WILDCATS-Since Cushing, despite
its present production slump, still is
looked upon as the main pool Of the
Mid Continent field, the outside tests
that would prove its oil bearing lands
are first in importance. All these any
distance from the pool have been fail
ures. Only the richness Of the chief
oil bearing sands warrants the Wild
eating that now has started.
Rigs are now going up in township
10, range Z. Timbers for the rig and
tools are being moved in for a test
in section 6, according to Lincoln
county oil men. The names of the
operators and the description is lack
ing.
A rig is being built on the Hanks
farm, section 2S, 1871, nine miles
northeast of Stroud. Lincoln county
and drilling is to be started this month
ii Is understood
White Ufer and Sinclair are drill
ing the only test in township 16, range
S. They are down between 500 and
900 feet on the Johnny Meyers farm,
section 8.
North of the pool much work has
commenced. Several rigs are up in
the upper sections Of lS-7 Others are
reported, but the locations have not
been verified, in 1871. The Rev ]. NJ,
Critchlow, who is perhaps the most
persistent widcatter in the field, since
he Is starting four or more far ahead
Of production, is drilling at about 1900
feet on the Frank Mitchell farm, sec
ton 3, 25-5, southeast corner of the
northwest quarter Naturally, there
has been no showing. Mr.. Critchlow's
tests in section 33, 40, southwest
corner Of the northeast of the north
east, is started. He is drilling, also
three miles west of Yale and on the
Milton Thompson farm, section 10,
20-J. The depth of these tests is not
known.
Directly west of the production,
Shaffer,, Crawford, ct al, are drilling
at 2,775 feet on the school land, which
takes in all of section 16, 1-6. The
hole is on the center Of the west line
1t will be drilled to 1900.
Gunsburg and Forman have drilled
three outsiders, all of which are fail
ures. On the Unuch Logan, section
20, 17-S, they had drilled last night
to 1895 feet, found no Wheeler, and
were going on down after the Bartles-
Vile Dry to 1854 feet, their test on
going deeper, after delay Of a day OF
two with casing trouble. On the
Francis Brown, section SO, 17-7, il
seems that II any oil at all is made,
It must come from the line about 100
feet below the Wheeler. In this there
was showing for n 20 barrel well, but
drilling still is going on below $500
feet.
The Missouri and Oklahoma Oil
company is dry to 1900 feet, and
shut down on the northwest corner of
the southwest quarter, section 81, ia.
The Gypsy OF lcompany temporarily
is shut down at about the same depth
on the Dunkin farm. section 13, 1874,
southeast corner of the northwest
corner Of the northwest quarter, due
to trouble whit land owners.
The three or four other tests re-
ported in the territory close to the
town of Gushing. stlll are locations.
The pools of the south are next
many would insist they are first-in
importance.
White, Ufer and Sinclair are spud-
ding in on the Teke allotment, sec
ton 8, 12-11.
The Quaker oil and Gas company
is drilling at $40 feet on the Pahose
Fixico, section 2, lilo. and, after
skidding to a new location, is drilling
