The first refinery Of crude petro-
leum TO be built in Ardmore was the
"Ardmore Refinery Company" located
just at the northern limits Of the
city and fronting on the main line
uf the Santa Fe railroad. 1t was
built largely with LEGAL capital. and
was operated under The above nar1a
for several years. subsequently it
passed into the hands of eastern capt.
talists and Is now owned by the
Pure Oil Company, of Columbus
Ohio, and is operated under the name
"Ardmore Refining Subsidiary Of the
Pure Oil Company" 1t is one OF
seven refineries owned and operated
by the Pure Oil Co., and is by far
the largest refining plant in this
portion OF Oklahoma. Prior to last
July the corporate name OF the con-
carn was the "Ohfo Cities Gas Co."
The president Of the corporation is
Mr.. 3. G. Dawes of Columbus, Ohio,
and tie central offices Of the corpora
tion are located there, although the
marketing Of the products and much
OF the executive authority Of the
institution is in the hands Of the
branch located at Tdlsa, Oklahoma
The Ardmore branch is, as has
been stated, the largest refining plant
in southern Oklahoma. 1t has daily
capacity of 1000 barrels Of crude oil
all Of which is obtained from the
Healdton field through the pipe line Of
the Coline Company.
It, like most OF the western refin
cries, Is what is usually described as
a topping plant" that is. its manu-
featured products are, gasoline. ben
zine, kerosene, gas oil and fuel oil
It does not produce lubricating oils
The Ardmore plant covers nearly
or quite 100 acres of ground, It's
structures being separated by con
siderable distance, as is always the
custom in building refineries. because

duct. The main buildings are the

storage tanks for crude oil, storage

which Is run the waste oil gathered
through a sewerage system into which
the waste oil from every source about
the plant is conveyed and brought
to this tank to be re-handed ant
saved from loss. The entire storage
capacity of these various tanks is IL,
500 900 gallons.
This is the only plant in the Ard

The crude oil is practically all
treated in the two continuous pro-
cess" batteries of stills, the product
going TO the condenser boxes and
thence to the receiving house in the
form of benzine, kerosene, gas oil
and fuel OIL. and is distr buted 10 the
rundown tanks thence TO storage
tanks. From these storage tanks II is
pumped, as need be, back TO the

and separated into the commercial
commodity the business of the time
calls for. A plant official. speaking
of the different re-dist.lling processes,
remarked "benzine is only untreated,
or crude gasoline, and "distiliate" is
raw kerosene. Both have to be re-
treated and re-handled to produce the
variety of merchantablc products the
trade calls for" Hence 1t is that the

Carter county can boast OF having
within its bounds the most modern
and neatly arranged oil field camp In
the state OF Oklahoma. and perhaps
In the entire country. Although 1t
mag not be as large as others, never
;heless the foregoing statement as to
is modernity and neatness cannot be
denied. II is the Humble Oil and Re-
filming Company camp In the Hewitt
field. Unlike the other camps In the
local fields, the Humble camp Is locat-
"a several blocks from the main
road, and occupies the prettiest spot
In the territory.
To call 1t n camp is really doing an
injustice TO It's builders for 1t is real

horseshoe, with sidewalks all around

cities in Texas.
Mr.. Sykes was married to Miss
Vallie Sutherland in Ardmore, De-
cember Z, 1910. They have a hand
some home. Mr.. Sykes has pros
porous business. He looks the whole
world in the face because he owes
nothing.
He finds recreation and sport with
the rifle. Each year he goes on big
hunt. He is so good shot that he
can bring down an elk or an antelope
almost as far as he can see. On
his Alaska hunting trip he brought
back the biggest bag Of game ever
slain in that country. He tramps
the wild woods Of the Rockies, he
meanders down the winding streams
of Alaska, he looks out upon the blue
of the Pacific. he loves adventure, he
finds a thrill in knowing that he
places his feet where no man ever
trod before. He has the same spirit
that dominated Columbus when he
went across the untracked ocean to
discover new world. Combined
with his love Of adventure is a cour-
age that knows no bounds. He has
an inexhaustible fund of physical
strength. He has written magazine
articles on the wild life, and adven-
ture. He is sought after as an au-
thor. He is sought after by the
movies. He has not yielded yet but
with his fortune already made and
without a desire to own all the earth
he is likely to break away for a
vacation from business some Of these
days and become the author Of books,
to move before the world upon the
screen and to attempt to reach new
world at the north pole.

The oil department of the Santa
Fe Railway Company conferred a dis
tinct favor upon Ardmore when in
1908 it transferred C. l.. Sykes to the
Ardmore district.
MIR. Sykes was reared in Georgia
and he still has a warm spot in his
heart for the Empire state of the
South. In 1902 he went with the
Santa Fe and was assigned to work
in the gulf coast country of Texas.
From there he was sent to the
Wheeler field in Carter county which
was owned by the railway company.
For five years Mr.. Sykes cared for
the company's business and in 1913
when Healdton was discovered he re-
signed and went into business Tor
himself. He was an original stock
holder in the Coline Oil Company
where every man invested less than

A Simple Way To
Remove Dandruf

There Is one sure way that has
never failed to remove dandruff at
once, and that is to dissolve IT, then
YOU destroy It entirely. To do this,
Just get about four ounces of plain,
common liquid arvon from any drug
store (tris is afi you will necd), ap.
ply it at night when retirins; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub
it in gently with the finger tips.
BY morning, most IL not all, of your
dandruff will be gone. and three or
four more applications will complete.
ly dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace OF II, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
, You will md all itching and dig
uing OF the scalp will stop instant.
". and your hair will be fluffy, lus.
trous, glossy, silky and soft. and look
and feel . hundred times better.

hours For a few days iced should
be limited IN quantity.
II the foregoing method IS ineffec-
tual and an operation becomes neces-
sary, clip away the feathers from
part OF the crop, and with q very
sharp knife, lancet, or razor, make
an incision about IL inches long
through the skin and the wall OF the
crop. Then carefully remove the
contents Of the crop with the finger,
the handle OF a spoon, or some other
convenient object and wash out the
crop with warm water. Pass the
finger, well oiled, into the esophagus
to see that there Is no obstruction.
Sew up the wall OF the crop first,
then the outer skin, using white silk
OF linen thread and being careful not
to sew the two membranes together.
In a few days the wound will be
healed Feed sparingly on whole
grains until the wound heals, and do
rot give any water for "A hours.
