WONDAY, OCTUBER I5, T9z3 il : Finance Wells Shut Down in Big Muddy By Texas On the Crary tract tn Big Muddy fie'd all Texas wells with the excep- tion of two are shutdown. These, No. 21 and No. 31, are being cleaned out. In the Moneta district on the Dut- ton anticline, the company !s clean- ’ ing out an old gas wel] which was drilled originally to 1,050 feet but caved in later. When the Texas took this property over it started UTAH DEVELOPMENT | MAKING PROGRESS More than ordinary activity is being displayed in ol! exploration work in the state of Utah. Fol- lowing is given a resume of opera- tions as being carried on at present on the various prospective oll struc- tures. Drilling in the various Utah oil fields has been progressing during the past week with the feeling of en. encouragement accompanying the operations of most of the companies. Considerable activity is being man- ifested in the Green river section, southeastern Utah. Here the as Oil company is preparing for ex tensive development work, and ac- cording to latest information actual drilling wil! commence shortly by the Texas Company. The Farnham and Woodside tests Deing made by the Utah Ol! Refin- ingLcompany are attracting a great deal of attention. At Farnham it fs understood that the under-ream- ing and setting of 8%-In. casing is complete preparatory to bringing up the lost tools, It is understood that the hole is within 100 feet or less of the objective, and much spec- ulation is going on in business cir cles on the outcome of this test. At ‘Woodside, drilling operations are without a hitch accord- ing to latest information. The hole is approximately 1,200 feet and it is understood that the company ts lowering 12%-In. casing to shut off the water that depth. to redrill this well and is now down 607 feet in the old hole. Gas ob) talned from this well will be used as fuel in drilling other tests of the anticline, From Lost Soldier it 1s reported that the Texas’ Sweetwater No. 1, section 3-26-90, is drilling at feet. Werts No. 1 is coming at 1,- 955 feet. Good No. 2 is at a total) depth of 1,895 feet, and underream- ing ten-inch casing 1,874 feet, Operations at the Gustaveson Ol! wells in Diamond Fork canyon are reported on as progressing. During the past week the driller succeeded in cleaning out over 80 feet of fill and reached the tools. It ts un- derstood the “fishing” job is pro: greseing favorably. According to report the Gustaveson Ol] company has procured a substantial holding at Woodside on the structure being drilled by the Utah Oil Refining Co. | The Survey ia unable to procure the details of the deal, but it is under stood that the land comes under the dry hole agreement had with the Utah Ol! Refining company. Operations near Coalville by the ‘Western Empire company and the Ohio Ol] company are being contin: ued. The latter test, it is under- stood, is having some “fishing troubles,” which however, may he overcome shortly. The Crescent Eagle well continues eceording to reports, in @ good showing of oll and gas. Drilling is very hard, and slaw progress is being made, but as depth is attained, it is un: derstoed the formations are soften: ing up. Oi! men consider this seo tion, near Thompson. a proven oi! section. Operations tn the Dixie and San Juan sections of the state are re- ported to be progressing favorably with the lklihood of an oll excite ment in efther of the sections named any time. MRS. STOKES CALMEST PERSON N SENSATIONAL DIVORCE TRIAL NEW YORK, Oct. 15—-The spot- Ught of the world's sensational in- terest is centered today on one red haired, determined woman-—Mra, Helen Elwood Stokes, who having won one of the most contested divorce cases of the decade, faces a second trial because of a technical error in court procedure, She must refute 49 charges of misconduct brought up by her hus- band, the elderly millionatre. She faces an army of recruits from all parts of the country, each |. Every act and deed of her life ts | to be alfred and spread out for a } anaes second time before a sensation-lov. ing world, And yet, like William Tell, this little Titlan-haired woman, who is 36 and would pasa for 40 years younger, seta her mouth fn a firm line, squares her shoulders, looks her accusers in the face and says to them—"Shoot. ‘Toe get into the courtroom each day she has to pase through cor riders lined with eager, curious eyes of those willing to stand around half a day just to get a glimpse of her. But if she were passing through a drawing reom fijled with friends, she could not be more calm or gracious, She takes her seat at the table, opposite her accusers as if she were sitting down to a hand of bridge, or waiting for a cup of tea, “And while the lawyers get excited and the judge calls order, while Stokes himself confers with his lawyers or gets up for a stroll in the corridors, while the witnesses get muddled in their testimony and the reporters take busy notes, she main: tains the most impersonal interest and the most stoical calm. She is the one person at the trial who 1s composed and apparently under no nervous strain, She smiles frequently, and never during a whole day did I see a look of scorn or anger, no matter what was he- ing brought up against her. ayes | Bi tks thousands of letters recommending the use of 8. 8. 8. the great blood purifier and sys- «tem builder—all telling how 8. 8.S. {restores the state of well being by fcreating red blood cells are re- uceived daily by the manufacturers fot 5.8.8. _..

Notice of Canadian wheat ar- riving in Minneapolis counted as a bearish factor. Weakness of corn was also a depressing influence on wheat values. The opening, which varied from unchanged figures to %@%ec lower, with December 1.08 to 1.08% and May 1.12% to 1.12%, was followed by a moderate setback all around. Favorable weather and progre: of husking made the corn market decline. After opening unchanged to le lower, December .75%to .75%c, prices underwent @ general sag. Oats were easier with corn, start: ing unchanged to %o off, December 43 to .43%c, and later showing slight further losses. Steadiness of hog values helped to sustain the provision market.

WASHINGTON, Oct, 15.—(United Press)—The American farmer today is the bane and at the same time the hope of all the politicians on Capital Hi. Congress this winter will afford the spectacles of every group in Congress trying to convinoe the far mer that that special group con tains his only friends and his hope for future welfare. A great lot of bunk wil be peddled to the farmer {n this connection. No matter what ts done by the Coolidge Adminstration before the regular Congressional session meets —whether it be relief at an extra session, increase in the tariff on wheat by Presidental mandate, reduction of freight rate by the In- terstate Commerce Commission—the agriculturist and his problem will be right in the front row when Con gress gets together. Congress has been fussing about this farm problem for a long time. It revived the War Finance Corpora- tlon, passed the Capper credits law, the co-operative marketing law, the packers’ control law, and some others, all ostensibly in the farmer's behalf, and still the problem ts un- solver. The odds are 10,000 to 1 that it will remain unsolved when Con- sress meets and also when it ad- jJourns next summer, Problem Made Political The princtpal reason for this is that Congress will try to solve the Problem politically rather than economically. It is exceedingly doubtful that Congress can do more for the farmer than subsidize him in some way or palllate his woes. The farmers’ trouble {s economic and no amount of legislation can sive him markets in Europe. Another reason for the certainty Muscle Shoals is one element of the farm problem that will show how politics affects Congressional Judgments, At Muscle Shoals lie Possibilities of the production of great quantities of fertilizer that would make American agriculture ndependent of Chilean nitrates. But because there {s a strong belief that Henry Ford wants to climb to the Prestdency via Muscle Shoals (t le impossible to get a fair consldera- tion in Congress on the Muscle Shoals question, This ts quite apart from whether Ford gets {t or not. The point is that the whole question has been muddled by politics, A re- duction of hundreds of thousands, if net millions, of dollars yearly in the sum pald for fertilizer by the far- mers might be accomplished by an Intelligent and speedy decision to put Musele Shoals to work, Maybe it will be settled this time; but if it is it probably will leave political bitternesses In its wake which will be reflected in and out of Congress for a long time to come.

These are the raifroads that carry farm products almost exclusively, or that depend on them for their profits.
