Pure Oil Company Has Large
Casinghedd Gns Output

The Pure OF company's produc-
tion Of casinghead gasoline IN Janu-
ary was ,S49,194 gallons, an average
OF 61,G40 gallons n day. This was an
increase of 217.13S gallons, or 9 per

ton was 1,G32,056 gallons, an aver
age OF $4,000 gallons day. AS
compared with the same month of
the previous year, the January pro-
ductlon showed an increase Of 81 per
cent. In January, 1921, the output
of casinghcad gasoline was 1,37s,51S
gallons, an average OF As, $50 gallons
a day.
Its output OF casinghead gasoline
gives the Pure Oil company rank as
one of the largest producers in the
country. During the last several
years, the operation OF Pure Oil's
eight casinghead gasoline plants has
shown "A constant upward trend. do
spite the fact that the normal pro-
ducing trend for such plants has
been downward.
As compared with 1918. the first
year of the Pure OH company's oper-

Hazlett & Campbell Well
Mighty Important

The Hazlett & Campbell deep test,
In the northwest corner OF the north
west OF S-13-15, near the town of
Eram on the east side of the good
okmulgee field, is of particular i'm
portance because IL Is the only deep
sand producer within a radius OF sew
eral miles and will lead to a lot Of
activity in deep sand drilling within
the next few months.
Pay sand was topped at 2,720 feet,
according 10 Mr.. Hazlett. and they
are now but one foot in the big pay
below this depth. For 90 feet above
this level broken pay and shale was
encountered from which the well
made its first production.
The Sinclair Pipe Line company
has made connection with the Haz-
lett & Campbell test, which is now
proo.-ing 20 barrels per hour actual
gauge. II has been the general be-
lief Of oil operators in the Okmulgee
district that oil would be encoun-
tered in the deep sands In this east
ern district, although lot OF fall
ures have been completed.

January II, 1922, with an initial
production OF 2,640 barrels. is now
making 1000 barrels, which Is con-
sidered remarkable for n we'll pro-
ducing that length OF time.
The residents and taxpayers OF
Creek county should feel elated with
this well, as the county owns the
fee In the land and is receiving ap-
proximately $1,000 per month as
It's royalty. with this large sum be-
ing placed in the county treasury
each month, 1t Is very evident that
sooner or later the taxpayers will be
greatly benefited, as these moneys
should eventually reduce taxes and
that will make Creek county one OF
the most valuable in the state.
The II. F. wilcox OIL &tGaa Co.
Is developing the lease in q highly
satisfactory manner to everyone, as
they now have two wells drilling and
rig over the location for the third.
From all indications these tests will
be good producers and add to the
