Santa Maria Sales

Wealthy Los Angeles and San Fran
cisco men have just purchased the 40
acres comprising the southwest quar-
ter of the northeast quarter of section
%, known rs the ]. Heath property.
This land lies north of the Los Flores
holdings and is surrounded on the
west. north and east by the holdings of
the Ideal oil company. A company is
to be formed to operate the property
and it is expected that one well, and
possibly two, will be drilling within the
next three or four months. The names
of the purchasers can not be made pub
lie at this time, but A. Mcneil, presi-
dent of the First national bank of
Santa Maria, is acting as trustee for
the purchasers. The property has been
held for $4,000, but we understand the
price paid was somewhat less than
this figure.
The Pinal oil company has acquired
the $40 acre tract in the south half of
section IL, known as the j. NJ HUT
property. This lies north OF the prop
erty recently acquired by the Palmer
annex oil company in section IA. ana
also adjoins the property of the Summit
oil company, drilling upon which is
about to begin. 1t is understood that
negotiations are also pending for the

THE OIL WELLS
February Price 44.4 Gents

The statement covering the business
of the Independent Producers Agen-
cies for the month of February, the
first month their oil has been sold I'M
company, shows net price to members
of only 444 cents per barrel at the well.
This is the figure remaining after de-
Quoting the arbitrary transportation
charge from valley points of 22R cents
and the q cent agency fee. This report
viii result in much disappointment in
some quarters, but the agency mem
bers understood the conditions and
however, was not expected to be quite
as low as 1t proved to be.
In explanation, w. B. Robb, secre-
tary of the Independent Oil Producers
price for the month of February is due
to the low prices received for oil de-
livered on old contracts of the Union
oil company and the figures do not
represent the present market price of
oil. In order to arrive at an approx
mate return that would accrue to
agency members on the present market
price, average figures for various points
were taken and these show that the
return would be about so cents per
net price for Portland shipments would
be 5S cents fer San Francisco 60 cents,
for Sacramento 63 cents, for San Diego
Il cents, for Oakland so cents, for Sc
attic so cents. etc.
Fortunately. most of the old low
priced contracts viii expire during the
current year, so that the independent
producers will probably receive higher
expire and are replaced with contracts
at the prevailing market price. The
net proceeds of sales for the month
were shared in by the agency members
