HURT
BY A GAS
EXPLOSION
STOBAUGH AND WELLS OF
CRESCENT SERIOUSLY
BURNED

f. A. Bonner brought the news
to Guthrie this morning of an acci-
dent which happened yesterday to
two citizens of Crescent who are
well known in Guthrie.
Stanley Stobaugh. assistant cash
ier in the Bank of Crescent ana
George Wells, the well known dep
uty sheriff for that part of the
county, were out on the Stobaugh
farm near Crescent, Saturday, work
ing on gasolene engine used to
pump water from a Well The en-
CINE would not work and George
went down into the well to find the
trouble He found trouble, all
right 1t was dark at the bottom
and he lighted a match Events
that followed George VIII never re-
count other than from aearsay.
When he regained consciousness he
was lying on the ground several
wards from the well; the eXplOs-
ion had thrown him out of the well.
He was badly bruised ana burned
as was also Stanley Stobaueh.
Both were burned about the heads
and arms and are in a dangerous
condition. ~ is remarkable that
they escaped from instant death.
The explosion was caused by
gasoline seepage from the engine
and confined in the bottom of the
well. When the match was struck
the explosion necessarily resulted.

PRODUCE BY MAIL.
Plan to Supply New Workers Directly
From the Farms.

New York, Dec. 27.-AppIas, fresh
eggs and country butter direct from
the farm to the housewife by parcels
post, to reach half million homes in
New York and it's environments-this
is the newest plan, announced today
of Mrs. Julian Heath, president of the
National Housewives league.
Mrs. Heath says her plan will be-
come operative, to some extent, on
January 1, when the mails are opened
to parcels post packings. Mrs. Heath's
plan to eliminate the middle man in
wolves the creation i a registry COM
mittee. Already this committee has
begun its preliminary work of listing
all farmers with the fifty mile zone.
The rolls will be open to all house
keepers who wish to avail them selves
of an opportunity to obtain fresh pro-
duce at a small cost. The league will
work in harmony with the state
grange.
The resultant economy, Mrs Heath
believes, will be dual inasmuch as the
farmers will receive more for their
produce than they now receive from
dealers, while the consumers will get
fresh food at lower prices than those
now charged. The plan will be ex-
tended, Mrs. Heath said, to include
vegetables in season. Similar registry
bureaus will be opened next Wednes-
day in the principal cities of the coun-
try. Mrs. Heath declared.
