ARMFD FORCE GUSTS
OIL CLAIM JUMPERS
Honolulu Consolidated Wins a
Victory Over c. L. Lyman

According to George E. Whitaker, at
torney for the Honolulu Consolidated
oil company, that company emerged
victorious over c. L. Lyman and asso-
ciates, who Sunday jumped the south
half of section so. 1924. in North Mid
way. Lyman was elected when super
intendent j. a. Pollard and an armed
force took the tents, tools and equipage
of the jumpers off the land.
Besides the Honolulu property it is
learned that jumpers have erected
tents on the Standards section Is
nearby, but no attempt has yet been
made to oust them.
The jumpers on section so were
armed.
The Honolulu Consolidated is head
ed by Captain William Matson of San
Francisco. The Honolulu Consolidated
leased section 80 from P. Barrett, j. M.
Dunn and associates some time ago,
and already has done considerable de-
velopment work on each quarter sec

PROSPECTORS RUSH TO
CAMP WITHOUT NAME
Discovery of Oil Indications
Causes Great Rush

The discovery of oil indications IL
miles northwest from Garden station.
in Kern county, has resulted in an oil
excitement in that locality, says dis
patch from johannesburg. Oilmen are
daily going into that district, which is
at the present without a name, and
oil locations have been filed over ter
ritory of several miles.
1t is stated that already two rigs
have been ordered for immediate de-
livery at Series, which is the nearest
railroad point, and that lumber and
supplies in large quantities are being
freighted into the district.
Two hundred persons are in the new
camp and every day adds to the pop
ufatien.
Oil indications have been known TO
exist in this part of the country for
nearly two years. but the significance
of these indications was not appre-
ciated until Investigated recently by
oil experts When these experts pro-
nounced the Indications similar to those
of the San Joaquin oil fields the news
spread rapidly with it's attendant rush
of prospectors.

N ] WELL REACHES
THE GUSHER sand
Strata Corresponds to Heavy
Producing Sand Struck by
the Lakeview

Official confirmation has been re-
ceived from the NJ company that the
first we'll started on the NJ ] property
has reached the gusher sand CORE
spending to the heavy producing strata
of the Lakeview well. The drill en-
tered the oil sand within few feet of
the calculations of the superintendent
being at a less depth than the Lake
view we'll. owing to the fact that the
well is located a little higher on the
anticline
The log of this well on the NJ prop
erty correlates with the log of the
Lakeyiew we'll, showing that it pene-
trated the same heavy sands. Another
well, now down 1900 feet, carries the
same log as the Lakeview.
The strata struck by these two wells
show that they will have heavy flow
of oil as soon as the oil strata are suf-
ficiently penetrated. The operators
now are making all necessary prepar-
ations to control the heavy flow of oil
before going deeper into the strata.
The pressure of gas and oil now in
sures heavy production. BY making
early preparations to control these
wells the operators will protect them
selves against heavy loss. The COM
Ing in of these two wells will tend to
hasten the construction of another
pipe line to take care of all the
gushers produce.
NJ. J. Laymance says that he is not
surprised at the developments, as he
has hooked forward with great conf
dence to the coming of these wells.
When he heard some time ago that
Laymance had bought the property.
John d. Hoff. the geologist, predicted
that this section, No. SO, would prove
the richest oil territory in the world
The coming in of these two wells on
36 gives NJ. J. Laymance another sue
cess in his large oil operations.
