Sold Missouri Ranch

Col. j. G. Adkins, who left here
some months ago for southeast Miss
ouri, where he purchased a large acre
age in the Mississippi bottom, has re-
turned to Ardmore, having sold his
Missouri holdings Colonel Adkins
states that the back waters covered
his lands and he had to travel to
mill and to the post office and tele-
graph station by boat. He says that
the mosquitoes were as big as black
birds, as numerous as the sands of the
sea and fought like mountain lions.
that labor was out of the question 10
develop a farm or to market timber,
that it cost him $50 an acre TO clear
lands that ought to be put in a state
Of cultivation for SIS; that his lands
could be drained nicely in dry weather.
but during the rainy seasons he would
have to provide his cattle and hogs
with life preservers and as it was u
tedious job to teach the little pigs and
lambs to use these he abandoned the
idea Of developing a big farm in the
bottom of the Mississippi, returned TO
Ardmore to make this a permanent
headquarters. His first work will be 10
go to Sulphur to take the baths for
mosquito bites, and after his recovery
he will be back here to play at the oil
game. Colonel Adkins has done well in
oil investments in both Oklahoma AMI
Texas. He has the respect and con-
fidence of every man who has ever
dealt with him and he lives in the
affection of hundreds of producers who
know him intimately. Ardmore will be
glad he is here. he is progressive and
will be a factor in oil development in
this country. He has disposed OF all
his water rights and his mosquito
ranch in Missouri and will make invest
ments in this country among his
good friends.

estimated as high as fifteen million
feet. When the gas sand was struck

Celebrates FIRST Anniversary

The Hewitt oil field located 16 miles
west of Ardmore in Carter county
is now one year old and during this
l2-mouth period it has grown into
the greatest oil field in the state.
Hewitt now has rs producing wells.
"A rigs are up waiting for tools to
be moved in. and the field has $50
drilling wells.
The production is 25 600 barrels a
day, which is an average to the well
of 336 barrels. The field is giving
up daily oil that brings sss,6OO.
An average production of more
than 200 barrels to the well has been
unknown heretofore in the fields Of
the state.
Oklahoma has had many sensational
wells but these wells have been some
what isolated. other wells drilled
about them have been small, but the
general average at Hewitt is some
what remarkable and unusual.
The following sections in township
4 south and range west, are now
producing oil.
Section %, 27, 90, 81, %, 16, 1G
and wells are drilling in 25, "a, and
II which promise to widen the area
OF the field. The farthest well to the
northwest located in 16, 4s-2w Is
making 45O barrels and it is not
known how much farther the field
will extend in that direction.
The field has not been defined on
the east, northeast north. northwest
and west. No dry holes in these
directions have been drilled and no
man can estimate the area of the field
al this time.
The sands are thick. they produce
naturally, meaning that no shots have
been used, there is a general lack
Of pressure and the field gives every
evidence of being a field that will
produce for many years. Producers
are protecting the field from water
and common sense is being used III
the drilling of wells.
The field has not produced enough
gas to be used as fuel for the drill
ing of wells and oil is being used
Some OF the leases produce their own
fuel-gas, but as rule oil is being
used as fuel
The field is amply provided with
ripe line capacity. no producers arc
forced to buy steel storage, as 9
market is provided every day foi
the full capacity Of the wells.
Oil is found at different depths
ranging from 1900 to $500 feet, anC
some Of the producers are drilling
what are called twin wells and pro
ducing oil from the different sands
With the large number Of strings o
tools in operation it is very probable
that within the second year of th'
field the production will go to 100000
barrels q Gay.
