THE GRAHAM FIELD
Oil Lies Beneath the Red Beds. Two
New Wells Going Down.

The Observation-Disclosures Oil Com
pany In section 7-2-2, north OF the Wild
Cat Jim we'll is drilling today in the
red beds at depth of 750 feet. The
we'll is being drilled by Earl Athey
who drilled the Wild Cat Jim well.
The drill is expected to stay in the
red beds until the oil sand is found.
That field is like the one at Oil City,
located southeast of it. The oil sand
is found beneath the red beds. The oil
is expected at a depth of about 1880
feet. Several persons from Waurika
we're in the Graham fields yesterday.
Also Purcell parties have recently ac-
pired some interests there, and II is
probable that other wells will be
started soon. The Chafee well located
southwest of the well in 1922 is drill
ing at about 500 feet. An old style
drilling machine is being used, and
progress is not being made very fast.
The Chafee well is located in section
2-2-3 near the B. C. Rickets property

THE HEALDTON SANDS
Sands are Thicker than Those at Glen
Pool or Cushing.

II. II. Fenton who is here in the in
terest of the Jarecki Manufacturing
Company, and who has spent several
yeeks in the field, says that HealdtOn
las the thickest oil sands of any field
n the United States east of the Rocky
Mountains. In section 6, sands have
been found which had a thickness of
more than $50 feet, which is unusual
in oil fields. w. c. Skelley in speak
ing of the sands said that in Ohio
they do not expect to find sand more
than II feet thick, and expressed sur
prise at the thickness of the sand on
eases which he owns at Healdton.
-. Skelly is now drilling a well in
the area of thick sands and he will
have a test made of the sands every
% feet to ascertain if these sands pro-
iuce oil all the way through. Many
oil men are of the opinion that the
Healdton field will be producing oil
from these sands for period of 40
years or longer.
