Developments throughout the
lower southwest fields were unus-
ually light during the past week.
The search for new producing ter
ritory is progressing in a desul-
tory sort of way. Very few, if
any. operations will round out the
summers work with as large a
production as when they began
in the early spring. That this
should be the case is not charge
able to inactivity, for they have
been busy all through the sum-
mer months. The main trouble
has been that the new wells have
have been SO light in the produc-
ton that they could not supply
the diminishing output of the old
wells. 1t has been the rule for
some months to resort to every
experiment to make. new well
produce II It showed the slightest
indication Of oil when drilled
through the sand. In the deep
sand districts it was formerly the
rule to abandon a well if it did
not show for more than a barrel
a day. In many of the old fields,
new rigs have been erected. over
old holes that were abandoned,
though still small producers, when
the market was low. They will
be shot and cleaned out and given
another trial and the aggregate
production in time will be con-
siderable. The average produc-
ton Of the wells completed during
! the week was small.

The large interest which has
been taken in many parts of the
State in the new State Aid Road
Law has made it advisable to
embody in this pamphlet all the
information necessary for Coun-

pathetic tragedy. which occurred ia May,
1856. William Harrison Roman. second son
Of Joseph Roman, was killed by a fall FROM
pole swing, which was suspended from
