The létter states in part: “No action will be taken looking to: the ganogliation of a permit issued under Section 13 of the oil and gas leasing act for failure to begin drill- ing operations within six months from date of the permit if. the permittee or His assignee exefcises “due dill- gence, and because of climatic condi- tions or other reasons beyond his con- trol, has been unable to begin actual driling within six months, “Every permittee or his assignee claiming under a permit issued under ction 13 of the oil and gas leasing act shall within 12 months and 10 days from the date of his permit, file in the local office of the district tn which the land is situated, a corrol- orated affidavit specifically deseribinz the work done upon the land embraced therein together with such other in- formation as may be pertinent as to his operations thereon.” In short, this ruling is to the of- fect that where a party or firm taketi a lease in good faith from the govern- ment and can show that an honest et- tort was made to comply with lease obligations, there will be no revoking of the lease contract on the part of the government for non-fulfillment of the coriditions relative to the starting of the drilling work by the end of the first six months.

Peniey, Natrona county agri- cultural agent, in a recent intervierv, says, “The dairy industry of this vic-| inity has a bright future. The keen | competition now evident, cannot coa- tinue long. No city in the state of Wyoming, has a greater demand for pure, fresh, clean milk than that of Casper. The prospects for the agri cultural development of this locality and the future of Casper as a city are encouraging. The prices of high grade dairy stock are such at pres- ent, that I consider it a very good time to buy.” He further states that Wisconsin has long been the leading dairy state of the union and in most cases there will be the place to buy. Also he men- tioned the fact that Earl \G. Reed, agricultural agent for the Burlington railroad in Colorado, Wyoming and New Mexico, who has assisted many farmers of the west in stock buyin.r, purehased 31 car loads in the stare of Wisconsin about March first. It was suggested that those inter- ested get in touch with Mr. Penley located on first floor in the Natrona county court house.
