Mr.. j. s. Suttle who for soy.
eral months has been engaged
actively in the oil developing bus
mess in the Ansc La Butte field
in our ncighboring Parish of st
Martin. will very soon lcav,
for New York where he hopes tc
interest some capitalists in drill
ling for oil in Iberia Parish where
there is said to be some splendid
Indications for successful wells
The gentleman has already OBJ
tanned a large number Of options
throughout iberia and feels as
sured drilling will be commenced
by those who will advance the
money before many months,
Those Of our land owners who
have any indications whatever
would do well to give Mr.. Suttlc
all the encouragement possible
in order that he can interest the
capitalists in trying to make Inc.
ria a proven oil field. From what
we learn there is many spots in
this Parish that show splendid in
dications Of having oil and there
is only one way to accomplish
this long cherished desire and
that is by putting down test
wells. It is hoped Mr.. Suttle will
succeed in getting some moneycd
men to make the experiment dur.
ing the present year.
