IN CUSHING WILL
REACH HIGH MARK THIS WEEK
Thursday Total Was 260, 900 Barrels
5000 Less Than the Highest
Day, December 10.

The last week has been one Of ac-
tiVity in the oil situation at Cushing,
especially the north end, and more
particularly on the leases Of the Nc
Man Oil company. Last Monday the
total production of the field in the
Bartlesville sand was 243,074 barrels,
and on Thursday It had reached more
than two hundred and sixty thousand
barrels, lacking only 1000 barrels Of
reaching the banner day Of the field,
December 10, when it reached 263,S9O
barrels.
Until last Thursday there had been
a gradual decline since the 10th, not
withstanding the fact that 23 wells
had been drilled in, one of them, that
Of the Producers, on the Mabel Dale,
being reported to be good for 5000
barrels. and which now is reported to
be making between six thousand and
twelve thousand barrels a day. This
well has not been gauged, and IL is
impossible to give correct data, but
suffice II to say that 1t is an extremely
big producer.
The Mc-Man had drilled in four wells
since the report Of production of
Thursday, and unless the declination
reaches more than twelve thousand
barrels since that date. the production
est figure in it's history.
The Mc-Man company Friday even
ing brought in Nos. ! and on the
Vida Way. both Of which were big
wells, making more than three thou
sand barrels each, bringing the total
of this one lease of 1870 acres up to
1900 barrels a day Their total pro-
duction in the Bartlesville sand alone
now is close TO sixty thousand barrels
a day, and all oil is being cared for
in tanks and the three pipe lines which
this COMPANY Supplies. The contract
for four tanks Of $4,000 barrels ca
pacity is still in vogue. and 1t is not
believed any oil will be lost
1t Is the consensus of opinion that
this week will reach the biggest in the
history of the Cushing field, and that
beginning Monday there will be a
gradual decline, regardless of the
number of wells drilled in.
The greater part Of those wells
which had been on top OF the pay
sand since before Christmas now have
been drilled in.

rels, on the center of the north line
of the Mollie Jones. No. on this
lease is in the oil sand. with the tools
in the bottom Of the hole.

is and 22 on the Musselman are Bar
