OIL FIELD NOTES Oil field operations reported week ending October 28, show 28 new wells started, compared with 38 during the previous week. The total new wells this year is 1162, as compared with 1113 the same date last year. Tests for water shut-off 34, compared with 35 previous week. Yearly total to date 1426; total to same date last year 1243. Deepening or redrilling jobs 14, compared with 18 preceding week. Total to date this year 661; total to same date last year 571, Abandonments, 6, compared with 7 preceding week. Total to date this year 226; total to same date last year 184. Santa Fe Springs continues to hold its own as the greatest high gravity producing field in the west. More than ten thousand barrels of new production was added to the field's output during the past week, bringing the daily average up close to 60,000 barrels. The Standard Oil company added a 2500 barrel well to its production, with 35 gravity oil, to the list by bringing in South Whittler Community No. 1 at 4700 feet. Koontz No. 2 was re-drilled by the Standard Oil empany to 3915 feet and went on production at 2100 barrels. Koontz No. 3 finished at the same depth and started off at 2000 barrels. The Standard Oil company's contribution to the field for the week was 6000 barrels, all high gravity oil. A number of co companies became producers last week at the Springs. Oscar Howard got his initial well, a 1500 barrel producer on the Bell pro- Farnsworth No. 1, at 4773 feet, is beginning to show some oil. Up to the present time this well had not shown any indications and was about to be put on the doubtful list. Montebello came back after being away three years. The old field staged a comback with a 1250 barrel well. The St. Helens' Petroleum company put the new life in Montebello on the Monterey property. Monterey No. 7 the biggest well at Montebello since the boom days, was completed at 4361 feet and gives an inkling of some of the possibilities for deep production. The production of the new Montebello wonder is running around 30*gravity oil. Bellflower is beginning to take on the appearance of a regular oil field. Two rigs are up and a third will be up before the end of the week. The company to break the ice in this new prospective field is the Cal-Petro Producers' syndicate. The concern is backed by San Francisco capital and has a well about ready to start drilling a half mile north of Bellflower. The Artesia Oil company located on the Benson ranch a mile north and east of Bellflower has spudded in and is drilling. The Bellflower Oil syndicate has the lumber on the ground for a rig to go up a quarter of a mile south of Bellflower.* The Artesia-Bellflower district is believed to be located the proper distance between Santa Fe Springs and Long Beach for the upheaval of a petroleum dome. At Brea the Dolke-Thamos syndicate on its third hole attempt to get a well down, has met with a fishing job at 1950 feet. The drill pipe twisted oc leaving several strands in the hole On account of the treacherous formation at this depth the situation looks important beetings in boots its and other cities three important meetings in throughout the week and till election day. Senate will also remain in southern for the balance of the week. BUSINESS REVIVAL I Business in Alaska is according to Associate Fo Sherman, who has just Washington from a two in the territory. Exports the past 10 ir 12 years source of cash returns, prisingly heavy, while a vital is in evidence and high-grade lumber, cut from gass national forest, showing beginning. "The people of southern particularly pleased with of the forest service to pulp and paper industry and with the roads service and the bureau roads," said Mr. Sherman problem in Alaska is uncountered elsewhere. In travel and traffic exists government begins building Alaska we have had to a demand. Under our plans been extended a short dist coast from each of them in the forest, with some objective in each case. To of settlement which has been surprising." Mr. Sherman said that ago when in Ketchikan it to a power plant and had through a jungle to get then a road has been built have followed on both sides now a city street. This y thing is taking place in s A number of companies became producers last week at the Springs. Oscar Howard got his initial well, a 1500 barrel producer on the Bell property, finishing No. 1 at 3891 feet. Geo. Foetty brought in the Mitchell well at 3864 feet an 800 barrel producer. The Jamieson Oil company got its first production at No. 1, a 1300 barrel well at 3845 feet. C. C. Julian gladden the hearth of his backers with a well that for five hours produced at the rate of 3600 barrels, later settling down to a 1700 barrel producer. The Petroleum producers finished at No. 1 at 3917 feet, and got an 800 barrel well. The Union Oil company's Bell No. 8 is one of the big producers, completed at 3,639 feet this new well is making 2350 barrels daily. Next in order is the General Petroleum Oil company's Santa Fe No. 89, as 1800 barrel well at 3924 feet. Last week a prediction was made that the Coalinga-Mohawk's McClinn took would be a producer at 5200 feet. Oil showings at 5140 and 5100 feet are giving color to the prediction. McClintock No. 1 is a north side outpost well that will have the same bearing on the north side as did that famous Hamilton No. 4, to the south side of the field. The Federal Drilling company has completed the Elliott-Browning Syndicate well at 3880 feet and the outlook for one of the best producers in the district is very promising. The Star Petroleum company had the misfortune to have the water break in on its 1800 barrel well at Santa Fe Springs. This well went on production a couple of weeks ago at 3820 feet. Huntington Beach got another big boost for its deep production when the White-Behr Petroleum company completed a 2000 barrel well at 4477-feet. The big well is located just a little west of the Holly Oil company's No. 1 and is in the midst of the small producers. This new well is one of the deepest in the field and to show what it could do it started off of Bellflower. The Artesia-Bellflower district is believed to be located the proper distance between Santa Fe Springs