EVERY KANSAS COUNTY MAY
BE PROSPECTED FOR OH

There is every reason to believe
that the state of Kansas will be
covered by oil and gas prospeetors
within the next year or two and one
man who has inst returned from
Tulsa stated that he had talked with
several Of the head men of large
companies and they said they be-
lieved that several wells would be
put down in every county from the
Oklahoma line to the Nebraska
line, says the Junction City Union.
The present price of oil is caus-
ing the prospecting and besides sew
eral large companies which are
planning to sink wells, several in
dependent spectators are going to
get in the game.

the notices given out by State Fish

the effect that all persons who want
to hunt must have licenses, recent
ly wrote the editor asking If a man

these words:
"A man can hunt on his own
farm without having a hunting IL

BRANDON OUGHT TO HAVE
LIGHTS-READ THIS
LETTER
LETTER

Crystal Springs, Miss. Jan. A,
1916 Editor Brandon News:
The writer was in your city a
few days ago, and noting that
you had no system OF lighting, |
talked with a few of the citizens
regarding electric lights for the
town. Several told me that they
would appreciate very much hav-
ing such conveniences, but that
the town is too small and the ex-
pense Of installation and opera
ton would be too great for a
plant to be self sustaining. A few
years ago, such a statement
would have been we'll founded,
but today, with the wonderful
Edison improvements in the cleo
tric globe and with the great i'm
provement in electrical machin-
cry that we now have, a plant in
the town of Brandon, can not
only be made self-sustaining, but
can easily be made to pay a
profit.
In order to give you some idea
of the Improvement in electrical
apparatus, it is necessary to use a
few technical terms, which, how
ever, will try to make clear.
Water when sold through a
meter, is measured and sold by
the one thousand gallons. Elec-
trio current when sold through
the meter is sold by the one
thousand watts Il K. W., and is
charged for by the one thousand
watts, commonly mentioned as
killowatt-kilo, meaning one
thousand, and the great i'm
provement mentioned above In
the electric globe, is the fact
that where the old style carbon
filled globe used from 55 to 70
watts for a 16-candle power
