Paycheck of oleasinous Magna,e

II. w. Potter, one of the oleagi
Gus magnates of the Eldorado field,
arrived home last Sunday morning.
He brought with him his paycheck
for the month of August from one
well on his 400 acre farm located
three miles west of Eldorado. The
check called for s3.546.19, this be.
ing the amount due him from the
one-eighth royalty he receives from
all the oil produced on his land.
This is at the rate OF little over
800 per day from one we'll. This
well is producing at the rate OF
1000 barrels per day.
At the present time there are five
producing oil wells on Mr.. Potter's
land. and the output from the five
wells is about 5000 barrels per day.
With oil selling at 50 per barrel
this. would bring in revenue OF
$4,000 per day. OF which amount
Mr.. Potter will receive one-eighth
or $3.50 per day. Some revenue
even for an oleaginous magnate.
Ten more wells are now being put
on the property. which will probab-
ly be producing about the middle of
October. Five OF the wells are be-
ing put down by the Empire Com
pany. and the remaining five by the
Paragon Company. There is plenty
Of room on the land to put down
an even hundred wells. and this
number will probably be In opera
tion in the near future II the oil
field holds out. which II probably
will.
In the first we'll put down. which
is the one that produced the August
paycheck. a flow OF 20.o00.0o0 feet
Of gas was encountered at depth
Of 1880 feet. and q 500 barrel flow
OF oil at a depth Of 174o feet. Both
OF these were cased off and the well
sunk to . depth OF 1850 feet. where
the flow Of 1000 barrels Of oil was
encountered. Another well was sunk
to the 500 barrel flow OF oil. and
slso Ansther well 20 the 20. .ooo. 900
fsst Of eas. and botx e tlese are
now producing revenue.
Mr.. Potter says there In now .

Of about 200. Three months ago
there was not soul within . mile
OF the place. Mr.. Potter left on No.
IL yesterday afternoon and before
we see him again will probably have
. pay check for the month OF Sep
tember In his inside pocket. and II
will probably be for a fabulous
amount.

ella Monster Soldier Special Arrives

Over eight hundred young men
from Arizona and New Mexico we're
guests OF the Harvey House at the
noon hour last Friday and Saturday.
They were on their way to Camp
Funston to get to work learning the
game OF war.
The "Gila Monster Special from
Arizona. with over 800 men on board;
arrived at the noon hour Saturday
and were in town about one hour and
half. They were noisy bunch and
made the Harvey House welkin ring
while they were being served with
the best meal they had yet had on
the journey. They were profuse In
their expressions Of appreciation. es-
pecially to some Of the Red Cross
chickens" who waited upon them.
who are still somewhat mussed up
over the unusual ordeal they exper-
fenced for the first time In their
somewhat brief careers on this mum
dane sphere.
The New Mexico contingent Of
about 50l~Uen passed through La
Junta at the noon hour Friday.
They were not quite as wild and
woolly as the "Gila Monster" bunch.
but quite lively enough to make II
interesting for the ladies who waited
upon them. One soldier boy had in
tow a high-priced. aristocratic look
ing. little red porker. whose front
pedal extremeties were adorned with
a gaudy dog harness. with chain at
tached. He was allowed all the privi-
leges OF his companions in arms. and
gave repeated expressions OF his ap-
probation In the language OF ordin-
ary pigdom.
Manager Hyde served the crowd
with expedition and little or no con-
fusion. Two long tables were placed
In the lobby OF the hotel. and these
with the regular accommodations In
the dining room and at tbs lunch
counter provided seating capacity for
ESQ diners at . single sitting. In
addition TO the regular help. Man
ager Hyde was assisted by a number
OF the members OF the Red Cross AS
sociation. Those assisting on Friday
were Mrs. LaEerquist. Mrs. Andrews.
Mrs. A. c. Draper. Mrs. Winchell.
Mrs. Schuyler. Mrs. Polk. Mrs. Jami-
son. Mrs. Lee and Miss Dorothy Lyn-
gar. and on Saturday by Mrs Ira
