securing of over the 100 boxes re-

acter, being presented Thursday eve
ming. Every family in the district
present for all.

This community would like to Of
fer to the county commissioners a
suggestion that some sort Of cheap
plank, V-shaped snow plow be pro-
vided each road district to throw
out the snow from at least one trav-
eled main road turnout the county,
Immediately after snow as we have
at present. 1t seems too bad with
the splendid grades that We have
that automobile travel should stop
at all. A well-packed snow load,
everyone will agree, is PERFECTLY OK
ard the expense should be nominal
We also think in view of the large
license fund obtained, owners OF adj
tomobiles should be entitled to this,
and if it should prove feasible, and
especially as 1t would benefit other
vehicles equally as well.

PROMISE GOOD GAS SUPPLY
Wichita Company Issues Statement
Declaring Ability to Care for Next
Winters Demand.

The Doherty interests have submit
ted to Governor Capper, Attorney
General Brewster and the public utili-
ties commission statement of what
would be done in the event Of the pur-
chase by them of the Kansas Natural
Gas holdings.
The Doherty interests hold the Kan
sas Natural cannot put into effect the
32-cent rate allowed by the federal
courts last decision, since the order
stipulated Y million dollars should be
expended and an adequate supply Of
gas furnished next winter. 1t would
cost the Kansas Natural nearly 4 mil
lion dollars to make the necessary i'm
provements, the Doherty interests as
sert.
The Doherty interests declare they
can supply plenty of gas by the ex-
penditure of million dollars because
of their own lines parallel to the Kan
sas Natural's and reserve supply OBJ
tainable by the building of short pipe
lines. The Kansas Natural can pro-
duce, the Doherty interests say, only
one-half the 140 million cubic feet
needed to supply the demand on a
cold day, and most Of this is bought
from other operators; that the only
place to get new supply of gas is
the Blackwell field and this could not
be done this year, and even then the
gas would have to be purchased by
the Kansas Natural. The Doherty in
terests will guarantee this 14O million
cubic feet every day from December 1
to April 1, if they can get possession
of the Kansas Natural property.
