SPEAKING OF ROADS

We have been speaking of good roads in these colums and now we are going to rise and register a few re- marks about a bad one. We know that we are poor, we know all about that, but when just a couple of days with a team would fix up a spot that has broken, and will break. dozens of auto springs we feel that the economy isof doubtful value. We are speaking of the wash just beyond the McLaws ranch on the St. Joe road south of river. We have just been over 1t and perhaps we speak feelingly, as a matter of fact we did feel it, and still do. The approach on the east, is to say the least, very difficult and might un- der some conditions be con- sidered dangerous. Many people have thought this, so why not say it?
The Holbrook news., 1922-12-01

Despite the bad weather a large crowd of Holbrook people attended the barbecue given at the spudding in of the Taylor-Ful We'll No. 1 on Higgins Dome at noon on Thanksgiving Day. About a hundred and seventy-five enjoyed the generous hospi- tality of Dr. Taylor and his confreres and passed down "the bread line" and receiv- edbounteous handouts" of roast beef and lamb from Chef John Blevins, who did himself proud in the matter of culinary perfection, des- pite his handicap of high winds, rain and snow. A feature of the occasion was the cutting and distribution of an enormous "A To. fruit cake baked in honor of Dr. Poling's birthday.
 After the barbecue the crowd was given a chance to view the eOuipment of ma. chinery which is of the best which the market affords and the largest which-money can buy. If anything was needed to emphasize the fact that this company means business and is prepared to go down 4000 fit. or more ir an effort to test the field a sight of this new and modern machinery so completely equipped and competently installed would provide it.

A STATEMENT CONCERNING THE

The Taylor Fuller We'll is being drilled under the gen eral auspices of 3 holding company, control of which is held by s. Earl Taylor and .C.M. Fuller, of Jacksonville, Florida. Other interested parties live in New York, New Jersey, Ohio and Calf ornia.
 The general plan which has been in mind from the beginning involved three test wells in the Lower Structure Area, of which the Taylor-Fuller Well No. l is the first. No announcement can be made at this time concerning other wells as much vii! depend upon show.ngs made as we go down on Higgins Dome.
 While 1t is impossible at this time to predict the out come of the present drilling operation, 1t is confidently believed that the well WI go down rapidly to a suffi- cient depth to test out the sands at this point, and if

modern geological science can be trusted, there is every reason to. believe that oil will be found in commercial quanties at this point.
 If this should not be so. there would be no reason to feel that the field as a whole is condemned, because a certain number of dry holes have been drilled in every big oil field that has been brought in, and it may be that more than one test will be necessary to discover the actual pools which are be- lieved to be in the vicinity of Holbrook.
 The management of the Taylor Fuller We'll make no professions as to what will or will rot be accomplished, and can only guarantee that when statements are Offici- ally made, they will be au- theptic, and that, so far as it lies in the ability of those in charge to do so, the we'll will be handled inIan efficient a II d expeditions manner, with no attempt to exploit the public but with an earn est effort to make an ade- quate test of the deep sands at this point.
 s. EARL TAYLOR
 At the conclusion. of the exercises MT. Durfee was given the order and the enor- mously powerful 5000 pound drill made the earth fairly tremble with its crushing shocks as it started its nerve thrilling, adventurous search through | h e rock-ribbed frame of mother earth for her coveted store of black and flowing gold. Everyone felt the importance of the occasion and many heartfelt and sincere good wishes were carried with it's steadily plunging strokes.

Cruising Around the World
By LESLIE ROWLAND (Aboard S. S. Laconia)

