Killeen, Tex., June 21 .—Drilling re-
ports for the past ten days In the
Killeen field Show that the summer
drilling campaign is getting under
ewing. With good weather and most
of the companies stocked up with
ilenty of material, such as casing,
extra parts, fishing tools, etc., it Is
th^ .manimous prediction that the
fiehl will either be proven or dis-
proven sometime during the summer
or early fall months.
Cold business methods have taken
the place of haphaiard gambling in
the operations here, consequently all
of the wells promise to be actual
tests.
Thousands of acres, hitherto out of
the "big play'1 have been opened up
for the edification of the lease hound
and big speculator. This new terri-
tory lies north of what has been the
most active part of the field and of-
fers a shot at five new wells, same
being the Kolls well Just recently
Btarted, the Nolan-Bell, now drilling,
the K. C. test, the new test contracted
for by the stockyards interests of
Chicago and the test of the Long
Ridge Oil company.
The Kolls well on the eastern end
of the new play is drilling at approxi-
mately 600 feet; since the spudding In
of this well, residents of Belton are
recalling to mind the fact that the
Texas producers company drilled a
■well on this lease many years ago.
getting a good oil sand somewhere
around 1,000 feet; salt water later
ruined the well which was of the
deep test variety. At that time any-
thing short of a gushor was not good
. pay on account of the price of oil and
the Texas Producers never tested the
ehallow sand. The B-W Oil & Re-
fining company, which is sinking the
Kolls well on the same lease, will test
the shallow sand before going further
and expectancy is running high.
West and slightly south of the Kolls
test the Nolan-Bell forms a corner
of the new play. The well is sus-
pended at approximately 850 feet
waiting for 12-inch underreamer.
The promoters of this well hav% buck-
ed a continual string of hard luck,
having abandoned the first hole on
account of various troubles, but No.
2 IS looking good with the hole in
good shape. Twelve and a half inch
casing has been set to approximately
740 feet, and as soon as underreamer
arrives the 121-inch hole will be car-
ried down to the present depth.
Two miles north of the Nolan-Bell
la the Blashkl No. 1, location of the
' Long Ridge Oil company. The for-
mation Is said to be unusually at-
tractive here, with a very pronounced
exposed structure. The location was
made by D. J. Lynch.
A few miles north and west of the
Nolan-Bell and Long Ridge is the
♦ Kansas City company's test, now
down 2,611 feet. A new contract has
been signed for an additional 1,000
feet and work will be resumed as
eoon as contractors finish with anoth-
er well.
The Chicago Interests have several
thousand acres Joining the Kansas
City holdings under contract and are
reported to have material on the way.
South of town In the better known
part of the field many of the wells
have had showings and the Mellon
and Eclipse are being closely watched.
The Mellon is temporarily shut
down at 1,180 feet; Jars were broken
last week and drillers are waitfng on
new ones now on the way This test
has had several minor showings of in-
terest and drillers are of the opinion
that when the hard shale is punc-
tured that gas will be encountered.
The Eclipse is reported to be In the
black lime again, but the report can-
not be copfirmed. At last report the
well was approximately 900 feet, so
the supposition is credited as the
Eclipse No. 1 got the black lime a
few feet under the 1,000 foot mark.
The Hartman well southeast of
here Is reported to have a good show-
ing at 1,000 feet. TtU* test has made
unusually good time and in view of
the fact that a 1,500-foot sand Is ex-
pected In that territory, the well is
attracting some attention.
The Warrick No. 2 is drilling at
900 feet and report some showings.
This well Is only a few hundred yards
south of the Hartman test and both
will test the productive powers of the
1,500-foot sand.
The Bell county well on Dog Kidge
Is reported to be 1,280 feet. Drilling
ts slow on this test on account of the
hard formution. but the hole being
put down as fast as possible.
General Gorgas Is Improving.
London, June 21.—Tne condition of
Major-General William G. Gorgas,
former surgeon-general of the United
States arniy, who has been critically
ill here, was satisfactory to his pliysi
clans this morning, it was announced
by Brig.-Gen. Robert E. Noble, t'. 8.
A; of General Gorgas' party. General
Gorgas appeared to be "on the mend,"
General Noble said, but his condition
was considered still serious.

<
bleating of timid sheep and the louder
haa-ing of bewhlskered goats—the
vanguard of 1,500 animals that will
be exhibited here this week—are the
not unfamiliar sounds that are being
heard in San Angelo as plans mater-
ialize for the fifth annual convention
of the Sheep and Goat Kaisers' Asso-
ciation of Texas.
The convention, and what promises
to be the largest sheep and goat show
and auction sale ever held in Texas,
opens here Tuesday morning. After
the streets resound with band music,
Alex Collins, prominent local attor-
ney, will at 10 o'clock step before the
audience in the district court room
at the court house and officially wel-
come the visitors on behalf of the
city. J. B. Moore of Del Rio, pres-
ident of the association, will respond
and will then delve into his annual
address.
