OIL FIELD NOTES Oil field operations reported the week ending January 20, show 28 new wells started, compared with 40 previous week. The total new wells this year is 95, compared with 69 same date last year. Tests for water shut-off 34, compared with 19 preceding week. Total to date this year 44; total to same date last year 52. Abandonments 7, compared with 4 preceding week. Total to date this year 11, total to same date last year 36. Development work at Santa Fe Springs has not slowed any since the price of crude oil was so sharply reduced. Santa Fe Springs operators suffer least of any in that the Santa Fe Springs field is producing the high gravity oil. The daily output of this field is now getting up around the 100,000 barrel mark, and most of the oil runs from 29 to 35 gravity. The recent price cut does not lower any of the Santa Fe Springs product below the dollar mark, and there is good money in oil at a dollar a barrel. The Shell Oil company brought in the biggest well for the Santa Fe Springs field on the Golay property. Golay No. 4, completed at 3898 feet, came in at 4670 barrels and is the Shell Oil company's largest producer in the Santa Fe Springs territory. Recently this well went on production at 2000 barrels daily at 3850 feet. Forty-eight feet more hole resulted in doubling the production and the getting of a better gravity and quality of oil. One of the surprises for the past week was the bringing in of Gatty No. 1, on the Baker property, which came in at 4000 barrels, "under wraps," and deepened to 4750 feet, came in a 2500 barrel producer. The Ashton well was finished after more than 1300 feet of oil sand and shale was passed through, and should make one of the long-lived brothers of the Hutnington Beach field. Richfield attracted a little of its old time attention last week when two wells were put on production. The Richfield-Yorba well, as famous as Richfield itself, came back and is now a 75 barrel well. The Union Oil company completed a 500 barrel well on the Coyle & Bogue property. The well taps the deep sand at 4356 feet, and is making 26 gravity oil. The Petroleum Midway's recent completion, No. 15, on the Yarnell lease, is one of the best wells the old field has enjoyed for some time. The Yarnell well was finished at 4556 feet and is making 800 barrels daily of high gravity production. The Standard Oil company's deep test well on the Kraemer 1 property, is not showing anything particularly encouraging. At La Habra the La Habra Midway's test well has passed the 4700 foot mark without finding any oil showings of any importance. The well has made an enviable record for cable tool work and even though it should fail to get into the producing class, the stockholders will have the satisfaction of getting a run for their investment. The San Jose Hills field is showing a lot of activity. The Crittenden well will be ready for a production in a few days. This well was drilled to 2670 feet and plugged back to 2055 feet to test out a sand from 1950 to 2055 feet. Crittenden and associates expect a 250 barrel producer. The Santa Fe Puente Oil syndicate has been showing gas in quantity and for a couple of hundred feet the well has been look- One of the surprises for the past week was the bringing in of Gatty No. 1, on the Baker property, which came in at 4000 barrels, "under wraps," and the well is producing 31 gravity oil. This is the farhtest producer on the west side of the field, and proves up a great amount of property. The Standard Oil company's Wolfskill coming back on production a 500 barrel well will be welcome news to operators who have property in the northwest section of the field, especially the north side. A string of 4 1-4 inch casing set in the Wolfskill well effected a complete shut off and the well is making clean production. Brownrigg-Kellar No. 2 is showing something interesting geologically for the north side of the field. Brownrigg-Kellar No. 2 held the world's record for deep production a few months ago. The completion depth being 4762 feet. Brownrigg-Kellar No. 2, a location away to the north, is now drilling at close to 5000 feet and the well is not ready to be put on production. Santa Gertrudes No. 2 is making a splendid production record, flowing steadily at 2800 barrels daily. The Standard is making preparations to start three more wells on the property. The Amalgamated Oil company continues to make development history for Huntington Beach. A few months ago the Amalgamated Oil company took the lead in the deep development work and in a very short time has completed seven deep wells, whose production ranges from 1500 to 3000 barrels daily. One of these wells, Pearce No. 2, completed at 4949 feet, holds the world's record for deep production. Miley-Keck No. 29, the Amalgamated Oil company's latest completion, finished at 4143 feet, came in a 3400 barrel well, producing 28 gravity oil. The Amalgamated Oil company has made a wonderful record at Huntington Beach since the opening of the year, and its deep development production work has attracted statewide attention. The San Jose Hills field is showing a lot of activity. The Crittenden well will be ready for a production in a few days. This well was drilled to 2670 feet and plugged back to 2055 feet to test out a sand from 1940 to 2055 feet. Crittenden and associates expect a 250 barrel producer. The Santa Fe-Puente Oil syndicate has been showing gas in quantity and for a couple of hundred feet the well has been looking rather good. Drilling is now at 2800 feet and the good showings continue. The St. Helena's Petroleum company got some very good oil showings at 3470 feet on the Garbler test wel land has set a string of 8 1-4 inch casing. In keeping with the new work underway in the San Jose Hills the Pasadena-Puente Oil company has got new blood and new capital into its organization and is going ahead. The company recently let a contract to George Knight, a Long Beach operator, for the completion of the well. Furious development and sensational output characterized the situation at Long Beach last week. The Long Beach field now registers a daily production of 135,000 barrels, the greatest output the field has ever shown. It is getting to be the common thing to bring in wells ranging from three to five thousand barrels. This past week saw three thousand barrel wells go on production. A few weeks ago it was thought that Long Beach had reached the peak of production, but the peak has moved up, and no one even wants to speculate on what the field will be making even a month from now. The development of the northwest section of the field is yielding some wonderful wells, and there can be no estimate of the probable output of the Long Beach field until the northwest line limits have been established. The Henderson Petroleum syndicate shared in the big things at Long Beach a few days ago by bringing in 4500 barrel well on the Nancy proper. This is the biggest well that the Henderson interests has completed and puts the syndicate on the oil map as one of the leading producers in the field. The big Henderson well, Nancy No. 1, was completed at a depth of 3-856 feet and is producing 28 gravity oil. The Keck syndicates are making perfect repair work just club crews.

