TWO BIC OIL AGENCIES
EFFECT CONSOLIDATION

Discussing the recent consolidation of
the oil producing agencies of Coalinga
and Bakersfield, II. II. Walsh, chief
promoter of the merger, said:
1.-THE two agencies are Joined so
closely together today that they just
as we'll operate from one general office
and affairs of the producers be acted
upon as one body. The Independent
Producers Agencies have grown from
small combination of oil producers sell
ing their oil to the marketers, to the
largest producers of fuel oil, and the
greatest adjunct to what will probably
become the greatest marketing concern
i'm the world. 1t is up to the producers,
now TO take advantage of every oppor-
tunity and to assist the Union oil com
pany, which is the selling agent, to
market the oil to the best possible ad-
vantage. The agencies have grown so
that In a very short time complications
would arise from the fact that the busi-
ness was not handled by one organiza-
tion. In the marketing of the oil con-
trolled by the agencies, three factors
must work in absolute harmony, the
Union Oil company, the Producers
Transportation company and the Pro-
ducers Agencies. In order to facilitate
this harmony OF action and promote
the interest of all, the consolidation of
the agencies is necessary, and will also
be of advantage in bringing every in
dependent producing company into the
organization"
The Union Oil company has put all
of its Santa Maria and other coast pro-
duction into the Coalinga agency, and
its production from other fields will be
better handled by one organization.
II was reported that the Lakeview
production of between $4,000 and 10000
barrels a day will be stored in tanks TO
be erected, so that the large flow will
not force other producers to hold back
production. The company has ordered
ten $4,000 barrel tanks for the storage
of the oil.
Secretary w. p. Robb stated at
bakersfield that no complaint whatever
has come to his ears concerning the
price received by the agency members
for their February oil. The price is
lower than was received under the old
contract with the Associated, but the
Independents appear to recognize the
fact that in launching a new business
AS they are practically doing in the
marketing of their oil-they are for
tunate In starting so ausplciously. One
of the acknowledgements an officer
said: II was mighty glad to get A
cents 1 think we are doing fine"
All the agency officers say they ex-
pect the net return a barrel to the
agency members will increase from
month to month. The low priced con-
tracts taken over from the Union are
for short periods, and the new busi-
ness is being taken on a much better
basis

STAMPS POUNDING
ON PRECIOUS ORE
Active Operations Renewed at
Big Consolidated MiII-70
Stamps Working

GOLDFIELD, New, April 1s.-This
week seventy stamps win be pounding
on ore at the Consolidated mill unless
something unforeseen occurs, accord
ing to a statement made by General
Manager ]. II. Finlay. This is an
achievement that will come as most
gratifying surprise to the people of
Goldneld and to mining men generally,
and is the fruition of an executive
ability that has long stamped the
management of the Consolidated COM
pany as veritable wonder-workers.
The permanent tramway will be OPP
Grated with an electric hoist which
will pull a string of mine cars up the
incline by means of q wire cable, and
will for the time being replace the
belt conveyor that was destroyed with
other equipment of the mill just one
week ago.
1t is expected that these seventy
stamps will keep the mill going at
about two-thirds full capacity, or ap-
proximately $50 tons a day, as all other
portions of the mill are in working
order. While this rate Is being kept
up, another battery of ten stamps that
is only slightly damaged will be re-
paired and added to the stamping
force, and then as rapidly as possible
others Will be replaced by new ones
while reconstruction of the mill is go
ing on.
The mining force will soon be almost
normal in the underground workings,
and what revenue is lost by the cur
tailment of stamp duty will be made
up by shipments of high grade ore
from the Clermont.

When you buy Merchants

LAKEV|EW GUSHER IS
FLOWING 10000 A DAY

The Oil Age Is authority for the state
ment that the former Lakeview gusher
on fractional section %, in the sun
set-Maricopa field, owned by the Lake
view Oil company, Is keeping up its
steady flow in excess of 10000 bar
rels a day In order to stop the flow
above the derrick, a hugh bulkhead
thirty-six feet square and twelve feet
high has been constructed about the
derrick to serve as a receptacle for the
OIL which, collecting In this space,
tends to break the force of the flow
from the pipe. This experiment has
proven a partial success in preventing
the oil from shooting above the derrick
top as formerly, when it would break
into spray and be carried by the winds
and distributed over the surrounding
territory, not only wasting the oil, but
making II disagreeable for those COM
PEELED to work anywhere in the vicfn.
ity.
Advices received yesterday are to the
effect that the well is subsiding. Val

Work Of the CONGRESS.

The Southern Commercial Congress
as union of the constructive forces
of the South is, as one feature of its
work, exerting every influence to
bring Southern real estate men into
the National advertising field, for it
is recognized that no matter how
much truth may be brought to light
regarding that third of the United
States which is potentially richest,
the full value of that publicity is new
err realized until the attention of an
individual is fastened on a specific
piece of land.
The encouragement relative to Ma
tional advertising is that 1t is expen-
sive and cannot, at the outset, be un-
dertaken and sustained except by
large corporations. The small real
estate man is almost hopeless when
he finds that a good display advertise,
ment in a good medium of National
circulation may easily run up into
thousands of dollars for one inser
ton. To encourage the small real
estate man. the Southern Commercial
Congress is urging cooperative ad
vertising. We urge the real estate
