ONE HUNDRED BARREL
WE'LL AT RANGELY

Grand Junction, Feb. 12.-R. G. Horn
of Grand Junction is in receipt of
word to the effect that during the past
week the Emerald Oil company of Yer
nal, Utah, brought in new oil well at
depth of 700 feet which is producing
about 1sc barrels daily by being
pumped. The well is located about 80
miles west Of Rangley. Mr.. Horn is
interested-in fact, one of the largest
owners-in the White River Oil prop
erty and the Piceance Oil L Gas COM
pany, which he is pushing and the loca-
tion is near the new producer. he ex-
poets that reports will come soon from
his properties that oil has been en-
eountered. Joe Trachta and Vernon
Of Palisade are in charge Of his drill
ing. These men drilled the deepest
well in the DeBeque district several
years ago. -., -...

Candle Making an Art.

The making of candles is not ordi-
narily considered a fine art, but the
Italians have made 1t such. The dis
tinctively italian votive taper is made
by hand. The materials are pure bees
wax, which is kneaded and tempered,
and mixed with a secret ingredient to
retard combustion, and which has spe-
cial Egyptian cotton for wicks. The
cotton, too, is treated with chemicals
to keep it from feeding too fast. Small
candles are nodded Large ones are
made by rolling up sheets Of wax.

ment report. 1t also penetrated the oil
zone at about 600 feet, but they did
not find gusher and went on further
with the result that the hole was dry
all the way down.
Tho discovery of oil there proves that
the oil zone extends down this way
from the Wyoming oil field, as Range
ly is located midway between Wyoming
and Grand Junction.

FOR PERMANENT
GOOD ROADS

To the Editor Glenwood Post:
Dear Sir:-As resident rancher Of
the county for 25 years and being cou-
scious that more favored stretch of
country is hard to find, 1 wish To
make some suggestions for the better
ment of existing conditions. The many
streams and rivers which traverse the
country make the construction and
maintenance of roads an expensive
problem, due to the necessity of numer-
Gus and costly bridges.
1t is my opinion that the question of
meeting the cost of road construction
has never been given proper considera-
tion. There are many tracts of pro-
ductive land lying along the streams
that only wait for good roadways to be
used by new settlers for building farm
homes and thereby adding very ma
terially to the substantial assets of our
county. A chroni, lack Of funds is
given as the cause of these roads not
being built. There are at the present
time over 1000 miles of road in the
county and about Is large bridges
which cost over $4,000 each, and
nearly so costing $1,000 or over.
To maintain all this our commis-
sioners have had about $65,00O an
man wonder how they have managed
to keep the huge system of roads and
bridges in shape for travel.
1t strikes me as shame and rank
injustice to demand or expect our COM
missioners to attempt to accomplish
such task with such a meager sum
Of money as they have had in the past.
The assessors schedules show the
taxable property in our county to be
eighteen million dollars, and the actual
value is probably nearly, if not quite,
double this sum.
I would suggest that bonds for one
million dollars be issued for the i'm
provement of existing roads and
bridges and the building Of new roads
where they are very much needed. This
sum would be none too much for this
purpose, and while we have board of
commissioners like the present board,
composed of men of good judgment and
mature years, men of sterling integrity,
progressive and energetic; while we
have such men in office we should pro-
vide them with the means to carry on
this work in a proper manner without
requiring them to be in constant
state of worry over finances. Such q
bond issue as suggest could probably
be made at or per cent and made
for 80 or 35 years; could be arranged
on the amortization plan of adding
per cent for a sinking fund like the
federal farm loan which would prove
less of burden on the present gen.
Grafton than paying the present taxes
for road purposes or, to put, in actual
figures, to pay annual interest and
principal on this bond issue of our
million dollars would require 100000
to 10000 a year while the present
taxes are well over 100000.
In addition to this it would distrih-
ute the cost and burden ON succeeding
generations who would derive more
benefit from these improvements than
the present generation. I offer this as
q suggestion and shall feel much graf
ified If am in any way instrumental
in starting discussion among our cit
izens Of this very. important subject.
Respectfully yours,
g. G. HARRIS.
