% STRINGS To WORK
IN VENTURA COUNTY

SANTA PAULA, April 3O.-Unless all
signs fail some fifty strings Of tools
will be at work in Ventura county
within the next thirty days at the out
side. Some thirty are already busy
The active area is found in Big Sespe,
Little Sespe, Santa Paula and Torrey
(Bardsdale) canyons chiefly, as also in
Nigger and Copper canyons at Plru
and in Adams canyon Not for years
has the county seen such an amount Of
work.
Some oil is shipped to Los Angeles
refneries by cars, while the Union
takes out some heavier product in this
way Some is piped to Ventura for
water shipment. The Standard pipe
line goes through the field, but it car
ries only it's own oil to Newhall. The
Union in buying pays the market price
Sometimes a producers oil is applied
to a certain contract and he receives
a. ,rroportion of the amount paid on
that. so that it will be more or less
according to the contract price. Oil
is being shipped from Santa Paula to
Santa Barbara for the street car com
pany and electric light plant.

BUICK NOW READY
To DRILL OIL WELLS

D. D. Buick of Flint, Mich, president
of the Buick Automobile company, is
also the president of the Buick Oil COM
pany, recently organized in Los Angeles
to develop land in North Midway, Sun
set and Southeast Sunset. Leases have
been secured on a large aggregate acre
age in these fields, and preparations for
drilling have been going ahead for some
time.
The first development work will be
done on forty acres in section 81, 1928
which is in the North Midway gusher
belt. F. F. Hoard, who will be general
manager for the company, says lumber
for the rig on section 80 will be shipped
from San Francisco today, and other
materials are on the way. The well
will be put down with Johnson rotary
and twelve men will be employed.
Plans have been made for 16x4S-foot
bunk house, and a boarding house and
office 1Sx52 feet.
The Buick company also has forty
acres adjoining the Lady Washington
and F. Y. Gordon land in the south
west quarter of section 6, 11-23. and
has a large amount of land leased from
the Sunset Security Oil company south
east of Hazelton.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-05-01
STATE OIL LANDS
COVER $50 MILES

The total proved petroleum territory
in California is $50 square miles, ac-
cording to Ralph Arnold, who has
nearly completed the Investigations in
this state for the United States geo
logical survey. This is less than half
the area in Pennsylvania, which is 1000
square miles. But it is more the thick
ness of the oil bearing strata than 1t
is the area of a field that determines
it's value. In the latter state pay sands
are only five feet thick, while in CALI
fornia, according to Mr.. Arnold's meas
urements, they are something over 100
feet thick. 1t is therefore plainly evil
dent that the California field will still
be producing oil when that of Penn
sylvania is a thing of the past. The
latter's oil fields are the Oldest in the
United States and as long as seventeen
wears ago reached their high produc-
ton mark. They have declined to one
third their highest rate of production.
and il is estimated that only 1000, ,O00,-
600 barrels now remain in the ground
there. while in the known California
fields there are $500, 100000 barrels; and
it is probable that more fields will be
discovered here.
Next in importance to those of Cali
fornia are the Lima, Indiana, fields
with an area of 2O4O square miles and
supply of 5000, 100000 still in the
ground California's nearest competit-
or. the so-called gulf field-Texas and
Louisiana-has an area of only $50
square miles and but 1,00O,OOO,OOO bar
reIs still in the pay sands. All this
makes it plainly evident that in the
course of not very distant time the
whole United states may be dependent
upon CALI Jrnia for crude oil.

VALUES BETTER IN
LARGER JARBIDGE

Distinct change of the predominant
ing element in Jarbidge district is
noted by w w Fisk, the engineer who
is conducting operations there for Col.
George w. e. Dorsey and associates.
Mining men who are looking for ground
to take over under lease and bond now
outnumber the ranchmen and herders
who were at first the largest element
in the camp, he says. On account of
the eXtravagant prices demanded for
ground in the vicinity of the Bourne
property the mining men have been
gravitating away from the sO-called
center of the district, and are finding
good showings at distances varying
from three miles to fifteen miles from
the Bourne discovery, large toward the
south and southwest.
A significant circumstance which Mr..
Fisk mentions is that, since weather
conditions have permitted prospectors
to cover wider area, the average
value Of the samples received by as
sayers of the camp has shown marked
increase.
Ore of the specimen variety has been
opened in the Riddle lease on the
Bourne property. Many regard the
showing in that lease as eXcelling that
in the Bourne main workings. Mr.. Fisk
is getting excellent paintings from the
