these fields was commenced In 1859,

runs Of this company with the average
runs of the Mellon Pipe Line Co. from
this field run the weekly production for
this week up TO 199, 0lO barrels, which
is an average OF about 1900 barrels n
day. This is az increase, and is above
any weekly average made during the
months OF November and December,