and Long Beach for the upheaval of a petroleum dome. At Brea the Dolke-Thamos syndicate on its third hole attempt to get a well down, has met with a fishing job at 1950 feet. The drill pipe twisted oc leaving several strands in the hole. On account of the treacherous formation at this depth the situation looks serious and may mean another move of the rig. Drilling at Buena Park is going ahead nicely, but shows no oil. The Standards' test well, Mitchell No. 1 is now at 5200 feet and the outlook cannot be said to be at all promising. At Downey the Union Oil company's Community well is at 3900 feet, drilling in grey sand. Core samples are being taken at close intervals and a careful watch of the log is being made. Oil is expected near the 3900-4000 mark. At Fairview the outlook is favorable for an early producer. The 6 1-2 inch casing has been set and cemented at 4088 feet, and all that stands in the way of production now is the drilling out of the plug. It is believed a big well will result as soon as the hole is opened up. PARTY CHIEFS HOLD MEETING The most important and significant Republican meeting since the primary election took place Monday, when Friend W. Richardson, Republican nominee for governor, and Senator Johnson appeared together before two enthusiastic gatherings of party leaders and pledged their support to each other and the entire Republican ticket. One of the meetings was a reception given by the Republican county and state central committees in honor of the two candidates at the Angelus hotel, and the other, a luncheon of the Young Men's Republican League at the Union League club. "I have been urging everywhere the election of the entire Republican ticket," said Mr. Richardson. Throughout the length and breadth of the state I have advocated the support of Friend W. Richardson for governor, and of every other nominee on coast from each of them in the forest, with some objective in each case. TheOf settlement which has been surprising." Mr. Sherman said that ago when in Ketchikan to a power plant and had through a jungle to get then a road has been built have followed on both sides now a city street. This year thing is taking place in sealand and the towns of southeast are being transformed. "By January 1," continue man, "the government will greatly benefit the try in the interior of Alaska." "When the rich placers out there still remained a field for dredging. Wood fuel, but the nearby hills stripped and the price of the mines ranged from $ as $22.50 per cord, make pensive power and heat more men are employed around Fairbanks than of years, due first to unrainfall, and second, be cheap fuel they see come matter of fact, they already actively cheap fuel on the is as low as $9 a ton, andition of the bridge across will bring it down as low ton. "The output of cahned Alaska this year will be erage of the past 10 or something over 4,000,000 looked last year as though industry was facing earlier out, greatly to the surp familiar with the industry this year was in some than ever before. The try in Alaska is the source and considerable demand from the national forests boards, piling and timber port,a number of local." "There is now great herring fisheries. Last shipped about 170,000 bacured herring, which wint in any previous year, thering relatively new. A about 300,000 barrels is year. This is of great Huntington Beach got another big boost for its deep production when the White-Behr Petroleum company completed a 2000 barrel well at 4477 feet. The big well is located just a little west of the Holly Oil company's No. 1 and is in the midst of the small producers. This new well is one of the deepest in the field and to show just what it could do it started off with a production estimated to be between three and four thousand barrels. The big well is making 27 gravity oil. This well is perhaps better known to the public as the Jackie Coo gan No. 1. It is understood that the project is backed by the youthful film prodigy and marks his entrance into the oil game. Having had all the misfortune that can happen to an oil well, the Golden Dome is about to emerge a victor. A blow out that painted a lot of Huntington Beach scenery removes all doubt about the future for the Golden Dome company. The well has made a showing that is sufficient to warrant the prediction that when it is put on production, it will make a 500-barrel well. The Golden Dome company well was started soon after Huntington Beach got under way, and has pegged along facing drilling troubles one after another. Success now looms up and looms bright. The Standard Oil company's contribution to the Huntington Beach production was two wells, aggregating close to 4000 barrels daily. On the Huntington Beach property No. 7 came in a 2100 barrel well at 4286 feet. Huntington A-18 at 4256 feet started off a 1700 barrel well. Both wells are making 26 gravity oil. The Standard Oil company's far east well given by the Republican county state central committees in honor of the two candidates at the Angelus hotel, and the other, a luncheon of the Young Men's Republican League at the Union League club. "I have been urging everywhere the election of the entire Republican ticket," said Mr. Richardson. "Throughout the length and breadth of the state I have advocated the support of Friend W. Richardson for governor, and of every other nominee on the Republican ticket." Senator Johnson told his hearers. Mr. Richardson said that there was no question in his mind as to the outcome of the forthcoming elections, and that the entire ticket of Republican candidates would be elected by overwhelming majorities. In his recent tour of the state, from which he has just returned, he has visited almost every section of California, he said. He expected to come to the Teachaapi with a majority of more than 75,000 votes and hopes to receive an even greater majority in southern California. Senator Johnson, following brief introductory remarks, said that he was delighted to have the opportunity of speaking for and with a man with whom he had stood side by side many times before. "There is no internal dissension now. We are facing a common opponent. In all sections of the