land No. 2 we'll In the Big Knot
field was shot Tuesday and proved
to be a record breaking gusher,
making the best we'll In the field by
great odds. Just after 1t was shot
1t started to flow at the rate of one
hundred barrels an hour and the
pressure was so great that the
weight of the tools would not carry
them down and 1t was some time
before things could be got in shape
to pack the we'll. By night the flow
had settled down to a steady flow OF
seventy FIVE barrels an hour.

territory recently drilled In is the
