High Costs Affects
Oil Production in
Gulf Coast Fields

Houston, Texas, Aug. 1S.-With
scarcely any producing compilations
outside of the Gulf we'll at Hull in
the last week, the new production, in
the oil fields of the gulf coast country
in territory adjacent to Houston was
practically negligible quantity. The
slump in drilling operations is part
" seasonal, many wells having shut
down for the hot season, but it Is
more directly due to the low prices
of costal crude at the wells.
Producers say they cannot afford
TO drill new wells at the prices they
are getting for crude, rs cents per
barrel at West Columbia and ST per
barrel in other fields. They say that
It costs them more than they are
getting for the production and that
either the prices of material and Ia
Dor must come down or the prices OF
crude be advanced, or they will not
only be compelled to suspend all drill
ing operations and defer starting new
tests. but may even be forced to shut
down leases with small bumpers.
AS wages in the fields were recent
w increased so cents per day to all
classes of oil field labor with the eX-
ception of drillers, which was adj
vanced $25 month, there is no like

Two Wells Watched.
In the extreme northeastern part
of the Burkburnett field two Wells
are being watched closely and are ex-
pected daily. They are the Waurlka
No. 2 and the Falcon. Both wells
have been on the sand for weeks,
casing has been set and latest re-
ports showed, that star rigs were
being installed for drilling IN the
wells.
The Waurika No. 1 is considered
by many the biggest we'll in che whole
of the Burkburnett field. The
trouble has been in saving the oil
The rig was destroyed by fire when
the we'll blew in and for days the
oil ran out onto the ground and was
lost, the flow coming so strong that
even earthern storage could not be
prepared quickly enough to hold the
oil. Several thousand barrels of OIL
were lost. It is estimated now that II
the well could be allowed 70 produce
to it's maximum it would be good for
between 5000 and 1000 larre's.

it is practically already proven that
production approaches the south
bank of the river over wide stretch
of territory. Whether it crosses the
river or how far it may extend unto
Oklahoma is still a matter of guess
work.
Showing of Oil Reported
A few weeks ago one or two Of the
tests in Oklahoma were reported to
have had showings of oil, but so far
none of them have developed any
thing worth while or at least moth
ing that the wildcatter has consider

Probably none of the tests in Till

Oklahoma has been holding its own

shown indications of losing confidence
in Tillman county because of the slow
progress made on the tests. However.

OIL RESURRECTS:

formation.

Ardmore, Okla, Aug. 23-Three
months ago the town of Hewitt pre-
scented to all intents and purposes a
true picture of Goldsmith's Desert
cd Village"
In fact, most of the buildings had
been moved from the original town
site to the newer Wilson, established
by the Ringing interests, one mile to
the west.
A few struggling, tumble-down
shacks were left and one or two old
timers who were too stubborn, or too
loyal, to the old burg to move, re-
manned and did their best to maintain
a semblance of what had once been
Hewitt's glory.
But these loyal ones led a precari-
Gus existence and it required no phil
osopher to see that their days, like
the days of the old town, were num-
bered.
And then one morning, suddenly
and as persistently as the flashes of
summer heat lightning, news began
to trickle from invisible sources that
the oil well, located some months pre-
viously one mile to the north of Hew-
it,, had struck pay.
But little credence was given the
rumor at first, as it had been prac-
tically conceded by the wise oil men
that the owners of that particular
property were sinking their money
. fast in a choice collection of post
holes, as in their opinion they would
never get oil enough out of that well
to grease baby buggy.
That was merely the guess Of an
expert, however, and the owners of
that particular property situated in
section ~, 4s-2m, had another opin-
ion altogether, and theirs was that
they would strike oil and strike it big
The Well Comes In.
And their faith was justified, as
was proven when, as stated above
one Sabbath morning the news flash
ed to Ardmore that the Texas well
on the Smith property, had come in
as gusher, and oil was shooting
over the derrick every few moments
Ardmore parties who had beer
watching the progress of the well
and many, by the way, who had pre-
viously sunk few golden dollars in
what was termed the southeast ex-
tension to the Healdton field" yeal
or so ago, began to take notice. Wher
the rumor become SO persistent
many of them foreswore the weekly
duty of church and Sunday school at
tendance upon this particular occa.
sion and held themselves to the new
WELL.
Upon arriving they found wildcat
rumors verified and then some; they
found oil actually shooting over the
derrick, every few moments, and thai
the same experts who few moments
previously had predicted a buster
were estimating that it was the big
gest we'll ever found in Carter coun
ty.
Oil operators in Ardmore and sur
rounding territory went wild" thai

in the parlance Of the game, and leas'
contracts began to float through thu

the Texas court OF criminal appeals
today, and the case rcmanded to the

IN THE CHEST
Thedford's Black Draught, Says Ken
lucky Lady, Is Excellent For
Breaking Up a Cold.

Elgin, Ky.-Mrs. Albert Albright
who has lived here many years, says:
II use Black Draught as a laxative.
1t is splendid. for breaking up colds
| have used it for a bad cold and
tightness in the chest. One cup OF
warm tea made from Black-Draught
l found most helpful. 1t makes the
liver act and gives almost instan re-
lief.
This spring my little daughter be-
gan having chills, the hard, shaking
kind. After the chills her fever would
rise and her head would ache. We are
a good ways from the doctor. so |
just began giving her good doses of
Black Draught and it cured her. She
is in good health, has a good color,
and her appetite is all right. So OF
course we consider Black-Draught as
unsurpassed for a. family medicine. ;"
Don't wait until you have headache,
sick stomach, Indigestion, or other
disagreeable symptoms, but take an
occasional dose of Black-Draught to
help keep your system free from
poison, your body IN good health.
Made from purely vegetable in
gradients, Black Draught acts in a
gentle, natural way, and has no bad
after-effects. 1t may be safely taken
by young and old.
