field for the past week, was here
last night en- route to his home at
Ponca City, and expects to return to-
morrow. The refinery at Gainesville
is ready to run, and one engine and
one pump have been moved to, the
site of the pump station in section >
in the Healdton field, and the com
pany will be ready to begin making
oil runs by the first of November.
Another pump, which weighs 20 tons,
is on the tracks at Ringing and can
not be moved out as long as the roads
are as soft as they are now, but the
company, with one unit installed at
the pump station, will be able to
make oil runs while the big piece of
machinery is being installed.

GRAFTON of the Crystal properties in
