Striking Toys Seen at Kinks
Brilliant COlOrs for Evening FrOCks
for the Miss

Part of the fun of skating is in the
costume. With the Kinks now open
and the temperature falling, many
smart skating toys are seen in the
shops. Women are realizing that
they would enjoy the sport more if
they had the suitable costume. One
cannot skate with a tight skirt with
out some danger. And besides, COM
fort is most essential for this rather
strenuous sport So the introduction
of the circular skirt has been accepted
and is so well liked that costume for
skating is not automatically SO unless
the circular skirt appears.

The one-sided drapery is far more
advisable, and the illustration shows
graceful model, featuring the draped
skirt. The waist of this dress is very
simple and the neck is pleasing IN
line. The novelty cuffs and tight high
collar on the other dress are braided
with soutache, and the side sections
correspond. The skirt is laid in
pressed pleats, which preserve the
straight silhouette.

Odd Necklines

The neckline is perhaps one of the
most important lines of a garment.
How frequently we see thin neck
with the rather low round neck line
the shape chosen to set it off. This
is an objectionable mistake, for every
woman should study her own partic-
ular lines and set them off as prettily
as possible. But sometimes we are
afraid that by catering to our own
personalities we will not be in style.
This fear should be promptly dis

Forecast of Spring Millinery

Many new models for wear at Palm
Beach and other winter resorts fore
cast the spring styles. A chic little
model fashioned after the lines of the
Victorian period is entirely covered
with bright flowers. These flowers
are made of raffia and are separate
from the hat. Odd, bright-colored
vegetables and fruit will be used ex-
tensively as trimming for both tail
ored and dressy hats.

SELF-FEEDER FOR HOGS PAYS

The jefferson County Qnd) farm
bureau, thru the county agent, has
Just completed a profitable self-feeder
demonstration for hogs. Ten pigs
from one litter were fed skinned
milk and allowed to eat at will from
a self-feeder containing bran, ship
stuff and hominy meal. The pigs
were narrowed March I and sold on

October %. They made an average
daily gain, from date of birth, of 0.93
pound. The total cost of feed was
5000. The weight of the hogs at sell
ling time was 2,160 pounds, or an av-
erage of 216 pounds each. The farm
err received $3.50 a hundred, $4,000
for the lot, making net profit of
$4,000 or $19.96 per head.

missed, for when we are dressed be-
comingly we are always in style.
Designers have been most consid-
crate and, realizing the need of var
ious styles of necklines, have given us
a gratifying selection to choose from.
The Vandyke neckline is ultra smart
and may be worn by almost everyone
The lines are not so very severe, and
are well adapted to the one-piece
frocks. The square neckline, with the
circular corners, is more severe in
line, and only those with a decidedly
youthful neck may indulge in this
novelty.

One Pocket

One of the novel features in the
separate skirt line is the skirt with
only one pocket. This singular pocket
effect was obtained by folding over
the material across the hip and slight
ly slanting it up toward the back.
Tho attractive, it is like all novel fea-
lures and NAV not last.

TWO ACTIVE NEW FIELDS

Before the end of the week there
will probably be two or three wells in
the Hewitt district on the sand. One
of these wells should be Texas Com
pany's No. 1, Laura NOlen, i'm section
2S-4-2. This well is due west of the
producing area and is well located for
a good sand. Then well No. 2, on the
Denny farm, owned by NJ. ID. Smith
is very likely to reach the pay before
the end of the week. This is being
drilled also by the Texas Company.
Another very interesting well at Hew-
lit is Carter Oil Company No. /, Noble
farm. in section 21.i-2.
This well has been drilled with rO-
tary to a depth of l,62O feet and stand
ard tools are being moved from the
same company's abandoned well at
Randlett, Okla. This well has looked
favorable all the way down and there
is every reason to believe that il is in
producing territory and the chances
are very good that the sand will be
found little earlier than i'm the dis
cOvery well.
Whether the field gees east or
west, north or south, means
much TO individual Investors but
to the town and country as u
whole the result is the Sale. Two
producing sands have already been
found at Hewitt, these sands are not
freaks because they have held their
production well and Carter county has
another important oil area TO develop.
The situation at Graham is also very
encouraging. The discovery well there
will make from 200 to 25O barrels, the
oil is of high grade, a pipe line will
be built from Graham TO Oil City and
the Graham crude will be brought into
ArdmOre through the pipe line of the
Coline Oil Company and will be used
by the local refineries.

shacks and boarding houses in like

be opened with tent for a bank build
ing but the steel safe will be real.
Arrangements are being made by
Hamon kell to secure impartial
treatment and recognition of priority
claims among men who seek the
same sites. Save as to corner locations
in the business district it seems likely
that everybody will be able to get ap.
proNimately the sort of location he
wants. a line of investors promises
to form very early Monday morning in
front Of the townsite office and it
seems probable that the first day in
Jakehamon will be busy day for the
town. 1t is the oil field interest that
makes for the rush to get locations as
this is the only town that will have Il
railroad in the Hog Creek field.

Want Samples of Hewitt Oil

The North American Oil and Refin-
ing Company at Pemeta, Okla, has sent
to Ardmore to obtain samples Of the oil
in section 25-4s-3w, in the southeast ex-
tension of the Healdton field, and asks
also for samples Of the oil found in
the Hewitt wells. Samples of oil and
samples of sand will be sent to this com
pany and the object of this research
work is, undoubtedly, for the purpose
Of determining, if possible, whether any
connection exists between the southeast
extension and the Hewitt field. The
opinion is growing that the Healdton
and the Hewitt fields will connect, with
possibly a narrow strip of dry terri
tory separating them.

tifully supplied with fresh fish.

state are quietly making purchases
surrounding the producing area. The
same complaint is heard at Hewitt that
was heard in the early days of Heald-
ton-that prices are too high. But oil
companies that entered Headton made
big profits on their investments and
it is reasonable to presume that the
same rule will prove true in the Hewitt
field. Prolific sands with the thick
ness that the Carter county oil sands
have, make bad buying almost an inn
possibility. a producing company can
scarcely pay too much for property
where the acreage lies in the produc-
ing area. And whether acreage is too
high or not, buying is steadily on and
prices in the most hopeful parts of the
field are gradually getting higher.

Ardmore Men Own Texas Company

Texas Central Oil Company, which
has a nice producing well in the Desde-
mona district in Texas, is starting a
we'll near the town Of Sagerton in the
southwest part of Haskell county. AS
soon as casing arrives, the we'll will
be ready to start drilling operations.
While no production has been found
adjacent to this location, the situation
looks good enough to attract a large
number of companies, and alwost a
score of wells are drilling now in that
locality. None of them, however, have
drilled deeper than 625 feet. The Texas
Central Company is owned by B. l..
Slack and o. C. Lasher and others of
this city.

Sand Was Disappointing

Carter Oil Company, No. 2, Tucker,
in section 30, 2s-3w, reached the top
of sand at 2,577 feet, but the sand
was disappointing for the reason that
it had a thickness of only feet and a
water bearing sand. The drill went
out of this sand into a hard shale and
the depth oft he hole is $3.50. The
company will drill at least to the g.
OOO-foot level and will probably go
depth of 1887 feet.
