DRY GAS FOUND NEAR HAYES
Stanley County Farmer. "Struck"
Gas, and is Utilizing the Same
On His Farm.

1t is reported that dry gas has
been found on farm short dis
lance north of Hayes, Stanley county
1t is not known at what depth the
flow was secured. but the report says
it is sufficient in flow to be utilized
on the farm on which it was secured.
This flow is probably similar to many
which have been found on farms
north Of that city, the flow generally
being found at 200. But no effort
was ever made to conserve the flow
from the wells, and they were al
lowed to stand without any attempt
at casing until the caving in of the
walls shut off the flow of gas.

Firmly All Around.

There was less doing on the local
stock market, but this was not due 50
much To lack OF demand for securities
as because OF the scarcity thereof.
Holders are of the opinion that prices
should be materially higher and they
are waiting for the advance. The fact
that the 81 lection Of the Loeb ticket
for directors Of the Washington Railway
and Electric Company IS assured IL

and should cause a stiff market for the
stock for months TO come. The ticket
has $4,000 shares back OF IL in the proxy
committee, 5000 shares in certain
