$15,OOO,OO0 LOST IN
RIVER NEAR TAJ0 MINE

Low grade gold ore. running lightly
in silver, is being profitably mined and
treated at the average rate of ESQ tons
a day at the Tajo mine, Rosario camp
of the state of Sinaloa, where 1t Is
estimated that tailings to the value or
SIS, ,000, 600 have been carried down the
river and lost on account of imperfect
reduction methods employed in the
past. 1t is calculated that the tailings
were even more valuable per ton than
the ores now being handled.
The new gold discovery on the Ger
ros river, in the southwest corner of
the state of Sinaloa, is developing into
a veritable bonanza. on Ia Junta
mine, only nominally prospected to
date, there have been exposed several
lodes all going well in the yellow, one
of them showing constant values aver
aging $3.50 gold per ton to a depth of
100 feet. 1t is estimated that truck
already blocked out and in sight Is
worth 100000 gold. Shipments from
the new strike are going forward to
the Eel Paso smelter, via Alamos. So
bia is the name OF the camp, which has
attracted the attention of prospectors
and miners from Arizona and Califor-
mia.

OIL GUSHER NEWS
FROM ACTIVE FIELD
British Syndicate May Own PinaI
Property-Pioneer Midway
Development

An announcement of great interest in
oil circles is to the effect that the Pinal
Oil company will probably pass into
the hands of British syndicate. The
Pinal is one of the largest independent
oil companies in the state. The price
to be paid for it is reported to be
81. 000. 900, and the terms are cash.
The Pinal company has 400 acres or
the richest land in the Santa Mara
with twenty-six producing wells. II
has paid out more than $S0O,00O In
dividends, and has recently enlarged lts
holdings by a lease on tract near
the famous Palmer gusher. The com
pany is one of the pioneer concerns OF
the Santa Maria district.
Arthur Anderson, an operator from
the Devils Den country, says trouble
is being experienced over prospective
oil land in that section, caused prin-
cipally by persons who originally made
locations four or five years ago. but
who have permitted their claims to re-
vert to the government, and who are
now making a hard fight with later
loeators to retain the land.
The Boston Petroleum company has
brought in its first well on the new
lease IN the southwest quarter of 20,
oil The well was completed sooner
than expected and is said to be well
up to the average of the Kern river
field.
The Boston is prepared to drill TWEEN
ty wells In and around No. l, In addl-
tion to others on other sections con-
trolled by the company.
The Rose Oil company, operating in
the Fillmore district, struck oil in its
well there last week. The well hlled
up at least 1000 feet, and the flow Is
estimated at 400 barrels.
Wells Nos. l and of the United
Oil company on section 6, 1928, are
now flowing steadily, making better
than 1000 barrels of oil day. Both
we Is are putting out considerable
sard and celaning themselves, so that
further trouble from that cause is not
feared.
Pioneer Midway oil company recent
ly got a 10000 barrel well on section
80 21-22. Standard also brought in
a we'll on 80, 1924, that is doing 100
barrels daily, this being well No. 4.
on the same section well No. 2, Which
came in some time since flows from
5000 to 10000 barrels daily. On the
anticlinal line, where the Santa Fe
gusher. the new Pioneer Midway gush-
er. the celebrated Lakevlew gusher and
several Standard and other good wells
are located, there is also the eighty
acre tract of the American Midway a
$4,000 company just organized by
experienced oil men of Los Angeles,
and these men naturally feel quite con-
fident about their property.
In three and a half years the
Squires (Santa Maria OIL and Gas COM
pany) well No. of the Union has
produced 1,94S.231 barrels. and is still
flowing. No. 10 of the same lease in
two years and three months has pro-
duced to January / last 1,343,231, and
is still flowing. To January Hartnell
No /, the greatest gusher at Santa
Maria, now pumping 300 daily for
eighteen months, had yielded 1901, 334
barrels In six years Fox No. 1 has
produced $500 barrels. The Folsom
lease of 142 acres. with eight wells, has
produced 100000 barrels during its
operation, No 2 alone yielding 100000
barrels

MERGING OF INTERESTS
SHOW BETTER RESULTS

Radical changes in management will
follow the consolidation of the Kern
county and Coalinga independent oil
producing agencies. Instead of fifty
five directors of the board there will be
l5O. One vice president will be chosen
at the next election instead of two, and
the executive committee will consist of
fifteen men instead of five. A meeting
has been called for May 4. The con-
tracts of the Coalinga agency with the
Producers Transportation company
and the Union OIL company were rati-
fed and they will be carried out by
the present association. The Bakers
field agency is now the largest oil pro-
ducing body in the state. The product
will be marketed through the Union
Oil company.
