company had decided still further 20
equip its engines VITA oil burning de-
wees. and II is probable another COM
pany will be formed for the purpose
OF purchasing and operating extensive
oil wells adjacent TO the lines OF the
Santa Fe system
For several weeks, w. G. Nixon,
one OF the executive officials of the
Santa Fe, and Mr.. Goodrich, its oil
expert, have been engaged in examin-
ing oil lands in me vicinity OF Ard
more. |. 4. They are negotiating for
1000 acres of this class of property
and Will sink wells to obtain tne oil.
At the present time. the roads will
purchase only improvements on the
land and secure mineral and agricui'
tural leases unti the land is placed on
the market The officials say that the
oil prouuct will he useu for fuel.
When the Santa Fe first entered the
oil fields OF Texas and California and
supplied it's locomotives with oil nurn.
ing devices /, was stated that nearly
81 600 900 would be saved in fuel on
the lines west OF Albu 'uerque, terri
tory In which coai is exceedingly
scarce. II is now believed that the
company will make use of oil as fuel
on It's lines east OF Albuquerque as far
as Kansas City. II is not improbable
that in the course of time the locomo-
tives on all the lines OF the system
will he equipped with oil burners
While the work of remodelng is de-
cidedly costly. the saving in fuel more
than offsets the outlay.
Asiue from the saving in the cost Of
the fuel. the use of oil on a locomo.
tive is a great advantage TO the engi.
neer When coal is used on heavy
engines such as are used on the San
Ia Fe most of the time of the fireman
is taken up in keeping the frebox
properly filled, and Tor this reason he
is unable to be of much assistance 10
