the only opportunity they have ever

Much interest continues to be mani
Tested in the Producers Oil com
pany's well in section 22-4-3. An
experienced oil man who visited the
well and who made as thorough an
investigation as could be made, is OF
the opinion that it will make from
fifty to seventy-fve barrels. The
shallownoss of the sand GO5O feeD
and the production of OIL which
seems to be larger than the Other
wells in that direction from the field
are very encouraging features, and il
is probable that the area around that
well will give IN much oil.

6. G NJ. Oil Company.

5. & NJ. Oil company on its ten

hours. The company has two wells
now on the ten-acre tract, and for
the present will not do any more
drilling.

Salt water was encountered at 1245,
the well was drilled to a total depth
of 1907 feet and abandoned. The
drill went from salt water sand back
into shale, and owners in that portion
of the field feel hopeful that a deep
test will reach a lower pay sand.

Del, the base of the explorations. The
region to which DIR. Rice and the scien-
lists accompanying him are to give
their attention is bounded on the north
by the Guaviare river. ON the west by
the Andes, on the south by the Ca
quota river and on the east by the Rio
Negro. The territory included in the
plan comprises parts of Brazil, Vene-
zuela and Colombia.
DR.. Rice has mapped about 100000
square miles of this region. He pro-
poses to make a survey of the tribu-
taries of the Rio Negro and to COM
plete as nearly as he can the maps of
enormous tracts yet practically unex-
plored.
So well equipped is this expedition
that 1t is expected that it will accom-
plish more work in the six months it
will be away than could be done in
twice that period under ordinary con-
1itions The yacht Alberta is In her
self veritable floating citadel armed
against trouble. One Of the plaques
Of tropical South America comes from
the insects. There are many flies and
mosquitoes that inflict painful bites
and cause disease. To ward off the
flying pests Dr. Rice has had the AL
berta equipped with rustproof screens
of fine copper mesh, so that every
deck and every port hole will be pro-
tected.
There are other insects TO be guarded
against, among them various kinds Of
ants. One of the worst of them is the
leaf-eutting ant, the sauba, which will
eat 6B the ordinary tarletan mosquito
net as though IT were so much cobweb.
In the account of one of his previous
expeditions DIR. Rice tells how the ants
devoured not only a mosquito net. but
pair of trousers and the pockets Of
his coat. The tabano or blood sucking
fly is a menace to life in this part Of
the Amazon basin. The chigoS burrow
into the skin and cause intense suffer
ing. With the copper mesh screens
and with other appliances for warding
Off the insects, the party expects to re-
duce the discomfort from this source
to the minimum.
