TOYAH COMPANY RIG
READY To START
OPERATIONS
Corsicana Company to Have
Well 1000 Feet Deep in
go Days.

Toyah, Tex, Dec. 27.-The Toyah Oil
and Pipe Line company has completed
its rig, and will begin operations at
once.
Permanent quarters have been es-
tablished on the property near the
center of section Il, block II, and
every preparation deemed necessary
has been made to carry out opera
lions extensively.
This company is receiving daily
large shipments by freight of oil well
machinery. which is carried to the
field Immediately after arrival. and it
is said by experienced oil men that
they have seen.
1t is the intention of this company
to drill to the depth of 1000, feet, but
it is expected that immense quaint
ties of oil will be struck at much
shallower depth.
r. D. Shaw, general manager of the
C9rsicana Petroleum company, is here
to look after the interest of his COM
pany. He made a general inspection
of the fields while here. made some
purchases and obtained leases on land
in and about this territory, and or
dered considerable improvements
made on the rotary rig, which is seven
miles north of Toyah.
Mr.. Shaw states that he expects to
have a well dug to the depth of 1000
feet within the next so days. The
company's geologist states that the
second strata of oil bearing sand
should be encountered at the depth OF
1900 feet

RECLAMATION IS
TO BE HURRIED
CONTINUED From rags one,

more work than was originally contem-
plated"
Under existing regulations the report
sets forth, the construction charges must
be returned to the reclamation fund in
10 equal annual payments. This, it is
said, is regarded as a hardship by the
settlers on some projects, who express
a desire for a series of graduated con-
struction payments increasing from /
percent the first year to IA percent or
Is percent the 10th year. Should this
suggestion be generally adopted, it is
pointed out, it would mean a delay of
several years in the return of the first
half of the investment and correspond
ing delay in the completion of other
work
''On some of the projects in the semi
arid regions" say the engineers, "such a
modification in the terms of payment
may be necessary to prevent an absolute
failure of the project, but the general
adoption of system of graduated pay
ments is not believed to be necessary or
advisable"

EXTRA SESSION IN AUGUST.

Denver, March 1T has been
announced that the extra session
of the legislature will not be
called until some time in August.
The governor thinks he sees a
beautiful little chance of holding
the county conventions over the
heads of the legislators as a club
to force them to carry out the
wishes of the people who elected
them.
OF course many of the Demo
Gratis will want to return, in fact,
practically all of them will ex-
pect denomination at the hands
of their constituents, and the
governor believes that the con-
stituents can threaten the legis-
lators into line.

Recipes.

Tough steaks can be softened to some
extent by treatment with vinegar and
salad oil for few hours before cook
ing. The vinegar softens the tissue
and the oil protects the meat from the
air. Beating or pounding steak is not
the thing to do as it simply gives more
chance for the loss of the juices and
the resulting leatheriness of the meat.
The following recipe makes delicious
fudge. Melt one-quarter of cup Of
butter, add two cups of sugar. one-half
cup of milk, one quarter of cup of
molasses. Boil seven minutes, add two
squares bitter chocolate, stir until
melted and boil seven minutes longer.
Remove from fire and add one cupful
chopped nuts, one cupful Of marshmal-
lows and two tablespoonsfuls of raisins.
Beat till creamy and pour in buttered
pan and set out tn cool.
