The material of the Shinbun is OF
the very best quality and shows the
work of people experienced in news
paper work. The editorials are to the
point, the stories bright and spicy, the
locals pithy statements of facts TO
carry in the mind and the personals OF
a nature attract the attention at once.
The "Doric Shinbun" people were very
anxious to have their matter printed

it was g 900. being under per 1000; a
reduction obtained by an almost pro-

THE PALMER OIL COMPANY.
A Brief Review of the Developments
made and the Prospective Work
of this Company.
lola, May 18th, 1896.

EDITOR REGISTER:
Responding 10 your request for
summary of the work done by the
company which L represent in this
field, would say:
The Palmer Oil and Gas Company
came to lola in June, 1894, and leased
5, 900 acres of land. Other tracts have
since been leased, until now the Com
pany holds something near $1,000
acres of land in the vicinity of lola.
The first we'll was drilled nine miles
northeast of lola, and was dry hole
in every respect, none of the oil or gas
bearing sands being found, although
the depth reached was 935 feet,
The second well was drilled in Oc-
tober, 1894, southeast of lola, just out
side the city limits. A strong volume
of gas was found in this well at
depth of $50 feet, the measured daily
output of the well being 7,0l4,000
cubit feet.
Well number three drilled in De-
cember, 1894, three miles southeast of
lola. 1t was drilled to depth of 1890
feet and resulted in salt water The
casing of this we'll and of number l,
was pulled and the holes plugged.
Well number four, at Neosho Falls,
was commenced in January, 1894, and
finished in April, 1885. 1t was drill
ed to a depth of 1874 feet, resulting
in salt water hole which was also
plugged after pulling the casing.
Well number five, just east of the
city limits, was drilled in June, 1895,
and proved to be a gas we'll of 5000, 900
cubic feet capacity, (measured). This
well was taken at cost by the late l..
l.. Northrup, under an agreement
with the Palmer Oil and Gas Com
pany, and is now owned by his heirs.
Well number six lies two miles
southwest of number two, and was
drilled in August, 1895, to depth of
635 feet, where traces ofoil were found
and gas to the extent of 1000, 900 cubic
feet daily. Gas to the amount of
about 1,000,0 900 cubic feet daily was
found in this well at depth of 500 feet,
but has since been drowned out by
the salt water.
Well number seven lies one mile
southeast of number two, and three
miles east of number six. and was
drilled in September, 1895, to depth
of $40 feet. Gas was found to the
amount (estimsted) of 100000 cubic
feet daily.
We'll number eight is two miles west
of lola, and was drilled to depth OF
1925 feet in October, 1885, The drill
passed through about 20 feet of oil
sand, and there was fair showing OF
oil.
Well number nine, a mile south
west of lola, was drilled 10 depth OF
1910 feet in November and December,
1895, but the tools becoming fast in
the hole the we'll had to be abandoned.
Well number ten is now going down
on the Remsberg place miles north
east of lola.
Five other locations have been select
ed and will be bored as rapidly as
possible.

l.. &. BEATTY.
