North OF Bristow.

A dispatch from Bristow says that
the Fox test in 15-16-17. north OF
Bristow and five miles south of the
Gushing pool. is making 1000 barrels
from the Jones or Layton sand. after
passing out of the upper sand, In
which water and oil were mixed. and
getting the real pay below a thin
break.
Later reports from the well direct
cut down these figures by half. but
agree that the well Is a fine producer
and good for perhaps four to five
hundred barrels.
This well is in a township without
other production. and the nearest dry
hole Is about two miles and a half
southeast II Is doubly important
from the fact that the producing sand
is one OF the good upper sands at
Cushing The Bartlesville sand will
unquestionably be found under the
Fox WELL though only a test will tell
its possibilities in oil.
