Lone Star Plans
Installation OF
Gas Compressors

The Lone star Gas Company will
install 80 gas compressors in various
fields during The coming summer,
according TO an announcement by
chief dispatcher. j. A. Martin. Of
Dallas The compressors, stated Mr..
Martin. will be- used TO augment the
building up OF higher gas pressure
during peak demands such as were
experienced during the cold spells OF
the past winer. The compressors will
also enable the company to secure
gas from wells whose rock pressure
is below the pressure of the pipe
lines. During the last 10 months. the
Lone star Company has added 100
wells 10 its system.
In 1921, the Lone Star had approx.
matcly 12j wells in eight fields as
compared with the present connec-
tions of 225 wells in II fields The
largest of these wells are located
in the Duncan and Robertson fields

WOOL TRADING SMALL.

BOSTON. March 20 (Special).-The
strength of the foreign wool markets
was a sustaining factor in the local
wool trading today, but did not stim-
ulate the volume of business, which
was small. Manufacturers are exer-
cising the utmost caution in their
purchases, and buyers scattered
throughout the sheep districts of the
west are cautious in the extreme in
making offerings for this seasons S
clips. Some small amounts of new
wool are being shipped on. contract
and against advances, but in general
the buyers and sellers on the ranges
are still far apart
Reports from Argentina indicate
that the old stocks there will be
cleaned up several months before the
shearing of the new wools.
