CARRIER, Okla, May l8.-The past

field, new locations in likely terri
tory, and this western district is
seeing more and more activity each

the district including the Billings

day OF this high gravity oil or l4O,-

In the shallow district four miles

in that section at the present and i.
IS learned that at least three more

i'ext three or four weeks.
Miami Record Herald: All spec
rlation as to the probable over-pro-
ddction OF zinc concentrates is
passed. There was new form Of
camouAage foisted upon the un-
thinking investor and mining man
who knew little of the devious ways
of the sol-called zinc trust. The
truth is that, within short TING,
his field will show greater activity
than ever before in its history.
There will be larger and better mills
bailt during the coming year than
at any time since the Picher-Tar
River Century fields were opened.
1t is estimated that something
like 240 mills in the Miami district
arc either completed or nearing
completion, and it is safe to say
trat this number will be doubled
before the end OF 1910. The new
mills, however, to be built, will be
larger and more modern than those
a'ready built. This means larger

mills yet to be erected.

Miami District News: Work on
the new mill for the Sunhower Com
pany will be begun at once. This
company has good showing in sew
eral drill holes on its lease and tn:
assay is very satisfactory, running
from 4 to per cent.
The ore is found at a compara-
lively shallow depth and the ground
IS easy to work. The drill cuttings
from several holes indicate the.
have very fair body of ore and, as
It is easy to mine, will prove gooi
mine.
The ore is found at an average
Gepth of $50 feet and is free milling
end the absence of heavy watei
makes the proposition look easy.
This lease consists OF 40 acres west
Of Baxter Springs on the state line.
Several good mines are being oper-
ated in close juXtapoSition to the
Sunflower.
Drilling northeast OF Miami is be-
ing done in three different places
ond indications point to an early de-
yelopment of good body of ore. In
one drill hole at the l60-foot level
Good shines nave been washes from
the drill cuttings, and as the shines
showed in good rock, the drillers
are encouraged to believe that
good body of ore will be encount-
cred there before long.
In the drilling out of unproven
territory it sometimes takes months
o hard work to locate the ore. But
once the body has been found, then
It is no trouble to trace the vein OF
lead.
For years drilling in an Indifferent
manner has been carried on in that
section, but no real effort like the
present one has been made to locate
the ore body. 1t is reasonable 20
suppose that as good body of ore
can be found in that section as far
ther north.
The lay of .he land is similar as
mat surrounding Tar River or Qua
paw, and for this reason the drilling
has been inaugurated.
Out west of Commerce, near the |
river, drilling IS going forward at
ncst satisfactory rate and many
new bodies OF ore have been
-ouched. The limestone bar that
raS been found in several places
here has been proven very thin ami
S no bar to the ore trend. At the
900-foot level a good body of ore
IaS been encountered and when the
lrillerS have proSpected the lease
loroughly, a shaft will be sunk,
nd the real mineral possibilities OF
hat section will be known.
West of the river many outcrop-
hgs have been found, but no real
fort has been made to see whether
here might be a body of ore worth
\ crking or not. Many acres of
and has been under lease in that
ection for some time but in the
most cases the lease has been for
cited and are now subject to leaS-
ng again. There can be no queS-
iCn, say experienced drill men, but
Tat an immense body of mineral
viii be found to the west OF the
commerce field, as the trend of tn
nd is favorable in that direction.

Oil Production Not Equal to
Demand.

Dallas News: 1t has been point
ed out bv the oil division OF the
Federal Fuel Administration that
the amount OF crude oil now IN
storage in the United States IS ade-
auate for only six months supply
a. the present rate OF use. OF course
production is going on all the time.
but it is not equal TO the demani.
Consequently the reserve OF crude
oil is growing smaller all the while.
1t has been estimated by competent
authorities that the total production
now from the 100000 oil wells oi
the United States Is SO0OOO.ouO bar
rels 4 year. Requirements are eN-
pected soon to be +2SOOO.O0J bar
rels wear. This Is the situation
that has stimulated drilling. 1t Is
the situation that makes Tor cNpec-
taiion of increase IN the price OF
crude. 1t is also the situation that
imports the hope OF operators THAI
adequate supplies viii bc made
available for development OF the oil
business. q
The great oil field OF the United
States is that Of Kansas. Oklahoma
and Texas. These states have 9I.-
600 wells producing about 10000
barrels OF crude day. This Is about
10000 barrels a day less than the
production in October OF last year
However. the North Louisiana field
last week reported an increase over
the preceding month OF about Is
600 barrels a day. The Ranger field
is promising to be a great pool and
expectations are based upon thi,
field increasing the production to
point near the demand.
The nextlargest field in the Unit
ed States is that of California, where
800 wells are yielding nearly o.
0D, 900 barrels a year. But this field
also is less productive than last year.

The week just passed has been
quiet in the oil fields surrounding
Ardmore. No new big production
has come in, though the Wag- Mar
and the Ruby Petroleum tests IN
section 25 4s3w are both about due
to reach the Westheimer sands, pro-
viding the trend OF the sand hes 10
the south or southwest. " hen these
wells have reached OF passed the
level of the sands, the discovery well
will have been quite thoroughly sur
rounded by test holes, all OF which,
except the McKees well, which Is
a direct offset, and the two tests
mentioned above and not yet com
pleted, have failed to get the sands.
The lokla. in section "a was thought
to be in the sand. and evidently was
in the edge, but had only about one
foot of the sand that brings the big
production as found in the RoNant
and Macs wells. If the Wag- Ma1
and Ruby Pertoluem tests fail to get
the sand it will practically prove
this Westheimer sand to be confined
to a small area. The Coline well in
section I 4s3w. is proving a better
producer than was expected OF 1t.
1t is producing 400 barrels from
three sands, as follows; Us to VoO
feet; 900 to 9S5 feet, and LOSS 10
1000 feet. The Iokla we'll in sec
ton 3 4s3w, has fallen off both in
production and gravity of oil, and
is now making about 100 barrels
daily Of 81 II gravity. The Kirk
gas well in section 81 2s2w has been
shut in and the gas will be used for
fuel in drilling other wells III that
district. The Bigheart No ) in sec
ton l3 2s4w, is the latest from that
section, and according to reports,
the best well to date in the - coun-
try. At 49, feet this well has an oil
sand estimated good for better than
$50 barrels, and above that are three
gas sands with pressure varying IN
the, different sands from l,OOOOOO
feet to 100000 feet. The gas has
been bradenheaded. The Neldun,
in section p ls5w, found gas sand
with 100000 feet pressure at about
500 feet. Gradually the structure a,
outlined by the geologists, running
northwesterly from the Wheeler
field through the Graham and Fox
countries, and extending up into
northern Stephens county, Is being
proven productive OF oil and gas.
The Bayou-l9ll and the Reelinc
companies will soon be drilling in
the "a country. and that will un-
doubtedly be busy field this com
lng summer.
