FOUR OIL WELLS SURPASS
RECORDS.

Shreveport, La, Jan. All
records in the history of light oil
production went by the board
TUESDAY when the Claiborne field
yielded four wells making initial
production of more than $4,000
barrels a day. Included in the
gushers is a new world wonder
which made 10000 on completion,
according to the guage. Another
lnew well made 27,500 per day by
/ the guage, while third came in
with an estimated flow of 10000
barrels. ~
Gilliland & Faster are the pro
ducers who got three of the wells,
including the new world wonder
They started the day with bring
inc in their jackson No. 5 in 24-
21-7. making 700 barrels from the
shallow sand at 1890 feet. They
followed up this success with
their Cakes No. 10 in 30-21-7,
making 10000 barrels from the
deep sand at 258 feet. Then Gal
liland and Foster topped all rec
ords bv completing their Shaw No.
AS in 30-21-7, which came in with
an initial production of 10000 bar
rels.
The new gusher ran wild and
the drillers were obliged to work
all day to get it under control. 1t
is the first instance on record
where well has resisted all eff
forts to control it for nearly
twelve hours. The well marks
the furthest southwest producer.
The Gulf Refining Company
completed perfect day by bring
ing in their chatham No. s in 30
PIT, on the center of the south
line of the section. The well was
left open few hours and then
shut in as there was not sufficient
tankaoe on hand to take care of
the oil. During this time it
gagged at 27,450 barrels per day.
The production was found in the
deep sand at 1000 feet.
Gulf Refining Company today
posted advances on North Louisi-
ana crudes, effective at Z O'Clock
in the morning Of date of notice,
that advances are 25c on each bar
rel Of crude. The new quotations
follow: Caddo light, So; Caddo
heavy, $3.50; DeSoto $3.50; Bull
Bayou, 1855; Red River, $3.50.

nothing better than let them take
advantage of the journey.

ties and comforts. Full details
covering Aeverv phase of the tour

the trip. The selection of the
boys will be left to those inter
ested in each parish. without any
suggestions from me. The ex-
penses will be about $4,000. [
,thisk. for each boy. There will be
found farmers in every parish who
will be delighted to give their sons
this vacation and to pay all Of
their expenses; there are public

parish who will be glad to contri-
butte from fifty to one hundred
