Big Gasser in Bellevue Field.

A short news story appearing in last
Fridays issue Of the Shreveport Journal
reads:
Another chapter was added to the
already unique history Of the Bellevue shall
low field, when the Louisiana Oil Refining
Corporationss Fee No. ), In the northeast
quarter of section 15-19-11, Bossier Parish,
blew In as q monster gasser carly this
morning from total depth OF 800 feet.
This well, which Is surrounded By shall
low producing oil wells, Ia variously esti-
mated to be making from g, 600 900 to
$4,000, 900 cubic feet Of gas, with q con-
siderable spray Of oil.
Probably nowhere else In the world,
and certainly not In the United States, has
gas well OF such initial capacity ever
been brought In ut q depth 50 near the sur
face, and this completion is only an added
evidence that the Bellevue shallow field Of
Bossier Parish Is indeed and In truth the
most wonderful oil field on this continent,
I IL is the prediction Of oil men here that
after blowing while this wen will de-
velop into a good oil producer"
