Sinclair Purchases So

AS Site of Large Tanks

The Sinclair Crude Oil Purchasing
company has purchased the S0-acre

west quarter of section II, 4s,3w
about one mile south of the town of
Writ, on which will be erected the ten
$4,000 barrel capacity steel storage
tanks which are now en- route TO the
Healdton field from Chicago, and
which, as described in a previous ar.
ticle. are the first tanks of this ca.
pacity to be constructed in southern
Oklahoma oil fields.
The Sinclair interests are conducting
an intensive tank building campaign
throughout fields of Oklahoma and
Texas and are rapidly acquiring a
vast amount Of storage capacity which
they are filling in fast manner by
continuous increases of runs and ad-
dition of new business.
During the month of January the
runs Of the Sinclair company totalled
2069,7l6 barrels as compared with
runs totalling 1.S4O,S6O barrels IN De
cember, 1921. Crude oil in storage on
Sinclair farms increased approximately
1,20O, 900 barrels during January. and
total stocks are now approximately
13,500,000 barrels. At the close of 1921
total stocks amounted to 12,347,717
barrels.
The future of the crude market
relative to purchase quotation appears
to depend to the greatest extent on
products during the coming spring.
The large purchasers of the petro.
leum have been storing a great amount
of oil, and have been continually in.
creasing their runs as evidenced by
action in practically all fields. Total
stocks have increased. Storage capacity
has been continually increased and
for that reason the producer has been

not only what straits the Army Com
missarist had reached at that time, but
the humor that remained in all the
adverse conditions.
Of one thing we had plenty hog
and hominy provided the Yankees had
not been along for some time.
When the cry came "the Yankees
are coming" what a hiding away Of
valuables and what unique places
were chosen, such as old wells, brier
patches, and so on.
We danced, we sang, we laughed,
ha! ha! in those days.
The people had their entertain
ments. Love affairs were plentiful
but the ladies postponed their en-
gagements till their lovers came back
from fighting the Yankees and while
they waited they passed the time away
in fun and frolie with the soldier boys
camped near BY Many time have
l danced with some soldier boy when
every sense was on the alert for the
approach of the emmy. The boys
donned in cavalry boots with Texas
spurs, they dared not lay aside their
arms but kept their six shooters
buckled around their waists and had
their horses within easy reach ready
to be off at a moments notice.

a large wedding in the neighborhood,
