!, 100000 ACRES OF
LAND LEASED FOR OIL

The state land office reports three
and a half millions of acres leased
to parties prospecting for oil in every
portion of the state. In sections
where the applications overlap. eager
contests for the right to drill come
before the commissioner. Revenues
from this source are running to over
$1,000 a day. While the quest for oil
is a gamble it appears to be attrac.
tive, and with so many rigs going up
or in prospect the possibility of pro-
duction increases. 100000 acres in
Union county were set aside for oil
speculations this week.

Big Snow Storm

Ration and vicinity experienced
one of the heaviest falls of snow
last week that it has had this season.
II was a very wet snow and packed
sol:dly. In some respects is will do
a lot of good, while in others it will
work a hardship. especially is this
true to the owners of cattle and
sheep as the stock in many instances
are weak and will be unable to stand
the storm. Many of the stockmen
have been feeding for some time in
order to bring their herds through
until spring in a good condition

 "One of the best in my life" I an- swered with joy in my heart the like of which I have rarely known in these many years that have come to me.
 We rode on in silence with the calls of the swamp robin and the hermit thrush ringing In our ears as the night fell.
 "It's a good time to think, and there we take different roads," said my friend. "You will turn into the future and 1 into the past"
 i've been thinking about your uncle," he said by and by. "He is one of the greatest men have ever known. You knew of that foolish gossip about him-dldn't you?"
 "Yes," answered.
 "Well, now, he's gone about his busi- ness the same as ever and showed by his life that 1t couldn't be true. Not word out of himI But Dave Ramsey fell sick-down on the fiat last winter. By and by his children were crying for bread and the poormaster was going to take charge of them. Well, who should turn up there, just in the nick of time, but Della and Peabody Baynes. They fed those children all winter and kept them iii clothes so that they could go to school. The strange thing about 1t Is this: It WIS Dave Ramsey who really started that story. He got up in church the other night and confessed his crime. His conscience wouldn't let him keep it. He said that he had not seen Peabody Baynes on that road the day the money was lost but had only heard that he was there. He knew now that he couldn't have been there. Gosh t'almighty! as your uncle used to , say when there was nothing else to be said"
 It touched me to the soul-this long delayed vindication of my beloved Uncle Peabody.
 A44N SNHotNA uSt o0pPNA 'ANHA NS 'N1' sent his hired man out for his horse and buggy. When he had put on his overcoat and was about to go he turned to my uncle and said;
 Peabody Baynes, If have had any success, in the world 1t Is because l have had the exalted honor and con sclousness that represented men like you"
 He left us and we sat down by the | glowing candles. Soon told them what Ramsey had done. There was mo- fnent of silence. Uncle Peabody rose and went to the water pail for drink.
 Bart, I believe I'll plant corn on that ten-arce lot next sprlng-darned If l don't" he said as he returned to | his chair.
 None of us ever spoke of the matter again, to my knowledge.

 "Purvis, you drive that load on the floor an put up the hosses," Uncle Peabody shouted in a moment. If you don't like 1t you can hire mother man. I won't do no more till after dinner. This slave business Is played out"

 "You bet it's all right. I'm fer abO- lition an I've stood your domineertn', ligge. driver ways long enough fer one murnin'. IT you don't like 1t you can lool for another man."
