 A 'bul plug" closes off the end of Q pipe. A "swage nipple" rec duces the end of c pipe to permit it's being coupled to smaller pipe or opening.
 Picturesque and sometimes queer names arc given oil or gas pro- ducing formations in the earth. They include the sundance, the Cockfield, the CarizEo, Cook Noun. tain, Cypress, Paint Creek, Mo. Ciosly, Benoist, Waltersburg, oat- chell, Krekenhagen, Terminal and La Merced.
 Still more picturesque are the names borne by oil fields, many of which were named after their diS- coverers. Oklahoma has the Bow legs field and the Fish, Maud, Slick, and Wildcat tim fields. wyoming has 0 Lost Soldier field and . Lance Creek. Texas lists c KAMA field and c Vacuum field.

In the oil country, where mud guns. bull plugs, sucker rods, slur- rios and rat holes figure high in conversation, the foregoing nono- logue would be lucid talk. Few inc dustries can compare with the petroleum business in weird nomen- clature.
 The driler speaking meant that an oil well went wild and was squirting oil over the top of the derrick until the crew connected c complicated series of valves to the top of the well and shut off the flow. When tested, the well was found capable of producing TOO barrels of high quality oil an hour with 100000 cubic feet of gas.
 Changes By Locality
 Much of the oil country "sian- guage" is local In nature, but some of it is widely used. The greater part Is as strange to the uninitiate as the foregoing quotation.

 Pipline builders use "scabbing sleeves" for cleaning pipe.
