We have no Prohibition commits
sioner in this state, but we have a
regular department OF the state gov
eminent at the head OF which is an
official known as the food and drug
commissioner. He was given charge
OF the enforcement OF our Prohibition
law.
The result has been that the law
has been rigidly enforced in every
county OF the state. In the first place,
our food and drug commissioner is
thoroughly in sympathy with the law
and, as he is state officer, has had
all of the resources OF the state back
OF him.

In reply to your inquiry as to the
practical working of our prohibitory
statute with respect to the law en-
foroement department. will say that in
my Judgment the services of an eff
Gent state officer are of great benefit
and material advantage in the proper
enforcement Of the law. The offenses
against the liquor laws are somewhat
in class by themselves.
1t is obvious that the attorney gen.
erals department cannot give the nee
essary attention and have time for
anything else. The local officers in
too many instances are subject to To-
cal influences, and are many times UNI
able to cope with the situation in their
own jurisdiction because of the fact
that they are known TO the offenders,
with the result that the moment they
become active. the offenders get in
formation in regard to such activities
and cover up
The methods of our state enforce
ment officer have been very satisfac-
tory. His Office is available for the
lodging of complaints. and also is the
source OF information for local off
GERS. The Capitalization of com
plants oftentimes discloses similarity
of offenses which at once leads TO the
conclusion that the same offender or
the same system is operating in sew
cral localities. most certainly re-
gard this feature of the law as almost
essential TO its proper and satisfactory
enforcement.

TEXAS SCRUDE n
 OPEN NEW FIELD

FIT. WORTH, Texas, July 26.-The Texas Crude Oil company has an nounced that it will immediately open up the Lamar county, Texas, oil fields, and machinery for the first work, close to Paris, will be on the ground within two weeks.
 Preparatory to the opening of this territory. Texas Crude took over the East Paris Oil company. with 25OO acres in forty tracts in Lamar coun- ty, much of it close to the city of Paris.
 Considerable activity has develop ed in this field and numerous wells will be drilled in the near future.
 The East Paris Oil company was organized at Paris with B. B. Stur- geon, J. P Morris and E. F. Morris as its officers and principal packers. The company erected a derrick on one of it's tracts, located 21s miles from Paris and was about to spud in the well when it was decided to turn over the properties to the Texas Crude.
 The men behind the East Paris Oil company believe that the great resources of the Texas Crude Oil company will enable a more complete and satisfactory exploitation of the Lamar county territory than possi- bly could be brought about through the activities of a small local organ. iZation.
 B. B. Sturgeon, J. P Morris and E. F. Morris are among the best known and most substantial citizens of La mar county and through the taking over of the East Paris Oil company by the Texas Crude Oil company, these men become stockholders in the latter company.
 Texas Crude plans a full and com plete development of the new field and the first we'll will be drilled close to the site of the Greenhall we'll which caved in after the drill had passed throug twenty feet of oil sand and very high quality of oil had been discovered. This oil, ac- cording to an analysis by experts, was of higher grade than anything produced in Texas.

WILL DEVELOP
 HAST|NGSF|ELD

HASTINGS, Okla, July 26.-With the intention of developing the entire section between Healdton and Burk- burnett, the Texas company has SC. lected the most likely anticlines in the region contiguous to Hastings and have placed leases on a large section of the land, beginning at Hastings as a central point between the two fields.
 The Healdton oil tests from 30 to 3S, while the oil found in other. parts tests as high as AZ degrees Baume. Most of the oil found in this section is at or near the contact between the Permian and Pennsylvania forma- tion; however, on some of the more pronounced or steeply dipping struc- lures some very good pay sands are well up in the Permian structure.
 J. H. Parker brought in a good we'll on the Fink farm in section 32-2s- low and Fitzsimmons Drilling compa- ny brought in good well on the Freeman farm on the northeast of section 5-2-10 last week. These wells are situated northwest of Hastings.

Columbia Record
 Is the Best Ever
 Made This Month

Columbia claims to have reached it's high-water mark this month in theper- lection of a record. The particular record in question is Massenet's 'Elegie,' sung by Riccardo Stracciari with violin obligato by Sascha Jacob sen. It is certainly a song by a fa- nous composer sung by famous bar itone with a famous accompanist Those who have listened to many rec ords are inclined to agree with Co., lumbia's claim.
 A collection of the latest and best dance records has been gathered by Columbia for especial circulation this month. It includes forty fox trots, thirty-one one steps, and six waltzes; and aims to supply enough dance mu- sic to keep the most indefatigable of dancers busy through the longest sum- mer night.
 The organizations which play this music include the Columbia Saxophone Sextette, Earl Fuller's Rector Novelty Orchestra, the Waldorf-Astoria Dance Orchestra, the Yerkes JaZarimba Or chetsa, Princes Band, lockers Broth CTS, Wilber Sweatman's Jazz Band, the Columbia Orchestra, the Columbia Band (assisted by 'Madelon" by the Peerless Quartette), the American Marimbaphone Band, the Jazarimba Orchestra, Princes Orchestra.

RANGER ID BE
 BIG GAS FIELD

RANGER, Tex, July 26.-Operators in the Ranger field are considering the possibilities of making the Ranger field the paramount gas field of the southwest The territory south of Ranger is said to be richly underlaid with an unlimited volume of gas. Op- orators are planning to sink number of gas wells there, utilizing the gas of the vicinity for drilling the well un- til it blows itself in as an oiler. The operators in this connection plan to pattern after the Desdemona pool, in whose early days a number of big gassers were brought in, which finally wore down into good oilers.
 Four miles south of Ranger, the L.. A. Hightower we'll of the Texas com pany is still making a strong pres sure of gas. This well has been turn ed over to the natural gas department for use as a fuel producer. The last of the week, in spite of the heavy gas pressure the operators gave the we'll a 20 quart shot of nitroglycerine at a depth of 3060 feet The well then made a showing of oil and the gas production rose to 100000 feet. The hole is now 35S2 feet deep.
 The Prairie Oil and Gas company's fourth test of the E. Roper tract is completed with the sand first encoun- tered at 3475 feet. No estimate has yet been set of the production, but it of the No. 8, which came in a short time ago. making 700 barrels.
 The Sinclair-Gulf Oil company's test
 
 be heavy producer when brought in. The boiler has been moved back and everything is prepared for it's com pletion. This we'll is to be shot within the week. It is now standing full of oil at 3492 feet. Should this we'll follow the example of other wells in this vicinity, showing the same con- ditions before competoin, it will no doubt be one of the big producers of the month.
 In the Caddo and Breckenridge dis trict, the inability of operators to get materials transported from the raii- way stations of the Texas and Pacific railroad to their locations is becoming very serious. A number of wells have been delayed because of the shortage of tankage. A number of good pro ducers are expected in soon.
 Work is going forward rapidly on the several pipe lines being construct ed to various oil fields out of Ranger. The company which recently took over the Texas and Gulf Oil and Re Timing company is planning a pipe line from Ranger to Abilene. A number of pipe lines are being hurried to the relief of Desdemona producers, where 1t has been necessary in many in- stances temporarily to halt operations.
