To DEEPEN TEST
SOUTHERN GRADY

That the well being drilled in
southern Grady in section 35-3n-7w
by Wade, Shipp and Nash, has
reached the contract depth of $500
feet, but is to be deepened, was the
statement today of c. M. Longston,
who is interested in the proposition.
Mr.. Langston declared that the
formations were favorable at the
contract depth and that after a con-
sultation, a decision to deepen the
hole had been reached. He predict
ed that the well would be drilled to
5000 feet if necessary.

Deep Test Is Watched.

The deep test of the Cement
Fields company, being the Kunsmul.
Ter No. 2, in section 1868 is being
watched by oil men of the Cement
as well as other fields. This well
is now drilling at around 3,940 feet,
using cable tools and drilling with n
special three inch bit.
Reports from the field state that
at their present depth, black slate
has ben encountered and it is point
ed out that it is practically the
same formation as found just above
the Bartlesville sand. There has
long been a contention that some
where in the Cement field, deep
sand would be struck and opinions
are uniform that when that sand is
found it will be producer or
gusher Other operators in the field
have declared that in the event the
Cement Fields company strikes a
sand in their present well, other
deep ones will be drilled, even IL
the Kunsmuller well is dry, the
theory being that If there is
sand at that location, even a dry
sand, it will be productive at an
