Gas Production
Second Highest
County Commissioners Get
$28,454.44 Check AS
Share OF Receipts

Natural gas production in the Ac-
cident. Mt. Lake Park, Gortner and
Red House areas over the past
three months ending March 81,
has come close to the all-time pre-
vicus record of three months ago,
it was learned from the report re-
ceived this week by the County
Commissioners.
The number of cubic feet pro-
duced in the 90-day period totaled
l ST. ,59S, 900 and was the sixth time
that the amount exceeded bill
lion cubic feet The marketable gas
was valued at S406.491 go
The company sent a check for
2S,454.44 as the county's total
from the seven percent tax on the
marketable gas which was just
$l193S less than the last check of
S2S,57382 The first check was re-
ceived by the Commissioners for
the first report back in 1851
The breakdown of this latest tax
showed $11.3S1.78 as the pur-
chaser's proportion C2S PERCENT
and S17O7266 as the producers
proportion Az percent.
Production from the thirty
three producing wells during the
months of January, February and
March totaled almost II and one
third million cubic feet per day
with the Herman and Hanlin well
! in the Accident area being rcSpOn-
siblc for SO million per day. No
new wells we're tabulated during
| tbs period and the Bcachy well was
not recorded The B. Miller Well
| i'm the Accident area showed a
| production Of 1926, 100000 cubic
| feet, the Earl Knox we'll showed a
production of 248002,000 cubic
feet, the Mitchell Rush we'll showed
production of 2O7,42O,OOO cubic
feet. Other large producers were
the Arnold well with over 81
million. the Bowser well with over
4S million, the Ford-Fike we'll with
over % million, the Swartzentruber
well with over Is million, the Miller
we'll with over Ill million, and the
Collier well with over 98 million.
The n X Welch well, one of the
oldest wells still producing, showed
a total of 17,529,000
Mt. Lake Park will receive a
portion of the tax through the
County Commissioners from gas
produced within the corporate
limits of the town.
Since the first check for the tax
on the marketable gas was received
by the Commissioners in July of
1851, the county's governing body
has received $273,385l8 which has
been used to help pay off the
school bond Indebtedness. Any
amount in excess of $4,000 during
any one year will 90 toward the
expenses of the Garrett County
Memorial hospital. During the past
year $11,23855 was placed in the
hospital expense fund. Should the
returns continue to remain at a
high level this year it would be
possible to place over $4,000 in
the hospital expense fund and
would relieve the Commissioners
of making any levy for that item
next year.
The complete report of the pro-
duction for the nincty-day period
is shown in tabular form in to-
days issue.
