GOOD TIMES COMING
FOR OAKLEY
GREATER PROSPERITY AND
HAPPINESS IN STORE FOR
LOCAL PEOPLE

Unless all signs fail, Oakley is
facing an era of greater prosperity
Several factors will contribute tow
ard this end, - among them being
the March SHOWS, the Viront mine
and the other mines which are to be
developed, the drilling for oil, and
the drilling for artesian water
We think the March SHOWS will
keep the fields green for another
season. Already the farmer is be-
ginning to smile, and his smile is not
so grim as in the years of small
crops. There evidently is something
worth while to look forward to.
But perhaps the smile is partly
due to a vision OF the Oakley Valley
redeemed by water from artesian
wells-Oakley Valley with not an
acre lying waste. This strip Of prai-
rie, almost mile above sea level,
and enclosed and protected by noun
tains mile still higher, will then be
famous throughout our nation. Its
story will be told in the east as an
example of what can be done in the
West by Westerners. Tourists will
come to Oakley to witness new
triumph OF irrigation.
AS to the mines, Vipont already is
All assured success. And we believe
ly we'll. We reported some time ago
that the Grape creek holdings had
been leased by responsible parties
for development. A bright future
seems assured also for such mines as
the Apex and the claims of William
Garvin Tony Skaro OF the Apex
Company was in town yesterday, and
he was very optimistic as to the out
come Of his work.
The Herald is hopeful also as to
the oil industry. 1t was reported
yesterday that drilling would begin
again at the id ranch, IL miles
south OF Oakley, at once. The cas-
ing has been inserted to depth Of
$50 feet. and the water shut out so
that it cannot interfere with the
drill 1t is rumored that another
we'll will be sunk in the near future
by the West Pearl Oil and Gas Co.,
this time on Trapper creek, possi-
bly, on the Walker ranch.
It's time for Oakley people to be-
gin to tell the rest Of the world what
a fine country we live in.
