SPOT TEST AT BYNUM
TWO WELLS HAD
SHOW OF OIL---
THIRD STARTING G

r. C. Tarrant this week began
| moving materials onto location on
Bynum structure, southwest Of Pom
/ dera oil field, where several wells
have found good showings Of oil.
A new oil field is believed almost
certain to result from this new By
mum test.
Location is center SEA NV 4
Sec. 3-26N-6W. This is a mile and
half southwest of the O'Neil-Jones
test well drilled in February, 1925.
and the Mtdwest-Scott wildcat, drill
Cd in 1880. Both Of those wells
had oil in such quantities that under
modern methods Of acidization would
doubtless have been commercial.
The ONeil well had oil at 1904
feet, at the top Of the Madison lime.
Water developed, with deeper drill
ing. This well was in me- NEA
SEA 34-27-6W, starting at an ele-
vation OF 4183 feet. It had five
feet of dry Sunbunst sand at 1880
1855 and had the contact at 2604.
Drilling stopped at 1850. after water
was found.
The showing at the O'Neil well
led to the drilling Of a well by
Refining Co, subsidiary of
Standard OF Indiana, in Sc SEX |
NEA 2-26-6W. This well started |
at an elevation of 4059 and drilled |
10 2503. 1t had a showing of oil |
1t the Ellis-Madison contact from /
2468 to 247S-enough so that 1t
was shot with nitro glycerin in an
sffort to make a well. 1t had no
Sunburst sand.
Observers say that both Of these
wells had a production of from two
o ten barrels Of live oil per day.
The Tarrant test will be drilled
With natural gas for fuel for It's
,oilers from the old Edwards gas
wells. They were tested during the
,ast week and were found to have
dequate volume and pressure to
un a boiler, although they have
een blowing for IL years. They
re shallow gassers, getting their
reduction from a sand in the
pper part of the Colorado.
The Tarrant rig used on the Pend
oy test is being moved to the By
um location. New leases have been ,

were pumping at capacity for the
first time in several weeks. the field
has no justification for a fall drill

The presence OF oil in the Devonian

the Devonian is likely to be the

production.
No official announcement is

The year 1885 was a year o.
progress for business at the ex
pense of workers, the American
Federation of Labor says in it,
annual review released today
The review says in part:
with increases in prOduc-
ton and business activity, in
dustry in general is operating
on a more profitable basis than
in 1884. Standard Statistics es-
Inmates that the profits Of in
dustrial corporations probably
exceeded 1884 by 40 per cent.
Thus a IA per cent increase
in production has meant q 40
per cent increase in profits.
These figures illustrate further
the basic principle cited in our
survey Of October, 1885, that
a small increase in production
may bring a large increase in
profits, placing industry in a
position to pay higher wages
to its employees.
Actually, However, gains in
industrial income during 1888
have not brought correspond.
ing gains to workers. While
profits increased about 40 per
cent, workers real buying
power rose only 2.6 per cent,
and the wOrk.week was length
ened by IA hours"
Employment in all induStrie:
during 1885 exceeded 1884 by ar
average of $4,000. while unem
ployment averaged 12,300,000, The
survey continues. This increase II
jobs was the workers creates
gain, but even so employment
failed to keep pace with gains ir
and business activity
according to the review which
adds:
Business observers are unani-
nous in expecting 1886 to be a
better year than 1885. Industry
will be in a better position to
increase wages. In general, pro-
duction is expected to increase
about 10 per cent above LAST
years level, but industry is not
planning to create work for all
the unemployed. UnqueStiOn-
