LORDsBURG OIL FIELD
GOT THE G00DS"-AI1MOST

On Tuesday afternoon all doubt was
dispelled from the minds OF skeptics,
when huge fiat car, loaded to the
nuzzle, was Kicked OUT on one OF
our many railroad sidings. The great
mass OF machinery and paraphranalia
was soon discovered by the crowd to be
q first class, up-to-date Star oil rig
capable Of going down into the bowels
Of the earth 1900 feet or more, II nee
essary.
''There Is no such word as II In the
Lordsburg oilfield, we've got the
goods" said Frank Pylant, expert oil
driller who has charge OF the work at
the well located n short distance west
OF the city, which all practical oil men
pronounce a winner and no mistake.
In an interview with Barton Smith,
who makes the unqualified statement
that he has set and tested over five
hundred wells, and never missed one
yet, he said:
1.-THE Lordsburg pool is twenty-six
niles wide and is formed by sixteen
big oil runs, extending from the north
east to the southwest, and going int
Old Mexico.
"Some are very shallow and some
ire very deep. There are three big
runs, one underneath the other.
Inside Of 1000 feet 1900 barrels
will be struck, inside Of 1000 feet A.
900 barrels will be struck and the third
big run Of 1900 barrels will be struck
under 1900 feet
II have set and tested over 500 wells
and never missed one yet"
Mr.. Smiths work in the Toyah field
where oil that sells for 5000 per bar
rel was struck at 200 IT. is triumph
of his most recent work.
With Pylant at the head of the drill
ing force there will be no "jockeying.'
Everything will be ON the square. ant
will move right along.-Lordsburg Lib

CHRISTMAS SHOPPING.

During the season Of Christmas
shopping, great care should be
taken to avoid colds that are
likely to result in grip and pneu-
monia. The excitement OF the
time, the sudden change from the
close and suffocating air OF the
big stores to the street, are all
dangerous.
The value of Father Johns
Medicine in treating and prevent
ing colds, grip and pneumonia,
has been proven by over 90 years
success. It is a pure and whole
some food medicine-builds new
flesh and strength to fight of
colds and grip, Its gentle laxa-
tive effect drives out impurities.

teed free from alcohol or danger

but make the package secure as to
the outside by using heavy paper and
stout string.
Do not use the merchants tie,
which is usually two turns of string
lengthwise of parcel and then the same
in the other direction, fastened by a
single knot. This is all right TO carry
package home from the shop, but to
use ii in mailing is to invi.S disaster.
II the string breaks at any point, it
soon all comes off, the paper wrap
added to the thousands lost annually
because of improper wrapping.
Instead, note how the string is tas
tened around packages sent by ex
press or large mail order firms and
learn TO do this for yourself. Note
the way in which the string is knot
ted around itself al every point where
il crosses another so that if a break
occurs, enough will hold to carry it
safely to its destination.
Write all addresses very plainly and
in ink and do not omit to place your
own name on the package as sender,
with full address.
Before wrapping, place a card or
paper inside the parcel, giving both the
name Of sender and receiver with nd
dresses in full. Then if the wrapper
is torn off or addresses rubbed OFF,
there is still something that will guide

LETTERS TOTHE EDITOR
Christmas Packages.

Editor, Barre Times; The following
suggestions as to the approved meth
DDS of mailing parcels containing
Christmas presents are made by one
who has had extended experience at
both the dispatehing and receiving
line:
Mail packages early There are
many who simply will not do this and
If you do, you will avoid the rush of
the three or four days just before
Christmas, when the volume Of mail Is
so great that 1t must be piled high on
trucks at junction points and at ter
minals and also more hurriedly han
died than in ordinary times.
Do not mail fragile packages at all,
as such cannot be insured unless by
error of mailing clerks unless so packed
as to make damage improbable. II
YOU must send fragile article, pack
it securely in light wooden box of
suitable size Paper and pasteboard
are not suitable wrappings for any
thing easily crushed or broken.
Use no ribbon on outer wrappings

Notes on the Game.

Spaulding's gymnasium was far too
small last evening to accommodate
the basketball fans. Why not have the
return game in the armory hall in
Montpelier, since Goddard's quasters
are even smaller than Spaulding's
After such game as that of last eve
ming il is certain that the hall would
be filled. 1t is undoubtedly safe to
say that hundreds more would have
attended the game had there been ca
pacity. Supporters know that when
900 tickets have been sold for the
gymnasium someone is going to be
crowded.
The results of last evenings game
for Spaulding should be nothing less
than encouragement, for the remainder
of the season. One thing certain, the
individual playing of last year was
missing. And to hold team like the
seminary's to single point lead bids
fair for the coming season, to say the
last.
To comply with the scholastic rules,
Cyran, a forward and one Of the best
men of the basketball squad at the
seminary, was withheld from the game
since both he and Harold Johnson,
regular guard, are graduates of sec
ondary schools.
How much more interesting is a
game conducted by wide awake ref
cree? Nothing but commentator is
due to Mr.. Swaffield.
Some of the rough edges will be
worn off with practice during the next
two or three weeks, and a much i'm
proved team be ready at Spaulding to
contend for the championship of the
northern league early in January. Pre-
paredness" is a fine slogan for attack.
