KELLER GAS YIELD
 IS l87 MILLION FEET
CLEAR CREEKS NEW WELL
Brought in Friday With 1S,OOO,O ,OOC Feet, Increases Production of
 Crawford County Field.

Van Buren, Aug. 5.-Drilling with
 greatest difficulty, in very hard for
 mation at depth of 2,53O feet, the Clear Creek Oil and Gas Company No. 8 well, on the s. E. Montgomery farm, section 32-9-30, was producing
 in the neighborhood of 18,2O0,0OO feet of gas Friday. It was believed last night that efforts to make the hole deeper would be stopped.
 Clear Creek No. entered the Kib- Ter sand Thursday night late, at a depth of 2,010 feet. When only a short distance into the formation the production jumped from 3,000,000 feet-obtained from new sand struck at depth of 1881 feet and passed through at depth of 2,000 feet-to a guaged flow of 15,O00,0OO feet. At midnight the drill was still working 2,025 feet down, but was making no progress. At that time it was concluded to suspend drilling and shut in the test, but Friday morning another try at deepening the hole was made, with the result that the we'll was sent down five feet further by noon. The hardness of the formation, strong gas pressure, and inability to keep water in the hole, however, will probably necessitate suspension of operations late in the afternoon.
 The bringing in of the Clear Creek No. increases the total daily pro- duction of the Clear Creek Company to 75,900,000 cubic feet and once more puts that firm at the head of the com panies operating in the local field, in the point of gas above ground. The total daily production of the Kibler field is increased to 1S7, 7,150,000 cubic feet.
 Clear. Creek No. 8 is unique in the fact that the Kibler sand was struck in this test at considerably less depth than in any other test so far drilled in the local territory, and in the fact that new sand was discov- cred at depth a little short of 2,OOO feet. Although this sand is not an producer in the we'll just completed, it may develop, in tests drilled nearby, into very profit able formation.

In America we may come to be as
proud If some Of our floor coverings,

and the past seasons have marked a

The Persian silk rugs, reproduced in
designs from Oriental rugs, are wonder
full reproductions Of a beautiful sheen,
said to be absolutely fast in color. The
sizes of these rugs range from Hx54
inches to 9x20 feet and upwards.
For carrying out the motifs and color

These rugs rank among the highest class

By ADnr MENpu.

Pilgrims start out from Cairo once a
year carrying a narvelously wrought
carpet to Mecca. These pilgrims are
escorted by a military escort, and their
journey is carefully guarded. Once a
year they also return with the old carpet
which has been made douhly sacred by
its sojourn in the Holy City. The maxi
ing of this carpet Is intrugted to one
family. 1t is male of tilk and lined
with &C ton, as anything made entirely
Of silk Is prescribed by the Koran, may
be used. The carpet Is left at the Kaaba
IA box-Shaped stone building. Few
persons except Mohammedans have ever
seen the Kaaba, for those who are not
followers of Mohammed enter It at the
risk of their lives
If one can afford an Oriental rug, he
must look at it from three different
standpoints-art value, color and de-
sign. For the value based on its rarity
and then from its utility standpoint
The fnenesS and the value of rug, as
with the cashmere shawl, is measured by
the number of knots to the square inch.
A SkiIIful weaver can tie from twelve to
fourteen knots minute-from 1000 to
5000 knots day.

To meet the demand for the black and
white vogue, rugs with black barkgro und
have fine patterns in gray or taupe-
others are striking and original with just
plain fields OF gray or taIpe with four
inch black borders.
Reseda green, mulberry, French gray,
brown, putty, color and blues seem to be
the favorite eulors, for floor coverings.
Seamless chenille rugs come in plain
with two-tone borders, all-over designs
and in Oriental reproductions A seam
less chenille rug Of tan-brown and boz
der with an all-over Chinese blue fig-
ure in the center would add grace and
dignity to room. These rugs may be
ordered in any size or practically any
color combinations.
The Bundhar Wilton Rug is surely an
innovation, and fits in we'll in odd-shaped
rooms. It is of extra heavy pile, heavy
as hand tufted and quite outrfvals the
best importations. Of usual merit, it
fits well in room with bay window,
and probably is the most talked of, Of
the new carpet offerings.
Beautiful loom-tufted rugs, with
all the lustre color effects of the Oriental
rugs, are to be had at moderate cost.
Good service is insured by the long,
silky, shiny Chinese wool used, which
gives the fabric a resilieuey, but insures
durability.

