Operators in the Carter county fields

course as regards development under

icy of curtailment in production and
unnecessary drilling, all OF which will

highest level, and will no doubt bring
about further increases.
The Hewitt conservation committee

In a most effective manner since its
organization, issued a warning TO the
producers of this district that no re-
newed drilling campaign be commenced
for the situation so far as permanent
relief is concerned is unchanged in

You might as well have your home In a
