100 DERRICKS RISE
ON WITHDRAWN LAND
LocatorS in Frantic Effort to
Save Claims Rush Ma
teriaI to Domain

BAKERSFIELD, April Mot fewer
than 100 new wells started drilling and
fully 1000 new derricks erected on pub
lie land since the withdrawal order Of
the secretary of the interior last Sep
tember is the estimate of w. II. Hill
Of Barlow e. Eill, map makers, and the
figures are declared to be conservative
by j. r. ZumWalt and others who are
familiar with the development in Wild
cat territory on the Midway and Nc
Kittrick front.
The discrepancy between the number
of derricks built and the number of
drills actually at work is explained in
part by the fact that in large part of
the new territory it is practically i'm
possible so far to get water and other
necessities for drilling, and it is due in
part to the extreme haste with which
all the work has been done. Locators
in their frantic efforts to save their
claims from jumping first put men in
possession, then they built cabins, and
then derricks. With men on the ground
and a derrick up, thy have felt COM
paratively safe from jumpers, and are
taking little breathing spell-in some
cases enforced by lack of money and in
other cersse by impossibility to get ma
terials. The work of erecting derricks
is going on as frantically as ever, and
one must make almost daily trips
through the fields to keep track Of the
development work.
Il used to be able to tell about where

derricks," said Mr.. Hill, but can't do
it now. They are going up too fast to

Mr.. Hill says that rig timbers and
materials for derricks are being rushed

Consequently, unless there is positive

MASCOT MINE WORKS
NONE BUT AMERICANS

DOUGLAS, AriZ., April S.--The Dos
Cabezas mining region, north Of Doug
las, is experiencing a boom peculiarly
American. Manager Ely of the Mascot
Copper company has put on sixty
miners at the company's big plant, and
he has so far adhered to his policy not
to hire a single Mexican for work
either above or below ground.
The result is a boom at the camp
and in the vicinity of Wilcox. Look
ing across the valley from the Dragons
a long line of black specks can be seen
winding from the head of the valley
toward the Chiricahua mountains.
These are the teams hauling out ma
chinery and household goods to the
camp. The men are establishing their
families at the old gold village in the
mountains. The best machinery that
can be purchased is being put In at
the mine and already many hundreds
of thousands of tons of copper ore has
been blocked out.
The Mascot company Will begin to
erect a small smelter at the base of
the mountain early in the fall At
present no shipments are made. as the
camp . is not directly connected either
with the Southern Pacific system at
Pearce or the Ell Paso & Southwestern
at Courtland.
New families are coming in over the
Southern Pacific to take up govern
ment land near Wilcox and Court
land. The three stores at Wilcox, as
a result, are receiving an average of
three carloads Of goods every day.

AGENCIES WILL FORM
OIL STORAGE ADJUNCT
New Company Is to Take Care
of Surplus from Indepen-
dent Producers

BAKERSFIELD, April s.-When the
Kern county and Coalinga agencies
are merged and become one organiza-
ton, which act will take place next
week, immediate steps will be taken
by the new organization to form
storage company for the purpose of
taking care Of all surplus oil that may
come upon the hands of the organized
Independents.
The plan and detail of this storage
adjunct have been thoroughly thought
out and digested by the hands of the
agencies consequently its forming Will
be in the nature of a ratification of
what has already taken place. In fact,
the matter has gone so far on the
way of consummation that steel for n
million and q quarter barrels of stor-
age has already been ordered.
The plan of the storage company
and its manner of financing will be
along the lines of the Producers Trans
portation company. Each producer
or member of the agency will be given
a chance to take stock and thereby
share In the profits of the enterprise.
Charges a barrel for storage, sufficient
to guarantee a legitimate profit on the
investment, will be made, as in the
transportation company. III duulllOi,
funds will be provided to advance on
oil in storage in case the producer
finds need of money.
1t Is the plan of the storage company
to maintain storage capacity in all
the fields sufficient to meet emergen-
cies, particularly such emergencies as
the gusher creates, but the bulk of
the storage capacity will be erected
at or near Tidewater near the termi-
nal of the Producers pipe line.
BY maintaining a large quantity of
oil in storage, the agency will be able
to land and take care OF large con-
tracts guaranteeing delivery, and by
advancing funds to its members on the
oil in storage 1t will be enabled to
maintain the storage necessary. An
effort was made by a committee APP
pointed by both agencies to arrange
for loans from a syndicate of banks
on oil in storage. but there was so
much red tape interposed by the money
lenders that the new plan was formed.
This is but one of the many steps
which the Independents have lately
taken to strengthen their position, and
the consummation of the plans now
being worked out will make them i'm
pregnable to assault. The organiza
tion stands today at the head of the
marketing concerns of crude oil.