state I have asked support for Friend W. Richardson and for every man on the Republican ticket. I hope to see and feel confident that Mr. Richardson will be elected governor by a tremendous majority." The reception held at the Republican headquarters in the Angelus hotel was attended by party leaders from all sections of southern California who discussed plans for a strenuous final week's campaign. Mr. Richardson is scheduled to make a number of addresses before important beetings in both Los Angeles and other cities throughout the important meetings in Los Angeles throughout the week and probably until election day. Senator Johnson will also remain in southern California for the balance of the week. BUSINESS REVIVAL IN ALASKA Business in Alaska is looking up according to Associate Forester E. A. Sherman, who has just returned to Washington from a two-months trip in the territory. Exports of fish, for the past 10 or 12 years the great source of cash returns, will be surprisingly heavy, while a mining revival is in evidence and exports of high-grade lumber, cut from the Tongass national forest, show a promising beginning. "The people of southern Alaska are particularly pleased with the efforts of the forest service to establish a pulp and paper industry in the territory and with the roads built by the service and the bureau of public roads," said Mr. Sherman. "The road problem in Alaska is unlike that encountered elsewhere. In the states, travel and traffic exists before the government begins building roads; in Alaska we have had to anticipate the demand. Under our plans, roads have been extended a short distance along the coast from each of the chief towns in the forest, with some definite objective in each case. The extension of settlement which has followed has been surprising." Mr. Sherman said that seven years ago when in Ketchikan he went out to a power plant and had to scramble through a jungle to get there. Since then a road has been built, and houses have followed on both sides, making it now a city street. This year the same thing is taking place in several places some of the denominations being so close that employees hastily handling mail may be mistaken. This consideration is being supported, since the proposal was mentioned by persons of artistic nature who complain that our stamps lack the grace and beauty of many used by other nations. The French stamps evoke instant admiration for their design and coloring. The German stamps and many of those put out by the new nations are artistic, while the British and American, limited to heads of rulers, or Washington and Franklin, are almost severely plain. Yet when some of our special issues are remembered it may be debated whether the attempt at artistry was a conspicuous success. The designers seem to crowd too much into the space, in sharp contrast to the clear and simple but beautiful designs of the French. But if we cannot have prettier postage there is the practical argument that mistakes might be lessened by restricting the head of any patriot to one denomination.

The extension of settlement which has followed has been surprising." Mr. Sherman said that seven years ago when in Ketchikan he went out to a power plant and had to scramble through a jungle to get there. Since then a road has been built, and houses have followed on both sides, making it now a city street. This year the same thing is taking place in several places and the towns of southeastern Alaska are being transformed. "By January 1," continued Mr. Sherman, "the government railroad will be in shape to run cars direct from the wharves at Seward into Fairbanks, a distance of 467 miles—nearly equal to that from Washington to Boston. The completion of this road will greatly benefit the mining industry in the interior of Alaska." "When the rich placers were played out there still remained a tremendous field for dredging. Wood was used for fuel, but the nearby hills were soon stripped and the price of fuel wood at the mines ranged from $10 to as high as $22.50 per cord, making very expensive power and heat. This year more men are employed in the mines around Fairbanks than for a number of years, due first to unusually heavy rainfall, and second, because of the cheap fuel they see coming. As a matter of fact, they already have relatively cheap fuel on the ground. Coal is as low as $9 a ton, and the completion of the bridge across the Tanana will bring it down as low as $4.50 per ton. "The output of cahned salmon from Alaska this year will be about the average of the past 10 or 12 years—something over 4,000,000 cases. It looked last year as though the salmon industry was facing early destruction out, greatly to the surprise of those familiar with the industry, the run this year was in some cases greater than ever before. The salmon industry in Alaska is the source of a steady and considerable demand for timber from the national forests for boxboards, piling and timbers and supports a number of local sawmills. "There is now great activity in the herring fisheries. Last year Alaska shipped about 170,000 barrels of mild cured herring, which was more than in any previous year, this industry being relatively new. A shipment of about 300,000 barrels is expected this year.

A shipment of about 300,000 barrels is expected this year. This is of great importance to the territory for the reason that herring packing has a longer season than salmon canning." Mr. Sherman stated that as he came through Ketchikan he saw a five-masted schooner being loaded with lumber from the local sawmill and billed for Australia. The cargo consisted of 1,800,000 feet B. M. of spruce and its part of a 5,000,000 foot order the remainder of which will be loaded and on its way probably by the first of December. Mr. Sherman said it was interesting to note also that during the summer the sawmill at Wrangell billed out 45,000 feet of clear spruce which was shipped to the London Market. The same mill also made a shipment of 450,000 feet of spruce intended for the eastern market. At the time of visiting Wrangell, Mr. Sherman saw a carload of shop lumber waiting at the dock which was intended for shipment to the Chicago market.
