ANOTHER STRONG STRIKE
OF LUBRICATING o

Another strong flow of oil has been
found in the vicinity of Roswell. This
time it is on the old NIilhiser place,
21a miles southwest of the court
Robt c. Cook of Chicago. Five or six
years ago Mr.. Milhiser drilled a well
on his place to depth of IT'S feet
and put IN pumping plant that car
ried only a small part of the flow of
water. Recently Mr.. Cook installed a
bigger plant that throws a big stream
of water. Since the strong pump was
put in oil has SHOWN up strong, so
strong, in fact, for the past three days
that the orchardist in charge has de
cided that if it is put around the
fruit trees it will kill them.
The value of the strike is principal
" in its indications The oil itself is
of a very heavy quality and would
make a good Iubricating fluid as it
now comes from the well. Isaac Gan
field, who has located the site for the
prospect well west of town, out the
Second street road, states that if the
Cook well will produce 20 barrels of
oil per day, as he believes it will,
we'll out the Second street road, two
miles from the Cook well, will run
500 barrels a day.
