SALE OF LOTS ON TRACT NEW TEXAS SITE WILL BE RESUMED Casper home-lovers will be glad to hear that 80 acres of Jots adjoining the proposed Texas refin size, and ranging in price from on sale tomorrow by the See Ben Realty company. These lots are three and one-half miles from the Casper postoffice and are ‘situated in a locality that is capable of Patra arat: aati abe wend J etmost Imitless expansion. . Persons well equipped to know the situation, have estimated that in a comparatively short period they will be taken within the imits of the city of Casper and that the space between the present limits and the west end of he Indepen- den addition will be thronged with eitizens and beautified by their places ‘of residence. Work has been stasted at drilling a well to furnish fresh pure water to Duilders in the new addition This shoulg be ready for those who will re- quire it at an early date. ‘The Independent addition was first concetved when the Wyoming Refin- ery proposed to build on what fs to be the site of the Texas. fow lots were sold at that time, but nothing was done until an added value was given the property by the fact that an even greater plant than wns at first pro- is to be erected close to the of Casper. ‘Tho Bast Yellowstone highway is in splendid condition except in 2 very. few places. ‘This can be followed in reach- ing the refinery, and turning south ecross the Nosthwestern tracks, at which point the Independent addition is entered. It is interesting to note that the Northwestern railroad has granted the owners of the addifon a permanent crossing, so that no inconvenience need be experienced by dwellers, nor need any fear arise that the Indepen- dent addition will be shut off from Cas- per, Salesmen will be on the ground all day Sunday and st any time after 4 Pp. m.on week days, + are LES NOTICE AND CALL FOR BIDS.

Only throug’: infonaation received since then from various sources have they learned that the tvvo were tn the habit of working together here in ¢‘sper. They were arrested together in Cal ifornia, and as Shaw was at large at the time of the jail delivery and left town soon after, the county authori ties are only drawing the logical con clusion.

Butter, Butter Substitute, WASHINGTON, July 22—There is more water power development under way at the present time than at any previous period in the na- tion's history, the federal power commission reported in reviewing the results of its two years of a/- ministration under the water power act. In the last year, after the first flood of applications had come in, they aggregated six million horse- power of proposed installation. to June 30 last, the report said, the “mmission had authorized a total of sixty pretiminary or survey per- mits and 49 licenses, 18 of the latter for transmission lines, the permits involving an estimated installation Of 2,386,000 horsepower and the 31 licenses for power projects, 1,932,- 000 horsepower. Although it has been able to take final action on more than half of the applications for permits and licenses filed, the commission, the report said, has been forced to delay action on many important projects due to what was said to have proved to be a wholly inadequate personnel to handle the great amount of admin- istrative detail and supervision re- quired in the legislation. For this reason also, the report said, the. commission “has been forced to” omit altogether the per- formance of important duties, this being particularly true of valuations, of which, it was said, cases “in- volving approximately $100,000,000 — _. “WE PAY THE LOSS” Pelton & Hemry_ Insurance and Bonds A Up- are now awaiting action, Foer.ed by inability to complete valurtions, | to decide between suspendiag 1i- censes where valuations were in- volved or te provide for these in the future, the commission, tt is said, bad “taken ‘the latter course in order that much needed valuation might proceed.” “Such a course, however,” the commission said, ‘is almost certain to result in prolonged litigation and im expense many times greater than would have been required had the commission been given in the begin- ning the means for carrying out this HALLS FOR RENT For All Occ:s!

But he lost part of the joy of his smoke medi- tating on how “outrageous” it was to pay 7 cents to ride to his suburban home. “Bill” once saved that home from flames because he was able to quickly summon the fire department by telephone. On another occasion he got the doctor by telephone when a minute’s delay would have been fatal. But “Bill” registered indignation when his phone bill that month was 30 cents above the aver- age. “Bill” got to tinkering around and rigged up just a little personal home-brew plant that consumed more gas than “Bill” consumed of his product. But his kick to the Gas company; for the added service was as vigorous as the kick of his brew. “Bill” once figured up his month‘s expenses which included $8.50 for golf balls. He didn’t mind until he got to his light. bill, though {it was several dollars lower. That spoiled the day for him. Happily the Bills of this.type are growing fewer as the realization spreads that public utility service, as compared with the cost of other things, is exceedingly low.
