day Is what the Bond Greek Oh and
Gas Company's we'll, Kelley No. 2

Bad luck seems to follow the et-
fort to get a test we'll down on the
Stab farm. After losing the tools
and abandoning the old we'll at a
depth OF 600 feet the rig was moved
and last week another hole was
started. Thursday night, when
they had got down $50 feet, the
we'll caved In and caught the tools
again. At last reports they were
tight and fast.
The we'll on the Goddard farm,
some two miles back of Sardis,
came In few days ago, and proved
to be a big gasser. The rock pres
sure Is from 400 to 500 pounds and
Its capacity Is estimated at 4 900, 900
cubic feet per day.
There has been nothing doing for
several weeks In the territory across
the river, opposite town, the COM
pany being busy looking after a
very promising field 1t Is Just open