Last week the well astonished its owners with a gas production of seven million sumic feet per day. This week the gas pressure subsided considerably and the well is flowing into the sump hole a production estimated at 500 barrels. The Huntington Central Oil company has two producers now. No. 2, completed recently at 2775 feet, is on production, doing about 200 barrels a day. Old No. 1, one of the famous wells of the field, is still on production and paying dividends. No. 1 figured in the stock selling days of the Huntington Beach field and there are perhaps more people who hold stock in this well than any other one well drilled in southern California. The Republican Petroleum company brought in Huntington Beach's best northeast end producer a few days ago at 4430 feet. The New Republic Petroleum company's well is making 2100 barrels daily of 26 gravity oil. This is one of the best wells the Republic Petroleum company has been fortunate in securing and almost doubles the company's former production. The Shell Oil company is proving up the Ashton property for deep production. Ashton No. 1, redriled and shared in the big things at Long Beach a few days ago by bringing in 4500 barrel well on the Nancy property. This is the biggest well that the Henderson interests has completed and puts the syndicate on the oil map as one of the leading producers in the field. The big Henderson well, Nancy No. 1, was completed at a depth of 3.856 feet and is producing 28 gravity oil. The Keck syndicates are making wonderful records at Long Beach. The syndicates, five of them, were organized only a few months ago. Today two of them have production. Keck syndicate 3.1 started off last week at 5000 barrels and settled down to 4000 barrels steady production. This week Keck syndicate No. 5 was finished at 3700 feet and started off at 2000 barrels. The well, like others in the vicinity, will undoubtedly double its initial production and be making 4.000 barrels daily before the end of the week. The Shell Oil company set a new record for company activity and for the Long Beach field, when it completed and put on production in a single week two 5000-barrel wells. The first five thousand barrel producer was completed on the Nicholson property, the second on the Patton-Wilson property. Nicholson No. 2 was drilled to 4308 feet and Patton-Wilson finished drilling at 4388 feet. Both wells are making 29 gravity clean oil. The De Angelo Oil corporation had a pleasant surprise come its way when its No. 1 increased its production from 2000 to 3800 barrels. It seems the big wells at Long Beach have a way of increasing their output that is wonderful. The De Angelo Oil corporation is The primary object of the mine operators is mine accidents that or injury, although they that mining in California with other occupationally free from disasters Under the plan suggestors would visit each accident records and would remedy the app that individual mines were continued for with practical mine; the mine operators for results would be obtained attempt to enforce a logical list of safety rules alike. At least four officers, the mine operator needed for this task. The reason for inspectors is appears and operators hold who has had little experience in an unwarranted burden. It is desired that afforded against the life and maiming of the mines, and only experience in actual knows what definite means should be taken this result. Blanket safety ruining mining laws, which give the state governmen ANAHEIM GAZETTE Luck is turning for the Termescal Oil company. A few days ago a 2800 barrel well was completed by the Tehmescal Oil company on the Tucker-Johnson property. The new well was completed at 3700 feet. The Tehmascal figured prominently in the early development of the Long Beach field, but up until recently the luck seemingly was playing against it. All the United Oil company has to do to increase its Signal Hill production is to open up a few more wells on the Haas property. The latest producer on the Haas property, No. 2, was completed at 3907 feet and came in at 3700 barrels. The Haas property is proving to be one of the choicest leases in the northwest section of the field. A SIGN-A-MILE A sign-a-mile—on the transcontinental routes leading into southern California is the slogan adopted and put into effect by the Automobile Club of Southern California for the marking of the roads leading from the east to this part of the country. According to a report issued by automobile club officials, all road signs on trancontinental routes are now in perfect repair following a season of sign posting work just completed by club crews. This will be good news for motorists traveling either east from California or west to California from the east. All signposting work on the inland route to San Francisco has been completed from Los Angeles to the Fresno county line. New signs have also just been erected on the connecting road between the coast and inland mining, might well lead to interference and an endless amount of red tape. A bureaucratic system of government in business can only mean the stifling of initiative, investment and development. There is sound ground upon which a sane and right program for safe working conditions in mines can be advanced, the mine operators say, and that is less government in business and more business in government. STOCKS OF SWEET POTATOES IN STORAGE Storage stocks of 2,895,000 bushels of sweet potatoes on December 15, 1922, are reported to the United States department of agriculture by 1272 sweet potato storage houses in 22 states. Storage stocks December 15, 1921, in the houses reporting were 2.,985,000 bushels. The bulk of the potatoes reported in most of the states are in commercial warehouses, but in a few states a number of reports from farm storage houses are included. Increased storage stocks are shown in New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina. Decreased stocks are shown in Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Tennessee, Arkansas, Kentucky, Oklahoma, Texas, Indiana, Illinois and New Mexico. The storage capacity of the houses reporting was 6,496,000 bushels in 1922 compared with 6,179,000 bushels in 1921, an increase of 3 per cent. The total storage capacity reported represents about one-half the total storage capacity of the country. This is the first sweet potato storage report in a new service established by the United States department of agriculture with a view to giving producers a more comprehensive idea of the marketing situation. The next notice of stockholders meeting of the Stockholders of the Anaheim Citrus Fruit Association (a Corporation) will be held at the office of the said Corporation, 150 East Santa Ana Street, Anaheim, California, at 9:30 A.M., Thursday, February 1st, 1923, for the purpose of electing a Board of Directors to serve for the ensuing year, or until their successors are elected and qualified, and for the transaction of any, and all further business, which may be properly brought before the meeting.

