That it doesn't pay to sell cigarcts in

added to the 800 fine "a Jail sentence of

of guilty
County Attorney BrowB alleges there
are other sellers in this city who had
better comply with the law.

AGED VERMONT OWNER
Of CARTER COU NTY
OIL LAND IS DEA D

VI. ID. Smith who, with A. T.. Denny,
owned the land in section 27-4-2 where
the discovery well at Hewitt was
brought in, and who left Ardmore for
Vermont ON the morning the announce
ment was made that the field had
been discovered, returned today from
his summer trip and has not yet seen
his We'll. He is receiving his royalty
check from the Texas Company and
the oil is being taken at the Headton
price of $l.20 a barrel. The discovery
well in royalties has paid about $4,000
and onehalf OF this sum goes to Mr..
Smith and onehalf to a. e. Denny.
Mr.. Smiths check for the last half
Of September was $25l29 which would
make the total royalty for the last
fun month $l0O5.l6.
y. f.. Denny was an aged man who
lived in Northfield, Vermont. lie pur-
chased this land with Mr.. Smith with
out ever having seen it and lived to
receive two royalty checks. and died
at his home this summer at the age of
81 years. Smith and Denny owned
20 acres that had not been leased when
the well came in and this was sold
at $1,000 an acre. When the $4,000
We're given to Mr.. Denny he made the
remark that such a sum would pay all
he owed and leave his estate in good
shape and that he was ready to die He
refused to visit summer camp where
Mr.. Smith was visiting because he said
it was too far from the graveyard, and
not long after he reached the conclu-
sion that he was ready to die he passed
out very suddenly one morning during
the summer. Mr.. Denny was not a
rich man, but left an estate worth
about 100000 besides the royalties
which he owns at Hewitt which will
add to the estate each month for years
to come.

Workers Threatened; Owners Worked

5. Walker, lumber dealer at Elec-
ira, Texas, and who was formerly con-
nected with James a. Lamb here in
the rig building business, is in Ard
more today from his home in Wichita
Falls, Texas. Mr. Walker is carrying
some rather large callous places in
his hands due to rough work on an
oil lease. Mr.. Walker and four part
Eers We're developing a tract of $50
acres in the Electra district when the
lease men organized u union and laid
down certain things that the owners
must do, or they would leave the
lease. When this step was taken by
the workers the owners agreed to do
their own work and each owner went
on the property and carried on the OPP
erations. Mr.. Walker drove u truck
and carried supplies to the lease and
kept the men busy at work. They had
not worked many days until a new set
OF men were placed on the lease and
the operations are being carried on
undisturbed. The example is being fol
lowed by several operating companies
now in the Burkburnett field and the
effect has been wholesome.
Mr. Walker has some good looking
lands in the Hewitt district and it is
probable that he will make disposition
OF these lands while he is here ON this
trip.

hat has been the limit Of its utliza-
ton till now. The Lone Star Gas Com
pany is building "A pipe line at a cost Of
approximately $5,OOO.O00 to carry this
gas to Cleburne. and other towns IN
that section of Texas, and will soon be
hooking onto the wells here. A. II.
McLennan is building a pipe line to SUP
ply Jakehamon with natural gas for
fuel from this field and will also reach
other places in the vicinity. 1t is prob.
able that the Hog Creek field will soon
become the chief source Of supply Of
natural gas for a great many cities in
north Texas.
There was a great waste of natural
gas here before the drillers came to un-
derstand the formations and the struc
tural pecuiarities of this pool. The
waste was at one time equal to the de
mand in all the cities of Texas. 1t has
been reduced under the rules of The
r, ilroad commission, however, until it
is now small.
The Hog Creek field is considered one
Of the most stable and prolific sources
for gas for fuel in the entire natural
gas areas Of the country. 1t will Irob
ably be supplying gas for many years
to large part Of the population Of
north Texas. The utilization of gas for
the manufacture Of gasoline here is
also becoming a factor and the number
of casinghead gasoline plants to be es-
tablished in in the vicinity of Jakehamon
within the coming three months when
the railroad is in operation to this field
is expected to be very large. The de.

The Mckay well is an offset to the In,
