CARTER COUNTY OWES Z
GASSERS AND | GUSHER
TO GRAHAM FIELD NEW
PRODUCTION THURSDAY

Graham's gift to Carter county, yes
terday, was one oil gusher and TWO
gas wells. Much interest was mani
tested in the reports from that town
yesterday afternoon
The Oklahoma Fox Oil Company
on the Marion Pierce farm, in sec
lion Z. 2s2w, drilled into the oil
sand in well No. on that farm
The depth is something like 2'S'o
feet and the report that came from
the we'll stated that it was flowing
every 80 minutes. 1t has the appear
ance of being the best well that
has been drilled in that section
of the county. Earl Athey is the
contractor on this well.
Kirk Oil and Gas Company No. 3,
on the Henry Bennett farm, in sec
tion 81, 2s.2w. in the Graham district
reached gas sand at depth of l.
546 feet. The gas pressure was suf-
fcient TO clean the we'll as soon as
the sand was entered and it gives ev-
cry promise of being a good gasser.
This well is coo feet to the south
west Of the first we'll drilled on this
farm. The level of the sands had been
passed and the company was in a
mood to order an abandonment when
the sand was reached. Only a few
feet more would have been drilled
at this time if the sand had not
been found.
Britannia Oil Company on the Fow
Ter farm, in section 81 2s-2w, has
reached gas sand at a depth o!
9l7 feet The outside casing is be
ing pulled and when that is done
the sand will be drilled into. 1t can
not be determined yet what the pro
duction will be.
