LAND LEASED FOR OIL.
WORK NOW GOES STEADILY ON
Expected That Drilling Operations

Store Sections of County Before
Winter Weather Sets In. "'-
(From Fridays Daily Herald.)

(From Fridays Daily Herald.)
The taking OF oil leases in the
Hampshire and Fly's Store sections
OF the county goes steadily on. Ac-
cording to papers filed with County
Register J. j. Pogue, leases in these
two sections have already been secur-
ed on more than $1,000 acres of land,
almost equally divided between the
two sections. Some three or four
weeks ago, leases on eleven thousand
acres in these sections were filed by
C, H. Holland, Western Oil man, and
since that time Mr.. Holland and his
co-laborers have been busy securing
additional leases. Since the first
papers were filed for record, leases
have been secured on twenty three
farms, aggregating 1926 acres In the
Hampshire section, and on sixteen
FARMS in the Fly's Creek sectidif tot
alling 1920 acres, bringing the grand
lOtdl W Iuo DclOfo HleHtlOINu liz III y
of about $4,000 acres. '-'- Y
The leases taken expire autoihoti-
ccSy one year after the date of sign
ing unless oil operations are begun
before that time. The first leases
were dated about the middle of April
1921, therefore it will be necessary for
the oil people to start drilling before
that time if the leases hold good.
The people of both the Hampshire
and Fly Store communities are conf
dent that drilling will begin before the
end of the present summer, as it is
realized that there is very little wealth
er between the middle of November
and April in which oil operations
could be begun under favorable con-
ditions. Practically all farmers in
these two sections have already leas-
ed their property, and Mr. Holland
and his f9QlSwp9rrtkeer ;. expect to make
practically 'aieRan sweep Of these
sections.

(From Fridays Daily Herald)
Special to The Herald.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, June 3.-The
financial drive through which South
ern Methodists are seeking $33,0000U0
for Christian education will be contin-
ued another week. According to au-
thorities at headquarters this extern
sion of time is granted at the request
of pastors and laymen throughout the
connection; and those churches which
have not attained their full quotas will
be allowed another week in which, to
secure pledges.
1--WE are organized for victory. said
DR.. j. H. Reynolds, director general
of the Christian endowment move
ment, "and we know no such word as
fail Many battle has been lost by
lack of courage or zeal in the last crit
ical hours of the struggle. The time
for hesitation or doubt Is passed and
the time for action is at hand. The
results now largely depend upon the
faithfuness, zeal and enthusiasm
with which pastors, presiding elders,
directors and members of teams pre-
sent the financial appeal
While many churches throughout
the connection have raised their quo
tas and more, a large number will not
launch the drive until Sunday June s,
which will necessitate more work in
securing pledges during the week Of
June 5-12 Ample opportunity will be
given by this extension of time for ev.
cry church which has not raised its
quota to continue the work with re.
newed enthusiasm. Many churches
have done nobly during the past week.

(From Fridays Daily Herald)
AS you mopped the prespiring brow
during the past month It was hard to
believe the mean temperature for the
month was one degree below normal
washnt' it?-Thats what 1t was acs
cording to the observations made by
Mrs. j. w. Fleming, of the Govern
ment weather bureau at Ashwood. ~
Not only was the temperature be-
low normal, but the rainfall was near
ly two inches below normal, or exact
ly 1876 inches below. During the en-
tire month the precipitation was only
two inches, and half of that amount
fell on May 2, therefore has been less
than one inch of rainfall over the
county in the past thirty days.
The hottest May during the past
twenty years came in 1902 with a
mean temperature of 71.5 degrees,
and with rainfall of 100 inches.
while the coolest May on record came
in 1919 with mean temperature of
'65 degrees, and with G0.10 inches of
rain, the greatest precipitation for the
month on record. The smallest amount
of rainfall for May on record came In
1912 with 153 inches.
The mean temperature for the
month just passed was 666 degrees,
while the warmest day was on May
20, when the thermometer read 81
degrees, the Bird being the coolest
day with temperature of Al degrees.
Practical two inches of rain fall dur
ing the month, rain falling on seven
days.
During the month there were seven
clear days. twenty-five partly cloudy
days and two dark cloudy days. The
thermometer registered above 80 de-
grees only one time The prevailing
direction of the wind was from the

grabbed the trousers of the sleeping

through the winow, holding the trous-
