in the sand and gravel Of the quar-
tenary age.
Folding "a
Evidnce OF folding Is found along
the sides of all the previously men
toned mountains and hills. South OF
the Floridas, this is furthered, by the
dome-shaped shale, appearing above
the bolsons. Folding Is also found In
and around the village OF Dwyer,
where both shale and limstone are
seen, partly exposed. in the form OF
domes and anticllnes.
Fossils
Numerous fossils occur In the Colo
RADIO shale at all the crops. These
forms all belong to the Benton fauna.
Possibilities Of Oil
The two most favorable pctrollfic
horizons are in the Colorado shale for
nation Of the cretacious series and the
other In the Comanche-which com
prise two distinct formations; above.
the Sarten sandstone, In the lower the
Lobo formation.
After making careful study Of the
entire quadrangle the writer Spotted
In" the first drill site for the above
named company. This site Is located
between the Black and Red Mountains,
about 800 feet from the Southern Pa
cific track and about five miles from
the city Of Deming, New Mexico. II
Is located In the northeast quarter Of
the southeast quarter of section "a,
township 23 SOUTH range 10 west At
this particular site drilling should be
continued to depth of at least 5000
feet, deending mainly upon thickness
Of the bolsoBs and agglomerate.
Writer'S Note
The country which | have Just de-
scribed has favorable conditions for
the finding of oil bearing stratas SO
much depends upon the structure OF
the surface rocks that a careful study
Of the field is very essential.
Folding has taken place, and as a re-
suit anticlines, monoclines and domes
are found in this region, all Of which
play an important part Of the collect
ing Of oil to form pools.
Benton fauna are found In the Colo
RADIO shales at outcrops in numeruos
places. "These fossils have been found
in practically all the prlren fields"
Conclusions
The property to be drilled on by the
Deming- Bisbee oil x Production Com
pany has as many favorable conditions
and is as well located as any land in
Luna county, and the prospects for
striking oil seem favorable.

Geological Report Of Luna County. for
the Deming- -Bisbee Oil a Production
Company, Deming. New Mexico.


Bisbee, Ariz, June 24.-The Demlng
Quadrangle, an area slightly over one
thousand acres, Is bounded by parallels
32 degrees and ~ degrees 80 seconds,
and by meridians 107 degrees 80 Sec
onds and los degrees. This area Is the
main subject to be discussed In the fol
lowing:
North OF the company's holdings is
the Cooks Range, northwest the Black
Mountains, west the Red Mountains,
southwest the Snake and Burdick
Hills, southeast the Florida Mountains.
Each of these will be discussed sep
arately.
The Red Mountain, located about ten
miles southwest from Deming, consists
Of large white felsitic rhyolite dip
ping to the northwest. This mountain
Is entirely surrounded by bolsons OF
the quartenary age,
The Black Mountain, located about
eight miles northwest of Deming, con-
sists of thick sheet of basalt, which
caps a dark black sand Bolson also
surrounds this mountain.
The Cooks Range is continuation
of the Florida Mountains, and both be-
long to the pre-Cambrain age and con
slst mainly Of pre-Cambrain granite
and porphyry. On the sides Of these
mountains folded sedimentary beds can
be seen very plainly. Bolson also sur
rounds these mountains.
Snake Hills consist of n ridge Of
limestone which crops out across the
southern part of II. "a s., Il. w. w.
The eastern half consists of the El
Paso limestone dipping west, and the
western dips first to the west and then
Is flexed in low dome
The Burdlck Hills consist of small
masses of igneous rock, mostly rhyo-
lite and quartz porphyry. A basalt
similar to that found IN the Black
Mountain. is found on the west side of
these hills Bolson also surrounds
these hills.
Along the sides of the above de-
scribed mountains exposures Of sedi-
mentary beds can readily be seen and
can be traced fairly well from the pre-
Cambrian granite to the quartenary
bOlson.
Description Of Sedimentary Beds
Quartenary-Bo deposits consist
ing Of sand, clay and gravel, range in
thickness from few feet to several
hundred feet. Depth Of these bolsons
at the drill site is approximately 500
feet.

under this plan must advance $4,000
800 and that without the cession of the
public lands TO the state this would be
impossible.
The effort to gain this vast territory
is meeting with a great deal of oppo-
sition from individuals connected with
its administration. The conservation
of the forests is cited as an example, OF
the good to be accomplished by federal
control. But it is conceded that such
control does not make homes for the
people" aud as a consequence its de-
velopment is retarded.
