At Cleveland-The Pawnee county
field continues to absorb public IN
teress, especially since the Milllkin
OIL company completed the largest
well drilled in the mid-continent Held
the other day, located on the Williams
farm in section 30-2I-S. Report has
it that this well is now making all
the way from l50 to 400 barre!s an
hour, and either amount easily makes
1t "a tremendous advertisement for
the Cleveland district. The PaoVa Oil
company, not to be outdone, has de-
cided to try dose of glycerine In
some of their largest producers, and
the Miller farm No. g. owned by that
company, put 1000 barrels in the
tank the first twenty-four hours, The
location is the farthest south so far
drilled on the east line of the farm.
The Helmick OH company has COM
pleted another big one good for 800
barrels natural location north from
the southeast corner of the Hilmick
farm which is in section 1S-21-S.
This well after the shot ought to
make a 1901 barrel well, so great a
benefit is a little dose of nitro over
there.
E. NJ. Reese, who has charge of
both the PaoNa and the Helmick
property, was one of the very first oil
operators to see the possibility of the
Cleveland district, having gone there
In 1903. Only one man is now living
who was there ahead of him, who
had any inclination to test the coun-
try out for oil. Mr.. Reeses many
friends are glad to know of his sue
cess for the reason that he has been
most obliging and courteous in his
treatment of one and all, and has
earned the good fortune now his by
a thorough knowledge of the game,
learned by hard knocks in the humb-
Ter positions of the calling. 1t Is need
less to remark the property under his
charge, with the vast acreage he con-
trolls, is very valuable.
The Selby Oil and Gas company in
section 36-21-7, will drill in today,
having had trouble with the casing
The well is drilling itself in and the
dope is that 1t will be a gushN. The
Grieves & Murphy well in the same
section is now found to be making
water through the casing, and 1t is
thought it will make a good produc-
er as soon as the water Is shut off.

more or less justified in his adhesion 10 his own methods. You see there are SO many different farms with so many different sorts of soil. that a mans close knowledge of one kind on one farm doesn't always nor often qualify him to tell another man how to handle another sort on another farm.
 As I have so often preached the farmer must learn his own conditions before he can hope to succeed lie can't expect to win out just by i'm itating some other farmer who may work under totally unlike conditions. The way to raise potatoes is to raise 'em. Just how to go at it on creek bottom farm of alluvial overflow, and just how to go at it on a hillside place of wash-y thin soil, are two quite dif- ferent propositions.

 Perhaps you've had the idea, in some lower corner of your mind that all those Aroostook fellows had to do was to throw a few potatoes into the field and dig an immense crop six or eight TWO FARMER
