OUTFIT HERE TO DRILL FOR
OIL NEAR SAND SPRINGS
Machinery Has Capacity of 1000
Feet and Will BE In Operation
the Coming Week

Local interest in the development
of the oil possibilities Of this section
received an impetus again this week
when an oil drilling outfit, under
contract with the Nevada Salt Basin
Dome Oil Co.. was unloaded at the
depot.
The outfit is in charge of T. w.
Clark, an experienced welldriller and
has a capacity of 1000 feet. The
machinery will be set up this week
at point about three miles south
east of Sand Springs, just north of
the Lincoln Highway, where the
company has elected to make its
initial try at drilling for a deposit of
oil. While awaiting the arrival of
the drilling machinery the company
erected a couple of buildings for the
accommodation of the crew and as
soon as the machinery is on the
ground operations will begin.
The proposal to drill for oil in this
territory originated with w. NJ Nc
Caffrey, of Reno, who has had wide
experience in this line in Wyoming
He was attracted by the similarity of
the geological conditions in the Sand
Springs district to that which OBJ
tains in the oil fields of Wyoming
Not content with his own judgment
Of the possibilities, Mr.. McCaffrey
secured the advice of one of the
most successful operators in that
State, who made survey of the dis
trict and gave 1t as his opinion that
there were present all of the surface
indications that usually accompany
oil deposits in other districts.
Naturally, with this opinion there
goes no guarantee that oil exists in
this valley, but the promoters of the
enterprise realized that the only way
TO settle the question was by explor-
ing the territory at depth, and the
arrival of the machinery and the be-
ginning of operations is the best ev-
idenee of the good faith of the COM
pany.
The prosperity that would follow
the discovery of oil in commercial
quantities in this county are almost
beyond computation and the favor
able reception that has been accord
ed the movement to demonstrate the
possibilities by actual work augurs
we'll for a successful outcome.
The board of directors is made up
almost entirely of local men which
is a guarantee that the money sub
seribed in the stock of the enterprise
will at least be used to bore the hole,
let the results be what they may

STATEWIDE CONFERENCE
OF COUNCIL OF DEFENSE
Many Important Questions Touching
Neyada's War Work VIII be Dis
cussed In Series Of Meetings

According to announcements sent
out from the offices of the State
Council of Defense in Reno, every
county in the State will be we'll rep
resented al the statewide war con-
ference which will open there for
two days session tomorrow.
At the outset 1t was thought that
q few representatives from each
county would be present to enter
the discussions, but as the affair has
been developed 1t appears that from
coo to 500 people will attend and
that every organization and industry
In the State will have its best men
present to take part in the many
interesting discussions that will come
up.
The program provides for section
al meetings of eleven different sec
tions as well as for two big open
meetings at which addresses will be
given by prominent speakers sent
out from the National Council of
Defense.
One very important matter that
will be taken up and one that will
interest every raneher and cattleman
in Nevada is the fixing of standard
wage scale for laborers on Nevada
farms. At meeting in Exc a few
days ago the first attempt to estab
lish such a wage scale was made by
the ranchers organization and this
organization is coming to Reno pre-
pared to submit scale of SO day
for men working In the hay fields
and 1915 day for stackers, to the
conference for statewide adoption.
This delegation will aleo recommend
the establishment of a nine and
half hour day for farm laborers.
There are hundreds of important
questions to be considered; ques-
tions that vitality effect Nevada's
work in the war and the delegates
from each county are being asked to
come prepared to discuss anything
that is of interest to their section of
the country.

TO MAKE CHANGE IN
SOUTHERAN PACIFIC TRAINS

According to unofficial reports,
based upon excellent authority, all
observation cars and at least two i'm
portant trains will be removed from
the Southern Pacific train service.

reductions in service are to be made
to meet demands of the government
that passenger service shall be cut
to the minimum point that will care
for public travel and will be insti-
tuted within a short time.
According to reports in circula-

BUSINESS MEN CONSIDER
ESTABLISHING A CANNERY
To Be Community Enterprise; Farm
ers and Stockholders to Share
In Its Advantages

Last Friday evening a number of
business men met in the Bank of
Fallon building with C. A. Norcross,
Director of Extension Work for the
State of Nevada, the object of the
meeting being to consider plans for
the establishment of a small canning
and drying plant.
The features of this undertaking
were presented to the gathering by
Director Norcross and a discussion
of them brought out many encour-
aging plans.
The expense of a plant suitable
for the purpose of this valley was
stated to be $4,000, and it was sug-
gested that the old creamery was
admirably adapted for it and it was
thought that this could be secured,
its central location meeting the re-
quirement of accessibility
In such building stockholders or
subscribers would have the privi-
lege of camping their own fruits or
vegetables, those In this class paying
the actual cost connected with 1t.
The intention is to make of the
undertaking a purely community af-
fair at present. the main purpose
being the conservation of food, the
waste each season as is well known
being enormous.
1t is believed that with such a
plant with its many conveniences
householders will view it as one of
economy In money, time and energy
The plant II established will not
exclude any one desiring to make use
OF its equipment as charge will be
fixed sufiicient only to meet overhead
expense.
For the fuller development of this
enterprise it was agreed that Miss
Edna Black, County Leader of Boys
and Girls Clubs, visit the several
districts and ascertain the views of
those to whom she will present the
matter, and at future meeting the
proposition will be definitely acted
upon.

Being Brief Tale of an Episode
that Actually Occurred
In Fallon

For one brief but heeting hour
last Thursday morning through a
worthy inspiration of safety first"
employee of The l. II. Kent Co., our
city assumed metropolitan airs.
1t was an unforgettable period. as
standing in the center of the inter
secting Maine and Center Streets,
was what admirably served as a
traffic diverter and warning to the
large army of motor speed maniacs
with which this city is cursed
In the minutes succeeding this
hour the city was restored to its
normal, rude hands prompted by un-
appreciative minds, having removed
the life saver.
Some day, following a loss OF life,
which is as inevitable as that food
will win the war" the city fathers
will appropriate the all-sufiicient
sum of $1,000, for a post with guide
signs to be placed at this dangerous
crossing.
In a period of three weeks there
have been four motor collisions at
this point, the resultant damage for
tunately being only to the cars, and
only last Sunday a pair of newly
weds narrowly escaped having their
honeymoon continued In the Great
Beyond ~ <~-r7s
Incidentally and as proof of the
willingness of many motorists to OBJ
serve traffic regulations, during the
above memorable hour a number of
motorists responded to the purpose
of the sign by making the turns as
squarely as though a medal was the
reward Of their performance.
