LATE BASIN OIL NEWS.

The latest word from the Bluff
Oil fields is to the effect that the
Monumental Oil company had fin
ished their fishing job and had COM
menced pounding toward the oil
sands on the Hulkito structure
south of the river. The hole is now
close to the first sands and the re-
port of bringing in we'll is looked
for at any time.
Nothing further has been heard
of the Midwest rig which had been
sent into the Boundary Butte dis
trict from Pennington, N. NJ, but
unless the recent storms have de-
layed it, we may hear any time
now of the we'll having been spud-
ded in.
Orders have been let for a one
hundred barrel refinery to be placed
at the new well on the Bluff Oil
company holdings, and it will be
installed and placed in operation as
soon as the tanks and other equip.
ment arrive on the ground.-Sar

So the People May Know

Tbe Oratorical Contest, in all proba.
bility. will be cancelled for this year,
as it is very likely we shall not have
sufficient funds to send two representa-
tives to Denver. We have deposited
with the Montezuma Valley National
Bank up to date $32. so and two of our
towns have been heard from.
1t is tremendous undertaking to get
these funds together, and these children
safely to Denver and return. 1t is un-
wise to start on barely the necessary
amount, there should be a margin of
$50. 90 or more, in case of necessity, and
1 would not care to be responsible for
one of them for less than 800. 0.00-this
is placing the cost of the trip at the
lowest possible minimum. So I feel
sure that from present indications it
will crowd US to send one representa-.
tive. OF course, this must be the SPELL
ing Representative, as all of our schools
are taking part in this contest.
1t is proving to be lively one, and I
am convinced that good work has been
done along this line the past year.
Grades coming in are averaging 30 per
cent. This is far superior from that Of
last year. The highest grade on record
to date is 100 per cent. made by Alma
Conner of Lebanon. Boys and girls.
she is the little girl who went to the
State Capitol last year. Are you going
to make good fight in the coming dis
trict contest of March End? Alma will
represent her district in the county con-
test of March 18th, for there is only one
school in that district. The harder the
battle. the greater the honor in victory.
Let US make the contest of March 18th
another mile stone in our upward edu-
cational climb. The winner should be
100 per cent efficient. You CAN DO IT.

CONGRESSMAN ED TAY.
LOR GIVES HIS VIEW
ON THE ID. & X. G..
SITUATION

Hon. E. T. Taylor wired to
H. w. Robinson. president OF
the Delta Chamber of Com.
merce last week the following
on the railroad controversy:
Telegram concerning the
Rio Grande being taken over
by some other road received.
Interstate Commerce Com
mission officials advise me
hey are holding hearings up
on the possibility of the con-
solidation of these western
roads.
The Santa Fe has not asked
to buy the Rio Grande at all
but has officially asked if the
consolidation is ultimately or
dered that the Rio Grande be
put under the control of the
Santa Fe.
The Missouri Pacific has al
SO unofficially expressed a sim
liar hope that they be permit
ted to control it, but nothing
definite has been done. The
Burlington is taking no action
at least on the surface.
1t is really a financial battle
or Jungle in Wall street and
the report sent out every few
days are purely pipe dreams.
There is nothing at all done
or definitely known here in
Washington. These hearings
may run on for years, and |
am advised that the wishes OF
the people along the Rio
Grande will not be considered
at all.
If any railroad wants to buy
the Rio Grande and the Ric
Grande will sell, as it seems te
be, they can promptly get per
mission to do so.
They say this apparent re
ferandum to the wishes of tho
people out there will cut ne

TURKENS-NEW HYBRID FARM
FOWLS.

One of the most wonderful hy-
brid fowls to which our attention
has been called is the turken, which
is the result of a cross between
turkey and chicken. c. A. Spen-
Ger, of Santa Rosa, Calf, had
White Holland turkey gobbler that
grew up with Rhode Island Red
pullet with which it mated. The
eggs laid by ihe pullet were saved
and hatched. Poultry experts from
Washington, Oregon and Califor-
MIA gave Mr.. Spencer some valua-
Bile advice in developing and propa-
eating the hybrid fowls resulting
from this cross which were named
"turkens" by Mr.. Spencer.
About two years ago DR.. w. l..
Patterson of West Plains, Mo-, Oh
tanned a foundation stock from Mr..
Spencer, and he now has flock OF
.o of these valuable fowls. They
show more of the characteristics OF
the chicken than of the turkey. The
eggs are quite large, and the hens
average a little more than 200 eggs
