From year to year 1t is forcibly
brought home 10 North Dakota peo-
pie that winters are growing less
rigorous and that life is becoming
more pleasant for us all. Old
timers from all parts of the county
are continually remarking on this
fact. For the past fifteen years the
weather conditions have been much
better in winter than during any
former period. Whatever the cause
may be the result is evident To all.
This year we are well into the WIN
ter months. and fall weather has
been in evidence. No snow, few
cold days. and The resultant saving
Of expense and discomfort has been
our portion. Climatic conditions
are no doubt changing and increased
settlement is undoubtedly to be con-
sidered. AT any rate. from year 10
year we may expect more pleasant
conditions and North Dakota IS a
state for home-making becomes
more popular.

OIL AT SULPHUR ROCK
Work of Boring Progressing Satisfactory and Prospects.
 Are Greatly Encouraged.

Citizens of Sulphur Rock transacting business i'll Bates vile today report the oil situ- ation in their town encouraging and the work of boring for the fluid progressing rapidly and in most satisfactory manner.
 For a number of years there has existed the belief that t he land in the vicinity of Sulphur Rock contained mineral sub- stance. Not until about four years ago, however, was there any effort made to investigate the identity of the substance, at which time some capital was in terested and operations in a small way started, parties sink ing a we'll which disclosed de- velopments indicating that the land was rich with oil. Samples were sent to geologists, who pronounced the soil productive of oil proving to be of an excel lent grade. Biologists and assayists came to Sulphur Rock and made investigations and chemical analysis of the soil, returning an encouraging re- port.
 The work of development stop ped after a short period of oper- ation four years ago, anrd not until recent months was the work actively resumed. One company, composed of capital ists residing in Indiana, are en- gagged in boring for oil now at a point about one mile northeast of Sulphur Rock. Many be- lieve this company to be the Standard Oil Company under an assumed operating name, but reliable parties in close touch with the situation, state posi-
