Jim Lockhart Keeps Farming as Oil Dreams Fail to Pay
Tola, Kan. December 10. Jim Lockhart, long on the county board and known as a solid citizen, still wears the same size hat and earns about $1,000 monthly. He refused $500 per acre for land, and despite oil prospects and wells on his property he continues to work the farm. He declined a higher offer, believing local affairs would suffer if he left the board, while neighbors debate his influence on county business and oil fortunes.
