ANTICLlNES IN UNDEVELOPED
REGION IN OKLAHOMA.

That the geologist can save to the
practical oil man large sums yearly
in useless drilling is a fact which is
becoming more and more clearly re-
cognized. 1t is possible for him to de
termine from rock exposures the To-
cation and extent Of rock folds which
seem to constitute the principal fac
tor in the accumulation or concentra-
tion of oil and gas in regions where
they are present If in most fields
oil and gas are found in anticlmes
or upiolds of the rocks, it is obvious
ly useless in testing a new field to
begin by drilling in the downfolds
or synclines, yet this is often done.
In order to point out the most favor
able localities for tests by the drill
and to save to the oil men and to the
country at large a part at least of the

RAISE OBJECTIONS
TO TAXABLE VALUE
COMPANIES OBJECT TO RECENT
HORIZONTAL INCREASES BY
BOARD.

Oklahoma City, Okla, June A.
When the state board of equalization
made a horizontal increase of taXabl,
values Of corporations a few days ago
it expected that there would be pro
tests. 1t set June 10 as a date fol
the hearing of protests and provided
that notice of such protests shall be
/ fled in advance of that date. Up tC
| this time there have been filed notices
! from fifteen companies that they have
objection to the valuations made by
the board There are several more
days in which the notices may be
filed.
Among the big concerns that have
fled notice is the Prairie Oil and
Gas Company. The board increased
the taxable value of oil in storage to
81 barrel, which is considerably in
excess of the market value.
In a number of cases increases from
b'N W t'' pei Itlll ONtl lIt ItluIuS
were made by the board. The assess
ed valuation of the Pullman Company,
which had been placed at a previous
meeting of the board at $l,13S,OOO, was
raised per cent.
A schedule was adopted as a basis
for assessing properties of oil compa-
nieS. The new schedule is 80 per
cent increase over the one adopted
last year. Crude oil in storage is as
sessed at 81 a barrel
The assessed valuation of the Ok
lahoma Gas and Electric Company is
placed at $3,OOO,O00, an increase of
$596,000 over the valuation fixed by
the board last year. The company re-
turned its property at S1,127,946. The
oklahoma Railway Company was as
sessed at 5000, 297, an increase of
40 per cent over the returns. The
assessed valuation of the Muskogee !
Electric Traction Company was placed !
at $461 800, or 800 per cent increase |
over the returns, and the Tulsa Street !
Railway Co. at 100000 as against a
return of $92 $50. The Bartlesville In
terurban Railway was assessed at
100000.
\ valuation of S5,OOO,OOO was placed |
on the oklahoma Natural Gas Com |
pany, an increase of S3OOO,OOO over !
the assessment of last year. The as
sessments of some of the other gas
pipe line companies was: Usage and |
Oklahoma Company $1,OOO,OOO; Caney
River Gas Company, $1,OOO,OOO; Kan
'as Natural Gas Company, $22I951; |
Narnett Mining Company, $991,351.
An increase of 100000 was made in
he assessed valuation of the Western |
Union Telegraph Company, bringing
he total up to $1,26O,OOO. The assess
nent of the Mackay was placed at
'126,S96 and the Postal of Texas at
1880.

enormous sums uselessly expended in
drilling in unfayOrable locations, the
United States geological survey is
making investigations Of untried ter
ritory. In such Investigations the sur
vey outlines the structural features
most favorable in the area to oil ac-
cumulation. If oil is present in the
area, il is most likely to be found in
these features If, however, they are
barren, there is little prospect that
oil will be found anywhere in the
vicinity.
Federal and State Surveys Cooperate
During the last field season an area
of about $50 square miles in southern
Oklahoma was examined by a United
States geological survey party in
charge Of Carroll II. Wegemann. The
work was conducted in cooperation
with the Oklahoma geological survey,
which contributed a portion of the
funds for the investigation. The area
is north of the Petrolia field of Texas,
northeast of Burlihurnctt, and % miles
west Of the new Hcaldton field in Ok
lahoma, which is at present attract
ing so much attention. 1t lies north
of Red River and east of the region

sibIe Westward Extension of
AnticIinal Structure.

| In the south half of township Z
| south. range II west, there is pre-
vailing dip to the north, which holds
also along the north line of township
} south, range II west. In the south
west quarter of section II of the lat
ter township there is a slight reversal
of dip, suggestive Of the presence of
an anticlinal axis at this locality,
which may be the continuation of the
structure westward from the mouth
of Cache Creek. The anticlinal axis
continues westward from section II
for or ; miles, probably lying just
south of the course of Red River. 1t
there either dies out or swings south
burnett oil field. The examination
made by Mr. Wegemann's party seem
to show that the DeyoI anticline, de-
scribed by Mr.. Mum in Bulletin SAT
Of the survey, probably dies out east
of Randlett, or that, at all events,
its axis does not line in the south
ern part of township south, range
II west.
A map showing additional structur-
al features will accompany the report
which is now in preparation by the
geological survey. This report will
describe in detail the geology Of the
region with special reference to oil,
and it is expected that it will be ready
for distribution within 6 or s months.
The location of the most important
anticline as noted above, is made pub
lie hy the survey at this time in order
that land owners in the region and
drillers may be put in possession
of this information with the least pos
sible delay No assurance can be Civ
en- that the anticline contains oil. It
is, however. as regards its structure,
more favorable to oil accumulation
than any other in the field examined
and deserves first consideration when
drilling in the area is undertaken.
