COLUMBIA BRINGS IN THIRD GUSHER The Columbia property of the Petroleum Midway is proving a wonderful sand property. Two big wells have been on production for several weeks. This past week a third well has brought in, Columbia 2-1. At 5010 feet the third producer is making 1650 barrels, 24 gravity. Towards 4, at 5000 feet set a combination string and will be the Petroleum Midway's next producer. The Shell Company put Ashton 3 back a 2500 barrel producer. Redrilling and cleaning out to 5020 feet resulted in the return of the 24 gravity producer. Ashton 2 stopped drilling at 5025 and is making preparations to go on production. With the bringing in of a 700 barrel well by the Hub Oil Company at Torrence the field takes on a new aspect. The Hub producer now the largest in the field was completed on the Smith property at a depth of 3605 feet. The well is producing 18 gravity oil. The Standard Oil company's Torrence No. 3 announced in the press last week ago a 1100 barrel well is doing 500 barrels, the product is running 25.6 gravity, and from the standpoint of quality and quantity it is the field's best well so far. At La Mirada the Nevada-Ventura Oil Syndicate is drilling out the cement and going ahead. At 3938 a string of 8 I-4 was set, and the condition of the hole is the best for going ahead and making a deep test. The Seal Beach Oil Company did not set the string of 8 I-4 as announced last week. A decision was reached on the part of the management to go ahead and find unmistakable showings if possible before the landing of pipe. At 4800 the formation is running in brown shale and streaks of mud. The hope of the Seal Beach field now seems to lie in the finding of a deep sand. In my survey of the oil fields of Southern California this week I found a general slowing down of development work. The big operators are closing development work down and all properties owned outright and will confine drilling to proper drainage. 33 NEW WELLS START The January, 1923, "Summary of Operations—California Oil Fields", the seventh monthly chapter of the Eighth Annual Report of the State Oil and Gas Supervisor, is now ready for distribution.

It is made from Cream of Tartar and is absolutely pure. You could dissolve a couple of teaspoons of Royal in water and drink it with benefit. That's a health test mighty few baking powders can meet." The doctor was right.
