TO DRILL 3OOO-FOOT WELL
ON CROWN OIL PROPERTY
Ten Texas and Oklahoma Opera
tors to Commence Work
at Once

A transaction involving the imme-
| diate expenditure of several Thousand
! dollars and the drilling of a we'll to a
| depth of 5000 feet, or to such depth
| that oil or gas is produced in paying
quantities on the property of the Crown
Oil company at Midway has been ar
ranged. First papers will be signed
Monday and drilling will begin at once.
Two persons having assumed the con-
tract to sink the well are ten in num-
Der and are active oil producers in the
Texas and Oklahoma fields, being rep
resentatives of the largest producers
and transporters of oil in the south
These gentlemen are organizing the Oil
Producers company and will operate
under that name.
After the Oil Producers company has
fulfilled its contract for drilling the
Crown we'll B. Y. Dawson and May c.
West will deliver to the company their
interest in sixty acres adjoining the
property of the Grown Oil company in
section 30-32-25 at a stated price of $51, -
900, or $3.50 an acre The location of
this land, as well as the land Of the

The advent of the southern operators
in the California oil fields will be
watched with much interest, as will
also the development of the Crowns S

action was needed, applied he full cur
rent to his motors and sent the car
across the tracks just as The train
speeded by behind it. There came near

ENGLISH GIRLS SUPERIOR cUL
 TURF

Two young English girls of good family came to an American college and suffered d good deal from home sickness They explained that there was a great dearth of good talk. The truth is. English girls. from childhood up are trained to listen to their elders They are inured to impersonal- con- versation, and while al first 1t may require some effort to enjoy, m the end habit begets liking. and children accustomed to q certain amount ot grown up talk miss it sadly where 1t lacks.
 The English girls complained that the talk of their college mates was personal marrow. made up of few well worn jokes. scraps of sentences that conveyed meaning only to the ln- itiate. college Gossips. sports. theat- rical news. As q matter of fact. English girls, who are no better edu- cated than American girls. have vast deal more culture. and great deal of it comes from the training which demanded that they suppress their own small tastes and interests, and stretch their intelligence to shar- ing grownuD talk. They have been taught courtesy. self-restraint and adaptability as against the American right to aggressive f-cXploitation.- HarpeT'S Bazaar

RECORD COMPARISON
 OF REALTY TRANSFERS
Notable Increase Over the Volume of
 Business s Year Ago.

The Republican has made several presentations of facts recently from figures secured of the Water Users association. the reclamation service and transactions in realty. The purpose was to demonstrate the error of q few peo- pie who for some reason have been in sisting that "busness is quiet" as com pared with a year ago. Every source of statistical analysis shows the con trarv There are no special campaigns of advertising on. ar any other spec tacular incident for arousinG enthusi- asm. but the merchants and real es- tate men have been moving along with usual regularity. attending to con stantly growing business in most eases.
 Here are a few more figures that bear out the statement secured from secretary Van der Veer of the Water Users association. one of the duties of whose office is to keep track of the daily transfers of realty placed on rec ord and keep the association books posted m in the case of every piece of property changing hands. that iS signed to the association. That. of course. includes the greater part of the transactions in the valley. as there is but a small minority acreage not sign ed to the association and very little movement is taking place in that sort of property.
 During the month of March. 1910. there were l2S transfers of signed prop erty against s6 during the month of March. 1909, or an increase of 4S per cent over last year. the previous ban ner year. During the months of Janu- sry. February and March. 1910. there were 275 transfers of realty. as against 222 during the same months last year. an increase of B transfers.

SECRETARY'S RULING
 ON DESERT ENTRIES
It Is Now No Longer Necessary to lrrisate the Whole Tract to
 Prove Up.

A copy of a recent decision of the deep import to all entrymen on des- ert lands has just been received at the local land office. The decision is in direct opposition tO a clause in the statutes which has formerly governed those wEo make final proofs on des- ert lands. The new regulation pro vides that in making final proof only that part of the land which has been cultivated. namely one-eighth of the whole need be irrigated but it must be shown that there is a water supply for the whole tract.
 The clause of the statute that is af fected by the decision is as follows:
 All of each legal subdivision must be actually irrigated. Therefore. it is not sufficient to state that water has been conducted on each legal subdi vision"
 The case on which the new ruling was made is that of Alonzo. E. Cope of Durango. Colo. Cope attempted to prove up on his desert entry and his proofs were not accepted because a part of his land had not been irri- gated The case was appealed -ev- eral times and finally reached the hands of the secretary of the interior, the final court of appeal The de- cision is couched in the following words:
 Water in arid regions is valuable commercially, and its waste by the ir- rigation of lands unPrepared for any agricultural use, should not be requir- ed as a mere matter of proof that lands can be watered from the system constructed.
 As a general rule. water rights in western states extend only to the amount of water 'beneficially used In fact, the desert land act itself. un- dertakes to limit the right to the use of water to the amount necessary for use, and as the act requires only one eighth of the land to be cultivated. it appears, generally speaking, that the flow of water over the remaining part will be unnecessary waste.
 If there is no other objection appar- ent than that noted. in the said de cision. the entry of Cole should pass to patent and is so decided.
 You are further directed to prepare 2 circular for departmental approval amending the said circular of Novem- beT 90, 1908. in harmony with the view herewith expressed"
 This decision is an important one to Arizona. Several thousand desert en- tries have been made at the local land offile in the past year. and in the future it will not be required of the entrymen to irrigate their entracts and thus waste the water. merely as a proof for the purpose of obtaining patent.
