Only three compilations were report

In the Beaver creek section OF Floyd

This county is looked upon as one
wen worth testing and much work is
being planned in hopes OF making big
extensions to the field.
Recent Developments indicate a
shifting In general interest in foreign
oil fields from Mexico 20 South Amer
lea. For the last few years many OF
the big petroleum companies Of the
United States have been gradually
reaching out and acquiring large
blocks OF acreage in Columbia Ven

the Latin American republics. Altho
actual drilling on much OF this acre
age was held up during the periods OF
depression in industry, the recent re-

RIVER DISTRICTS
ARE MERGED
u. s. Engineer Offices Nov
ed From Wheeling and
Cincinnati to Hunt
ingtOn.

The following from the Cincinnati
ENQUIRER is of local interest. The
change probably will take Mr. B. F.
Thomas to Huntington:
For the purpose of effecting econo-
mics and increasing efficiency orders
were issued yesterday by General Lam
sing H. Beach, Washington, D. c.,
Chief OF Engineers U. s. A., to Col.
Charles w. Kutz. Cincinnati United
States Division Engineer, to merge
and reorganize Cincinnati District No.
2 in charge of Col. william p. Stokey,
and the Wheeling District, in charge
Of Major Malcolm Elliott, into one dis
trict. with headquarters of the merged
district at Huntington, w. Va.
The change Is to go into effect July
!, 1t was announced by Col. Kutz. 1t is
said to have been brought about large
ly by the fact that the Ohio river locks
and dams in the Wheeling District,ex-
cept Lock and Dam No. 81, have been
completed, and there is no need for
the maintenance Of the Wheeling office.
The locks and dams now being con-
structed by Cincinnati District No. 2
will be completed by the merged dis.
trict. 1t is said, and Dam No. 81. not
yet completed in the Wheeling dis
trict, will be added. The new district
will have supervision of three Of the
four Ohio river tributaries now in the
Cincinnati district, the Big Sandy,
Kanawha and Muskingum. The Ken
lucky river will be transferred to the
First Cincinnati district,
The merged district will have SUI
of Ohio river territory now
supervised by the two districts.
There will be changes in the clerical
forces, 1t is understood, but those in
the Cincinnati district who desire to
remove to Huntington will be accom-
modated
The Second Cincinnati District has
been in existence more than 40 years.

LEARN TO BOSS YOURSELF.

An intelligent and well-trained SUI
perintendent recently lost his job on
big farm.
He couldn't understand why he was
discharged. He mad learned agricul-
ture in well. known State university.
He understood all about soils and the
rotation of crops and the use of mod
ern machinery
The farm didn't pay. but 1t never oc-
CURED to blame himself for that. He
thought 1t was weather conditions or
poor soil.
When he went to the owner, who
also was a trained, scientific farmer,
to inquire the reason for his discharge
he was told:
81 had to let you go because you
never learned to boss yourself. l can't
be bossing you all the time. / don't
live on this farm. / can't leave other
work that | have to do to run over
here and tell you that q tractor needs
to be overhauled every six months;
that barn that isn't painted regu-
larly will soon fall to pieces; that APP
Piles will only stay certain time in
storage without sorting over before
they will rot and become useless.
You know those things as well as
do, but you must be continually told
them or you don't remember them.
The man who works for me has got
to know how to be his own boss. There
is future on this farm for any man
who is trained for the job. and knows
how to give himself orders and take
them. don't think you are that kind
of a man."
1t happened that this particular
youth was able to break bad habits, so
he asked for another chance and got
1t. This time he bossed himself. When
he saw that fence was down he fixed
IL himself or had 1t fixed.
When he saw that a crop wasn't
doing well. he plowed it up and put
in late crop Of something else that
promised to thrive better in that soil.
And he is now on his way toward
partnership in the farm.
No matter how we'll you know your
job, you have got to know how to be
your own boss, to make yourself do
things that need doing, without watt
ing for some one else to tell you.
You can never successfully boss 9TH
er men TIL you can boss yourself. You
can never be anything more than a
wage slave" II you have TO be told
when and how to do your work.--John
Blake In Times Star.
