SECTION EIGHT is ACTIVE

COALINGA, May THE California
Coalinga Oil company, operating on
the south half of the north half OF
section S-20-15, and having also the
southeast quarter of the same section
on a lease from J. Fearon, completed
well No. at 1892 feet, with seventy
feet of oil sand. The well was brought
in last January, and has been steady
producer, making from 400 down to
$50 barrels a day. 1t is today making
$50 barrels of clean oil. free from water
and silt. The sand bothers but little,
and is soon removed when the well
sands up.
This section is a busy one. Just
north is the Coalinga National Petro-
leum, with well No. 1 about ready to
cement at 1920 feet. Marve Cory is
looking for the heavy blue to shut off
the water in. The California Coalinga
got this heavy blue at about 2640.
On the north half of the north half
is the Coalinga Eight Oil company,
now drilling. To the south is the NJ.
X. & T. Oil company. the pioneer
company of the section, with two
wells completed. Well No. is making
800 barrels a day of clean oil: well
/
the 41a-inch casing having been re
placed and the well will soon be pro-
ducing again.
The last companv attracted to this
section is the Coalinga Security, nav
ing purchased forty acres in the south
west corner. The hole is being put
down by a rotary on contract to drlll
and complete the well, and is now nov,
2170 feet deep, having started to drill
April 4.
The California Coalinga will develop
the north half of the south half OF the
section first. this being shalloWer than
the southeast quarter

The w. K. Oil company, section 2-2O-
Is, we'll No. 5. is making 1850 barrels
day. Well No. is shut down for
the present until we'll No. 4, which is
now in very promising oil sand, Is
completed.
The Azores Oil company. section 26-
21-15, is $500 feet deep with 65s-fnch.
Late reports credit a change Tor the
good in the formation.
The California Oilfields. limited, is
pushing work on the well in the south-
east corner of section 34-19-15, evident
ly anxious to get the w. X. sand be
fore the K. T. & o. well on section 80
has too much of lead on the gas and
oil.
Contractor A. NJ. Gilstrap reports
considerable activity about the east
slopesof the Kettleman hills. He has
contract to build four standard rigs
on section S-22-18 also four other rigs
not far from section s, but the owners
desire to be kept in the background
for the present.
The Coalinga National Petroleum
company. section s, 2O-15, will cement
off the water as soon as it reaches the
heavy clay, which should come in at
about 2630 feet, according to the log

Precious Wine.


The most celebrated of all the wines OF
Germany is known as rose wine, and ac-
cording to a French contemporary II Is
jealousy preserved in the town hall OF
Breme.
The wine has been In the vaults, SO we
learn, since 1921, when the conscript fathers
had six great watts made at Johannesburg
and six others at HoclShelmer Each re-
ceived the name OF one OF the apostles. It
is an unwritten law that as soon as bottle
of wine Is drawn from the watts similar
quantity of the same vintage Is put into the
tun, consequently, they are always full.
Each OF the tuns or watts In the town nail
at Breme cost originally Gas and their ca
pacity Ia 3N litres or about fifty-seven
gallons. Now we have our French stalls
tician again at work as TO the cost OF the
upkeep of the cellar. He comes to the
conclusion that each time a bottle OF this
wine is drunk 1t represents sum Of over
ESQ
pied the town, and the officers, Drawing the
anger Of the eoncil OF Breme, made free
with their precious wine, and It was said
that the town of Breme paid more 60

HOOK OF INSURANCE FAKIRS
Investors I'm Western Cities Said "a
Have BEEN Pinched by Fro


A prominent city In the west was recently
invaded by several persons bent upon the
organization OF a life insurance company.
The plans they presented the literature
they exhibited and the appeals they made
to local pride and human greed resulted
in their obtaining subscriptions for the
capital and surplus required. With the ad-
vance payments secured. the promoters in
corporated. the company fitted up suite
Of offices in elegant style and elected them
selves the executive officers of the company
at good round salaries. The more prominent
subscribers were named as directors Of Re
concern, and using their names as endorsS
ers of the scheme. the promoters readily Sc
cured a fair amount OF business from the
business associates, acquaintances and
townsmen Of the directors. Money came in
freely, and the officers reported that the
company was booming" After a few
months some OF the directors-sound. level
headed business men7-concluded to investi-
gate the affairs OF the company fors which
they stood sponsors. The result ssowed that
the money which came in 90 freely had been
more freely oonsumd in salaries and ex-
penses, and that the only beneflciaries to
date were the promoters. who had made no
provision for the policyholders they had Sc
Of the promoters in the shape OF a request
from the directors that they resign and
give up all connection with the company.
Thereupon the promoters produced con-
tract made between the company and them
selves which provided for their retention
In office Tor term OF years at specified
salaries, and also guaranteeing them a
liberal commission upon all the business
transacted. These willy promoters had the
whip hand OF the directors and were de-
termined TO improve their opportunity. In
short, the directors, who had their own
good names to protect. were forced to buy
out the promoters, reorganize the company
and make up the impaired capital The pro-
moters then sought other fields and pas
tunres new in which to repeat their opera 7
lions. The directors who had been thus de
ceived Immediately secured the services OF
some practical insurance men to manage
the business, and the company Is now
fairly on its feet, after severe struggle
with insolvency staring 1t in the face. and
is making fairly good progress. This is an
instance OF the practical results of the pro.
motion schemes with which the country has
been flooded with the exception that
majority of such cases result in failure
after the promoters have made all they
can out OF them. Subscribers to such paper
concerns are often misled by the fake state
ments and "doctored' statistics that pre-
tend to show the Immense profits TO be re-
allied from a small investment. Natural
cupidity has much weight in securing sub
scrptions, but the exercise OF ordinary
business precaution would save many from
becoming victims to this alluring bait ThS
public has been swindled out OF hundreds
OF thousands OF dollars during the last few
years by these promotion falsirs."-New

CHICAGO, Aug 6--Eagerness to grab
