Good Well at TidiOute.

There is a lot of interest among local
oil men respecting the fourth sand strike
on the Clifton farm along Tidioute creek
mention of which has been made once or
twice in the correspondence of the Her
aid. This we'll, which belongs to George
l. )we of jamestown and Messrs. Carna-
han aud Buckln of Tidioute, is more
than a week old and is still producing,
according to reports of yesterday, better
than 100 barrels a day. 1t is amber oil
from the fourth sand and the pay is
reached at 439 feet, very shallow for this
territory. 1t makes a thorough test COM
parstively easy and inexpensive. If the
we'll is not freak, and its performance
to date indicates nothing of that order, it
may mean the opening of an important
pool. From the manner of its produc-
ton there is reason 10 believe that it is
coming from large pool of oil, while the
sand possibilities are almost limitless.
Mr.. Lowe has been strangely fortunate
in his oil ventures of the past two or three
years. huuihk Sohio "oiiS III tho h0iBh
borhood of Tonesta that are far above the
average of prod uction in that field. Mr..
Carnahsn is brother of M. s. Carnshsn
of Pleasantville, an operator we'll known
in the local field. Mr.. Buck lin is lum-
herman and fnsncer of the Warren
county village. .-Titusville Herald, 7th.
The Tid ioute News says there was 20 feet
of "sugar sand" in the we'll and that it
was the fourth we'll put down on the
tract, the first being dry, but as the line
was extended north the better became
the show. There is not much chance for
an oil boom, all the territory being al
ready under lease, but the strike has
stirred up other operators to activity.

Dwelling House Burned at Nebraska,

The dwelling house occupied by John
Richards, at Keppeltown, Just above Ne
braska, with all its contents. was COM
pletely destroyed by fire Monday night.
The family had gone to church at Ne
braska and when they returned about
$3.50 found the house wrapped in flames,
which had gained such headway that no
one could enter the building. A gas fire
had been left burning in the kitchen stove
and the fire is supposed to have caught
from an over-preasure of gas coming on.
Mr.. Richards and family lost all their
household goods and the loss. between
5000 and $500, is heavy one to them, as
they had no insurance. The house was a
two-story one and was owned by n. d,
Collins. 1t was valued at $500 and there
was no insurance.

SANITARY PRECAUTIONS
At Arkansas State Fair for Safety
 and Comfort of Visiting Public.

Although the Oaklawn fair grounds at Hot Springs are high and dry, and are not used during the year for any thing except the State Fair in Octo Der, being therefore in good natural sanitary condition, yet the manage ment will have the entire grounds. including the exposition palaces and stock stables, thoroughly cleaned and disinfected just before the fair opens. Thus the visiting public will be invited into a clean house. The main buildings will also be freshly painted and otherwise made attrac- tive. Exposition palace is equipped with a large toilet room, equipped equal to the best hotels, with water pipes and sewer system. for the free use of the public.

HOW CHINA LIVES.

No natural resource is too trifline to be turned to account by the teem- ing population. The sea is raked and strained for edible plunder. Sea. weed and kelp have place in the larder. Great quantities of shellfish no bigger than ones finger-nail, are opened and made to yield a food that finds it's way far inland. The fungus that springs up in the grass after a rain is eaten. Fried sweet potato vines furnish the poor mans table. The roadside ditches are bailed out for the sake of fishes no longer than one's finger.
 Careful observers say that four ffths of the conversation among common Chinese relates to food. Edward Alsworth Ross, in Century.

 As a matter of cold-bloOded, un- feeling mathematics, 1t is an AB- SOLUTE ACCESSIBILITY for any man to locate seven straight wells in seven different fields in succession by guessing!
 One of these days we will tell you the story of A. P. LangstOn, Oil Expert, who. DID THAT VERY THING, in company with William Olander, Manager of this Company.
 So, when Oil Expert Langston tells us that there is probably 4,0O0-barrel-a-day well on a cer- tain piece of property which we have under lease, We HAVE FAITH IN HIM.
 Let us assume that We are RIGHT in our belief in this man. Let us assume that We get the REAL OIL. at the depth and on the spot he has named.
 What has that to do with you?
 Just this: In one year of 365 days, (for these oil wells flow Sundays and holidays as well as work days), We would produce 2,190,000 barrels of oil. (Shut your eyes for a moment. Picture to yourself a barrel of Oil-then ten. then a hundred. then a thOuS- and. then TEN THOUSAND then ONE HUNDRED TIMES THAT-and then TWICE THAT. Then add on a hundred and ninety thousand mOre).

FARM STOCK 100 YEARS OLD.
Bridges for Pack Horses-A Famous "Pie Pointer"-Great
 Flocks of Geese.

Sir Walter Gilbey has brought to- gether number of interesting facts concerning the live stock of the farm. Bleeding. the stock remedy for equine ills of every kind. was "~Gcticed until comparatively recent times The Essex farmers used to bleed their animals regularly in spring and autumn as late as the year 1885. and in some districts if was continued until about 1850.
 But veterinary surgery did not em- brace the study of cattle and sheep diseases at all Treatment of sick cattle was referred to the l ocal ''ieech." who. to quote writer of the time. knows as much of the diseases of animals as the beast tO attend which he is sent for"
 Arthur Young writing in l770 reck- oned the total of cattle in England at over 2.s0O.OOO. including 6S4.000 draught cattle The fact that some 4.S00. .000 cattle are now owned in England indicates the change in the cattle breeding industry during hun dred years There are no reliable figures. Sir Walter says. to show what the horse population was at that time.
 Apart from coaching. every country gentleman drove or rode in the good old days. The farmer and commer- cial traveller travelled on horseback ar drove a gig Goods in out of the way parts of England were still car ried on strings of pack horses. The importance of the latter as a means of transport is shown bv the old pack horse" bridges still remain ing over the streams in various parts of England They are wide enough tO allow a laden horse to pass. hut too narrow for carts.
 Some curious examples are supplied by Sir Walter Gilbev of the inteili gence of the pig. One of the most remarkable examples is furnished by the famous pig pointer" black SOW. which two kings Keepers in the New Forest trained in a fortnight to find game. point and back almost as we'll as pointer. The excellent scenting powers of the pig are. as is well known, utilized by French truffle finders. who train young swine to find the truffles. buried as they are few inches below the soil.
