Oil, tt (IAS COMPANY IXECT.
Tho nnnual meeting of tho
Harney Valley Oil & Gas Co., was
held In this city last Monday
ovening at tho ofllco of J. C. '
Turnoy.
Tho new tflllcors elected woro
J. C. Turnoy, president; R. D.
Post, vice-president and general
manager; Miss Joserl.lnoLochor,
secretary: Peter C lumens, treas
urer, and S. M. Talbot, superin
tendent
When soon by a representative
of this paper Mr. Turnoy stated
that tho company starts tho year
under most promising conditions
nnd hopo to accomplish much
work during tho season. Ho
states that tho company has
been promised sullicient funds to
build a pipe lino from this field
to Boise just as soomis it is de
monstrated wo havo commercial
gas. It is tho intention of thoso
in charge of tho work to begin
activo work as soon as proper
machinery can bo obtained.
Tho Times-Herald has suggest
ed such n move bofore. The
gas is most important and an
immediato commodity in which
local people are interested. Tho
development of commercial gns
would mean immediato rovenuo
to the comnnnv and a great boon
to the Harney country where
thousands of acres of fertile land
would bo made to produce in
creased yields by means of
water. With such cheap fuel as
gas this is not only possiblo but
practicable. It is very gratify
ing to note that tho company is
going to develop this gas, which
is undoubtedly hero.
People will watch with much
interest tho work of tho Harney
Valley Oil & Gas Co. They wish
to see our resources developed
'anjl feel that if wo can Bccure
gas it will mean rapid advance
ment along this lino. With suffi
cient funds for this promised tho
company should hasten to dem
onstrate what it has and thus
bring greater confidence to tho
undertaking and add valuable
assets to its holdings.
J. C. Turnoy, R. B. Post, S.
M. Talbot, II. M. Horton, Peter
demons, C. G. Frye, Dr. II.
Denmnn and W. II. Bradford
wero elected directors for the
year.

FIRST GLASS IN EVERY PARTICULAR
Voatr Patronage Solicited,
Tho Stag la one of tho latest and best additions to tho famous
Dcero Lino of Riding Plows. Is light in weight, simplo
nnd durable in construction full of genuine merit,' and has
shown its mettle and utility in every test it has been put to.
It has amply demonstrated by its cood work its right to bo
classed as n strictly up-to-date, high-class farm tool. It is
certain to suit tho most critical farmer and bo a money
maker nnd n labor-saver for him.
"If It's a Deere-Ifs Right 9
and docs its work perfect easo to the operator and team.
It i3 manufactured and sold ns a tongueless plow a tongue
not being necessary to best results, but ono is supplied at
slight cost to thoso who perfer it that way. The Stag is tho
simplest riding plow built, anyone who can hook up a team
and drive 'era straight can operate it successfully. It pos
sesses many superior features not found on other plows,
and it takes a wholo book to illustrate and discribe them.
Better write for it today and nil tho information you want
about thii superior implement.
