Warm Letter
From Warner
To begin with, our fecond tertu of
school of one month's duration cloaed
on Friday, April fith, and as the "Itiint
ler" had it about three weeks ago, "it
must have bwu a successful term as
tbey rehired llie teauher (or a two
month term," all of which is a mistake.
The tirst term was S.Si niouthii, the lad,
just a month. There were 20 scholars
enrolled at the commencement of the
iall leroi, and at the close there were 3
pupils iu attendance. Yes, it was very
"aujceaaful." Witu our hali-bu i 1 1
school house, everything must be half
way, and until a change (or the better
take place we may not expect much
advancement in school work. Some
teachers have had (tetter success "teach
ing Sioux Indians and found them
brighter and more apt than our chil
dren." Anyone who would make that
remark should seek employment with
the "Sioux Indians."
On Friday, the 12ih inst., Miss Jen
nie Maxwell closed a very successful
term. In the evening of that day the
scholars, assisted by their teacher, gave
a school exhibition, which was a rare
treat, consisting of recitations, dialogues,
. singing, tableaux and drills.
farmers are all bu-y with theirspring
work. The recent cold and disagreeable
weather somew hat retards rapid prog
ress, however. Orass lias started on tiie
meadow, gardens are ready for plant
ing, and fruit trees are ready to burst
their bud all an indication thai spring
is upon ua.
There was a death among the Indians
at leep Creek on the 7lh, James .O.
Johnson's year-old baby succumbed to
what was thouglit to have been blood
poisoning, caused by a bruise on the
temple.
Like other localities, up to a week
ago, w e enjoi ed (?j a continuation ol
March weather, which caused some of
our ranchers, who had turned out their
cattle, to start out to rodeo them in,
and feed until there is no mistake about
spring weather.' Feed on the nioun- j
tains is well started, and with a lew i
real warm days cattle would do well;,
but as it is, it is very close picking for
stock that have to depend on it for an !
existence. Sheepmen aie starting their ,
(locks for the shearing -ns. Harold f
Miles and assistant, with the Melon '
naughy sheep are down from their ,
lolty position on top of the rim and are,
at the corrals at 15 Mile Creek. Lutej
Moss is following closely and will shear :
at the same corral.
It is understood that the Old Kight ;
Mile place is to be tilled up with cor-'
rals and accommodations for shee- '
shearing and w ill be in charge of Jake
Messner, Jr. The other hand thai;
hear in Goose Lake locality are travel- I
ing in that direction. Dave Edler has ;
his large bands on the road. ,
One poor unfortunate, unacquainted ;
witli the wild and desolate countrv, at
tempted to go to Dave Edler's camp, un
accompanied, two weeks. ago, for the pur
pose of taking charge of one of the bands,
it i- reported. Ailer getting out of
civi'ization a short distant e, he lost his
way and roamed and wandered about
three (lavs and two nights without bed
or (ool, with his only companion a poor j
old horse. When about to give up iu
despair he stumbled onto another camp!
where be found food and shelter. From
there he concluded to return to the
valley and go to Lakeyiew, to meet Ed
ler's bands later on, rather than hunt
them up on the desert, unaccompanied.

Where Oil is Found. I
I
How to diseover where oil really ex
ists may tie of norne iniiortrUii'e lo the
eoile of Lake county, a we exjieH;
any day to hear of devel...iiieiit work
being commenced somewhere in this
vicinity. Oil is found in sand, with!
randstone helow it and shale ahove it, ;
and with conglomerates of fossils on loi j
of the shale. When such a format ion j
cn..s out on the suriace there is a possi- .
hility of oil la-ing present at no great!
depth. If the ro -k when hroken has u
distinct odor of oil, the probability is in- ;
creased ; if oil is found iu spring, or as-'
phaltum is found ou thesurfa -e, then the
probability becomes almost a certainly. !
These are the indications that point to j
oil in the Buckeye district, and this
correctness has been verified by hund
reds of wells in other locations, when
' 1
sunk to a reasonable depth within the ;
line of surface indications, of the oil belt. '
Ashland w ill have a cannery, with a
capacity of 10,lam emm of fruit -r day.
The roads are txt'oii ing good again
