Drilling VIII BE Resumed.

For the past several weeks, since the
accident at the Southwest Petroleum
Company's camp, when a string of
casing was dropped several hundred
feet into the well with disastrous re-
suits, there has been much speculation
as to whether or not the casing could
be recovered so that any more drilling
could be done in this hole. Many peo-
pie, including many of the company Of
~ficials, were doubtful as to whether the
hole could be saved, but it is now re-
ported that sufficient of the damaged
casing has been take out to allow the
resumption of drilling operations with
in a short time. Several hundred feet
of the lost casing were brought out
the first of the week and il is said the
drillers have announced they can side
track" or crowd to one side the remain
ing casing and complete the well. 1t is
understood, however, hat they will de
vote a few more days to an attempt to
remove the last of the casing. and If
successful the "s~ide-trackimg'' opera
ton will not he necessary.

Stock Meeting to
Be Held June 2
Annual Gathering Of Members Of Sara
tOga Valley Stock Growers As
ISOLATION in Saratoga.

Officers of the Saratoga Valley Stock
Growers Association have issued the
tall for the annual meeting of that
body, to be held in Saratoga on June
2, 1922.
On account of the number of inn
portant matters hat win require con-
s~ideration of the stockmen at this
meeting, the business session has been
called for 10 o'clock a. m, and will be
held at the Saratoga town hall. The
live stock industry is recovering from
the depression of the past two years,
and the membership of the local as
ISOLATION will prepare for the good
times ahead. The officers urge that
every member of the association at
tend this meeting.
The supervisors of the Medicine Bow
and Hayden national forests will be in
attendance, and a feature that will be
of interest to all members will be an
address by Supervisor II. c. Hilton
of the Medicine Bow forest. Mr.. Hill
ton has signified his desire to sneak

will have something very interesting
to say.

Late Storm Is a Bad One.

The April shower of Tuesday even
ing has resulted in one of the heaviest
late falls of snow on record in this
country, accompanied by cold, bIustery
winds. The storm is likely t. cause n
heavy loss TO sheepmen Of the country,
as many flocks have just been shorn
and the lambing season is well along.
Mrs. Frances Want telephoned The
sun this morning from her ranch on
Cedar Creek, southeast of town, that
there was four feet of snow over that
part of the country and many drifts of
six feet and more, and that the men
were shoveling wagon trails in order
to get feed to their stock.
The snowfall about Saratoga has not
been of any consequence, on account of
the wal,n condition of the ground, but
in the foothills and mountains over
this entire section a very heavy fall is
reported.

large appropriations made for the

Never has the State Land Office
been more efficiently or economically
administered. In a little over three
years, through the state demanding ade-
quate oil royalties for its lands, the
permanent funds have been increased
from $2,573, 740.O9 to $S,204,O3364.
For the first time the Commissioner Of
Public Lands has collected interest on
daily deposits and turned the same in
to the State Treasury. on the basis Of
receipts the cost of the office has been
80 per cent less than under the pre-
vious administration.
The schools OF the State have great
~ improved through the efforts Of the
State Educational department and dur
ing the past year one million dollars
has been distributed, 5000, 10000 of
which came from state land funds, the
remainder representing receipts from
the Federal Oil and Gas Leasing Act.
Every effort has been made to pro
tect the interest of Wyoming in mat
tiers In which h federal government
and the state were involved. BY such
efforts IL has been possible to bring
about an agreement with the reclama-

After much consideration, I have de-
election to the position of Governor of
Wyoming subject to the Republican
Primary and the General Election.
During the time that | have occupied
the office of Governor. l have endeav-
ored to give both an efficient and an
honest administration. As to eff
cheney the people of Wyoming must be
the judges, but / can vouch for honesty,
as | know that no one connected with
the State Administration has been
guilty of graft or dishonesty, or profit
cd through his position at public ex-
pense. While the administration may
have been lacking in some things it has
lacked particularly a press agent to
Keep the public informed as to what
has beer accomplished, and it has
made no effort TO build up a political
machine.
While l have never been forgetful
that this is n republican administra-
tion and have done my utmost to pre-
serve harmony within the party, there
have beer instances where IL has not
been possible for me to comply with
requests or suggestions as to appoint
ments and policies when the same did
not seem to be compatible with good
government. In the matter of appoint
ments l have ~striven to select only
those whom / believed had the ability
20 fill the positions, governing myself
more by the qualifications Of the ap-
plicant than by political considerations.
Whenever possible ! have recognized
the ex-service men.
IL is not possible to call attention to
many of the things which have been nc
complished. During my tenure in Of

laws which are OF advantage TO the

spending OF money for those things

them to be excessive or Unnecessary

WAY TO PLANT IRISH POTATO
Crop Not Particularly Adapted to
Small Gardens and Requires
Well-Prepared Soil.

While Irish potatoes are not adapt
ed to growing in the extremely small
garden, most gardeners prefer to in
clude them in their list. One peck Of
seed Irish potatoes will plant about
300 feet of row. 1t seldom pays to
plant homegrown seed and it is much
better to use the homegrown pota-
toes on the table and purchase seed
that has been produced in some local
ity especially adapted for seed grow
ing. Potatoes require well-pre-
pared, rich soil, and it pays to use
commercial fertilizer well mixed with
the soil of the hills or the rows. The
seed should be cut two eyes to
each piece, with plenty of potato at
tached. One piece should be planted
In each hill and covered to depth of
about 31s or inches. The rows
should be at least 30 inches apart and
the hills IL to 10 inches apart in the
row.

HIGHWAYS ARE FLEECE LINED

men OF California and Arizona
Use IL on Roads.

Fleece-lined roads for getting motor.
lists over desert sands have recently
made their appearance and have sur
prised a great many motor tourists
travelling through certain sections of
California and Arizona, says the IL
lustrated World. There is such a low
market value upon cotton In certain
sections that II scarcely pays to
haul 1t to the railroad stations. Much
that is raised, therefore, goes into the
making of roads.
Ranchmen of the Salt River valley
of Arizona are doing with cotton Just
what farmers In other sandy sections
do with straw or brush. Cotton is
simply thrown down upon the road
over stretches where the sand is an
noying. Traffic over the road then
packs the cotton down into the sand
until 1t forms a firm, smooth and re-
silent surface, over which motor
vehicles may progress with almost as
much ease as over a paved street in
city.
