four-inch pump is being installed to
increase the production.
The tools which were lost in No. 4,
the deep WELL have been recovered and
the force is now working to get out the
collapsed casing. This well, which is
a test hole going after deeper sands,
is 1850 feet deep.
The Traction property of the United

water, has resumed with daylight tow
ers, securing water from a shallow well
on the ground. Water was cemented
off at 1860 feet and the plug had just
been bored through when the work

may be expected in this hole within a
short time.

WORK TO START ON LARGE
RESERVOIRS AT SAN LUIS

SAN LUIS OBISPO, July 2.-Work
will start at once on two giant reser-

company on the land recently pur-
chased four miles west of this place.
The two tanks will be completed within
100 days. Others will follow as rapidly
as possible and construction will be
continued until the company has suffi-
cient storage for it's wants.
Each reservoir means an expenditure
of $4,000 Instead of being sunk be-

CROWN SHIPS ROTARY
DRILL To MARICOPA
Properties on Flat Near Buena
Vista Hills Teen with
Activity

The Crown Oil company shipped
from Los Angeles to Midway last Fri
day it's first rotary drilling equipment.
A second rotary has been ordered and
will follow. John H. Shelter, an eX-
pert operator of rotaries, who went to
the Midway fields about two years
ago from Texas, will be in charge of
the Crown Oil drilling operations on
section 30-32-25.
Superintendent Houk of the Crown Oil
company was in Los Angeles yester-
day, and reported that rotaries have
generally superseded the standard
drilling equipment in the Midway
gusher zone. The Honolulu is operat-
ing nineteen strings of tools in the
Buena Vista hills, most of which are
rotaries, and more are ordered. So
great is the demand for rotary equip
ments that they cannot be furnished
fast enough. The CroWn Oil already
has received an offer to purchase its
second rotary at a bonus.
Since the bringing in of the Con-
solidated Midway, Essex, Pacific Mid
way and other gushers east of the
LakevieW gusher, the prices of land in
that vicinity have gone up with a
jump. The Golden Gate company,
operating in the southeast quarter of
section 36-32-24, is reported to have
refused an offer of $2500 an acre for
it's property. 1t has well down 1000
feet.
Great interest attaches to the dis
covery of the Midway Northern, be-
tween the Pacific Midway and Cdown
Oil companies. This whole region is
being proved as light-oil territory,
which insures a high price and con-
stant market for the oil. no matter
whether there comes an oVerproduc-
tion of fuel oil or not.
So heavy is the demand for gasoline
and other distillates on this coast that
the refineries cannot get enough of
high h-gravity oil to supply the market.
The development now going on in the
Midway Maricopa flats at the foot of
the Buena Vista hills is likely to
provide plenty of dollar oil.

That those interested in mining ana
mining regions may form a correct gen
eral idea of the country comprising the
following mentioned districts tributary
to Ensenada, Lower California, 1t is
necessary to say that the folds of this
section extend north northwesterly to
south southeasterly. The higher ranges
are granite, the intervening country and
lower ranger being schist. The back
bone range of the peninsula is granite
and is naralleled on the southwest on a
line northeast from Ensenada by
schist belt five miles wide, which IN
cludes Jacalitos, Saragossa and part OF
Aqua Dulce, the remainder and Repup-
lica being in a spur of the backbone
granite. Then a lower granite range
three miles wide, followed by schtst
belt five miles across, including Real
del Castillo and the San Rafael valley.
This and the preceding schist belts JOIN
about six miles south of Pacalitos,
everything the lower granite just men
tioaal Next in order is another high
granite range about six miles wide, the
boundary of which is very ragged and
hard to determine, near the sea at En-
senada, and includes among many
others Los Cruces canyon, Santa Clara
and Alamo.
Including portions only of the back
bone range, all granite and schist are
cut by quartz, rhyolite, porphyry and
diabase in the order named, they being
the principal intrusives. In the ia
calitos and Real del Castillo at the
granite contacts there is considerable
slate.
The late mentioned granite range is
badly faulted and crushed. The Lodges
of Real del Castillo strike generally
northeast to southwest, dipping south
east. Those of Saragossa, Aqua Dulce
and Republica strike northwest to
southeast, dipping northeast, and those
of Jacalitor strike in all directions,
while the northwest combinations of
the lodges of the other three districts
have the same dip. These four join and
are ON the same ledge formation. Here

CASING COLLAPSEs

KERN RIVER, July 1.-The Kern
stars 8-inch casing has collapsed in
the well on section 13-27-27 and it will
be necessary to finish with the 6-inch.
The collapsing was due to the gas
pressure and occurred with 3j-pound
pipe. This well has been nearly year
i'm the drilling and the latest accident
will delay it's completion for consid-
cradle time longer
The operations on the Kern Star have
been watched with much interest, in
asmuch as it's location is on the north
west front of the Kern River field in
territory more or less condemned by
the work of former years. Whether or
not the well will turn out a profitable
producer is, of course, moot ques-
ton yet, but before the casing col
lapsed the well was bailed for two days
and oil was raised.

STIMULATES TRADING

BAKERSFIELD, July 2-The final
passage of the Pickett bill and the as
surance that it will be signed by the
president has stimulated trading in oil
lands. Operators know now which they
must operate and are again seeking oil
lands.
The present market conditions seem
to have no effect on investors, all being
of the one mind, that consumption
will again overtake production. One
representative of a Chicago brokerage
firm declares that nothing of a specu-
lative nature offers the certainty and
big returns of an investment in Cali
fOrna oil lands or stocks.