America or to disembark and cross
the United States by train. Seated
comfortably in our steamer chairs on
the broad decks of the Laconia we
will be able to inspect at our leisure
the engineering wonders of the great
ditch
Our sailing time for the entire
world cruise will be trifie less than
eighty days 1t will be recalled that
the Jules Vernes hero made the
world tour in exactly the same time.
Modern travel makes it possible,
however, to tour the globe while en-
joying luxuries unknown a genera
ton ago. We modern globetrotters
aboard the Laconia will not be
obliged to repack our trunks until
we arrive at the dock in New York
from which we sailed. In all some
fifty days will be allowed for sight
seeing ashore in addition to the
pleasures of the long ocean voyage.
We sailed out of New York in win
ter weather well muff1ed in furs
against the wind which drew in from
the sea. In day or two more we
will exchange these for summer
clothing. The journey will be made
through summer seas throughout
with the single exception of the visit
to Northern Japan. Mid-winter will
be spent in the Far East and in the
Mediterranean and we will only re-
turn to New York when winter is a
thing of the past. The Laconia was
specially chartered for the world
cruise by the American Express Com
pany in view of her complete equip
ment which affords every luxury of
modern travel under all conditions.
We are already busy with plans
for our visit to Havana the next port
of call. The itinerary thereafter has
been so arranged that each day will
have an attraction of it's own. From
Cuba we will cross the Caribbean
Sea, pass the Panama Canal and pro-
coed to San Francisco. Our next Wis
it will be at the Hawaiian Islands.
One of the features of the cruise will
be the extended visit to Japan includ-
ing visits to Yokohama, Tokyo, Kyo-
to and inland cities. Next in turn we
will visit Port Arthur, Using Tao,
Shanghai, Formosa and Hongkong
A novel feature of the cruise will be
a visit to the Island of Formosa. Ma
Mia will be visited and in succession
Batavia, Singapore and Rangoon.
The visit to India will include calls
at Calcutta, Bombay, and visits to in
land cities.
While our friends at home are
battling the winter, we will be cross
ing the Red Sea, visiting Egypt and
the Holy Land. On our cruise to the
Mediterranean, the Laconia will call
at Naples, MANAGE Monte Carlo,)
and Gibraltar. My next letter will
be written during the cruise through
the Panama Canal and up the Pacific
coast to San Francisco.

After Twelve Years
Mineral Point Testimony Remains
mistaken.

mistaken.
Time is the best test of truth.
Here is Mineral Point story that
has stood the test of time. 1t is a
story with a point which will come
straight home to many of us.
George H. Hartley, cigar manu-
facturer, 1104 State street, Mineral
Point, gave the following statement
August 2, 1907: 81 have used few
boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills and can
recommend them for aching back
and weak kidneys. l had been suff-
ering for several months from weak
kidneys and sharp pains in the small
of my back. My kidneys were sore

Pharmacy and after using them, the
pain disappeared and the kidney Sc
cretions were cleared up. / am feel

The first pleasure cruise to sail
completely around the world is at
last on its way. AS / looked down
from the lofty bridge of the Laconia
the departure presented a stirring
spectacle. Aboard the great liner,
gay with it's holiday bunting, our
party waved an enthusiastic farewell
to the throngs ashore. AS the liner
slipped out into the sea and turned
seward on it's long journey, our ears
were deafened by the noisy salutes
from scores of craft and the demon
stration continued far down the har-
Dor.
No one we find has been left be-
hind. Despite the size of this party
of globetrotters and the thousand de-
tails of leavetaking the departure has
proceeded smoothly. Most of us
came aboard yesterday day ahead
the ships company has made itself
completely at home. The baggage
has been distributed and unpacked,
seats have been chosen in the dining
salons and chairs secured on deck
for the long cruise. By the time we
reach Havana, our first port of call,
we will all be well acquainted.
Our party comprises four hundred
and sixteen passengers who will
make the complete cruise of the
world. On our arrival at San Fran
cisco our numbers will be increased
by forty additional passengers. Our
ship could carry double this number
but by limiting our party we are as
sured plenty of cabin and deck space.
The ships company is highly rep
resentative. 1t is gathered from 112
cities and towns in thirty-four differ
ent states. A number of prominent
people are aboard who will combine
business with pleasure. On the
cruise of the world it will be possible
for them to study political and eco
nomic conditions at first hand. Mr..
William P Gundry is on the ship
making the cruise.
There is a thrill for us in the
thought that our cruise will make
the circle of the earth on exactly
the four hundredth anniversary of
Magellan's first cruise around the
world. This year marks the second
great quadri-centennial in American
history, the first being of course the
discovery of America. For thou
sands of miles we will follow the
same general course taken by Magell-
an just four centuries ago. Unlike
most pleasure cruises ours will visit
strange countries and peoples far off
the beaten track of travel which have
changed little since the days when
they first were visited by Magellan.
1t is matter of pride with us that
we will be the first globetrotters to
make the tour of the world by way
of the Panama Canal. Heretofore
world cruises have been obliged to
make the long detour around South
