Stine Farm.
The well in b!ie southwest corner ne
12-22-4 west, Stine farm, two and a
half miles south ot Garter, is being
watched very closely by the talent.
The gas and water at around 1610 l'eet
is making trouble and work slow, The
hole is now 1640 feet and au iffortis
being made to seat the 10-iuch at this
depth on a shell, There must be
several million feet of gas as it boils
up through 1200 feet of water. Reports
get started daily that there is a shew-
ing of oil at this well. Should tht
well make oil the writer would think
it another report until he saw it.

this developing oil lield, more correct-
ly known as wfldcat district, is G. T.
Braden et al, in the northwest corner
se 23-23 3 west, Weaver farm, as it is
getting down to a depth where they
may run into an oil sand. Rut bear
in mind when the test, wells were
started a year ago no one expected to
find oil under 3000 feet, since the oil
was found south of town at 1130 feet
most people has forgotten this and
call a- well a duster it dry at 2200 feet.
Braden has 2290 feet, of hole and is
underreaming the 8. nob at around

The South Field
In the shallow lield live miles soutti
of Garber there is much activity, but
not as much as one would si ~ months
ago have expected at this time. The
reason is simple. One oil company
owns most of the acreage andisdiih-
ing slow to define the shallow lield.
This company, the Sinclair Oil & Gas,
is now drilling only two wells that
might be called wildcats. In the
proven teriitory it has only seven wells
drilling The discovery well reactud
the pay sand September 9:h and begeu
tljwing oil the next day. Oilmen
rushed here by the hundreds to Buy
acreage but everything close in was
under lease. The shallow Held looked
to them to he a small pool and a well
over a mile of the discovery well they
'till consider a wildcat. The proven
territory so far is three-quarters of a
mile east and west and a quarter ot a
mile north and south. In this strip
of ground there are seven wells pump-
ing a iid-flowing natural into the tanks
And there are twelve strings of tools,
or wells drilling. Resides Sinclair's
seven strings of tools, Champlin ha.-
two strings, and the Kmp.re people
Perhaps there wouldn't
west of the discovery well, proving a
h ilt' mile of the field. The Empire
wells are ..ffseta to Champlin, On the
four farms that the proven territory
touches the seven producing wells, the
twelve strings of tools working, the
two derricks building, the two dozen
or more oil tanks, the water tanks, the
net work of oil lines, water liuts, and
gas lines, the numerous buildin, s
housing tools, boilers, and supplies,
and the many shacks, tents, and bunk
houses of che workmen, make quite a
showing indeed and a very interesting
spot to \isit.
