 THREE FIELDS

FORT WORTH, Tex, Nov. 1.- There was found by careful check to be 6S0 well in Ranger Desde- mona and Stephens county fields. producing a total of 139,OOO barrels of oil daily during the first week of October.
 Ranger has BIO wells with a pro- duction of G4,0OO barrels; Desdemo- na 175 wells with a total production of 30, 800 barrels. daily and the vari- ous fields in Stephens county had 195 wells with delivery of 44,5O0 barrels of oil every 24 hours.
 Fifteen new wells were drilled to the sand during the last 15 days in September in the Ranger field; 16 in Desdemona and four, in Stephens county during the same period. Ran ger scored only three dry holes, Des- demona seven and Stephens one. Several wells were drilled in each field to the sand depth, but were not brought in because of no trans portation facilities to remove the oil Wet weather also delayed oper- ations in all three fields, particular ly in Stephens county, where there are, no railroads and all material is hauled by trucks and teams. If it were possible to take all the oil be- ing produced in the three big fields the daily production figures would be materially increased above 139, ,000 barrels.
