U. P. Applies to
Purchase S. 6 E.
Will Make Local Line a Permanent
Branch of System-Means Much
to the Platte Valley.

According to "A Washington dispatch
appearing in the daily papers last Sat
urday, the Union Pacific officials on
November DIST made application to the
Interstate Commerce Commission for
permission to acquire permanently the
Saratoga & Encampment line. The re-
cent agreement with the Morse
Brothers was to the effect that al
though the Union Pacific would in any
case operate the road for Il three-year
period, they held an option to buy the
road at any time during this period.
the price to be the junk valuation of
the property. This valuation was ar
rived at some time since, and it now ap-
pears that the examination of the To-
cal line by a dozen or more different of
ficials of the Union Pacific during the
past month has led to the desire 10
add its mileage permanently to the
Union Pacific system.
While many rumors are now current
to the effect that this development. in
dictates extension of the line in various
directions and for various purposes,
none may be relied upon, and 1t would
be more conservative to guess that the
Union Pacific officials have simply de
, 1921-12-01

cided that the line can be made to oper-
ate at a profit, and that the property is
a good buy.
One result which may reasonably be
expected to come of this purchase. and
which will mean II great deal to the
valley, is the removal of the Union
Pacific tie-loading plant from Fort
Steele to Saratoga. There was small
hope for this so long as the Union Pa
cific operated the branch line ON an ex-
detrimental basas, but with permanent
ownership of the branch it could hard
ly be expected that the tie drives will
be continued below Saratoga. All the
ties are taken to the Laramie plant for
treatment, and the haul from
Saratoga to Laramie would be only
five miles greater than under present
conditions from Fort Steele. and the
additional five mile railroad haul
would do away with the 76-mile river
drive between Saratoga and Fort
Steele, which is said to be n very ex-
pensive part of the annual drive. Var
ious well-posted men have offered the
opinion that 10 more ties will be
driven below Saratoga, ami it is hoped
their prOphesy will be realized, as the
tie plant and its payroll would be n
addition to the of
the town.

County Hospital
Will Open Soon
Public Is Invited TO Visit and Inspent
the New Building a Week From
Sunday, December 18th.

But few people in Carbon county
realize what n complete and absolutely
modern hospital they now own. With
a view to acquainting the public with
this magnificent institution, the board
of trustees invites everybody to bring
their friends and inspect this building
ion Sunday, December 18th. The doors
4 O'Clock p. m, and tea will be served
by the Ladies' Auxiliary from . to 4
in the afternoon.
The memorial hospital is an impress
~sive-looking edifce from the outside,
but words will not serve TO express
how much more impressive it is from
the inside. 1t is safe to say that it is
absolutely the last word in modern
hospital construction. 1t is also safe
TO say that there is not a finer hospital
in the state of Wyoming, nor do we
believe any other state can produce
one to surpass it. Not so large as
some, but for its size money can buy
nothing better.

needed in Carbon county. One cannot
help but reflect upon the possibilities
for service TO mankind which such a
hospital could have rendered during
the three or four years last past, and
no N may look upon the finished pro-
duct without a feeling of thanksgiving
for the lives which may be saved there
in the future.
The trustees have secured Miss
Phoebe Parmalee of Denver as super
.intendent. Miss Parmalee has had
many years of experience in hospital
management, and has a record which
is seldom equalled. She ONE highly
recommended by the most eminent
hospital authorities in the west.
The memorial hospital was erected
and equipped at a cost of approximate
.ly $155, 10000. 100000 was raised by
n bono issue, and the balance is being
supplied by private subscriptions, most
ly from persons and organizations in
and around Rawlins. Between 100000
and $4,000 has been subscribed up to
this time.
The board especially invites all Car
bon county citizens living outside of
Rawlins to arrange il possible to visit
the new hospital on Sunday, December
18th, that they may know more of this
institution, of which we may all be
so justly proud.

Drilling to Begin
Within Few Days
Everything in Readiness to Start Work
OF Deep Test Well in the
Saratoga Field.

Great quantities of materials of all
sorts have been brought in the past
week by the Southwest Petroleum Com
pany, and the big drill will be put to
work on the first deep well in the local
field within n very few days. There
had been reports hat drilling would be-
gin today, but it is said this morning
that another day or two will b. re.
luired by the drillers to get everything
strung up in proper shape. Three
truck loads of casing. cable and other
materials passed through town this
morning enroute to the drilling site,
and practically all necessary materials
for the beginning of the work are now
on hand. The water line is practical
ly completed, and large tanks have
been erected to hold the fuel oil, which
will be hauled on trucks from Fort
Steele.
Many estimates are heard as to the
length of time that will be required to
put this hole down to "A depth of $500
or 1000 feet, which is said to be the
companys goal, and these glesses vary
between three and six months. SO far
as the field has been explored, no hard
formations have been encountered, the
undertaking stratas being principally
oil shale, and it is expected that the
Southwest Company will put this hole
down in record time. Their equipment
is first-class in every respect, and ex-
.pense has not been much of n considera-
ton in their preparations for the work
here. 1t is safe to say that before the
next issue of The Sun the drilling
work will he well under way.

my husband and boarder to do for,

If you are in a rundown physical

Cardui is a purely vegetable, tonic
