81. s. = q OF THE On FIELDs.-Ina
recent issue of the San Francisco
Chronicle special correspondent,
who is investigating the develop
:ment.in the various oil districts Of
California. has an interesting arti.
Gle on the new Kern river field. Two
years ago this district was practi-
cally barren and neglected waste.
1t furnished meager pasturage for
sheep during small part of the
year, but was unattractive and un-
inviting to any one until an exper-
fenced Pennsylvania oilniner Wis
tied 1T. His trained eye and intelli-
gence detected the petroleum indi-
cations in the district, and he pro-
ceeded to prospect for the precious
fluid. The discovery which he made
at a comparatively small depth rev.
olutioned the status of the district
and awakened new ideas concern
ing the mineral resources of Cali
fornia.
JUMP IN LAND PRICES.
LAND which the Southern Pacific
company and the federal govern
ment were glad enough to part with
at $1.25 and $3.50 per acre became
suddenly immensely valuable when
1t was known that in the underlying
qualification was a reservoir of De-
troleum of untold area and depth,
and productive wells were opened
yielding daily from % to 800 barrels
per day. Now the land which was
gladly disposed of two years ago by
the then owners at $3.50 per acre, is
selling at from $500 to 5000 per acre
while within an area five miles in
length and three in breadth 24O
wells are drawing crude petroleum
from the oil-bearing sands from so
to 400 feet in thickness, which lie at
an average depth of 800 feet below
the surface. Still the actual extent
of the field is unknown. Systematic
prospecting is steadily charging
the area, and the unexplored terri
tory is as promising as that which
is already yielding."
Fortunes have been made in the
past year or two in California and
in the past four months in Texas by
the investment of few dollars, and
