COLLEGE OPERA
PROMISES WELL
Naughty Marietta" Is
Expected to Please
the Patrons

The Naughty Marietta" this years
College of Idaho opera offering. will
take Caldwell by storm, is the predic-
ton OF those who have closely fol-
lowed the preparation of the play. 1t
will be presented three times in Cald-
well. on the evenings of May II and
Is and a special matinee for school
children only May IL. For the first
time. this years opera will be taken
to Boise for presentation where il will
be shown May 2l at the high school
auditorium.
Scenery will be particularly at
tractive. the requirements being rather
elaborate and said to be thoroughly
effective. Variety is a feature of the
settings with one scene at sunrise. an
other in a ballroom with a grand
stairway. Other features that will be
introduced include a marionnette the
alter, some parrots, hand organ and
a monkey.
That the opera is quite an under
taking is evidenced by the fact that
the preliminary financial outlay ap-
proaches closely $500. In order to
insure the success OF the venture, good
crowds will be necessary at all per-
formances. But hackers OF the show
are confident that its merit will so APP
peal to the public that its success will
be assured.
The music of THE Naughty Mari
eta" comprises some OF the finest that
Victor Herbert ever wrote for light
opera. There is not a dull moment
unsteady, Each number has a bright,
spontaneous, ging-able melody-the
kind that you remember. Each of the
principals has fine solo, and there
is a quartet, brilliant waltz, dashing
soldiers, chorus, etc. The most ia
miliar numbers are the rousing Italian
street song. and the enhancing tenor
solo, I'm Falling in Love with Some
one" but there are many others just
as good. The comedy songs are no
less engaging than the more serious
ones. There are real, dramatic mo-
ments in the music as well as in the
action.
Taken all in all, il is believed that
the college has selected very good
music feast in THE Naughty Mari

Lidderdale Tool Company
Will Open Machine Shop

The Lidderdale Tool company, new
~ incorporated company which is
one of the best equipped machine
shops in the entire state and is par.
ticularly qualified to do oil well tool
and machine repairing. is one of the
newer concerns to become established
in business circles of wyomIng's

The shop when opened will be un.
der the direction of F.. E. Lidderdale
with h title of general marfager.
while A. Il. Lidderdalc is president.
Both are able and experienced ma.
ohinlsts and have regulations for
ability in the industry.
Special interest is attached to the
new American tool lathe. which
weighs eleven tons and with It heavy
cuts in tough steel. forging and other
repairing, which has heretofore been
sent out Of the state, can be done
here in Casper in a few hours. As u
result there will be 4 saving to the
oil companies, not only OF time, but
also of considerable expense.

Lidderdale Tool company says:

MILLIONS SPEN! ON DRY HOLES
SURVEY is COMPLETED FOR i. S,

In the quest of that w~orld-sought
fluid, petroleum. probably thirty mil.
ion dollars is spent yearly in the
United States in drilling operations
which result only in dry holes in the
ground, states the bureau of mines,
which has Just completed a general
study OF methods Of prospecting for
oil and gas. In a period of two years
51S4 dry ole were drilled in this
country at an average cost Of at least
So 600 per hole. California and New
York show the lowest percentage Of
dry holes, undoubtedly because Of
wildcat drilling. Oil and gas AVE
been found in at least twenty-three
states and Alasaka.

Local Roads
Improved In
Seven Years
State System of More Than
5000 Miles to Be Finished
with Federal Aid.

The last seven years have been a
period Of great road development in
the state of Wyoming according to
figures collected by the Bureau Of
Public Roads. From 1914 to 1921, the
total road mileage has increased from
14.797 miles to 46.526 miles. This is
in strong contrast to the majority Of
states which have made great progress
in road improvement. but without any
appreciate change in total mileage.
During the seven.year period the
mileage of improved road has in.
creased from 1,724 miles to 5.s6T
, 1923-02-11

1873 miles OF improved road were
completed in tho state and consider
able maintenance work done.
That federal aid is playing n con-
siderable part in road advancement in
this state Is shown by the fact that
on August 81 474 miles of federal aid
road had been completed. 421 miles
were either under construction or lp.
proved for construction and nearly
$500. 900 was available for new
projects.
The state system of over 5000 miles

time.

which was cut at 1913 feet on Sec
ton 16-15-104. This was later raised
to 100000 by deeper drilling when
the pressure became too great to drill
against and operations were suspend
ed. Gas in about the same quantity
has since been developed by Midwest
Refining company, and several opera
tons in the field were near the sand
when slowed down or stopped by bad
weather. Some of the largest operat-
ing companies in the country have
become interested in this field and it
its expected that the coming summer
will see n vast amount of DEVELOPMENT
in this field.
Other Field Extensions.
Extensions to the Lost Soldier field
during the summer by the Hughes Oil
company and the firm of Good & Nut
ting which proved a large area to the
northwest from what had previously
been considered the limits of the
structure. The well of the former
company came in with a flush produc-
ton of 5000 barrels. being second in
size OF the deep sand wells Of the
$780, Al NOod -ullAilB we'll WAS
reported as being a 1000 barrel pro
Queer.
Extensions were also made to the
Elk Basin field in the northwest part
of the state which added considerable
acreage to production and the Ohio
cut the Tensleep at 1900 feet In the
Grass Greek field, proving another
producing zone in addition to adding
to the producing area by bringing in
outside wells.
The Lakota sand was also found to
be productive in the Big Muddy field
by the Midwest Refining company,
but owing to the small amount of pro-
duction n the depth of drilling it
will no doubt be some time before
this sand Is more fully developed.
Fargo Proves Vast Oil Area.
The Fargo Oil company drilling in
South Casper Creek struck the Ten
sleep sand which carried big produc-
ton Of dark oil, his being the first
time that and has been penetrated
n nat part of the state and also the
first deep sand oil production for the
district although the shallower sand
are highly productive of gas, that
being the source of supply for domes-
tic purposes in Casper. At the time
his is written the sand a not yet
been fully penetrated but has been
drilled to n depth of approximately
200 feet which gave promise of being
at least n 1000 barrel well and has
every indication of opening up what
may eventually become the largest
dark oil field in the country.
Sheldon Dome Proved.
The Superior syndicate proved a
new field known as the Sheldon struc-
ture about so miles northwest Of
Riverton with n good producer Of high
grade light oil in the second Wall
Creek and It is expected that about
4 1000 acres will be found productive
in this dome. This field is largely
owned by interests having headquar-
tiers at Casper and it is expected that
1t will be developed extensively dur
ing the present year.
wild cat tests are being drilled in
all parts of the state, many of which
win no doubt be proved during the
present year and with the develop
ment now planned and that which
will naturally follow the proving of
new districts, together with the
strengthening demand for oil. 1923
gives every indication of being the
most active year in oil circles hat the
state has ever known.
