REASONING co. PLANS BIG YEAR
Will Make Great Investments at Fort
Steele and Will Supply Many
Towns With Gas.

Plans for an oil drilling AMI develop
,ment campaign FOR the coming summer
on a large scale were announced Tues
day by the Reasoning Oil company.
with headquarters in Cheyenne, says
the State Tribune.
Outstanding among the plans con-
templated is the construction of a 10
inch pipe line from Il forty-million-foot
gas well owned by this company in the
Lost Soldier district. southwark to
Rawlins, and thence eastward to sup
ply all towns along the Union Pacific,
including Cheyenne and Fort Russell
with natural gas. This pipe line. if
constructed, will be 100 miles in length,
and will cost several million dollars.
In addition to this piece of con-
struction, the company plans the i'm
mediate erection of a larger pipe line
from the Lost Soldier oil field to the
town of Fort Steele. There is now a
four-inch pipe line, built by the Illinois
Pipe Linz company, to Fort Steele from
b 26 producing wells owned by the
Ball Oil company, at Lost Soldier. 1t is
proposed to make this a ten-inch line.
Additional to the new pipe line, the
Reasoning has ordered ten new tanks,
each with capacity of 1880 barrels,
which Will be erected at Fort Steele
Immediately upon their delivery to
that place. This will give the Kasom-
ing n of the largest tank farms in
Wyoming.
When the tanks are finished, a re-
fnery is contemplated. also to be
located at Fort Steele. The Kasoming
owns $40 acres of land ut this place.
located between the Union Pacific
railroad and the Platte river, IL on
this land the new tanks and the refin-
cry will be constructed.
Reasoning officials declined to state
whether h company would build the
pipe line from he Lost Soldier field
north of Rawlins into Fort Steele. Or
whether someone else was going to
build it. but gave out the information
as a cold, hard fact that the ten-inch
pipe line would be built.
AT the Lost Soldier field. which is
the intake end of the line. there are
now two tanks with n capacity of 3D.
OO barrels each, and IA third tank with
a capacity of 1880 barrels. All of
these tanks are full of oil ut the pres
ent time.
Equipment has been ordered fo- the
drilling of 15 more wells. and an order
for 33 cars of casing has been placed,
This casing orGer will make a solid
trainload of the products and IL 'imons
the largest single orders for casing that
has ever been placed by a Wyoming

The tragic death Of J. Harry Scurr,

crossing OF the N. & st. Y. and the
Lincoln highway, at Rock Valley

and grieved business friends and ac-
Quaintances here. Mo- explanation
can over be made Of why Scurr did

he, while driving alone, was occupied
with other thoughts, and did not hear

At the Casino.

Mabel Normand, the dainty and
vivacious star, who always will be
remembered as Micky, is at the
Casino. in George AIDES play, The
Slim Princess" and is as ppetty and
fresh as ever. Miss Normand
depends upon her facial ex-
pressions to a great extent and con-
sequently she gets great many
close-ups.
The picture is cute. To say 1t was
intellectual would be telling lie,
and to say it was funny, without
thinking of the trials Of the little
girl who wanted to get stout, woull
be overlooking the best part of the
picture. SO cute is the only word to
use. The story rambles land on,
like the unraveling Of an Arabian
Nights tale, and Mabel as the prin-
cess, finds herself unable to marry
because she Is so slim. Her father
solves the problem, and everything
progresses nicely until Mabel sits on
a pin. and then,-well she marries
just the same.
The costumes and settings are
pretty and the direction is good. 1t
Is q picture you viii laugh over and
thoroughly enjoy.
