In a report entitled Record
of Deep Well Drilling for 1901"
the United States Geological Sur.
vcy presents the results Of It's
first six months work in the sys.
tematic collection Of well records
and samples. This report is the
first of a proposed series of an
nual publications.
The Importance of accurate
records Of behring's was early rec.
.ognized by the more enterprising
of the drillers and by certain
companies operating in oil and
gas. Among the many ways in
which well records are of value
the following may be mentioned;
To the oil and gas driller they
furnish information as to Cd the
best point for locating the well,
cd the depth of the supposed
productive bed, CD the character
of the material to be penetrated,
"a the amount of water which
will be encountered, (5) the
amount of casing required, and
Co the limit of depth to which it
is desirable to drill. The rec
ords also show the cost of these
wells and the quantity and quail
ity of the supplies which they
furnish. To drillers and owners
of water wells the same informa-
tion is supplied, but with them
the items affecting the cost are,
ION account of the lower value of
the product, of increased impor-
lance, and questions of head,
quantity, and quality Of supply
again come to the fore. To pro
spective owners records are val
liable, as they show the results
obtained by others and the prob
abilities of success of new ven
lures. They are of assistance to
the geologist also, as they help
him to a more thorough under
standing of the geology of the
district, which in turn enables
him to answer with greater in
telligence the numerous ques-
tions constantly referred TO him
by drillers, well owners, and
others.
All the records that were re.
ceived during the year Of 1904,
accompanied by complete sets of
samples, are presented in this
report, as are also a considerable
number furnished by drillerS,
contractors, well owners, etc,
representing other completed
wells. The report does not,
however, include all records fur.
nished the Survey. Many conf
dental records were furnished
by oil companies and others in.
terested in the development of
oil or mineral lands and can not
be published. Other records
will be compiled and embodied
in reports on special regions,
which will be published later.
This report was prepared by
Messrs. NJ. L.. Fuller and Il. T..
Lines. 1t includes also certain
material compiled from notes
furnished by Mr.. A. c. Veatch,
who formulated the system used
by the Survey for the collection
of well records and samples.

Real Elixir of Life.

Contentment is the real elixir Of life.
It is the real fountain from which
flow the waters of perennial youth.
Sometimes it costs an effort, a tremen-
dous effort, to say it is all right, but
the man or woman who can say it is
much better off for thus looking at
the sunny side Of the world than the
person who harbors a grievance against
all mankind and walks through the
world burdened with the somber
thoughts Of bis disappointments. The
discontinued perhaps never stop to
think how much worse off they could
be; that no matter how few their
pleasures, there are those in the world
who have fewer Or none at all; that,
given health and strength and the full
possession of the Senses they are ad-
vantaged and blessed in the race of
existence.

Word and Works Magazine.

Rev. Fri r. Hicks, the noted weather
forecaster of St. Louis, Mo-, has for
eighteen years past edited a monthly
journal of national reputation, Word and
Works. We have received Word and
Works at this Office and can testify to
its value as family monthly. Prof.
Hicks has just decided to change his
family monthly to magazine form and
with the October number the monthly
will be beautiful magazine profusely
illustrated with half-tone engravings.
One of the early fall numbers of this
magazine Will contain Prof. Hicks
weather forecast for the first six months
of 1906. The January, 1906, number
will contain the weather forecasts for
the second six months of 1906. These
two numbers of the magazine will take
the place of the Hicks Almanac, which
will be discontinued. The matter that
has heretofore been published in the
Hicks Almanac each year will now be
found in the magazine and much more.
The price of the Word and Works Mag
azine is 10 cents per copy or S1.00 per
year. Send 10 cents for copy of the
October number, which gives you full

forecasts for a year in advance will now
