TEXAS DRILLERS ARE “OIL POOR" ; Austin. Tex.. April 1 — \U.R> —[ The envious, perhaps even covet-1 ous, way you regarded old acquaintances who struck oil a few years ago would no longer lie justified. Bringing in an oil was is the thing oil operators now are trying to avoid. They are "oil poor.” Some of the worries of the oil man outlined at a week's hearing before the ’Texas Railroad comrnisslcn in an effort to get a rigid limit on production are: i If you own oil land, drill a well and produce the oil, there Is noprofitable market for it. Cost of lifting the oil in some fields was; put above the price received. , If you store it, the oil deterior-i ates. The most valuable part is the meat volatile. It disappears first leaving stale oil. If you do not drill or operate your well when drilled, the man owning adjoining property will drain out the oil from under your property. He can do so in Texas lawfully if his well is not within 150 feet of ths property line. >I If he doesn't take the cf] out | from under your property, he does' [take the gas. Without the gas there J iis nothing left to force the oil to the surface. Besides, with the gas gone, water seeps in and takes the - ! field. Other oil facts adduced were: In a typical field like the new East - Texas field, it costs $35,000 to inj | stall properly equipped, well. >1 Natural gas worth three to four ■ cents a thousand cubic feet after [ It has lifted the ell to the surface
I sells for 65 cents a thousand cubic j I feet in cities a few hundred miles; i away. Pipe line cost is given as < the reason for the increase. o : Second Holdup Succeeded Phoenix, Ariz., April 14.— (U.R> —| J. J. Rymer, dairy truck driver, was i [ rolling along congratulating him-1 self because he stepped on the gas! the previous morning and thereby, avoided two bandits. Making a stop for a delivery he was confronted by the same two holdup men who, i robbed him of sl2. 0 Beef Cattle Still Leads Phoeniz. Ariz.. April 14.—<(J.R> — ( !Although diversity is general now.! [the raising of beef cattle, once the[ ; backbone of Arizona’s agriculture, is still important judging from re-! ports of the state livestock sani-| tary board which shows that 225,-1 [139 cattle were shipped from the | [state and 72,505 slaughtered in the I i state during 1930. o Auto and Furniture Stolen Reno, Nev., April 14.— (U.R) —A| kind heart and a lack of knowledge; of automobile repairing cost 11. T.' Humbly, not only his car but ills! household furnishings as well. Two men offered to repair his car while, [ he was at work. When lie returned [ I home, he discovered the man had , loaded his home furniture in tile, . ant; mobile and departed for parts’ , i unknown. . [ ■_ o Women’s Work Week Down Washington, Aj>r. 14.—(U.R)* —The i average work week for industrial women in Hie south during Hie past' two years has been 58.5 hours, ac-! [cording to the Women's Bureau of [file Department of Labor. This • [condition, however, tfie bureau says, i ’ shows a marked dtyirease over the
I working hours of women in the pre-[ [ceding biennial periods and most of I [the states have laws pending which .will reduce the time of work for i women to a 55-hour week maximum ’and prohibit night work for women and children. o_ Novice Beats Teacher Jerinone, Ariz., April 14.—(U.R>—• j There is such a thing as being too good a teacher, according to Gray Madison, Verde Valley Golf club ! pro. who was beaten by a novice after Madison had given him three [ lessons.
