tables for this great crowd of workers
Out in the field the homes are entirely
| inadequate to care for the people there
and two great tent cities have been
built and field workers are camped
until better accommodations have
been provided. For several weeks in
the town of Ringing many persons
have been required to sit up the entire
night through for the reason that the
hotel and roomiug houses are made
quate to accommodate the needs of the
field.
HealdtOn field is at this time the
most active oil field in the United
States, more strings of tools are run
ming, more steel tanks are under CON
struction than in any other field in
this country, and this activity will re
main for at least one year and prob
ably two or three years.
Every siding which the Ringing
road has from Ardmore to Ringing
is filled with ears. The yards in Ard
more, in Lone Grove, in Wilson and
in Ringing are blocked with cars
of oil well supplies waiting to be un-
loaded for the field. If it is possible
for railroad company to make money.
the Ringing road is making it now.
for the reason that it is running its
lull capacity in the freight lin.
one Of the remarkable features of
the past week has been the completion
of two wells in section CAS- by the
McMan-Corsicana people which brings
the production of the McMan people
at Ilealdton to $4,000 barrels day
and there is a reasonable prospect that
within four weeks longer the McMan
people will have production of $4,000
barrels, which equals the height of that
Company's production at Gushing.
Gushing field was a revelation in its
day. 1t gave to commerce more oil
than any other similar area ever dis
covered, and oil men seemed to be un-
der the impression that there was but
one Cushing in all the world, but
there is reasonable prospect that
I1ealdton will be a greater field than
Gushing 1t seems that the shallow
sands alone will be able to give to the
world as much oil as the deeper sands
in Cushing ever gave and the deeper
sands in the Healdton field have never
been touched with the drill There has
been as much oil found in the shallow
sands that there has been no demand
for deeper drilling up to this time and
will not be for several months yet.
twenty-five teams which were ship
ped from Gushing, arrived in the field
yesterday.

something like 100 acres are in the
