A represe NATIVE Of the Hum

returned from an inspection trip lu
tho Billings oil fields in the NlclnliN
II township "a. range ! west where
the company owns very Niludht'
block consisting of 5000 acres, IN
which the Mid-Co Petroleum com
many also has an interest. The Mid

three wells in this area. which arc
ali located in tho west half OF the
sou'hwest of 9-24-lw, being the Rob
or,son No s. which is at present
down to l,O45 feet; No. IA on the
same lease is spudding, while No. -
IS drilling at 1895 feet well No. 3,
which is operated Jointly by the
lmmphreys and Mld-Co. is a rig.
In addition TO the above men
toned tcs there Is a producing well
located in the southwest corner OF
said tract. which Is at present max
ing 500 barrels daily. This is the
Robertson No. 7, which had an mi
ttsI production of 500 barrels, and
owing to the fact that the well Is
now two months old, the sand seems
TO be holding up exceptionally good.
Tho wilkins No. 10 In 3O-2i-l, which
belongs to the Humphreys Mid-Co
people. which came in last November
and which was the first producing
well on this tract. Is still making a
daily average Of I25 barrels. The
initial production of this well was
200 barrels. which is another indica-
ton of the splendid way the sands
are holding up.