What to Do to Get Fat
and Increase Weight
The Real Cause Of Thlnness

Most people eat from four to six
pounds OF good solid fat-making food
every day and still do not increase in
weight one ounce, while on the other
hand many of the plump, chunky
folks eat very lightly and keep gain
ing. all the time. It's all bosh to say
that this Is the nature Of the individ-
ual. 1t isn't natures way at all.
Most thin people stay thin because
their powers of assimilation are de-
fective. They absorb just enough of
the food they eat to maintain life
and a semhlance Of health and
strength. stutIlng won't help them.
A dozen meals day won't make
them gain single "stay there"
pound, All the fat-producing ele-
ments OF their food Just stay there
In the intestines until they pass from
the body as waste. What such peo-
pie need Is something that will pre-
pare these fatty food elements SO that
their blood can absorb them and de-
posIt them all about the body
something too, that will multiply
their red blood corpuscles and In
crease their blood's carrying power
For such condition It is we'll to
recommend eating Sargol tablet
with every meal. Sargol is not, as
some believe. a patent drug, but Is
simply careful combination of six
or the most effective and powerful
assimilative and flesh building ele-
ments known to chemistry. 1t Is alb
solutely harmless. yet has been Won
derfullv effective and a single tablet
eaten with each meal often, accord
ing to reports of users, has the effect
OF increasing the weight Of thin
man or woman three to five pounds
a week. Sargol Is sold by all good
druggists everywhere on q positive
guarantee Of weight increase or
money back.-Advertisement.

Choosing the Floor Coverings for the summer HI

A plain velvet carpet had the gtairI
carpet used for It's border, which may
be q good idea TO initiate.
Administer rugs always give perfect
satisfaction, and this year there are
many new patterns and designs. A good
carpet sweeper and not q broom should
be used on a new rug. Il this is done,
the life of the rug will be prolonged
and the pattern viii be preserved until
the last vesti2e is worn out. An Ak
minister rug should not be beaten, but
should be shaken or cleaned with a
vacuum cleaner.
Scotch. art rugs, homespun rugs and
soft velvet cotton rugs are sure to give
the greatest returns for the small amount
expended.
The sanitary and comfort advantages
of linoIeum are not only considered for
the kitchen, pantry and bath, but also
the bare patterns for every room in the
house. Tile effects, mosaic patterns,
wood patterns and carpet effects are
much in demand.
American fax has been turned into
successful floor fabrics. Linen rugs
come in wide range of colors and pat
terms and are good choice for the sum-
mer home. Willow-grass rugs maintain
their reputation for outdoor and indoor
furnishings, and show a wide range of
carefully blended colors. Quality, de-
sign, color and fitness are four requisites
to be considered by the conservative rug
buyer when buying rugs either for the
town or country house.
Crex rugs have sense of freshness
and cleanliness about them. Fibre rugs
in herringbone weave, either in plain
'eolors or those having a border design
and small medallions are recommended,
Cheerfulness exernptihed and smooth Of
finish is Crex rug with q red scroll
border and deep red band.

during the FIRE season.
Extension of the Work.
In the year 1913, when the feder-
al government extended its first CO.
operation to assist the state in pro-
tecting the forests from fire. only
thirteen counties were included in the
cooperative area, viz: Braxton,
Greenbrier, Grant. Hampshire,
Hardy. Mineral, Nicholas, Pendleton,
Pocahontas, Preston, Randolph,
Tucker and Webster.
These counties were considered the
most important because they includ-
ed the watersheds OF the important
navigabIe rivers In the state, the pro-
lection of which Ii the principal OBJ
ject Of the United States government.
BY late ruling, however, the
whole state of West Virginia has
been denominated watershed OF
some nhvigable stream. and the CO.
operation OF the federal government
may be extended to the whole state.
The government will not allow It's
funds to be used except in a cooper
alive manner. The stnte must spend
at least an equal amount and the
property owners assist in this work
In order to secure federal aid.
