Preparations are now being made
by the Western Oil company to drill
a test at a point three miles south,
east sof Newcastle. This location
adjoins h LAX ranch on which oil
was encountered last year by men
who wero drilling a water we'll at
around 400 feet. The showing was
not developed but It was thought that
sever or eight barrels could have
been taken from the hole a day. As
this location is near the outcrop OF a

nearer the center OF the structure
that commercial production will be
developed at a depth of approximate

acted upon that such events meant as
a rule, higher prices for grain.
As the week drew to a close, almost
complete absence OF export business
in wheat had a countervailing influ-
ence and profit taking sales wiped
out to a considerable degree, the
gains which had preceded. It was
pointed out that. the present cost Of
a single cargo Of wheat to Germany
as figured in marks would equal the
entire German national debt before
the world war. On the other hand,

were somewhat inclined to caution an

able crop outlook for domestic winter

with the wheat advance.
Despite lower hog values, provi.
