Do WORK OVER AGAIN
Cement Fails to Hold in Crescent
Well-Must Be Replaced.

Failure of the cement forced
Iaround the casing at the bottom of
the Crescent we'll to shut off the
water flowing in from above pre-
vented those in charge of operations
at the we'll to bring it in last Satur-
day, as they had expected, and in
stead compelled them to re-cement
the casing, causing delay estimated
at from thre to four weeks. The
work of re-cementing was under
taken the latter part of this week.
after several days had been devoted
to cleaning as much of the mud as
possible out of the bottom of the
hole.
Three times as much cement as
was used in the first attempt is being
used this time, according to j. C.
Slater, and he and his associates say
they now will give the cement all
the time necessary to "set." adding
that this may be three or four weeks.
I'VE were too anxious and did not
give the cement time to SET" was
Slater's comment on the failure, so
the water broke through and the
we'll is in exactly the same condition
as it was before.
1--WE acted too hasty this time,"
he added, but whatever trouble we
may encounter in our future efforts,
it will not be from drilling out the
cement until in the opinion Of our
advisers the cement will hold. 1t
may take all summer to finish this
we'll, but it will be done and done
right"
