WORK Will Be
STARTED WELL
BAGGS FIELD

A Keystone rig and a full string
of tools were on the grounds the
fore part of this week for the start
ing Of the work on the Armstrong
Syndicate well which is being drilled
in the SWA of section SO in town
ship 10 north range 92 w. state
school land, marked by the U. S.
government as the highest point on
the dome in Bags section.
1t is estimated that the depth of
the production sand is between 500
and 1000 feet and the equipment
that is being installed will drill to a
depth of about 1000 feet, however,
IL production is not reached within
the upper sands it is planned to in
stall other equipment capable of
drilling 1000 feet II necessary.
The government recently COM
pleted a report of the structure and
all indications point to the striking of
gas and oil in this field. The field
is about two miles wide and six miles
long. NJ. NJ. Armstrong states that
the company will drill to the lower
Wasatch sands where production is
expected. The sands are saturated
at Muddy creek, about 20 miles north
of Bags, thus oil should be %encount-
cred at the dome near Baggs. There
seems very good chances Of getting
production in the shallow sands, how
ever, as stated If this is not done the
well will be drilled to the lower
depths.
The work Of drilling will be started
in about two weeks and work will
be rushed along as fast as possible.
1t is hoped by all residents of Car
bon county that oil is encountered
in this field and all are anxiously
watching developments and hoping
for an oil strike in the near future.

MERRELL
ACCIDENTALLY
SHOT SUNDAY

Alfred Merrell, employee of the
p. and R. in the Shipping Depart
ment, was accidentally shot through
the back last Sunday afternoon while
hunting about seven miles northeast
of Parco.
Mr.. and Mrs. Merrell and E. C.
Welton drove out northeast of Parco
Sunday on a short hunting expedi-
ton. Merrell and Welton stepped out
of the car on opposite sides to shoot
at some rabbits. After having shot
once Merrell believing that Welton
had already done the same stepped
out from behind the car just at the
instant that Welton fired. The bull
let from Welton's rifle, a $500,
struck Merrell in the back creasing
his right shoulder and entering just
under the left shoulder finally lodg-
ing in his left arm above the elbow.
He was taken Immediately to the
Parco First Aid Station where DIR.
Sander attended him and shortly
after took him to the Memorial hos
pital in Rawlins where an X-ray was
taken and the bullet removed.
Merrell states that the accident
was a mistake on his part and takes
all blame for the unfortunate Incl
dent from the shoulders of Welton.
The good fellowship and existing
spirit in Parco among the employees
has resulted in a generous purse, do
mated by all, to be presented to Mer-
rell to assist him at this hour of his
need.
He is now resting easily in the Me-
mortal hospital in Rawlins and will
be up II about again within a short
