an
annual business of something like
ti7, 90 or $4,000. In consequence of
the free delivery of mail by carrier
ON both sides of the river, the
revenue from box rents is small and
cuts only an insignificant figure in the
income. which is derived principally
from the sale of stamps and stamped
envelopes. The money order business
averages about $1,000 week. bat it
in no wise affects the revenue of the
Office; il being distinct ranch of
the postal business and one from
which the office does not get cent
of income.
August is usually dull month in
the postofficde business, as well as in
enterprises of private nature, and the
transactions last month are highly
gratifying. There is no better index
to the general prosperity of COM
munity and to tho volume of business
done by its citizens, than the post
office revenues.
There are comparatively few places
of the size and population of Canon
City where they are as large as they
are here.

or sub-tropical North America both feed
upon insects. Some plants live but one year.
Others continue to grow for several years.
Others, again, seem endowed with eternal
life.
The nettle protects itself from the too
careless hand by means of poison stings
armed with form,c acid, or the same poison
which produces the evil effect arising from
the bites of ants and spiders. Poison ivy is
another botanical form into which poison
enters. In poison sumach, or poison elder,
dangerous toxic secretion also turks. The
stings of some species fourishing in the
tropics are very acute. Pasture and other
thistles are armed with thorns, as are also
the Irish gorse, the hawthorne and the
orange tree.
The object Of vivid coloring and striking
form in a flower is not merely for mans de-
light, but rather to help the production of
seed. By such means the stupid insects are
attracted to the nectar yielding blossoms,
and, while they rob them of their treasure,
they are, according to the more recent find
ings of botanists, made the unconscious In
struments to fertilze other flowers which
they visit.
The fungi, ferments, molds and microbes
cause blight on fruit, disease and death
among animals and men. Upon them falls
