OIL FIELD NOTES Oil field operations reported for the week ending February 10, show 26 new wells started, compared with 40 previous week. The total new wells this year 193, compared with 159 same date last year. Tests for water shut-off 38, compared with 32 previous week. Yearly total to date 194; total to same date last year 165. Deepening and redrilling jobs 15, compared with 10 preceding week. Total to date this year 94; total to same date last year 81. Abandonments 7, same as preceding week. Total to date this year 28; total to same date last year 48. C. C. Julian is due for production in two wells at Santa Fe Springs in a few days. The famous No. 1 started to flow a few days ago, and for a while was "throwing a wicked stream." They were testing out for water shut off at 4383 feet, when the flow started. Efforts to get the well under control so that a string of tubing could be installed were met with difficulties. No. 4, the deep well, was passed for a water shut off at 4460 feet and is drilling ahead in the deep sand at 4485 feet. No. 1 and No. 4 are looking very good, and should do the C.. C. Julian company great credit. E. A. Lamb is bound and determined to get into the producers' column at Santa Fe Springs in spite of all the hard luck and difficulties he has had. Mr. Lamb has made a deal with Jack McKeon to put his No. 1 on production. McKeon takes the well over under somewhat discouraging conditions, but this is the kind of jobs the McKeon Drilling company thrives on. Lamb No. 1 at 3950 feet set a string of 8 1-4 inch, but failed to effect a complete water shut off. The deal with the McKeon company will be identified with Santa Fe Springs de-trouble to come back bring in a nice product. The Standard Oil company was rewarded with a nice ell at Huntington B-16, when a 3000 barrel well was completed at 4371 feet. The big producer is making 27 gravity oil and is one of the nicest wells of the east section of the field. The Standard Oil company's F-2 at 5010 feet got a sufficient showing of oil to warrant a producer and will set a string of 8 1-4 inch casing. Other deep wells of the Standard Oil company that are of interest are Pacific 1-A, Farnsworth 1 and Talbert 1. These wells are making splendid progress and they are all looking good enough to relieve the worry and anxiety about new territory. The Amalgamated Oil company has acquired the habit of setting the deep production records for the fields of southern California. A few months ago the company established a world record for Huntington Beach by the bringing in of a 4000 barrel well at 4949 feet. Now the Amalgamated Oil company leads the producers in the Santa Fe Springs field with a completion of Butterworth No. 4 at 4852 feet. While the Butterworth well is not a big producer, it is nothing to lose slyht of. It flowing 1400 barrels daily. Tscheppe No. 1 at 4828 feet is making preparations to go on production. Dalugge No. 1, the well that thrilled the Santa Fe Springs field several months ago at 4000 and 5000 barrels per day in the Bell sand, is going down to the Meyer sand. The Associated Oil company will be identified with Santa Fe Springs trouble to come back bring in a nice product.

