RAMSEY POOL A PUZZLER.
Operators I'm Some Doubt just Where
to Locate i'm the Southeast Ex-
tension of the Pool,


One Of the puzzles of the oil situa-
tion in the Ramsey pool is just where
the extension to the southeast goes.
1t looked for a time as If the pool
really extended to tie southwest, but
the operations there have caused a
regular puzzle as to just what is what
in that territory and there is great
interest among operators as to just
what will happen in this territory.
Some time ago the Crede OIL COM
pany drilled in on the Sanders in 7
2S-13, and it looked then as If the pool
went further to the southeast, but
what looked like dry streak was
encountered in this we'll and those fur
ther to the north.
The Doreathea OIL company got a
small well in 6-2S-12 in the northwest
corner and then moved one location
east to what looked like sure territory
and drilled a dry hole.
The Hazel Oil company offset No.
on the Barnes and got a large gasser
and yesterday drilled an offset to the
same well to the northwest on the
Betsy Gertie and got what was thought
to be dry hole in the regular Ram
sey sand. The drilling was continued,
however on through a break and the
result was they drilled into another
streak of pay and have fine well in
sand that is but a few feet below the
regular Ramsey sand.
They are now figuring on going
location northwest of this hole
The Pck@ick Oil company went
deeper In No. on the Dora B. Coch-
ran in 6-2S-13 and got good show
ing in deeper sand.
To make the extension of the Ram
sey to the southeast more uncertain
C. f. Hall yesterday drilled in a dry
hole in the southeast corner of the
Santa Bante in 7-2S-13.
The Creta Oil company moved No.
2 location north of No. nthe San
ders in 1918 and brought in a good
We'll which, however, showed less
sand than No. /. 1t was figured from
this that the pool extended to the
south. Yesterday Frank Philips and
others offset No. l on the Sanders.
and brought in a Well which also
showed less sand than expected.
AS result of these developments in
the south end of the Ramsey, It would
seem to be very uncertain just what
to do and the operators are guessing
where to move next.
Mark Mitchell shut down operations
in the Ramsey pool yesterday for the
summer and has gone to Colorado.
The David on company drilled in
No. on the Lula Wilson and No. 7
on the Rosa Wilson and got average

AZ the trade Of Tulsas manufac-
turers extends and is constantly wid-
enlng out, there are many obstacles
being met with, some OF which can be
eliminated, or at least minimized, by
a better knowledge OF conditions.
Freight rates, Of course, are the great
est handicap, but as Tulsa is situated
country in the world, outbound rates
from here are not necessarily a draw
back which cannot be overcome. EN-
porting from Tulsa TO the oil fields OF
Mexico has got TO be an every day
occurrence, and w. II. Milliken, who
recently returned from there, had
some suggestions To offer which may
be Of value 10 shippers here. He says
that on machinery intended for use In
the oil fields, there Is great delay at
the custom house in Tampico, brought
about by reason Of the fact that from
any port other than New York, GUS
tom house officials are yNry slow in
making appraisements and passing
merchandise. He further suggested a
novel way OF getting machinery in
quickly which is that a photograph be
forwarded to the consul at the port Of
entry. which photograph should be
taken with the machine set up in
working order, but that the machine
should be shipped knocked down and
securely packed, In iron bound boxes;
singular as It may seem. appraise-
ment ismade from the photograph.
AS drilling is very slow'process down
there, anything which will be condu-
Give to a saving of time should be a
good thing. Everything lis trans
ported by water in Mexican oil fields,
just as motor boats are utilized al
most exclusively for passenger traf'
fic.

last night In the election OF two mem
bers of the state board Of agriculture.
Vincent OF Claremore and McAllister
OF Custer county succeeded Cobb and
Diehl, who were not candidates for
reelection.
Campbell Russell was on hand and
when President q. T. Bryan, presid-
ing, informed the institute that II any
one desired to make complaint the
way was open. Russell arose and an
nounced that he charged the board
with being derelict and eXtrayagant
in the handling Of funds. He was
on the ground that Russell! was not
a delegate to the institute.
Threatened Clash.
Bryan and Ewers White, IA repub-
lican member Of the board. threaten
ed TO clash in the night session In
the college auditorium, when White
attempted to speak after being de-
clared out Of order by Bryan. II was
in this hall one year ago that Camp
bell Russell, after being declared out
of order, slowly walked up to the
aisle and out OF the door in front OF
the deputy sheriff.
Last night when White declined to
yield to the ruling Of President Bryan
the latter called for the Payne county
sheriff, who was in the hall for the
purpose of preserving order. The
sheriff was slow in responding. Bryan
dropped his gavel and jumped to tho
floor and made down the center aisle
where White stood w. j. CaudilL
state enforcement officer who at
tended the institute as an observer,
sought to interpose an objection to
the president interfering with White.
In an instant there was an uproar,
the delegates crowding over the opera
chairs to where White and Bryan
were coming together. william II.
Murray took up the gavel ana urged
the delegates mot to disgrace them
selves" and Bryan returned to the
stage and White resumed his seat
Legislative Committee.
Among the resolutions adopted was
one providing for a legislative COM
mittee of five, to be appointed by the
president, to look after the boards
interests before the next legislature.
A special committee of ten farmers
will be appointed in each county,
which will make 1855 actively engaged
in promoting the boards legislation.
