OIL ACROSS AwIlDlaAEss.

Recent discovery of new and
promising oil fields in a remote
section Of Canada has served to
impress the people with thevast-
ness of this country. The trav.
eler along the Canadian Pacific,
! for example, is obsessed with the
feeling that there cannot be much
of a strip of land between him
and the North Pole, and yet, in
fact he is still we'll into the I'm
terror" of the Country. 1t seems
that with discovery Of these oil
fields the Canadian Government
found itself confronted with the
question as to what it could do a.
bout it. Fort Norman is the
nearest point to the locality of
the oil and Fort Norman is 1000
miles from a railroad. OF course
London heard of the oil discov.
cry and of the predicament de-
veloped, and at once set about to
solve the trouble. Utilization of
1.-The war tank for transportation
service was the idea worked out,
ard the guarantee is to move
freight across any ground, such
as prairie, desert, bitches, small
drifts and guIleys, scrub and
treeless jungle, forests of trees

eter three feet from the ground
also swamp, ice and snow. The
tanks are capable of a speed OF
Is miles per hour, and are said
to be cheaper in operation than
agricultural caterpillars.
The fever for oil these--aays
seems akin to that of the fever
for gold in the 40s and new and
strange sights are being staged
for the great wilderness that in.
tervenes between civilization and

ry therefrom:
II have had a number Of inqni.
ries relative to the question OF
celery whether it could be had, or
produced in commercial qunti-
ties, in the valleys of Watauga
county,"
All that has ever prevented the
growing Of celery in Watauga on
a large and very profitable scale,
is the lack of shipping facilities,
as it luxuriates here. In fact, we
have heard it said'that by those
who have experimental with it
here, that Watauga's celery was
an easy rival of the far famed Gel.
cry grown at Kalamazoo, Mich.
Yes, Dr., when your road is com.
.pleted to Watauga, you will find
that the raising of celery will be
one of the big crops in Watauga,
as it would be a better paying
crop than cabbage or, possibly,
than any other one that could be
grown here, when we get facili-
ties for putting it on the market.
