night at Washington auditorium by

but the absence of several princi-

Two Holbrook Wells
Reporting Progress

Optimistic reports from both the
Great Basin we'll and the Adamana
field at Holbrook were issued from
headquarters of the companies this
week. Both wells have overcome
or are overcoming difficulties that
have slowed up the work.
DR.. w. F. Green, of the Adamana
Oil company, asserts that work at
the Adamana well had taken on
the aspect of ordinary routine drill
ling, with the bit coming closer
each day to the lower sands where
the first hole drilled had indicated
the oil to be. The log of previous
drilling shows that the stratum
just below the present location is
of soft material, which promises
speedy progress for the future.
The Great Basin we'll was ce-
mented last week, after the flow
of water had caused operations to
cease. A fleet of trucks, and a
crew of expert cementers were
brought to Holbrook from Califor-
MIA, and completed the work of
SCmSHLIuS LII ISCOlu IIu0.
After the we'll had been shot and
the structure fractured, the well
was cleaned out, and the specially
prepared mixture was dumped into
the hole.
AS soon as the cement hardens,
Mr.. Bache, in charge of work on
the well, will make preparations
to drill through it. 1t is expected
that considerable swabbing will
have to be gone through with to
clean out the water that has seep-
ed into the well.
