CASHION OAS WiELL NO MYTH.

George Miller brought !n the re-1
port Wednesday that while Jim
Sturgeon was drilling a well Tuesday
on one cf his (Miller*!) farms eight
miles northwest of Cashion, on the
;>lace known as the old J. Peckham
farm, a fire that they used near the*
well was the cause of three loud ex-
plosion*. They were drilling at a
dejvth of feet when this occurred.
Not knowing tho real cause for the
explosion, Mr. SturKOon stomped his
drill and began an investigation nnrf
withdrow the drill, tho rope <>n which
was torn and burned almost in two.
Touching a lighted match to the holo
it flashed into a flame readily. Thode 1
who were at tho well were greatly
surprised at the resuDt and w©r© soon 1
r.ware of the fact that they hart struck
a pocket of natural gas It la moi a 1
strong flow, but some young fellows
hearing the news in the neighbor-
hood. slipped over Tuesday evening
antf "touched it off" again It Hazed j
to a height of about twenty feet. G i3
is there and it is a welcome find.
When the report reached Cashion
several were Inclined to treat it as a
j«\ke, while others of "legs knowing
qualities" treated it as a possibility,
and have investigated the find.
The editor is Indebted to Mr. E. (3.
Allen for a drive out to the welt I
Wednesday afternoon, and we can '
verify Mr. Miller's statemnt. The
well was lighted1 in our presnce an J
burned to a height of several feet.
It was snrothered out by placing a
board over the hole. Natural gas is
there and it has the smell, too, not
in large quantity, but enough to
demonstrate its presence to skepticB.
The well was drilled to 75 feet. Leav-
ing this well, Mr. Sturgeon was drill-
ing about fifty yards north of it. Tho
gas well Is located on tho southwest |
corner of the old J. Peckham farm ■
and on the side of one of the highest i
ridges in the vicinity. That would
dispell all signs of vegetable gas. |
This is a very rough portion pf tho
country and the lay o'f the land is
very indicative of oil and gas under-
neath. It is within two miles south
of the Cimarrou river, and about a
milo north of Campbell creek, on the
G* B. McKoe road.
i8tate geologists have expressed
their opinion that there is oil and gas,
in this region, and any experienced j v';,l i
driller would undoubtedly pass thej'r"
same opinion.
Tho In<T&pendent nopes that there
will be a test well put down at this
place in the near future and see what
there is to be had. Wo have been
contending through these columns
the last year, no* Iby our own ex-
perience, .but by descriptions of the
lay of land as given us by the gen-
tleman who drilled the great Caney
gaB well, which leads us to believe
that there "Is oil and gas In the
Peckham neighborhood and all alorn;
tho Cinrarr'on river north of Cashion,
which may, if developed, Open up a i
field even greater than that neai
Cushing, in Payne county. Who can j
tell until it is tested? We are 'n the
center of hundreds of producing wells.
This shallow find on the Peckham
farm is undoubtedly a forerunner or
great oil and gas wells and should b
tried out. Let's get together and
create a second Cushing or Beau
mont. There have been other shal-
low finds which are now heinfc
developed into producing fields, the
latest of which is twelve miles north
of Watonga.
We must not be so slow, by sitting
down to wait for some outsider to
come in and start a test well. Wt
must get our iease3 ready and Invite
an oil rig to come in. All of us
must be directly interested in sucQ
an enterprise.
'Mr. Miller says he Intends to go as^
deep down in the gas well as the
small fig will drill it, and says^|
will have no trouble* in getting the]
money to do so Mr. Sturgeon's busi-
ness is to (frill wells and will do his
best to deliver the goods.
Several Cashion people drove out
today to investigate and brought
fcack favorable report. The Inde-
pendent will watch and report de-
velopments eaih week.—Cashion In-
dependent.

THE GARDEN AND THE MILL.
(Reprinted from the Holiday Sup-

Bulletin, December, 19,15.)
The Joyous lillies blithely smiled,
And cried, "Rehoid us, little child,
We neither spin nor toil,
Yet Solomon all glorious
Was not arrayed like one of us.
Brief children of the soil."
The little child wept bitter tears,
Her face was old but not with years.
Her body bent and thin.
"And I am clad in rags," she said,
And have no pleasures, scarce have
bread,
Though I both toil and spin."
O, gentle folk, with tender hearts
To feel for others' pains aud smarts,
Can ye endure this sin, ,
That children, who should be ns gay
And free as lilies, in their play,
Mast daily toil and spin?
