SANTA FE PENETRATES ]
DEEP SAND IN SECTION 6

TAFT, April 16.-That a deep sand
underlies the productive area from
which the wells of the Santa Fe and
United Oil company have been drawing
on section 6, 1928. has been demon
strated by the Santa F'e in No. 5. This
hole was down 1905 feet on Monday,
and in sand, with considerable gas
pressure. The hole is kept loaded with
water, and drilling will continue as
long as conditions are favorable, unless
the gas gets too strong. Alternate
strata of oil sands and oil shale have
been encountered from about 100 feet
down to the present depth.
The first big strike of the Santa Fe
was made at 1405 feet, in the famous
2-6 flowing WELL which has marvellous
record for steady production This well
has dwindled to about 500 to 900 barrels
a day, but the flow is as regular as of
yore. The next well in this vicinity
was No. 1 of the United Oil company
300 feet to the west, followed by Nos.
and of the same company. All three
of these wells entered the sand at APP
proximately the same depth as the big
Santa B'e, and are flowing wells though
not so 1arge as 2-6. On the east, across
the line on section 81, 1928, the Eagle
Creek, then the Midway Crude, had
small we'll at about 1900 feet before the
Santa Fe came in. ThlS well mas since
been deepened to 2007 feet and is flow
ing about 900 barrels daily of the same
gravity oil as it's neighbors.
Well No. of the Santa Fe is higher
up on the formation than No 2, or of
any of the United wells, and is prob
ably i'm the same sand now as the Eagle
Creek at 2001 feet. To the north and
west the American Oilfields has struck
the top one of the producing strata in
two wells, at $40 and 1110 feet indicat-
ing that the formation is regular and
unbroken, with slight uplift to the
northwest. The situation forms an in
teresting study to those companies
which are drilling in that locality, and
it is the intention of the United Oil
company to drill one of its wells into
the deeper strata.

psychological qualities of proprietor,
which are very different from those of

for which these calculations have been
made. Since 1895, however, the riches
OF France show no increase, but a
slight decrease.
AS to the division of wealth, the
standard was the number of success
sions of from $400 to $500 for every
thousand deaths of persons over 40.
In France they amount to 364 and in
Alsace to 399, while in Holland, despite
it's riches, the figure is only 218; in
England 1856 and In Italy 1870. "Conse-
quently," concluded NJ. Bertillon,

FORTUNA DERRICK is
WRECKED BY BLOWOUT

TAFT, April 16,-The Fortuna. north
half of the northwest quarter of 10
31-32. experienced a terrific and spec-
tacular blowout one day last week at
a depth of 800 feet i'm it's first hole.
The derrick was badly wrecked, the
temper screw torn from the beam and
the cable ruined. In consequence the
plant is undergoing extensive repairs.
The hole of the Fortuna is located in
the southeast corner of the lease and
inasmuch as the we'll Of the Dominion
2000 feet deep. is located in the south
west corner of this same quarter and
the Yancey well, 1900 feet deet, is on
the south side of the southeast quarter
of the section. and neither of these
wells experienced any such upheayal. F..
the action of the Fortuna wassnotseons
templated and was therefore a great
surprise to Manager Gardner The gas
cavorted for some hours and tons and
tons of sand came up and massed
about the derrick and boiler house
The sand was sufficiently saturated
with oil to hold together when squeez-
ed in the hand.

PETROLEUM DEVELOPMENT
OPERATES SEVEN DRILLS

FULLERTON FIELD April 16.-
Seven strings are at work on the Pc
troleum Development (Santa Fe), one
new rig is up. four locations have been
selected and forty-three wells are pro-
ducing some 2600 barrels daily. OF
this the lighter product is exchanged
for heavier fuel.
The light oil comes from the east
side OF the property and the new rigs
are there. Depths are between 210O
and 5000 feet. but No. 20 was sunk to
1900 feet i'm the hope of increased pro-
duction after that from the stratum at
23O0 had fallen to some fifteen barrels
daily. The effort was failure, no
oil being found below the first produc-
tion.

enter the established lines. The Stan
dard is duplicating its Midway Kern
river line. A project, as good as guar
anteed, to construct q line from the
Kern county west side fields to that
important market comprising the
thriving cities and towns and busy
mining camps of Arizona, has lately
been launched by a group OF men
whose ability to achieve results is be-
yond question. Still another pipe line
from the valley to tidewater is within
the strong probabilities, although no
public announcement of intention has
yet been made by those behind the
plan.
1t Is apparent, therefore, that the
present over production is temporary
only in It's nature, that it cannot last
for any great length of time. Soon
there will be means of transportation
for all the oil that can be produced,
not taking into account the inevitable
decrease of individual wells, and the
business Of the Pacific coast from
Alaska to Chill will readily consume
whatever can be delivered. This coast,
particularly California, is advancing
rapidly along all lines and Is probably
the most prosperous region in the
world today. 1t will buy all the oil it
can get.
Evidently, then, this is not the time
for panic. for the offering of oil at low
rates. 1t is a time for obstinate en-
deavor to preserve that which has been
gained and to resist whatever efforts
may be made in any quarter to break
values and bear down prices. IT is n
time for sitting tight and refusing to

CRADLES
UNREASONABLE.

Cradles are going out; children are
not wearing them any more. People
tell us that rocking is unhygienic;
babies, according to modern idea,
should go to sleep naturally in a sta
tionery germ proof bed with antisep-
tic pillows and a sanitized rattle.
Sentiment may save the cradle for a
little while, but sooner or later it
will go to the dusty attic along with
the hair-cloth sofa. Maybe the in
FAINT of tomorrow will bear up some
how under these accumulated mis-
fortunes, will struggle along some
how to maturity, but what about the
artists, the poets, the song writers
What world of sentiment and mel
ody has been woven around the
theme of the mother and the gently
rocking cradle. What kind of song
will the poor poet of the future be
able to make about an enameled iron
crib with brass trimmings?
