UEALDTON-Th Fox district looks
more like an oil area today than 1t has
ever looked before and without doubt
il is the most interesting section OF
the Mid-Continent fields The GYPSY
Oil company on the Pierce farm IN
the northwest corner OF the northeast
quarter OF 1928 went into sand
that is making both oil and gas. Inc
sand has been penetrated at depth OF
2 feet. The well sprayed oil all day
Yesterday and visitors could not get
very close to the location. The S-inch
casing will be lowered, tanks will be
moved in and the sand will be pene-
trated with the drill. Oil men are
certain that 1t will be "A well, but just
how much it will make no one knows.
The oil at Fox is of "A better grade than
Uealdton crude. The production has
been tested for gasoline properties
and makes about l6 per cent, while 1t
is said that Healdton makes about IL
per cent. For distance of more than
a mile in length there is oil and gas
production at Fox and farther to the
southeast in 2-33 George w. Chaffee
is drilling a likely looking well at
2,0l5 feet. This well is shut down with
lugs lost in the hole and friends Of the

to move in standard rig, underream
the larger casing down and make a
good test of the location. In return
they will ask no interest in the well
and ask no concessions from Mr..
Chaffee. BY his patience Mr. Chat
fee has won the hearts of the men Of
the local fraternity and they are will
ing to help him out and make good
test of his location which they think
well OF. The sand found in the Pierce
well makes the location of the Hick-
man oil company look much better.
These people have their locations made
I'm the northeast corner of the south
half of the southwest quarter of 49,
2-3 and tools are now being moved in.
Local people are interested in the fee
of the Pierce lands where the new well
IS being drilled in. Roy NJ Johnson
owns one-fourth of the fee in the Co
acre tract and another fourth be-
longs to Walter Cant, N. b. Feagin
and L. S. Dolman.

The Southwestern Petroleum COM

the ncighborhood of 115 barrels per

is a big man and has an income all
told of something like $l,000.0O0 per

to visit Tulsa in the near future and
would certainly find welcome here
were he to locate and operate from
this town. 1t is the home of the big
oil man.

The new record breaking pool at
Towando, Kan. seven miles west of
Eldorado, Kan, that has been at
tracing so much attention is still the
center OF interest. The four wells
ofisetting each other have the largest
INITIAL production of any four offset
wells ever drilled in the Mid-Conti-
nent field.
Hugh S. Hale, president of the Eu-
reka Oil * Gas Co., was at one
uine conductor on the Frisco and
his run terminated at Tulsa when
this town was the end of the road
After 10 years in the service of the
railroad company he decided to get
into the oil game on his own hook
and Is now the head of the Eureka
concern, which controls the gas fields
ana supplies gas to the various
manufacturers in Neodesha and
Cherryvale. Kan. Mr. Hale owns
three-quarters Of the Eureka oil
company, which in turn owns a half
interest in the Trapshooters Oil COM
pany
The Trapshooters No started at
the town Of Healdton. Five stills
have been moved TO the site, the first
still is being set today, the company's
office building and Toulouse has been
built, material for the light plant has
been received and a contract has been
secured for as much as 1000 barrels
OF oil a day. n. a. Jennings is presi-
dent and manager OF the company
and C. V. Miller is secretary-tre
urer.

1900 barrels and thereby stirred up
the biggest bunch of excitement ever
experienced in the Mid Continent
field. The name Trapshooters Will
do to conjure with. II get its name
from the fact that "A bunch of trap
shooters attending shoot near Ell
dorado threw in 500 each, $500 in
all, and took the lease in the west
half of the northwest of 11-26-4. Not
having the coin to develop the lease
they sold half interest to Mr.. Hale
for $4,000 cash and 100000 in oil,
all of which has now been paid.
The well at the upper right hand
corner is the Trapshooters No. 2
flowing into tank and from thence
into earthen storage.
The well on the upper left hand
corner is the Carter OIL companys
well on the Orban farm, which start
ed at about the same rate as the
Ira apshooters, but is now making
more oil and is rated as making TO-,
600 barrels today, while the Trap
shooters has fallen to something like
1000 barrels.
