Hoover Calls for Volunteers
Baxter Registrations Must Be
COmplete-Save the FOOD
and Win the War

According to the proclamation
issued by Governor Capper, the
women Of Baxter Springs and the
vicinity will register on Sept. g.
The purpose Of the registration
is to find out definitely what each
woman can do to the greatest ad-
vancement to her country and
herself during the war; and to aid
in food conservation.
The registration is entirely vol:
untary. Each registrant is asked
to give her name, age, occupa-
tion and other details about her
everyday work. The registration
will be carried out on the plans
of an election and instead Of vOt-
ing for some one each woman will
sign two cards, one containing
conservation of food pledge and
the other setting out the particu-
lar service of work the signer is
best qualified to perform. The
latter is termed " registration for
service" but it is not an enlist
ment or of a compulsory nature.
Mrs. J. H. Boswell has been
appointed as lieutenant for Bax-
ter Springs and the Spring Valley
township. She has made all nee
essary preparation for September
9Th. The registration will be held
in the following places
1st ward. Grantham's store.
End ward. Pages pharmacy.
5rd ward. Reddy's drug store.
Spring Valley township. Elm
Tree school house.

The depths of the strikes on this
lease vary, but they all seem to
terminate at the same depth.
Osinstance in the last five holes,
one strike was made at a depth
Of 65 feet and the drill went out
of the ore body at 155. In the
three succeeding holes ore was
encountered at 120 and every one
of them showed a Is foot face.

NEW MILLION
DOLLAR Co.
First National Mining Com.
Pany Uses Hand Jigs
Rather Than Delay
Operation

With the organization of the
First National Mining company
another $1,000,00O concern was
added to the Baxter Springs
mining district recently. This
company has its holdings about
eight miles southwest OF this city
and rather than delay the opera
ton Of its mine when it is hard
to get material for the construc-
tion OF a mill it is using hand
jigs in separating the ore.
One shaft is already down 145
feet. In this shaft drifting was
started at 10 foot level where
the Ore for the hand jigs is Sc
cured. One drift is going east
and another west and both are
said to be in good ore. The
second shaft is located some 200
feet from the first one. This
shaft is at the 209 foot level.
Owing to the large amount of
water the operation in this shaft
is being suspended pending the
installation Of pumps.
H. C. Austin of Oklahoma City
is the president of this company.
The lands under lease by this
company are located north of
the Scott-Eagle property.

Two Shafts ON Six A

The Six A Mining company b
sinking two shafts on ita lease On
the Mary Clabber land six milsB
south of this city. The GhaftB
are 8x8 feet and are down 68
feet. They expect to get into
the ore at from rs to 70 feet.
The owners of this lease never
prospected the land. They went
under the assumption that there
was ore there because of the fact
that an old shaft was in existence
and that there were traces Of
good lead and zinc deposits.
That they will probably not err
in their assumption is backed up
by drill cuttings in the neighb0r-
hood which are brought out by
other prospecters.

The traffic was so large at that

quested the railroad company
some three months ago to place a
watchman there. This request
was not acted upon for some time
and two minor accidents occurred
and a big one was prevented by
J. B. Garrett recently when he
stopped a Ford and its occupants
just in time to let a fast train
pass. The watchman is on his
job from seven o'clock in the

MILLS FOR
RA|NBOW-0TTAWA
This Concern Has Many Hold
ings and is Developing Fast

The Rainbow and Ottawa Lead
and Zinc companies which have
acquired leases on five 40s, are
carrying on Developments faster
than some other firms that have
been in the Baxter Springs min
ing fields longer than they. A
part of the Ed Dardenne land
south of this city and the S. T.
Coe, M. Livingston and L. Ruck-
er lands are leased by these COM
panies. The Jos. W. Hunt land,
three miles south of Baxter, and
the j. S. Mabon farm southwest
of Century are also in their hands.
Three mills have been planned
by this 100000 company. They
are building a 800 ton capacity
mill southwest of this city. The
foundation has been laid and a
part of the machinery has heen
placed. Directly north of this
tract 200 ton capacity mill is
being planned where the land was
thoroughly drilled out. Rich
strikes have been mrde by this
company on their holdings. The
Rainbow and Ottawa Lead and
Zinc companies are owned by the
same people. F. E. Herring of
Elk City is the president of the
two companies. o. D. Halsell
and R. H. brennan of Oklahoma
City are the other owners. r.

Rich Strike Getting Richer

Hartley land west of Baxter

a depth of 210 feet and at 23S
feet the drill was still in the ore
body and the cuttings appeared
to assay more than reported last
week. There are three holes
drilled on this property and
every one of them are in good
shines. This one, which is the
fourth one, however, yielded
rich ore.

first lease on this land il held by
Tulsa people, but they have sub

ing has been going on for some
time on this 200 acres. The
present lessees are sinking four
shafts and the plan is to build q

BAXTER CHOSEN FOR
OIL REFINERY SITE
Local Capitalists Building Plant
That Win Employ Many
Men and Supply Needs
of Local Field =

An oil refinery for Baxter
Springs is being financed by the
Goodeagles, Quapaws, A. V.
Smith and other men of this city.
The location for the refinery
has already been purchased, the
Office room built and now the
railroad company is laying the
sidings.
The beginning OF the refinery
will be small, but they hope to
turn out 200 barrels a day event
ually. The crude oil will be
purchased from Kansas and
Oklahoma oil fields and will be
shipped in here to be refined into
its component parts gasoline,
kerosene, kerosene distilate and
the residue which will be used
for fuel. The plan is to turn out
only high grade material.
The refinery will be located on
the state line between the Frisco
and the M. o. & G. tracks. The
company bought 10 acres in fee
from Conrad Kratz and leased
six or seven acres from W. W.
Scott on the Oklahoma side. All
steel for the building has been
bought and isnow in transit.
The output of the plant is ex-
pected to be consumed here in
the mining district.
The construction of the plant
will be in charge of A. V. Smith,
Jr., and L. Hartman, formerly OF
Gushing, Okla, will be superin-
tendent. Mr.. Hartman was con-
nected with the Kansas City
Refining company which is said
to be controlled by the Webster
interests. Both A. V. Smith and
Mr.. Hartman have had much
experience in the business.
The location of the plant offers
q splendid market for the output
of the refinery. The saincc need
fuel of all kinds. The plant is
expected to be in full operation
in go days. The policy Of the
company as to the retail business
has not yet been determined, but
from the start it is said that
everything will be sold on whole
sale basis. The company in no
way is connected with any other
oil producing company. The
company aspires eventually to 60
into the producing business as
well.
The work of the company will
be handled by experienced and
competent men. They will en-
ploy from 80 to 40 men from the
start. The superintendent will
live at the plant. The company
will have it's offices in the city.
