parallel to the prediction Of q score
or more of gcOlogist aud veteran oil

extreme depth.
The quantity which bids fair to
reach 10000 should 1t ever be CON
aidorcd safe to give the dancing and
praucing well chance. Is not all
that Is considered on the favorable
side. The fact that the well yields

several notches
This well had been drlIcd as

mother pool which has been chased
by the 60 odd drilling yrigs. while
others arrived 10 join the chase. The
gas demonstrations have continued

duction, oil men always declared
that the field bore the plaincst ear

south and no one ever seemed TO
be the least discouraged.
All the operators are now plan
ming for deepening all wells that
have not yet been brought in, on
down to the deep stuff while the
depth to which future wells will be
drilled Will require more timcs and
cost. the difference I'm depth viii
