In the Mines and Oil Fields
CONSOLIDATED MIDWAY
GETS A GUSHER NEAR
THE FAMOUS LAKE VIEW

1t is reported from Bakersfield that
the Consolidated Midway on section 80,
1928, Sunset fiat, has brought in
gusher. This well is one mile east of
the Lake View.
About two weeks ago heavy gas
blowout occurred. In anticipation OF the
rusher the company constructed several
large reservoirs and is now prepared to
handle the production, 1t is said.
A feature of the well is the second
sand was entered at exactly the same
depth as the second sand in the Lake
View. No estimate of the flow of the
lgusher has yet been made.

OBISPO GUSHER FLOWS
$4,000 BARRELS DAILY
Success of Well Proves Territory
to Border of Buena
Vista Lake

A telegram from Maricopa late last night
states that out the fiat near the Crown
property the Obispo well flowed oil at the rate
of 10000 barrels a day."
The Obispo well is located in the northeast
quarter of the southwest quarter of Section
32-12-23. and is almost due south OF the crown
ON company, being over two miles out on the
fiat in what is called the Buena Vista or Mid
way basin. The depth Of the well is 1900 feet
and the gravity Of the oil over 20 degrees
Baume. .
This we'll proves the opinion of expert oil
men who contend that the oil bearing sands
which outcrop in the foothills back of Mari
copa extend eastward out to AMI under the
Buena Vista lake at gradual incline.
The Honolulu Consolidated OIL company has
twelve rotaries in operation in the Buena Vista
hills and has orders for sixteen additional
machines On section 24-32-24, adjoining the
Crowns property, this company expects to de-
velop a gusher most any day. This well
should prove that the same oil bearing forma-
tion underlies other properties in the immedi-
ate neighborhood.
