LeMaster Is Due Wednesday.
The LeMaster well is scheduled to
drill out the plug Tuesday and bail
Wednesday, being the first Of the
three wells cemented on the sand to
schedule completion this week. Oil
men who have watched the LeMaster
well, predict that his we'll will prove
to be as good as the run of gassers
that have come in after the discov-
cry well.

are to further extend the field south

the ground to cement on sand at

the sand tested, state that it has

oil. 1t is the Nelson we'll to be the
one that hits the first oil in tho
field? is the question oil men are
asking. 1t is scheduled for the
closest watching from this time on.
Means More Drilling.
The opening of the stretch Of new
territory half mile wide and more
than mile long, means great deal
more drilling for the field. Indica-
tions are that the first direct results
of the new well, in the way Of more
operations, will be an offset by the
Little Nick Oil and Gas company.
This company owns an S0-acre
lease Immediately north of the S. J.
Anderson forty on which the Mande-
vile well was drilled. A member
Of the board of directors of the Lit
tie Nick company, indicated this
morning that a deal, which has been
under way for several weeks, will
be closed soon and an offset well
started.
Other leases in the new strip are
scheduled to be drilled in the imme-
diate future, it was learned this
morning. In addition, the week is
to see eight or ten new wells started,
being mainly north, northeast and
J northwest of the discovery well.
