Love County Test

different parts Of the county to drill

drilled will be ON Bruce Helton's place

proposition for the uplift of humanity
or for the good of Ardmore, and that in
his opinion the carpenters would give
this movement every cooperation.
X. X. Kelley also made an enthusl-

carpenters would do more, according
to their wealth, than any other craft
or any other class Of business in the

President Henry W. Tuttle of King

September 30.
The annual meeting date was post
poned two weeks, in order to afford the

circumstances also, the committee
thought it wise to postpone the date.
Several members will not return from
summer vacations until the last week
in the month; President Wilson viii
visit Oklahoma next week; the hot
weather lasted overtime the Carter
county fair had right.ofway last week
all combined to make pOstponement
desirable in the opinion of the commit

there will be no further postponement,"

President Ramsey Of the Chamber of

GOOD PRODUCTION IS

The Fox district, located one town
ship north OF the ElealdtOn fields. is
more Interesting at this time than since
the first big gas wells were brought in
in that district some years ago Deep.
or drilling is being done, and the
chances are good that an important field
will be opened up in that locality. One
of the visitors to this district stated
last night That Fox had been discredited
by II series OF failures and small pro.
Gucing Eells, coupled with the expense
of drilling, but that some of these
days an important oil area would he
opened up there, and those who had
been knocking the district would be
complaining at themselves for not max
ing purchases instead of inGulging in
knocking.

The Magnolia Petroleum Company is

The Gypsy Oil Company is drilling

that one or more of these drilling wells
will drop into an important Oilbearing
sand.
1t is said that the gas producing sands
in the Fox district are the thCkest ever
found in any field in the world.
Some wells in that district had an i'll
itill production of as much rs 100, 900
cubic feet of gas, and where such pro.
life gas sands are f0und il does seem
reasonable to believe that the persistent
drilling campaign that has been carried
ON there will open up an important oil
area.
And the chances are very good that
one or more important sands will be
found within the next week or ten days.
