or the most valuable leases in the
entire Mid-Continent field. The
'bringing in of a 140 barrel well by
. the Magnolia company in the Wade
: sand at 3900 feet gives the lease
1 four producing oil levels and there
; are two more possible sands. The
McKenna lease has been producing
from the Fortuna sand at 2300 feet
j for a number of years. The lease
has a good well In the Olson sand
at 3300 leet and the Rowe sand well
tat 3400 feet was the best producer
jon the lease and one of the highest
'producing wells ln the field.
; Last week the Magnolia company
drilled In a 140 barrel well with
standard tools on the McKenna
lease in the Wade sand. This ten
acre lease on the McKenna farm
now has four producing wells at
different levels. The McKenna

the 5500 and 6003 feet sands which
are producing in the Cement field.
McKenna is the luckiest land
owner in the Cement field. Besides
hta farm lie now lias two wells on
town blocks ln Cement. The first
McKenna townslte well was drilled
on black 16 which is just south of
the highway as you enter Cement.
This well was given a potential of
2346 barrels a day. McKenna No.

block 37 just east of the first well.
This came In for 3051 barrels. The
producing structure In the Cement

not extending over two locations
wide.
McKenna also struck It lucky on
the northwest extension of the Ce-
ment field and now has some good
producing royalty In that area of
field. McKenna always had faith
In the Cement structure and added
to hta holdings when other oper-
ators thought the field was about
