SHEEP OUTFIT TO USE
SHEDS FOR LANDING

These lambs will come into the
world under different auspices from
Others Of their species in Snake val
icy and the country round about.
Sheds and a boarded inclosure of
several acres of land will be erected
soon by the Birch Creek Land Com
pany OF Trout Creek, where lambs
will be born and .mothered durin @
the months of February and March,
and the markets will be supplied with
fat lambs long before others in the
desert country are ready FOR that
process.
1t is the old Jesse Cone ranch
which for few years has been in
the hands of the Neff brothers and
the Nelson family. Some months
back Salt Lake friends financed the
ranch on sufficient scale, and Chris
Nelson will soon make use of saw
mill in the gulches about Signal peak
in the Deep Creek range of moustains
where he will saw $4,000 feet of
lumber for these sheds and the fence
The ewes will be fed alfalfa hay
while they are lambing, and not a
solitary lamb will be allowed to fall
to coyotes that otherwise take large
percentage of them, and none will be
allowed to die from either exposure
or from being leppied because OF
their mothers dying or there being
twins.
The company has upwards of 1000
sheep on summer range near Up
ton, Utah, after a start OF only a
year and half and will increase the
bunch rapidly hereafter as oppor-
tunities are offered. But because
the lambing is to be done at home
does not mean that the sheep will
range there in summer. They will
be driven to Upton as heretofore,
the lambs being large and as we'll
able to travel by that time as their
mothers.
The company recently secured an
option on the old Henry Miller ranch,
six miles south of the home place,
and soon will complete the purchase.
This is sometimes called the Harris
place, 1t being where the Harrises
lived when they killed Cone as he
with deputy sheriff and some other
men rode up to have a talk over
some disputed cattle Considerable
government land is being secured
also, which will be fenced and uti-
lized. In the Nelson family there
are six grown sons, making the land
question simple one.
The Nelson's tried farming a few
Years ago in Florida, but found out
that Utah was the place for them and
returned. They sold their Florida
place after considerable delay and
have used the proceeds to fine ad-
vantage in Snake valley.

COUNTY RESUMES DRILLING FOR
ARTES|AN FLOW ON WHITE RIVER

Drilling for artisan water, with
the idea OF encouraging individuals
to do the same and to promote recla-
nation and settlement of vacant
lands, has been resumed in White
River valley by the county commits
sioners.
A thoroughly competent and ex-
perienced. driller, Mr.. Freewalt, who
drilled the Hans Anderson well at
Schellbourne pass. has been given
charge of the work A large truck
'oad of coal for fuel in drilling was
dispatched to White River yesterday
Some years ago the then commits
sioners started this drilling. The
hole went down about 500 feet, but
the material proved unstable and
caved down and stopped the work.
rectior of Embedding some rock to
bulkhead the stuff, but that has
failed. Further drilling that has
been attempted has convinced Mr..
Freewalt and the commissioners
that it will be necessary to move the
rig a short distance so as not to be
bothered by the sloughing in the
present hole.
All hands are convinced that the
hole can be put down successfully,
and they are optimistic about success
in tapping a flow that may ravolu-
tionize ranching in that whole val
ley.
The opportunities there are not
based on guesswork or imagination
solely. The fact of it being the head
of White river, which is more of
|subterranean than surface water
course. it extending as such for sew
eral hundred miles and finally max
ing into the Colorado river above the
site CT the proposed Boulder dam,
add much interest to it, showing that
its potentialities are unlimited
Besides the region is typical by
reason OF its being near the base OF
two high mountain chains, one taking
in the White Fine and Currant
ranges ON the northwest and west
and Ward mountain and the range
going with it on the east.
The drill that is being used there
belongs to the government. 1t has
been there about five years under ar
arrangement for the county to use
it. The one at Andcrson's belongs to
the county.
A private syndicate is being Or
ganized, but as yet has not taken
form, to drill for water within few
miles of the vicinity of the Ander-
son wells on government land. Among
the ones interested in this project
are Henry C. Nicholson, Fred NJ
Clark, Robert Baird and several 9th.
er Ely citizens. Nothing in the way
of work Is to be done about this un-
til after the White River well is
proved or disproved.

Eggs have advanced to prices rang
ing from IS to 55 cents a dozen and
are not nearly SO plentiful as they
were few weeks back when the hens
were coming across with them by the
dozen. The proportion OF the eggs
consumed here that are shipped
from Utah and Idaho has increased
rapidly with the waning of the season
as every day several cases are unload
ed from the express cars.
Chicken ranchers of western Utah
during the past year have planned to
ship eggs hither by truck, but
the difference in price between
that available at Salt Lake and here
has not justified the outlay, and there
seems to be no reason to expect such
10 happen this fall. When they can
be spared from that market the
price here is too low and when it ad-
vances the scarcity there prevents it.

EASTERN SECTION OF
CALDWELL COUNTY TO
GET ANOTHER TEST
William Green Spuds in on
OFT Farm-Kittle on
Dauis Tract.

Lockhart, Tex, Oct. 6.-Another
important oil test is assured for the
eastern part of Caldwell county.
William Green of Smithville is rig
cling up on the J.'J. OFT farm three
miles north of Delhi.
This test is about six miles south
east of the Triangle well, also being
drilled by Mr.. Green. The Triangle
test was started nearly two years ago,
and its history has been one contin-
ued series of misfortunes. 1t was final
ly drilled to depth of 2140 feet, at
which depth it made good showing
of high grade oil, but a crooked hole,
fishing jobs, ETC., hindered operations.
They are now pulling casing and
roaming. but Green is undecided as
to whether he will try to straighten
the hole. and bring in the well or move
the rig to a nearby location and drill
a new test.
Kittle and associates have spudded
in their test well on the ]. Z. ]. Davis
tract. The Davis farm is about %
miles nearly due east of Locfhart and
is near the Caldwell-Gonzales county
line. 1t is an important test. being
nearly twelve miles east of the test
of the S. G. Cole. tract. The Cole well
is now drilling in hard formation at
around HOO feet. The area in the
vicinity of the Davis, or Delhi test as
it is best known, has an excellent
geological report, and it is understood
that some of the major companies
have considerable acreage in that ter
ritory. The well is located on Sandy
Fork, north of HARDWOOD and near
Spencer's gin. This has been rather
noted section for some time. On the
Davis lease are several shallow wells
which made gas that would burn for
ceveral days. One of them is said to
have made flame twenty feet high.
and which almost burned up water
drilling rig. One of these wells near
the oil test location will burn a bright
flame today. The shallow water wells
in the immediate vicinity of the new
oil test are troubled with heavy oil
seepages.
Biologists give the Davis territory
three or four different producing hori-
IONS and Kittle and associates intend
TO test them all out, their contrac
calling for 5000 feet tests. if found
necessary. The test is said to be in
producing territory between Caldwell.
and Bastrop counties, and commands
big attention.
1t is reported that the Joliet school
house test, financed by local capt.
tai and now drilling at around 22SO
feet, has been sold to Houston par
ties for consideration of $4,000.
1t is reported that the Midwest
Texas test near Lytton Springs. ten
miles northeast of Lockhart. is drill
ing at around 1000 feet with another
good showing Of gas. This well made
a considerable showing of gas at 1905
feet.
The Limo Cara test, by the same
company, several miles north of the
Smith test, also in Bastrop county. is
now drilling in Austin chalk below
1000 feet. Chalk was struck in this
well at 1906 feet. They expect to 60
out of chalk at around 1920 feet and
to strike the pay horizon at about
$3.50 feet.
