BOOST FOR OIL PROSPECTING

brighter and brighter each day Sun
day large number of stock holders
and others interested in the well were
out watching the drill go down All
came home feeling that the prospects
were never brighter. They report that
a lot of oil was showing the sIush
pond and that whenever the baIIer
came up it showed much fresh oil
This certainly looks good. At this
time they are drifting at little more
than 1000 feet, in limestone The
formations have been regular all of
the time and the drillers are very OPP
tinistic over the outlook. It behooves
every one of us to get busy and help
this proposition if We haven't all
ready done SO. It may mean untold
wealth to Osborne county Let US all
get busy before it is too late for US to
have share and boost the hole to the
very bottom. Here's to the success of
Delhi.-Osborne Farmer
What the Farmer says regarding
boosting for the oil well IN Osborne
county can be well applied to the
work being done on Walsh well No. 1,
north of CoIlyer. The untold wealth
OF an oil district will mean just as
much to Trego county it will to.
other parts of Kansas or the nation.
Because the first drilling is being done
north Of Collyer does not mean that
WaKeeney and other parts of Trego
county will not be benefited if an oil
field is located at ColIyer. Col1yer
is in Tfego county and the oil dis
trict as selected and approved by the
geologists which have visited here and
selected the field have located prac-
tica1iy all of it in Trego county.
Some OF. the stGood'' territory extends
over into Graham county but very
little of it reaches into Cove county.
The. best territory is close around
the site of the location of the
present well and extends east along
the Saline river and gradually fades
away north and little east of Wa
Keeney. The most of US are willing
to invest some money each year in
chance gam es and as long as it would
be such benefit to Trego county if
the oil is found all who can afford it
should take. a chance for the purpose
of boosting that amount for the good
of the county. If nothing is devel-
oped no one need be out much money
but If oil is found those who have in
vested early will get big returns.
