SPILLANE BACK
FROM VISIT TO IRELAND
Spends Summer at Old Home In
Ireland-But He's Says He
Likes Wyoming Best,

Father Spillane of the Powell
and Cody Catholic churches, spent
Monday in Cody, this being his
first trip here since his return from
Ireland last week, where he has
been since June 10th, visiting with
his parents. both of whoea reside
there and other relatives.
Father Spillane left Wyoming late
in May last. Sprirssg and arrived at
his old home, Killarney, County
Kerry, on June 18th. This was his
left Ireland on Sept. End. and his
trip back to Wyoming has been I
brisk one.
In discussing Ireland with the
Enterprise reporter. Father Spillane
stated that he found a very general
degree of prosperity there. Wages
were fairly good, and everyone
seemed to have considerable money
and were spending it too. Very
noticeable was the number of auto
mobiles in Ireland, with Henry
Ford's products going yer strong.
The cars sold there for approximate
ly the same price as here, gasoline
or petrol as they call it there sell
ing for what would be equivalent
to 36c per gallon American money.
However he stated that the fuel
used there in cars seemed to be of
a better grade, inasmuch as much
greater mileage was generally OBJ
tanned.
Weather conditions In ireland
have been very much the same as
in the States this summer. With
ordinarily much more rain than we
have here, this year 1t has been
decidedly wetter there, although
crop conditions are quite promising
as they are in the United States.
Father Spillane is becoming quite
an American, and although he en-
joyed his visit to the full with
friends and relatives there, he is
more than pleased to be back in
America and again with bite work
in Wyoming.

BILLINGS FAIR GOOD
BASIN EXHIBIT EXCELLENT

Those attending the Midland EN-
pire Fair at Billings last week re-
port splendid exhibits and a good
program, and most ideal weather
for the affair. Northern Wyoming
and Park county was well repre-
sented and every one was well pleas
ed with the treatment received in
the Montana city.
The agricultural exhibit of the
Big Horn Basin, including that of
Park county came in for strong
commentator and considerable pub
licity, and was a very fine showing.
Big Horn county had a fine show
ing of fruits, berries and melons,
and Park county took many blue
ribbons or its various displays.
Wyoming has every reason to be
very proud of the showing made
at the Montana fair.
County Agent Chisholm and John
Price took the Park county exhibit
to Billings. and were there for the
entire four days of the fair looking
after IT. =

MAKE STOP AT CODY

A Poultry Special is a project of
the Extension department which
will soon make a tour of the state,
and Cody has been named as n
of the points for making a stop.
according to County Agent CHS
holm, who brought the matter be-
fore the members of the Cody Club
on Monday. A special committee
was appointed to act with the reg
uIar agricultural committee of the
club and the county agents office
in an effort to secure for the poul-
try growers of this part of the
county, the greatest returns from
this project.
The special will consist OF sew
eral poultry cars of pure blood poul-
try and where stops are made a
regular school of instruction will
be given relative 10 the breeding
and caring for all kinds Of poultry.
The plan has proved itself a win
ner wherever 1t has been tried. and
those interested should cooperate

A contract for the Identification
of the Oregon Basin and other oil
fields of northern Wyoming, tenta-
lively granted to the newly incor-
porated organization, The Oil Fields
Power Company. was approved last
week by Secretary of the Interior
Hubert Work, according to a state
ment made by E.. e. Roddis, dis
trict counsel for the United States
reclamation service last week.
The Oil fields Power Company

at the present time practically all
of the equipment has been delivered
here and the line well under con-
struction. This morning a crew of
about fifteen men were started out
TO placing the CROSS arms and set

CORBETT BRIDGE AFIRE
QUICK WORK SAVES IT

The people of Cody were startled
on Monday afternoon by the tele-
phone communication from Lower
Sage creek that the Corbett bridge
was on fire. and that 1t looked very
improbable that 1t could be saved.
A few businessmen went to the
scene of the conflagration only to
find the fire out. by the efforts of
those passing by.
According to Mrs. v. r. Rotter.
who lives just across the river to
the south of the Shoshone. the fire
was first discovered by a Mrs. Joyce
who with a lady friend were en-
route from Thermopolis to Elk Ba-
sin. Coming down the hill they
discovered the blaze and did what
little they might to stamp 1t out,
soon realizing hat their efforts
We're to be of no use. Mrs. Joyce
then drove to the Rotter home
where a telephone call was sent to
nearby ranchers on Sage creek. and
a mechanic of the Ford Service
station who happened to be nearby
and Maloney of the Highway DEPART
ment reached the scene and with
a small: gallon bucket and some
frantic work finally subdued the
flames.
Very little damage was done the
structure although the fire had a
splendid start on the beams and
under the floor of the bridge, all
OF which is of wood The fire evil
IDENTIFY had been started by the
careless disposal OF a lighted Gig
arctic into some hay which had
brushed from a load to the floor
II the bridge.

PERSONS ELEVATOR SOLD
TO A NEBRASKA MAN


A. D. Persons of Cheyenne and
]. r. Olson. of Lisco, Nebr., were
in Cody today, and while here
completed a sale by which the lat
ter becomes the owner of the elevat-
or property at the station formerly
owned by Mr.. Persons. Mr.. Olson
is an experienced mill and elevator
man and will probably come to Cody
in the near future to make his
home.
Mr.. Persons, who at one time
had string of elevators in the
Big Horn basin, is disposing of
his interests in this part of the state
owing to his inability to give to
them the personal attention which
is necessary to insure their success.
Last fall he sold his property at
Powell, and with the sale of the
Cody elevator. only has the n
left which is located at Lowell.
Messrs. Person and Olson, ac-
companied by two other Nebraska
men, were here by motor, and left