Mr. Lamb has made a deal with Jack McKeon to put his No. 1 on production. McKeon takes the well over under somewhat discouraging conditions, but this is the kind of jobs the McKeon Drilling company thrives on. Lamb No. 1 at 3950 feet set a string of 8 1-4 inch, but failed to effect a complete water shut off. The deal with the McKeon Drilling company is considered a very wise move and Lamb and his associates will have some production soon. Mr. Lamb has sub-leased a portion of his remaining property to the Coalinga-Mohawk Oil company and work has started on the Mohawk well. In order to settle many conflicting reports on the biggest producer of high gravity oil ever brought in in the southern California field, the first day's production of the Petroleum Miday Oil company's Baldwin No. 1 was 9,400 barrels. The well started off with a rush and a roar and many thought it as doing from 15,000 to 20,000 barrels daily. The well completed itself at 4221 feet, that is, it was at that depth when the gas and oil pressure became so great that it started to blow out. There was no time to install a casing head and production connections. A clamp commonly known as a packing clamp was put on the drill pipe and the great flow of oil allowed to come up through 6 1-4 inch casing and around the drill pipe. The well, the greatest that the western oil fields has ever known, is producing from only 92 feet of sand. The gravity is the highest yet at Santa Fe Springs, being 37. This new Meyer sand well gives an inkling of the great possibilities the Meyer sand has in store for the Santa Fe Springs field. Interest in the north line of the Santa Fe Springs field will be maintained as long as the Stanard Oil company's Brownrigg-Keller continues making hole. Drilling is now at 5160 feet and at this depth there are not any very encouraging oil showings. Wolfskill No. 1, one of the important wells of the northwest section of the field and completed at 4800 feet, is back on production a 500 barrel well. The Union Oil company is making preparations to plug the deep test Flood well at Bellflower. Drilled to 5245 feet this well did not show any information in the foot that While the Butterfly Oil company is nothing to lose slyht of. It flowing 1400 barrels daily. Tscheppe No. 1 at 4828 feet is making preparations to go on production. Dalugge No. 1, the well that thrilled the Santa Fe Springs field several months ago at 4000 and 5000 barrels per day in the Bell sand, is going down to the Meyer sand. The Associated Oil company will be identified with Santa Fe Springs development henceforth. The Associated Oil company has just closed a deal for the much sought Clark property, recently proved to production by the Elliott Petroleum company's high gravity test well. Many big and flattering offers were made by companies, large and small, for the 55 acre Clark property. The fact that the Associated Oil companys' offer was accepted leads to the belief that it carries a big bonus and a generous royalty. Drilling on the south side of the Santa Fe Springs field will largely depend on what the Are-Bee syndicate finds in its test well now drilling close to 4700 feet. At 4660 some favorable oil showings are claimed. The success of the Are-Bee and surrounding wells seem to hinge on either the continuation of the Santa Fe Springs field or a new structure. Many oil experts do not hold the idea of either a new structure or a continuation and their intentions will be watched with interest as the Are-Bee proceeds. A report coming from a seemingly authoritative source has it that the Bandini Petroleum company has passed the 5200 foot mark on the Norswing property. It is understood that the showing, while not big, are encouraging, and that much time and expense is being devoted to the taking of core samples and keeping a very close watch over the formation changes. Vern Dumas and the Cal-Mex Oil & Refining company how have a second producer at Long Beach. The well is a real oil well and does credit to the company that went out into the north-west section of the Long Beach field and did the pioneering a year ago. Cal-Mex No. 2 was completed at 3315 and came in a 1300 barrel well of 24.5 gravity oil. While making a test of the water shut off at 3315 feet in the 8 1-4 inch casing, the well started to flow, and making such a splendid showing it was allowed to continue. Following is the first livered by Abraham battlefield at Getysbu 1863: "Four score and seven fathers brought forth a new nation, conceited dedicated to the problem men are created equaged in a great whether that nation, conceived and so deendure. We are met field of that war. We dedicate a portion of final resting place for gave their lives that live. It is altogether per that we should do." But, in a larger dedication, we cannot halt this ground living and dead, which have consecrated is fine power to add or detract will little note nor what we say here, but get what they did he living, rather than to the unfinished work fought here have thus vanced. It is rather dedicated to the great before us; that from good we take increase that cause for whicheful full measure of devotion highly resolve that not have died in vain under God shall have freedom, and that got people, by the people shall not perish from EXPECT FAVORABLE That favorable dehandled down by the California in