LEAVE
 ID ESTABLISH CAMP

Several members of the contract ing firm of George Gotto & Co. left for the camp on this morning s train to make preparations for the 'esta ablishment of their camp, which they expect to occupy until the com lpletion of their contract, involving the removal of large quantity of rock in Nenana canyon.
 Camp equipment and a considera- ble quantity of supplies went out
 to the end of steel with the con tractors, and the removal of this
 from Camp creek to their campsite
 in the canyon probably will occupy several days, after which they will
 be ready for business. Tents, rein forced with tarps. will be used for living quarters.
 The firm consists of George Got to. J. H. Russell. Alex Kalisof, Bill Temoff, Sam GerofT, Nick Ram anoff. and Jake Bitsof, and their contract is the fourth one let thus far for the extension of the grade through the canyon. Two more con- tracts will be awarded within the next few days. and others will fol- low as rapidly as the work of cross sectioning will permit.

PENNINGTON IS BACKING FAITH
 IN O|L FIELDS

To reside in Texas for any length of time is to become enthused over the prospect for future oil develop ment, according to George W. Pen nington, former prominent resident Of Nenana, who located in Texas shortly after the last session of the territorial legislature, of which he was a member from this division. Pen has been a resident of several oil centers since locating in the big state, and the whole country looks good to him.
 MT. Pennington, according to a letter received in Nenana on the last mail. is now located at Amarillo, where he is associated with the Dixon Creek Oil company, of which Tex" McIlroy. former well-known Fairbanksan. is president. Pen is auditor of the company and has a large block of stock.
 Amarillo is city of about 25.000 inhabitants, with many beautiful homes. About the city, on all sides, are oil derricks, scattered over the prairie for distance of 40 miles. The drilling Is not proceeding so rapidly there, however, as in some of the producing fields, but every one is sure oil will be found when the wells reach a sufficient depth.
 Tex McIlroy and his brother have a store at Amarillo and appear to be prospering.

Hairy vetch mixed with oats. or
oats and wheat. and planted on lands
that will produce bale or more OF
cotton per acre will yield from two to
four tons of hay per acre. that can
scarcely be eXce!led in feeding value
and should be sown on every farm
both for forage and soil conservation.
Any land that is well drained and
free from acidity will produce vetch
provided the seed are inoculated and
sown through a drill or cover on a
cloudy day to prevent the germs from
being killed by the suns rays
In this county mixture of 25
pounds or vetch seed, one and a half
TO two bushels of oats, and a half
bushel of wheat makes an excellent
crop to be harvested for hay about
the middle of May The land should
then be sown to peas, and either har-
vested or turned under the following
fa'l. and reseeded to vetch or clover
to be turned for cotton or corn the
following spring: preferably for corn
as vetch makes its best growth rather
late TO be turned for cotton.
If hay crop is to be grown. and
Asoil building practiced at the same
Pine, then harvest the vetch crop and
turn the peas, always following the
pea crop with Abruzzi rye which may
be turned early for cotton. or as
above stated reseed to clover or vetch
TO turn for corn.
The coastal counties will produce
