OIL FIELD IS NOW AT SHAMROCK Dog Canyon and Camp City First; Now the Dish Name Is Used In the beginning it was just plain Dog Canyon. D-o-g C-a-n-y-o-n That -was when it was but a wide place iu the road. Then, after awhile Camp City was the handle they gave it and the postoffice department called it Camp without the city part.. It sound ed great but was a bit disappointing when a glimpse" was obtained of the place which was neither a camp nor a city. ' Now it is Shamrock. Just why no one has yet been able to fully explain. Hut Shamrock it is according to the U. S. postoffice department, and Shamrock it will stay unless It is changed. The new name of the little town promises to deprive El Paso of a number of Its future citizens. No man of Irish blood will ever be able to get past a to-wn wjth that name even if he is on his way to El Paso. Dog Canyon, alias Camp City, alias Shamrock, is located 76 and two-tenths miles east of El Paso In the almost sov ereign state of New Mexico.
