Gas Again Struck
On Kennedy Ranch

With an improvished drilling rig
comprising a Fordson tractor, a derrick
and a drop bit E, Sisson and D. Smith
have been drilling for oil on the Kenne-

dy farm Sumas prairie and have so
far encountered a similar gas flow as
that struck by D. Kennedy when he
bored for water last fall. "The hole is
now capped at a depth of 550 feet and
the pressure of gas will project a flame
about 12 inches, It is not yet proven if
the gas is mineral or vegetable, but
tests are being made. The property is
leased by the drillers from Mr, Kenne-
dy and another hole is being started
with the intention of drilling 800 fect.

Wood’s orchestra will play for both
Friday and Saturday’s performances
in the Abbotsford tleatre when ‘Peter
Pan’? will be shown.
