started west, first going to sprague.
We found Sprague al astir over

From there we went to well No.
, and found that they had piped It
TO well No. 3, one fourth mile
away and were burning il in m en-
CINE for fuel. Well No. : was Just
brought in Saturday evening at a
depth OF over three hundred feet.
They had II connected with = pipe
and Il was burning some seven o.
eight feet high. II looked 10 Us
as though there was gas enough AZ
this well to light Rich Hill. AT
well No. 3 we found 3 great num-
Der OF people viewing the well.
The road between Rich Hill ard
the wells, was lined with people go
ing and coming. And we believe
that it will be but a short time until
Rich Hill will be lighted with nat
ural gas. The president of the gas
company, Mr.. Klumpp, was there
in the morning with an expert from
lola, to get the exact pressure, and
we understand hat bis report was
very satisfactory to the company.
We understand hat they are going
to keep drilling more wells. There
is no doubt but what we will have
gas enough in a short time to nun
all KINDS OF manufacturing plants,
and Rich Hill will be one Of the
busiest cities this side Of Kansas
City. Anyone seeing a gas
well burning, it would be well
worth their time TO 60 and see these
wells. Well No. IS located on
the Elgert Bros. farm. about half a
mile from well No. 5. to The south.
These wells are about four End a
half miles west OF Rich Hill, and if
we are any Judge OF formation. we
predict that the company is located
IN one OF the best places for both
oil and gas. These wells run from
BIS to 400 feet deep. d.
