Saturday, February 19, 1921 WATER & SAND IN MILEY-KECK WELL (Huntington Beach Field.) Last week it was expected that the Miley-Keck well, across Main-street from the high school, would be in the producing column this week, but that hope has not yet been realized, as the well so far has been producing more water than oil, and some doubts are entertained as to whether the water shut-off was successful or not. There has also been more or less trouble with sand, and the well has not had much of an opportunity to show its true condition, as to water. There is a possibility that the water may disappear with a more exhaustive test that has yet been made. There are two new companies in the field this week, being the Sun Oil Co. and the Pantages Huntington Oil Co. Lumber is being delivered for a rig on block 1101, Vista Del Mar tract, Alabama avenue, between Lincoln and Knoxville streets, for the Sun Oil Co. The location for the Pantages Huntington Oil Co. is on the east side of Huntington-ave, between Quincy and Rochester. The lumber for these rigs is being furnished by the E. K. Wood Lumber Co. Standard Oil Co. The Surf well, east of the city limits on the flats, holds the front of the Standard Oil stage this week, and will be the next producer for that company, providing the water has been shut off, and those in charge think that it has been. The work of bringing in this well was started Tuesday morning, and it was expected to be in the limelight before this time, but there has been some delay, but it is likely to start flowing any time, and it is being predicted that it will be among the valuable wells of the field, and is about 2750 feet. The work of drilling in the famous Bolsa Chica is progressing, but it will probably be some time before the well is again on production. The work of rigging up D-1 and E-1 is progressing, and both wells will be spudded in shortly. Bolsa No. 3 was cemented Saturday at about 2000 feet, a little deeper than No. 1 and Bolsa No. 2 is drilling at about 200 feet. A-4 north of Reservoir hill, is reamountered, and reaming is being done through a preventer, the first one to be installed in the field—a valve with isbestos lining and a rubber that fits closely around the drill pipe to prevent the well blowing out and getting away from the drillers, like Bolsa No. 1, about three months ago. Between 100 and 500 feet of screen casing was on the racks Thursday morning. This well may come in Sunday or Monday. Drilling continues in A-5 and A-6 with rotary tools at about 2750 and 2250 respectively, and the indications are that they will be given a chance at production in a short time. A-8 stands cemented, and A-5 is drilling at about 1200 feet. B-2, the most southerly well in the field, about one-half mile west of Discovery well, is rigging up. The redirigation of Torrance No. 1 near the Bolsa Chica club house, is going at about 1800 feet. Well No. 1, Jones community, southeast of Bolsa No. 1, was drilling Thursday morning at about 1850 feet and a line showing of gas and oil colors. Union Oil Co. The well being drilled on the W.T. Newland ranch, the deep well of the field, still continues to be a "good looker," but Supt. K., A. Hoxey may object to it traveling more than a thousand feet deeper on looks alone, and put it off the train if it fails to show any oil sands to pay its fare. The formation is the same brown scale that has been in evidence for the past six weeks,and looks as though there must be some oil sands somewhere in the vielynth, and the drill is likely to hit the pay streak any time. This well is now approximately 4200 feet deep. Well No. 1 on the Copeland community, was about 2500 feet deep Thursday morning. Amagnated Oil Co. The fishing job at well No. 1, north of Reservoir hill, continues. The work of milling out the iron is being done with rotary drill collars,a tool with teeth, which cut the obstructing metal. The cement was being drilled out of No. 2,south of the hill Thursday morning. Well No. 1 on the Fowler lease was drilling Thursday morning at 2850,and Field Supt.F.D.Parr stated that casing would likely be set at about 2000 feet, whether the oil indications warrant it or not.

COUNTY ASSESSOR DESCRIBES METHODS Methods by which County Assessor James Sleepe arrives at the valuations of property in order to levy what he considers just assessment, are featuring the suit of the Birch Oil Co. against the county to recover taxes paid under protest. The oil company is seeking to recover $11,173.86 representing the taxes paid for the fiscal year ending in 1918 and 1919. The company also asks that the assessment levied on its property be declared void as to any amount in excess of $150,000 and a tax of $4,020. Assessor Sleepe testified that he first determined the market price of oil per barrel and then deduced so much for cost of production. This... The oil company is seeking to recover $11,173.86 representing the taxes paid for the fiscal year ending in 1918 and 1919. The company also asks that the assessment levied on its property be declared void as to any amount in excess of $150,000 and a tax of $4.020. Assessor Sleeper testified that he first determined the market price of oil per barrel and then deducted so much for cost of production. This, he said, would figure the net profit. He then capitalized the profit figure ten times to get at the value. Then, he said, he would take forty per cent of this amount for assessed valuation purposes. Sleeper was questioned as to how he got at the valuation of other oil properties and real estate values in general. He said that everything that effects values of real estate has to be taken into consideration. He admitted that he does not get any specific statements from owners of property as to their net income. He said he made inquiries among real estate men and property owners to get at valuations and then figured on a percentage basis. Dist. Atty. Nelson has requested the board of supervisors to attend every session of court during the trial if possible so that they may be called upon to testify or answer questions. RECORD PACKING SEASON C. W. Post, manager of the Mcpherson Heights Citrus association, presenting his annual report to the directors of the organization today, stated that the past season showed the largest returns that had ever been paid to the growers of the association, although the number of boxes actually shipped was considerably less than in 1919. In the past season there were shipped, Post stated, 130,840 packed boxes of valencias, representing approximately 283 carloads, of 462 boxes each. This netted the growers of the association $591,459.98, an average of $4.52 per packed box. Mary E. Coons, notary public, 207 R. Center St. Phone 114. Markets L. A.
