II has bn the general impression
that there was practically nothing do
ing in the development line in the
north end Of the Gushing field, but n
tlip through the new Bartlesyille sand
oH,elopmcut will convince the most
skcptical that the north end IS MOI
being overlooked. In these days OF
uNerpluductiOn there does not seem
10 b, a tendency on the part Of 'usn-
ing operators to report their drlllihs
wells, and it takes a day or two IN
the pool to find cut what is dong
However, there is enough work uhdtI
way I'm the northern section to satlsiH
the most skeptical that the shutdown
is not any too effective and, should
some of the wells drilling in that To-
,ality result in large producers, II
would be difficult to estimate what
the total output of the Gushing pool
would be. There is every prospect
that another large deVeloment VIII re
sult from the work in the north enu,
known as the Dropright country, ana
the status Of the pool should De
known within . few weeks. Ihere
are seven or eight wells under way III
the vicinity OF the Mcbride well, on
the starr farm, and they VIII test

poorest on the map and an effort IS
hemg made by influential operators
to improve conditions over there.
There is some full-blood land in the

"A tank builder. and he probably did
more toward cleaning the town up
than could he done by dozen mar
shals. The operators in that country
are thoroughly disgusted with the way
the village is operated. and IN case
Mr.. Kelsey cannot proffer the neces-
sary relief it will be up to the oil men
TO take different action.
The Mcbride people are on top or
the Bartlesville sand in their No. IN
the northwest corner Of tht east half
Of the southwest quarter OF section

and n Gss-inch flow line has been con-
nected to the tank.
The Cloyerleaf oil company Is rig

in the center OF the river in that por-
,ion that cuts through the F'ixico 30
acres. which is held by the Carpathia
oil company. II is I'm section l7-lS-7.
Locations have been made for two
more wells between that one and the
well they are rigging up on the north.
