Train Load Of Cattle Shipped.

Last Saturday afternoon train Of
Bossier Parish cattle was shipped
from Benton. consigned to st. Louis,
and routed over the Cotton Belt. The
chief owners of the cattle, so the
reporter is told, were: Mr. j. Il. Burt,
something over 200 head; Mr.. G. @.
Gayle (of Shreveportl, 115 head; Mr..
d. II. Stinson, about 300 head; Mr..
w. g. Burt. 66 head, and Mr.. w. w.
Carter. Mr.. w. g. Stinson and perhaps
others owning lesser numbers. The
cattle were in fair condition and there
were enough of them to fill twent y-one
car. At Plain Dealing one other car
was picked up. a second car at that
place being refused because of the cat
tie being ticky, according to report.
Those to 90 to st. LotIis with the
shipment Of cattle were: Mr.. W. w.
Carter. Mr. J. +. Burt. Mr.. Jesse Jones
and Mr.. Il. A. Connell (of Belcher)
and Masters James. tiiroud and Sid
ney Burt. We suspect the last three
named saw many sights that were
new to then, and, generally, had a bet
ter time than the other members Of the
DarU.

Deep Test in Bossier
Produces New Record

From to-day's Shreveport Ti'""s
Bossier Parrish, famed for its large
gas deposits and as the shallowest oil
field in the world. comes to the front
at Christmas time with another gift
for the stocking of the oil fraternity.
The latest contribution of Bossier to
the oil history of the mid-continent
field is the discovery of high gravity
oil at an unprecedent deep level. The
Gulf Refining Company is the operator
which has set new precedent in Lou
isiana oil explorations. The test is No.
IL Hodges, in section 24-16-12, in the
Elm Grove district.
Here are some Of the outstanding
feature Of the well:

Beaume gravity.
The crude congeals after few min
utes' exposure to the cold air. resem-
bling mass of petroleum jelly or
yaseline.
Experts agree that the Oil detles clas-
sification. In the sixteen Years Of ex-
ploration Of the Louisiana fields it is
the first time that oil of its kind has
been found. Biologists identify the
sand from which the oil comes as the
Trinity, corresponding to the deep gas
sand Of the Bossier field
The particular stratum of the Trim
| ity from which this new variety OF
crude is produced was topped at 4421
| feet Seven feet of soft formation--a
| sand-fOllowed. After that the bit
went into blue lime. ond two days after
1 the first returns of the lime reached
the surface the hole had been deepened
only two feet.
/ The seyen-foot streak of pay was
drilled through before returns reached
the surface. Advocates Of cable tools
in deep drilling in this territory will
/ take heart from this circumstance.
When the oil reached the surface 1t
1 was estimated the hole was good for
| 30 barrels, but with the crude, after
the first 100 barrels or so, came salt
water and then blue lime cuttings.
A preliminary laboratory analysis
gave the following report: Gasoline,
As per cent; Kerosene, IL per cent ; gas
oil, 81 per cent residium, 4S.5,per cent.
Crude gravity, 39.6 Beaume, parafine
base.
/ The immediate value of the strike Is
4 Offset by the small amount of produc-
i ton and expensive depth, but the au-
| thorities do not hesitate to say that as
an indication Of the presence of oil
below 1000 feet, the well is the most
important vet drilled In Shreveport
territory since the old Caddo field was
discovered.
1t is probable. they say, that deeper
drilling III all North Louisiana will fol-
low, particularly in Caddo, South Bos-
sier and DeSoto and that this territory
will stage comeback without parallel.
1t is noted by those who have been
watching the well that this is the sec
ond deep pay encountered below levels
Mt which anything has ever been found
in this territory. At 1900 feet the hole
threatened a gas blowout Of large pro-
portions. Elm Groves deepest gas is
between $500 and 26OO feet.
Meanwhile. having drilled through
the new deep pay, the owners Of the
well are drilling on with no limit set
on depth to be reached.