the matters' salaries and acco is confidently expect hearing on the quest briefs were submittedthe case of Bayley Wines vs. Garrison Alameda county, last A brief resume of lowing the arguing fore the supreme court Beardsley, attorney ers, was received by M. Backs. Under the "dicta," The Union Oil company is making preparations to plug the deep test Flood well at Bellflower. Drilled to 5245 feet this well did not show any oil indications in spite of the fact that knowing ones claimed that the Union Oil company had a well, but was holding back until it could get all the property it wanted. People who know so little about oil development certainly do expose a lot of ignorance. It is a regular practice of many to abuse the big companies on a wildcat well. The same criticism is now being directed at the Union Oil company with reference to its Downey Community well. Huntington Beach came in for substantial production increases last week when the Globe, Holly and Standard Oil companies brought in big producers. The Globe started the good work early in the week with a 1275 barrel well, completed at a depth of 4880 feet at No. 2. This is the second big well for the Globe Oil company, and gives it a nice daily production now. The Holly Oil company has hit the stride of big production now and has its second well on production at 2600 barrels daily. The second Holly producer was completed at 4800 feet and is making a 24 gravity oil. E. J. Miley is not going to be cheated out of the big products at Huntington Beach. His State Consolidated No. 1 is showing oil at 4225 feet, and Refining company now have a second producer at Long Beach. The well is a real oil well and does credit to the company that went out into the northwest section of the Long Beach field and did the pioneering a year ago. Cal-Mex No. 2 was completed at 3315 and came in a 1300 barrel well of 24.5 gravity oil. While making a test of the water shut off at 3315 feet in the 8-1-4 inch casing, the well started to flow, and making such a splendid showing it was allowed to continue. It as the Cal-Mex Oil & Refining company that went out a mile from production a year ago and put up a rig on the Kirkpatrick property. The first well, while it did not come in a gusher, proved the field, and now this appears to be one of the most productive sections of the territory. The Bush-Voorhies Oil company is drilling a well on the Cadwell property that is of some interest to the operators and the field lying in the north central section. At 4700 feet the Cadwell project is not showing any oil or any very favorable indications and abandonment is being considered. At the Butler Community, the Bush-Voorhies company have reached a depth of 4080 feet and is busy determining the water conditions. The Fred B. Foster company's No. 37, formerly known as the California, was given a production try out at 3736 feet, but failed to make much of a showing. It is considered that the well was not deep enough and it is the intention of the Fosters to redrill and deepen the well at once. No. 38, formerly the Berry well, looks like the Fosters first big Long Beach well. Between 4368 and 4455 feet this well carried a high grade oil-sand and if nothing is found deeper, it will be no A brief resume of lowing the arguing of fore the supreme court Beardsley, attorney ers, was received by M. Backs.

F of the court, as exp Wilbur in the previo able decision is expe of the hearing stated Orange county offic ANAHEIM GAZETTE The deepening and redrilling of the former producing wells is going ahead very mildly in the Long Beach field. Among the wells scheduled for redrilling and deepening this week are the Calmont Oil company's Nos. 2 and 3, the Harvestreit-Baker company’s and three wells on the Shell Oil company’s holdings, Dobyns 2, 3 and Alamitos 1 and 3. Alamitos 1, now at 4510 feet, has been drilling in the oil sand for almost a thousand feet, and seems to have the making of a big producer. George F. Getty is also doing some redrilling and deepening, two of his wells, Nos. 1 and 2, are up for the deep sand. The Hub Oil company and the Leonard interests are due for new production soon. The Hub Oil company’s Rissman No. 2 at 3356 feet made a production test and showing of 300 barrels at 3355 feet. The Leonard well, on the Herwick 3 property started to flow while making water test at 3215 feet, and had to be plugged so as to carry it on further into the sand. The Lone Star Oil company got its first encouraging showing at 4010 feet. Up to this depth the well had not shown any indications, and the management were beginning to feel a little uneasy as to the outcome. LINCOLN AT GETTYSBURG Following is the famous speech delivered by Abraham Lincoln on the battlefield at Gettsburg, November 19, 1863: "Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war testing trouble to come back to this sand and bring in a nice producer." awaiting the final decision in this case and are hoping for a favorable opinion, as the increase in deputies to meet the growing needs of the county is said to be very great and work would be handicapped by a shortage of workers. PRAISE FOR FARM BUREAU Expressing confidence in the continued growth and prosperity of farm bureaus throughout California, Prof. L. B. Smith, assistant state leader of farm advisors, was entertained by H. H. Wahlberg, Orange