OIL DRILLING IS
FORMALLY CLOSED

Formal abandonment notice for the
Mower Oil Well No. l, has been given
by the Mid-Colorado Oil Co., which
has been drilling on the Mower ranch
near Eckert since early in September
At a depth of a little over 1900 feet
gray granite was encountered, which
made further drilling impossible.
The casing of the test well was
then taken up and the rig has been
moved to Austin where it will prob
ably be started soon to another drill
ing location.
The failure to find oil in this test
well is a source of keen disappoint-
ment rot only to those who interested
the company in the possibilities here
and were instrumental in bringing the
testing rig in, but also to all the
farmers who leased their land to the
company and to the many residents
of the county who have been watch
ing progress with interest.
1t is hoped that another test well
will be sunk soon, and there is some
street talk of various proposed sites
for the test.

COLD WEATHER
IN DELTA COUNTY

Radiators on cars have been frozen
by the hundreds. The exact "casu-
atty list" from this cold snap will
never be known for several reasons:
First, many who were so foolish as
to let the calamity occur will not
tell it. Second, many are still letting
the radiators cry themselves to death
on the streets and roads. Third,
some are taking their work elsewhere
or are equipped to do it themselves,
while still others have drained their
cars, put the batteries to sleep in
the cellar and decided to "hoof it"
the rest of the winter
Joseph Meyer, the Radiator Hos
pital man, has been filled to ca
pacity and beyond Each day since
Christmas, he has repaired from ten
to fifteen radiators, and has been
compelled to turn away work until
the rush is over.
Much of the expense. inconven-
ience and labor could have been
avoided with a little care. For
instance, as in the case of pipes
freezing. People who warm their
homes by means of stoves will heap
the coal into the heating stove to
keep themselves comfortable, and
then shut the door to the kitchen
and bathroom where the sink, bath
tub and bowl need nursing along.
Why not shake down the kitchen
fire and invest about 10 Gents in a
hod of coal to keep that part of the
house warm? Saves lot OF trouble
and inconvenience, and then, when
you want to take a bath you can
have a hot one in a tub instead Of a
shower bath of freezing cold water
from a bursted water pipe or tank

Christmas exercises in the Olathe
Baptist, Methodist and Church of
God churches were interrupted by
the advent of six Klansmen in full
regalia, who entered each church and
presented an envelope to the pastor,
in each case the envelope containing
$25 and a note endorsing the work of
the churches and expressing the
pleasure of the Klansmen with it.
No sound was made by the six men
and the church was silenced by the
impressiveness of the visitors. Each
minister read the note to the con-

parted and made a talk suitable to
