in section 22 offsetting the Producers
Oil company on the west and they
are also having power plant built

to know that some of the old leases
in the field are increasing in produc-
ton and the field is looking better
now than it has for several months.
Pipe line people are agreed upon
recent reports that the Healdton field
is increasing in production. 1t is

A Healdton drilling contractor SAYS
Healdton will be very busy fell
during the entire summer months, #
casing can be had and if supply

outlook is not very promising now,

very scarce, and it is probable that
