Effective on Monday oil runs from
Salt Creek are only 20 per cent OF the
total instead OF the usual 40 and this
rating will remain for some time.
This serves a two-fold purpose.
Owing to congestion of the storage OF
the purchasing companies It was i'm.
possible to handle all the oil being
delivered and a temporary lessening
Of the output was necessary. 1t was
also the desire OF many of the pro-
ducers that a new test run be made
of the production from their wells as
the output from which tho present
pro.rate is being made was tested
some time ago and It is n known fact
that the wells become parahned and
a cleaning ia necessary in order to
keep production to its hight. As
o Is the congestion is relieved at
the local tank farms. which will be
a matter OF only a short time, the
wells will be run at 100 per sent for
a sufficient length of time for the
production to be gagged. after which
a new pro.rate Will be made which
vii! be equitable to all. While It is
not known at present what this rate
will be II Is believed by those inter.
ested that II will not be less than 40
per cent and may be slightly higher.
II is tho belief Of the operators that
tho 100 per cent run will more than
make up for the loss incurred by max.
the 20 per cent during the
length Of time necessary.