Several hundred sheep and goats
had arrived In San Angelo Saturday
afternoon and everything was in read-
iness to receive them at Fort Concho
baseball park, where the show and
sale will be held. Forty tents were
stretched and stalls were bedded
down with hay. The auction sales
will start promptly at 1 o'clock each
afternoon and will continue until 5
p. m. Sessions of the convention will
likely be held only in the morning in
order to afford everyone an oppor-
tunity to see the sheep and goats and
participate in their sale.
Flags and bunting appeared on
buildings In the business district Sat-
urday and the Queen of the Ponchos
Is assuming Its holiday dress for the
reception of those who are engaged
in an industry, which has been largely
responsible for the present great de-
velopment of western Texas and is to-
day one of the cornerstones in the
prosperity of San Angelo and its trib-
utary territory. Hotels are already
filling up and a crowd of at least 3,-
000 people is anticipated. The in-
formation bureau In the lobby of the
St. Angelus Hotel had on Saturday
listed accommodations for 150 people
in over forty homes.
President J. B. Moore and Secretary
E. E. Stricklen of Juno arrived here.
Saturday to prepare for a meeting of
the executive committee to be held
at the court house at 10 o'clock Mon-
day morning.
A request that the live stock sani-
tary commission of Texas prescribe
two or more dips for sheep Infected
with scabies will be one of the several
Important actions taken by the con-
vention, according to an opinion ex-
pressed Saturday by President Moore.
Expected action by the association to
secure further appropriations for the
eradication of scabies, blow flies, screw
worms and predatory animals and
the speedy establishment at Texas A.
& M. College of a wool and mohair
scouring plant, with the addition to
the curriculum of a course In wool
and mohair grading and classification,
are matters that will not be decided
until the sessions begin, Mr. Moore
indicated.
It is almost certain that the sheep
and goat men will discuss at length
the lack at present of a wool and mo-
hair market, due to the failure of
eastern commission houses to make
bids on the 1920 spring production;
and measures looking to the Improve-
ment of the situation may be expected.
Chicago financiers have just held a
meeting for the purpose of making
their city the wool marketing center
of the Unltqj States, supplanting Bos-
ton, and some relief may come from
this part of the. country.
President Moore reported Saturday
that the Del Rio Wrool & Mohair Co.,
of which he is the president, last week
disposed of 140,000 pounds of eight
months' wool at 55c a pound. Indicat-
ing, he said, that the market in Texas
has not slumped from twelve to twen-
ty cents, as recently reported.
While the executive committee of
the Sheep and Goat Raisers' Associ-
ation was in session Monday morn-
ing. the members of the American An-
gora Goat Breeders' association were
to hold a meeting at the St. Angelus
Hotel, beginning at 9 o'clock. Pres-
ident Robert Davis and Secretary C.
E. DeGroff, both of Reeds Spring!,.
Mo., have called this session. Both
are expetcted to arrive in San Angelo
Sunday.
Dwight Lincoln of Marysville, Ohio,
appeared on the scene Saturday. He
is to auction the sheep and goats on
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday
afternoons.
Sheep at the show and sale are ex-
pected to number 1,000 and goats
over 600. The auction lists for the
catalogue were turned over to the
printer Saturday and will be circu-
lated early in the week. Premiums
offered by the association and San An-
gelo will aggregate 11,500, while spe-
cial prizes will bring the amount to
$),900 or $2,000.
The National Rambouillet associa-
tion is offering $300, which sum has
been duplicated by the association.
Other organizations also are offering
Special premiums. Basel M. Halbert
of San Angi lo, a former president of
the association, intends to offer $500
for the champion goat.
Among the entertainment features
during the convention will be a free
dance Tuesday night at the Elks' club,
a reception by San Angelo women to
the wives and daughters of the visitors
on Wednesday afternoon from 4 to 6
o'clock at the Elks" club and a fre-?
ball Thursday night it the Angelu»
Hotel. An automobile ride will also
likely be arranged for one day during
the convention.
! fare on violators of the Volstead na-
tionwide prohibition act netted its
first victims here Saturday when rev-
enue officers from El Paso arrested
William A. Manles, local stockman,
and Carl Lady, a garage employe, on
complaints charging the transporting
and sale of whiskey. A quart of
liquor was seized and the automobile
in which it wag found was confiscated.
Lady pleaded guilty before United
States Commissioner Jesse T. Couch
and was released under a bond of
$500. Manles waved examining trial
and was granted bail in the sum of
$1,500. which he failed to furnish.
Both cases will be presented to the
federal grand Jury when United State*
court convenes here on Oct. 18.
"We have come to San Angelo to
make a 'clean up' and stamp out boot-
legging for good," asserted one of
the government agents Saturday.
"Selling liquor is now a direct vio-
lation of the constitution of the United
States and the man who does so is at-
tempting to tear down the govern-
ment." _
