every car standing or moving throws

CITY TRUSTEES DECIDE TO
PARK AT SWIMMING POOL

The good father Of Deming will soon
initiate the work Of parking the land
held by the city ON which the commu-
nifty swimming pool is located at the
corner Of Pine and Eighth streets
Clarence Morgan, city engineer, has
been called on to make n survey Of the

tensive parking, grass, trees, shrubbery

FLORIDA WELL THROUGH
SATURATED OIL SAND

The Florida oil well west OF the city
has been steadily drilling for the past
week with the exception of short de-
lay due to the losing Of the slush buck
ct. The casing is now past 1900 feet
and the stratum Of oil bearing sand es-
timated to be twelve feet In thickness
Is cased off The formation Is consid-
cred % be very favorable as the drill
is again In limestone thought to be an.
other cap over an oil-beariRg stratum.
AS these strata has strengthened In the
amount of oil and thickness since the
first one was encountered, II Is thought
that the next one will certainly pro-
duce larger amount OF oil than the
last. II is still maintained that the oil
sands just cased off contained enough
oil to make the well a paying one.
r The well OF the Angelus Co, east Of
the city has had little more hard luck
In having clay run into the hole. This
has been cased, however. and the work
Is progressing.
