The Meadyille Republican says: We
learn that oil has been struck on the Humes
Farm, in WOodcock township, Crawford
county. In sand pumping two Or three
quarts of oil are brought up at each time
the pump is ''runned." Good oil operators
say that the indications are favorable Ior q
large yield, and there is great excitement
in the neishborhood in consequence 1t
has for several years been the opinion of
experienced oil men that tho Woodcock
valley contains valuable oil territory, and
this strike is regarded as confirmation Of
their predictions.
