countered in the drilling to date. Mr..
Wheeler also said that production

Should the -Four States we'll. or

probably bring on a boom similar to
that in certain towns and cities in

In March of this year. the Kinney

lease in Hull. Kansas, one-half mile
distant from its neares producer.
This well made $50 barrels initially.
and now holds steadily at lis barrels
per day. The new well is considered
to prove a new producing zone in the
field, and other wells will be drilled
when better conditions in the industry
warrant increased production.
Aside from the decrease in the mar
ket price of crude. the position of the
company is improved we that of last
year. The net production during May,
1921. was over 300 barrels. exceed
ing the production OF any month in

steady production; Grass Creek wells
have been deepened with consequent
