/ OIL LOCATIONS !
Oil Boom Hits Wickenburg
and Activity Follows.

Interest spreads to general
belief that a great era of prosper
ity around Wickenburg is fast
getting under way. All signs
indicate that oil is the principal
factor for highly prosperous con-
ditions in this section in 1920.
This is the concensus of opinion
by experts and geologists who
have studied the situation. The
vision of the editor of this publ.
cation in 1918 when on a field
investigation of the district, is
reaching towards fulfillment.
A remarkable increase in the
stakings and new outfits in the
field was noticeable this week.
One company of Phoenix capital
ization has let contract for two
drilling outfits to be in operation
before Sept. 1st. Other comp
anies are planning similar efforts.
The field is made up almost
entirely of unpatented lands and
has advantages for the poor man
as well as the rich promoter, for
acquiring land and leasing or SUBJ
letting to others who have capitol
for development. Quite num-
Der of leases have been acquired
in what is considered valuable
acreage. In fact, its any
mans chance now" said Doc
Bowsher, who is considered as
one of the most active of the
home organizations.
The total result of impressions
gathered by a trip around the
surrounding areas where loca-
tions are being made, IS that
important new oil finds will be
discovered near here during the
next II months and the big men
of town are all boosting for en-
larged activities.

Wickenburg Oil Belt Extensive

The Wickenburg oil belt is the
happy hunting ground of the
oil prospector of small means.
The stratigraphic formation so
far as topography is concerned
is most favorable to occurance
of oil. The oil area is considered
regular and the belt or zone is be-
lievd to extend along the peculiar
arches and domes characteristic
of the almost level country be-
tween Wickenburg and the Col
orado river.

Malnutrition of Babes Increase
by Creamery Methods.

The plan of the creameries to
substitute SKINNED milk for
whole, undiluted milk that has
not been robbed of it's butter fat
quality, is manifested in nearly
every state where the dairy COM
missioners allow the sale of two
or three different grades of milk.
A campaign of advertising is on
by the subsidized press to "edu-
cate" people into using more
SKINNED milk, so that the real
nutritive values may be exploited
for higher prices. The great
infant mortality during the "fiu"
epidemic is attributable to this
cause and many frantic mothers
who tried to economic by using
skinned milk now know the
cause of their infants death
malnutrition and undernourish-
ment.

send out over it's wires the story
of Senator Mark Smiths speech

the Arizona statesman spoke in
favor of the League of Nations
in the strongest denunication of
the leagues opponents yet heard
on the floor of the senate and Sc
verely denounced the reactionar-

strange that the Associated Press

acter especially when it has been

Build Up, Don't Pull Down

in which is your home, you are pull

up you are building up yourself

ish from your mind the mistaken
idea that all good things are away
off in some other locality. Give
your town all the praise it can leg

you no harm and will cost you
nothing; and above all, patronize

Plain Truth

Why do people consider they are
comforting a-great favor on news
paper when they patronize it in any
way, shape or form?
No other factor has as much in
fluence on the destiny Of a commu-

business receives less unsolicited
support than the newspaper Office.
No community should expect a
first-class newspaper unless each
resident does his share toward sup
porting the paper.

is the system of education molding
