Up to the year 1888, one man

1905, there is the agent straight,
an assistant who looks after the

agent, a night operator and a
cub. What does that show.

their eyes to the fact that the

twenty feet added to it making
a room adjoining the agents Of

The city's growth since that

has grown in a ratio proportion

the moving spirits ih the de-
velopment of the Anse-la- Butte
oil field, have interested and in

driller, to move his family to that
field and locate there permanent
ly. This means business, serious
ly, as Mr.. Grow is man of large
experience in oil matters, and is
reputed To be one of the most sue
cessful drillers in this section, and
his moving to this field to locate
permanently after he has put
down his first we'll, which in its
unfinished state is flowing about
300 or 400 barrels of oil per day,
is very encouraging, as it Is sure
sign that this field is a good one,
and with the known persistent
determination of the promoters,
and the knowledge of the drilIer,
we eau surely expect an early and
complete development of this field,
which has been for many years in
a state of experiment, or specula-
tion 10y the companies that have
operated there before. The pro-

they will be rewarded, with a field
that will produce oil abundantly.
