Rate Reduction
On West Texas
Grain Shipments

Through the efforts Of the West
Texas Chamber of Commerce and
other interests in West Texas the
Interstate Commerce Commission
has been put into the work Of put
ting West Texas shipping points on
an equal basis with grain shipping
points in the northwestern states,
such as Minnesota, North Dakota,
South Dakota, Nebraska and Iowa,
ct al
A letter to the local Chamber Of
Commerce secretary points out that
the West Texas Chamber is still
pushing the work with great hopes
Of securing even greater reduction
in freight rates from West Texas
grain shipping points than have al
ready been made as a result Of the
action Of the Interstate Commerce
Commission.
The reductions being made thru
these efforts materially effect every
grain shipper in West Texas, and
news Of the reduction of rates is a
great stimulant to the grain grow
ing industry out here.
One group and one rate for all
points along the Santa Fe branch
lines included, is one Of the favor
able features Of the plan as outlined.
Mr.. Martin has a complete list Of
reductions made on file at his office,
and will be glad to give grain ship
pers any information whatever.

MOORE WELL AT CROSS
PLAINS IS NEW EXTENSION

Cross Plains, Texas, july 81
Moore ct al on the Acker farm two
miles east Of Cross Plains drilled
into the Top Of the pay last night
AZ 246O feet. The strike was un-
expected At that depth as the wells
on the Teston lease three fourths
mile east had shown the sand TO be
running deeper and the pay WAS not
looked for under $500 feet. The
well Is gassing heavily and making
several barrels II oil from the shell
on top Of the sand but the real
pay has not vet been touched. Drill
ing has been suspended until the
five inch casing can be set and
storage erected and will perhaps be
completed Sunday or Monday.
II is variously estimated as good
for from 200 to 500 barrels when
drilled in and will open mile or
so of new territory 10 the west Of
present production of the field be-
tween Cross Plains and Pioneer and
in view of the new territory opened
is by far the most important well

whether in small quantities Of boy
the barrel, the bread formula used,
the kind and price Of fuel, the sort
Of oven used, and the number of
lOaves made at a time are all factors
affecting the final cost Of the home
made loaf Of bread.

small quantities and which were
baked in an uninsllated gas oven

used in the formula tested and
would have increased the cost Of
the bread.
A batch Of eight loaves was made
by a more economical formula, and
all materials though bought at re-
tail prices, were purchased to better
advantage. Strong" flour which
gives high bread yield was selec-
