The Fox district, located in the sec
ond township north of Healdton in
Carter county is probably the most
interesting feature of oil development
in the mid.continent area. Gypsy Oil
Company has drilled through the
heavy gas sand in well No ! on the
Matte Morris farm in section 2S-2-3.
The sand was 220 feet thick and oil
men who have been in all the fields
assert that it is the thickest gas sand
in the United States. There are thick
er oil sands in the Healdton district
than the one mentioned. but there are
no such sands that produce gas eX-
clusively. For the reason that the gas
production was held down by keeping
the hole full of thick mud the pro
duction is not known but 1t is not un-
reasonable to estimate the gas pro-
duction as high as lO0,0OOOOO feet
This is not unreasonable because the
well tested approximately 7O,000.000
when the drill had penetrated the
sand only few feet The drill passed
from the gas sand into shale and
after drilling in shale twenty-five
feet lime shell was entered and the
company expects a sand beneath the
lime shell and deeper drilling will be
done at once. The woners have spent
large sum in drilling this well in or
der to make a test below the gas for
oil Besides the heavy expense Of
drilling through the Eds sand a penal.

THE EDITOR
AND HIS GARDEN,

The editor of the Chronicle has
been enjoying a fine supply OF
vegetables from his garden for the
past week, such as Irish potatoes,
sweet peas, beets, onions, spinach,
mustard, etc. We had our first
mess of new potatoes on Saturday,
April 21. The potatoes, Triumph
variety, we're planted on Jan. 81.
For 38 years we have made it a
rule to plant potatoes on the 3Otb
or 3lst day of January, il the
ground was prepared and the
weather suitable, or on or before
Feb 15 in any event, and we never
failed to make a good crop. Some
tlmts the potato vines are cut
down by the frost, but it never
hurts the potato. 1t is nonsense
to cut off the vines with q hoe, or
pour water on them before sunrise
when frost beaten, as some folks
do. II let alone and properly
planted in good soil they will
come out all right.-Oolfax Chron

SPANISH TRAIL
BOOSTERS HERE

! Mayor ID M. Lowry, of Talla

kiDs, as pilot, and accompanied by
Hon. John Graft, of Mobile, came
into Fairhope Wednesday evening,
on a tour along the Old Spanish
Trail, as far west as Houston,
Texas, in the interest of the next
convention of the Association,
which is to be held at Tallahassee
May 18th and 10Th.
The Convention Boosters took
dinner at the Colonial Inn, and in
the evening there was a meeting
on the lawn IN front of the Home
Telephone Company office, at
which there were talks by Mayor
Lowry, Mr.. Craft, Mr.. Powell and
Mr.. CASTOR. DIR. Showalter pre-.
sided.
Mr.. Lowry urged that FairhOpe
have fair representation at the
convention -FaIrhope (Ala Cour.

From the above account we see
that the boosters made the trip
from FairhOpe (across the bay
from Mobile) to New Iberia from

REVISING THE TARIFF
UPWARD AGAIN.

Our Democratic friends are hav
ing numerous object lessons il
these history making times, anc
one OF them is that they will hav.
to throw some Of their views con.
cerning the Tariff into the pUli
ilcal scrap heap. They have in.
sisted, time without end, that a
Tariff was tax and that it was
unconstitutional. Now that poll.
tical lines have been obllterated
and all are working together for
the good of the Nation, they may
be willing to cODcede that a high
Tariff ls not only good thing, but
that 1t Is mighty handy to have
about the house. It is definite,
easily cOllectible and falls with
comparative lightness upon the
people. A direct tax, on the other
hand, ls often filed with vague
distinctions and exceptions; it is
usually hard to collect, and it falls
heavily upon the individual. 1t
looks as If we were gong to have
both kinds in the next few years,
and 1t will be interesting to note
how the two 81 stems work at one
and the same time.
Word comes from Washington
that an upward revision of the
Tariff to aid in meeting the unu
sual expenses Of the present crisis
will be undertaken by the Ways
and Means Committee of the
House in connection with the reve.
nue. raising programme. 1t is
likely that there will be a levy on
coffee, tea, cocoa, rubber and silk.
1t is estimated that $25. 1000, 900
can be raised on rubber and silk
alone. This programme may be
radically changed during the pro
cess of enacting the legislation,
but it will be the part of wisdom
and of justice if the Republican
minority is given the opportunity
Of taking part 10 the framing of
the legislation. The members of
that party have risen to splendid
heights IN this war business.
They are willing and anxious to
do their duty. and for that reason
il no other they should br con
suited. They should especially be
consulted upon this phase of the
financial programme, so that a

and not all as some have under
stood, We have thus far only
9 s)licited the Annual membership,
ct one dollar, believing it better to
have five hundred mem bers at one
dollar, than one hundred members
at five dollars.
We must again ask the indul
gence Of those members who have
not cotton receipts. The receipts
for Chapters are sent from Wash
iDgtOD, as we understand, through
New Orleans, and this Office hav
ing made requisition for them to
The Office of the Gulf States, we
can only wait until they arrive.
This delay is through no fault Of
the New Iberia office.
Due notice of the next meeting |
will be gwen. Meanwhile let us
all make an earnest effort to get
members, and complete the five
hundred needed. Iberia has cause
20 congratulate herself; interest
has been 80 great that she may
have two chapters in the parish.
