COUNTY NOTES OLINDA The Union Oil company is pushing work on the Stearns lease in the Fullerton field and is establishing one of the finest camps ever built in any district. The work is planned for permanency and the houses, storerooms and other buildings would be a credit to a large city. The Union is also spending a large amount of money in making new road and repairing old ones, and transportation has been thus greatly facilitated during the past two weeks. The camp is about half way between Olinda and Brea Canyon, and convenient to the drilling in progress in the hills back of it. A large number of homes for workingmen have been erected and foundations are laid for more. Flowers have been planted in every available spot and the Union is living up to its reputation for taking the best of care of its employes. In addition to rigs already up and derricks under way, surveyors have located sites for three or four wells which will be rigged as soon as possible. Derricks have been erected for Nos. 49, 50 and 51. Drilling will be started probably this week. Number 40 is 2700 feet deep and pumping 700 barrels daily, an exceedingly good showing.

Other locations are to be selected and more rigs will be placed at an early date. Upon the best authority it may be stated that the Stearns lease will soon become the center of activity of the Olinda hills.
