Rumored That Oil and Gas
Have Been Struck Here

learn, all those who visited the well
report that little oil can be seen
or the water taken out by the bail
er- Some say that they could see
blush smoke after the bailer was
pulled from the hole; some state
that they could smell the smoke and
that the odor thereof was like unto
the odor of oil smoke,
Several said they could hear the
gas bubbling up through the water.
Various theories are advanced
among village gossipers and others
to account for the oil. Some think
that the drill has hit pocket of oil
and gas while others believe that
the oil comes from an oil shale for
nation somewhere in the hole.
Mr.. Carpenter is optimistic and
Is reported to consider the indica-
tions exceedingly favorable.

'OakleyNeeds
More Money
Why Application for Six
Per Cent Loans Was
Not Granted
Loans Conditional
Oakley Should Be Ready
for Era of Prosperity
When 1t Comes

Oakley has wonderful resources
CT soil, climate and people but is
little short on money. At any rate
that's the way we've figured 1T out
II we had a little more money to
work with, we'd soon be enjoying a
prosperity second to none in the
state.
There have been number of
plans for getting larger working
capital into our valley. Some of
the local land owners have made ap-
plication to the Pacific Coast Joint
Stock Land Bank for twenty year
lonas at six per cent interest. No
Ions have yet been made, although
representatives of the bank have
been in Oakley.
According to a letter received by
local parties from the secretary of
this bank, loans will be considered
on the basis of an appraisal of about
one hundred and one hundred and
twenty-five dollars an acre for the
land as soon as the farmers settle
the water question and form an irri-
cation district. No loans will be
made, so the letter states, until the
affairs of the farmers are satisfac-
torily settled and the indebtedness
against the land is definitely estab-
lished.
The wave of prosperity, which has
already flooded many parts of the
Cnited States, is going. to hit Idaho
sooner than most people think.
When it does come, we want to be
in shape to make the most of 1T. II
has been demonstrated that we can
raise big crops in this valley. Even
, crop of grasshoppers can be made
10 pay big dividends if the grasshop-
Ders are fed to turkeys. we hope
our farmers will be able to take full
advantage of the next era of pros
)erity.

Bill, Jack and myself Just return
ed from a most wonderful trip. We
had a real vacation this time. We
went last year and the year before
that; in fact, we have gone so many
times that it has become a habit
with us. We have decided that a
change of scenery occasionally is a
good thing for ones system. Who is
there that could stand on the top of
Mt. Independence, Mt. Harrison or
Monument peak, and behold the
wonderful views, without feeling
nearer to Him who created such
grandeur? Who is there who could
partake of those delicious meals
cooked in the big out-of-doors, with
out feeling that after all it is good
to be alive?
Did you ever take an early morn
ing tramp through the pines, along
the streams and over the bluffs, and
come back to camp with an appetite
like we'll, never mind, you
who have had the experience know
and you who haven't had the expert
ence never will know until you do
You don't feel like a person who is
famished or starving, but every
thing just naturally tastes better
than it ever did before.
Bill and Jack are strangers in
Oakley and when l wrote them what
wonderful places were near here
they came right over in Jacks old
whatomobile. When they got TO
our place, the old boat stopped with
a wheeze. Bill said: This old pile
OF junk will never get us home
again, much less to the mountains"

City Dads Decide That Weeds
Must Be Cleaned Up Along Streets

The City Dads in their meet
ing Tuesday night decided to
request the people of Oakley to
remove the weeds along the
streets IN front OF their proper
ty. The Village Marshall has
been instructed to notify par
ties who are delinquent in this
matter. 1t is thought that their
procrastination is due to care
lessness and that they will get
busy when notified by the off,
Ger. However, as it was point
ed out in Tuesdays session of
Oakley's legislature, our town
has ordinances covering the
subject of weeds; If any of the
people refuse to have the weds
removed, the Village can have
the work done and charge it
to those making the refusal.
While some of the residents
have never let the weeds get a
start, others have seemed un-
concerned about the matter. So
long as weeds grow along even
one lot, the attractiveness of
the town is seriously damaged.
The streets and the sidewalks
are for the use of everybody
and should be kept in such con-
dition that one will not get his
clothes covered with cockleburs
in passing by.

are to make the most of the outing,
yeu need not expect to return in
less than six days after setting out.

one.
Before starting out on the jour-

If you go horseback, the logical
route from Oakley to the City of

the old Almo wagon road across the
summit via Emery creek. Going
this way, the distance from Oakley
to the City of Rocks is about sew
enteen miles. A car can take the
Emery creek route, but the occa-
sional jumps-off are tremendous and
the grade is stiff.