county farm advisor, and his assistant, W. M. Cory, with a review of the activities of the agricultural extension service in this county. "Directors of California farm bureau boards represent the finest agricultural citizens in this state today," declared Smith. "Farm bureaus first were organized here in 1744 and given governmental impetus during the war. Since 1918 governmental energy has not put agricultural extension agents into new areas, but has waited for an invitation. "Despite this fact, the forty-one counties of California have the farm bureaus actively engaged in promoting the agricultural prosperity of the state at large. Not a county has allowed its bureau to die of inanition. "This is not true of all states where farm bureaus were organized, and more or less artificially kept alive during the war. "The last census said there were approximately 117,000 farms in California. The California federation of farm bureaus has a membership approaching 25,000. This is almost 25 per cent, and is not the result of forced membership drives, but rather the result of gradual enrollment of quality members." LINCOLN AT GETTYSBURG Following is the famous speech delivered by Abraham Lincoln on the battlefield at Getsburg, November 19, 1863: "Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men living and dead, who struggled here have consecrated is far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us; that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for whies they gave the last full measure of devotion; that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth." EXPECT FAVORABLE DECISION That favorable decisions will be handed down by the supreme court of California in the matter of county deputies' salaries and additional deputies is confidently expected following the hearing on the question in which the briefs were submitted and argued in the case of Bayley vs. Garrison and Wines vs. Garrison, test cases from Alameda county, last week. A brief resume of the situation, following the arguing of the briefs before the supreme court by Charles A. Beardsley, attorney for the petitioners, was received by County Clerk J. M. Backs. Under the "dicta," attached to a rule more or less artificially kept alive during the war. "The last census said there were approximately 117,000 farms in California. The California federation of farm bureaus has a membership approaching 25,000. This is almost 25 per cent, and is not the result of forced membership drives, but rather the result of gradual enrollment of quality members." THE FULLERTON OIL CLASS The Fullerton junior college draws a substantial part of its income from assessment on oil land in that district and the college trustees last year inaugurated a special "Oil Production Course" that is free of all charge to oil workers and is calculated to help the industry. The course is divided into three sections: Commencing with surveying, the students then take up the study of geology and finish the school year with a course of study of underground conditions in oil fields. The hours of stedy are from 9:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. daily except Saturdays, and these hours allow men on morning or afternoon tour to attend. A considerable number of oil workers are taking advantage of this chance to study the above subjects and several are driving a great distance every morning to attend the class. An opportunity for some new men to join the geology class will occur, and it is suggested that it will repay any young oil man to investigate what is being done at Fullerton.

Defendants. You Are Hereby Directed to Appear and answer the Complaint In an action entitled as above, brought against you in the Superior Court of the Coun is confidently expected following the hearing on the question in which the briefs were submitted and argued in the case of Bayley vs. Garrison and Wines vs. Garrison, test cases from Alameda county, last week. A brief resume of the situation, following the arguing of the briefs before the supreme court by Charles A. Beardsley, attorney for the petitioners, was received by County Clerk J. M. Backs. Under the "dicta," attached to a ruling on a case from San Diego county, handled by the supreme court recently, it was stated that in event of a question arising in the matter of increasing the salary of any deputy of any county officer or of any officer increasing the number of his deputies during the term of office would be held to constitute an increase in his salary during his term, which is unconstitutional. Due to the fact that this decision, it was thought, would work a hardship in growing counties, an effort has been made to seek a reversal of the view expressed in the "dicta" and the cases were filed by Alameda county with this object in view. In the first case, that of an increase in the salary of a deputy, Justice Wilbur, speaking for the court, stated that the decision of the San Diego case does not affect this as deputies have no fixed term of office, but were appointed at the pleasure of the principal. The matter of the increase in the number of deputies of a county officer was also presented and this was taken under advisement. From the attitude of the court, as expressed by Judge Wilbur in the previous case, a favorable decision is expected, the report of the hearing stated.
