One OF the reasons why the San
Luis valley farmers like the field
pea about as well as any OF the
leg1mes is because OF its power to
imbibe nitrogen from the air through
the enlargement on the roots called
tubercles which are plainly shown.
The soil receives as much nourish-
ment as 1t gives and in this was II is
not a case of all going ou: and nothing
coming in. The Wyoming station ad-
vises ranchers to raise a crop OF
field peas for forage anywhere on
earth except in alkali regions. Their
culture is about like that of the gen
eral grain. The San Luis valley peo-
pie are experimenting TO find the
most suitable variety OF pea for their
conditions. Thus far nothing has
done better than the old Mexican var
iety but 1t is somewhat deficient in
size and experiments are now going
on and experiments are perfect. They
have a cross between the Mexican and
the Canadian which is called the Colo
rado Golden and It serves very well
but as In all other attempts in human
effort they want something better and
will get 1t in course OF time. When
1t comes to originating new ideas In
agriculture the Coloradoans lead the
world.

GAS IN OAKLAND.
Flow Is Struck at Depth Less
Than LOO Feet.
This Can Be Increased by Shoot
ing the Well.
VHUTH nn"r NnmHV5Up
WILL DRILL ANOTHER
Work Begins ON New Hole Next
Monday Morning.
Company Has Lease on Lucas
and Weaver Tracts.

The promoters who found gas in
Oakland Monday afternoon, today an
nounced that they will shoot the well
in a few days. Thirty-three feet OF
clear gas sand without a break, was
tapped. The we'll was drilled on the
property belonging to John Newell, on
Iowa, between Michigan and Forest
avenues and was found to carry the
heaviest body of Cherokee shales OF
Montgomery county, even better than
that found in Lynn county, which aver
ages the best of any field in Kansas.
The Cherokee shale is the home of
gas.
The well is less than LOO feet in
depth and the estimated flow will be
from two and one-half to five million
feet every twenty-four hours. The
management also has requested that
the state geologist send a man here to
take the actual measurements OF the
present supply.
the people of Oakland but they have
found a good thing. They feel highly
elated over the fact that Oakland is
the possessor of an abundant supply
of gas.
William Draut and A. w Ward, two
residents of Oakland and two men who
have been anxiously awaiting the find
ing of gas were on the scene when the
product materialized. They were
nearly overcome with gas, but neither
is serious.
The shares of the Capital Oil and
Gas company have been sold readily,
ever since the company was organized
and drilling started. A rather queer
incident happened late Monday after
noon. when one of the stockholders be-
came uneasy as to the prospects and
sold his shares to c. r. Cole. This was
lust one hour before the gas was
found. This same company has
lease on the Lucas and Weaver tract,
where the oil oozes from the river
bank, there is such an abundant
amount in the ground.
This gas well will mean much to the
city of Oakland 1t will build it up
and bring into it many manufacturing
establishments on account OF the
cheapness of fuel.
The drilling machine. in all prob
ability. will stay in Oakland and con-
tinue drilling new holes as fast as the
men and money can be obtained. Work
will be commenced on another well
next Monday morning.

coNGREssMEN AROUSED.
Those at McAlester Promise Some
Drastic Legislation.

McAlester, Okla, Aug. 9.-The news
of the shooting of Mayor Gaynor
caused profound sorrow among the
congressman assembled here at the
Gore investigation. -.=-.-
MIR. Gaynor has shown himself to
be one of the ablest men this country
possesses" said Congressman E. w
Saunders of Virginia. THE appall-
ing attack on him shows the neces-
sity for drastic legislation by con-
gress to stamp out the class of un-
desirable foreigners in this country
Il am prepared to stand by the Sc
verest measure of this character that
can be enforced"
Congressman John H. Stephen Of
Texas said:
II propose to introduce into the
next congress a bill to deport every
anarchist in this country. 1 propose
they shall be segregated on some
island in the Philippines, whether they
be of foreign or American birth.
'sI shall also demand radical
change in the immigration laws.
Gaynor is one of the ablest Demo-
Gratis his party possesses.
CONGRESSMAN p. P. Campbell of
Kansas said:
I'VE ought now to be sufficiently
convinced of the necessity for a COM
plete revision of our immigration
laws AS a public man with progress
sive ideas, Mayor Gaynor belongs as
much to the west as to the east. The
high principles which he lived up to
have helped to improve every public
official in the country.
Senator Thomas P.nGore of Okla
homa said:
''I know Mayer Gaynor personally.
The loss of his service to this country
would be severe blow to progressive
craftsmanship. Gaynor has shown
himself to be courageous enough to
be a man first, and the member of a
political party afterward-"
