OUTLOOK FOR OIL
At TBRAWLEYWELL
is ENCOURAGING

The work of drilling for oil by the
. Imperial Valley Oil and Development
associa ton northwest of Westmoreland
which ceased temporarily, was resumed
last Monday.
The well already has been sunk 1900
feet and is absolutely perpendicular SO
true is it that the casing while suspend
ed can be turned by hand as it sets in
tho hole.
The association, which was formed
by residents of the valley for the sole
and only purpose of aScertaining once
and for all time whether or not there
wa soil to be found in the valley has
no stock for sale. There are two hun
dred members in the association who
furnish what financial help is neces-
sary fo rthe project. This is the first
well to be driven in this section, and
there is at present every reason for be-
lieving that there is; oil there.
A 9O-foOt standard rig has ben erect
ed on the place and it has all the APP
pearances of a miniature town, with
sanitary mess tents and habitations for
the drillers and workers having the
work under way. plentiful supply
of water is obtained from Beals spring.
one-foUrth mile distant. It is located in
section 5, township II south and range
10 east.
Another well being sunk in section
%, township 1 south and range east
is the A. c. Routh or Diamond Bar
well, upon which $4,000 already has
been spent in preliminary construction
work. 1t was found necessary to pipe
the water supply for this well dis
tance of II miles from the Trifolo ca
nal.
This also is Il. closed corporation and
no stock is for sale. The company has
a 96foot standard rig, which together
with the piping of the water was pro
jected at an enormous expense giving
ample evidence of the confidence of its
projectors that there is oil to be had in
that district.
According to Professor Sparks, a
noted gcologist, these two workings are
pronounced the two most perfect domes
in the state. .
Head Driler Reese of the latter cor
poration. who is Il small shareholder in
the new well. stated that his stock was
not for sale at any price, so great is his
conviction that they are to strike oil
