Says the Santa Barbara (Cal.) Press: “The most fabulous stories of oil- springs and creeks cannot equal the actual truth as witnessed in \ entura County.

Oil springs in the Sissa Canyon, on the head waters of the Santa Paula, are the rule and not the exception. Thousands of barrels of crude o1l run to waste every day along these two mountain streams. - The Hen vs. Science.

This kind of cattle | weigh anywhere from 1,000 to 1,200 pounds; for the most part they coarse boned and ill-shaped; have failed to get fat on grass; are not at all desirable for feeders or stockers; won't pay to put on distillery feed; the butchers don’t want them, as con- sumers don’t want their meat after they are siaughtered. Large pens full of such cattle are now to be scen in the stock yards, and a leading com- mission man told us, this morning, that it was alinost impossible to get an offer on cattle of this kind, as no- body wants them or can find any place for them; but it is likely that cattle to this kind will continue to crowd the market during the remainder of the present year, as this condition has Iwun general rule thiough the cor: ponding portion of every . \ hile f at, well-turned cattle, averay ing 1,600 to 1,550 pounds, sell veadily | 5 30@ G 50, it is a hard matter to sell these ha f fat, pony steersut $4 25 L.
