rhe Big Anticline Company is for
tunate in having protected itself with
plenty of acreage around its Marrow
well. one thousand acres was secured
before the well was started. The drill
ing of this well and the four others in
the immediate neighborhood have in
creased lease values tremendously.

MARLOW, okla. Feb "a gem

prevails throughout this section OF

pending developments in the Big
Anticline Company well west cf town.
Before this location was made geolo-
giSts traced out the formations care
fully and forecast almost exactly every
strata so far encountered. 1t was
their opinion that nothing big would
be found at less than 1900 feet. The
two previous shOwnCs of gas and oil
so far found have built up confidence
In their prediction that a big pay sand
would be found AT about ! 500 feet
The drill has now reached depth OF
1,iG0 feet and the whole country Is
virtually holding its breath. waiting
the news Of a eusher strike. Within
five miles Of this well. four others are
drilling Among them is that of the
Wichita Natural Company. This conf
pany was the one that within the
past year brought in the sensational
Augusta, Kansas, field If their
hunch about Stephens county proves
as good as the-sne on Augusta there
should be another great oil field pro-
vided within a few weeks. or II the
Zig Anticline well should come in
sooner. In the meantime the drillers
are WORKING WIN 1eNerlSn ndSte on
the Anticline well. The formation i'm
which the drill is travelling looks ex-
ccptionally good and it is believed they
are now very near to the cap-roclt
which is thought to imprison gusher
oil beneath. A few hours may tell the
tale and again it may take from ten
days to two or three weeks; but with
I'm a very short time some of the big
