An article appeared in the Grand
Junction Daily Sentinel last Satur-
day which was incorrect in some re-
spects due to misinformation given
to said paper. The article states
that oil was being pumped at the rate
of from so to rs barrels day. As
no positive statement has been made
by those in authority as to how much
the well does produce this article
has been slightly exaggerated. The
oil is mixed with an unknown guam
tity of water which makes it impos-.
sible TO make an, exact estimate of
the amount of oil which flows. Sew
eral articles have appeared in diff
ferent papers which are not accurate.
