CAS- WELL ON Mt.
FRANKLIN FOUND
J. S. Hale Says Has Located
Flow and Is Preparing to
Develop Well. \

J. :. Hale, Of 1882 IL san Antonio
street. is getting down TO brass tacks
on the developemnt of his roaring gas
well'' in the Franklin mountains, some
Is miles northwest of FL Paso. He has
ascertained that he can test for 81
pounds per inch pressure, and that the
gas burns readily
He has enlisted the services Of an e.
perienced coal pocket mining man who
knows something about gas pockets,
and the two are working at cross cut
ting preparatory TO the proposed In
stating of two suction fans to pump
out the gas in a steady stream, if such
a thing is possible.
The only fear on the part of Hale and
/ his partner is that the supply may
prove but a small pocket instead of
valuable source worth working with
suction fans and a pipe line to the city
and enTirons The pressure is too strong
for them to burn out at once by apply
ing torch. and strong enough to keep
burning once set afire despite any ef-
forts the two men could make to put II
out
Five Miles From NatiOns's Ranch.
The location of the roaring gas
we'll" which Hale came upon while he
was prospecting for gold in the Frank
lin mountains a year or so ago, IS
somewhere about five miles northwest
Of NatiOns's ranch. into the range prob
ably Is miles northwest of El PasO
city, ne says. It has northern en-
trance which leads into the side of the
peak, unnamed. for 500 feet before il
comes TO the gas well, which has
soft. sibilant. continuous sound like
ripping brook in the distance
-One hundred feet in from the south
ern entrance of the tunnel-like cave
also brings the prospector to the well.
Hale says. At the junction from the
north and south entrances the work Of
developing the roaring gas well" IS
now going on. with my partner work
ing at it right along from day to day,
and am spending probably two days
a week on the job"
Strict Secrecy.
Hale is guarding the name Of his
partner and states that he has nothing
TO give out for publication Just vet
When the test OF the water in the
spring at the south entrance has been
made, and the test Of the gas itself reg
istered. Hale declares he will report it
slowly at his work o. development. with
his coal mining partner. the outside
world is getting interested in FL Paso's
roaring gas well" and letters by the
score rave arrived from all parts of the
east Texas and other oil countries in
curing for Information on the thing,
including location Some have intimated
their intention of coming TO FL PasO to
start hunting similar wells and strata
Belief generally seems TO be that condi-
tons hereab bouts are such that a find
along this line would not be surprising
Hale's discovery Of gas is under a
200 foot bed Of slate and Ignite, he
says

Mr. AIonden said scientific methods

by effective methods of moisture con-
servation.7
The speaker stated his observations
showed that best results in dry farm

methods OF moisture conserving and
biennial cropping He warned his
hearers against neglect in these re-
spects. saying
Gambling never pays in the long run.
and its hazards are never greater than
when one stakes his enterprise on the
hope that nature Will depart from her

Explaining the mission of the con-

Directly or collaterally our aims and
endeavors embrace almost every phase.
