ATTENTION MIR. TCKES
Mr.. o. I. DeShon
Dear Sir:
noticed an article in your editorial
column Of Oct. "A referring to geo.
physical surveys being indispensable in
oil drilling. I heartily agree with you
with one exception. The seismograph
isn't the most advanced and accurate
instrument Mr.. Young has a geo.
physical instrument which can pick
up an oil field miles away, and from
that distance as well as on the oil
property tell the depths of the oil to
within few feet and In many in
stances the exact depth.
At the present time Mr.. Young of
Seattle is actively engaged IN locating
and developing strategic ore bodies In
Washington, Idaho and northern
California. This machine differs from
the many "doodlebugs" you hear about
in that this is a proven machine. This
machine is going TO do away with
wildcat drilling and to save thousands
of dollars.
Yours sincerely,
Mrs. James G. Young,
Seattle, Wash.