This will be good news for motorists traveling either east from California or west to California from the east. All signposting work on the inland route to San Francisco has been completed from Los Angeles to the Fresno county line. New signs have also just been erected on the connecting road between the coast and inland routes from Famosa to Paso Robles. According to officials of the club sign-posting department, chart notes and new signs are now being made for marking the coast route from southern California to the Monterey county line. Starting Monday all roads in San Bernardino and Monterey counties are to be charted for renovation work on the signing system in these counties. Following completion of the work in San Bernardino and Riverside will come repair activity in Orange, San Diego and Imperial counties. Motorists will be glad to learn that road marking between Mecca and Blythe has also just been completed. New signs are now in place from Blythe to the Imperial valley via Wiley and Beall's Wells—a distance of about 66 miles. On the Old National Trails route leading from the east to California via Kansas City, the automobile club has placed over 500 signs over a distance of a little more than 2500 miles and including the branches of this route, which is sometimes known as the Santa Fe trail. SAFETY MEASURES Suggestions from mine owners and operators in California that the California industrial accident commission employ a larger number of mine inspectors and the application of safety measures to fit each individual mine, as a result of the Argonaut disaster, instead of blanket rules, which would mean a waste of effort and a handicap in developing California's second industry, have been received with approval in all mining districts of California. The primary object to be attained, the mine operators urge, is to prevent mine accidents that cause loss of life or injury, although the records show that mining in California, compared with other occupations, has been singularly free from disastrous accidents. SUMMER HOMES IN THE NATIONAL FORESTS If you want a summer home in the California mountains, at a nominal cost, it's high time you were getting busy, for the United States forest service reports that the choice lots in the national forests are going like hot cakes. At the close of 1922 there were 3401 recreation permits in effect on the national forests of the state, a gain of more than 15 per cent over the previous year. Of this, 3073 permits were for summer home sites, and 288 for hotels, resorts, municipal camps and other recreation features. The leading summer home forests are the Angeles and Cleveland in southern California and the Eldorado, Sierra, Stanislaus and Sequoia in the Sierra region. The 3400 recreation permits in the national forests of California return an annual revenue of more than $50,000 othe government, and the improvements made by permittees represent an investment of over $3,001,000.

Defendants. You Are Hereby Directed to Appear and answer the Complaint In an action entitled as above, brought against instead of blanket rules, which would mean a waste of effort and a handicap in developing California's second industry, have been received with approval in all mining districts of California. The primary object to be attained, the mine operators urge, is to prevent mine accidents that cause loss of life or injury, although the records show that mining in California, compared with other occupations, has been singularly free from disastrous accidents. Under the plan suggested, the inspectors would visit each mine, study the accident records and give orders that would remedy the apparent defects in that individual mine. If this system were continued for several months, with practical miners as inspectors, the mine operators feel that better results would be obtained than by an attempt to enforce a long and theoretical list of safety rules on all mines alike. At least four competent inspectors, the mine operators say, would be needed for this task. The reason for insisting on competent inspectors is apparent, mine owners and operators hold. The inspector who has had little experience in practical mining would be tempted to work by the book safety rules rather than by experience. Such a procedure would result in a hit or miss system of protection, which would be most ineffective in the saving of life, as well as an unwarranted burden on the industry. It is desired that protection be afforded against the destruction of life and maiming of men working in the mines, and only the inspector of experience in actual mine operation knows what definite and practical means should be taken to accomplish this result. Blanket safety rules and drastic mining laws, which would practically give the state government control of us home; When past are all our Aprils and Sept. tembers, When feet are weary, and no more may roam.
