AGENCIES WILL FORM
OIL STORAGE ADJUNCT
New Company Is to Take Care
of Surplus from Indepen
dent Producers
BAKBRBFIBLt), April B.—When the
Kern county and Coalinga agencies
are merged and become one organiza
tion, which ait will tako place next
week, immediate steps will be taken
by the new organization to form a
storage ("ompany for the purpose of
takJng Bare of all surplus oil that may
como upon the hands of the organized
independents.
The plan and detail of this storage
adjunct have been thoroughly thought
out and digested by the hands of the
agencies, consequently its forming will
be in the nature of a ratification of
■what has already taken place. In fact,
the matter has gone so far on tile
way of consummation that steel for i
million and a. quarter barrels of stor
age lias already been ordered.
The plan of the storage company
and Its manner of financing will be
along the lines of tha Producers Trans
portatlon company. Kach producer
or member of the agency will be given
a chance to take stock and thereby
share In tho profits of the enterprise.
Charges a barrel for storage, sufficient
to guarantee a legitimate profit on the
Investment, will bo made, as in the
trail portatlon company. In addition,
fuinir win be provided to advance on
oil in storage in case the producer
finds need of money.
It la the plan of the storage company
to maintain storage capacity In all
tha fields sufficient to meet emergen
cies, particularly such emergencies as
the »rusher or— but th« bulk of
tho storape capacity will be erected
at or near Tidewater, near tho termi
nal of the Producers' pipe line.
By maintaining a large quantity of
oil In storage, the agency will be able
to land and take care of largo con
tract! guaranteeing delivery, and by
advancing funds to Its members on the
oil In storage it will bo enabled to
maintain tha storage nacaaaaiy. An
effort was made by a committee ap
pointed by both agencies to arrange
for loans from a syndicate of banks
on oil In storage, but them was so
much rod tape Intorposed by tho money
lenders that tha new plan was formed.
This Is but one of the many steps
which tho Independents have lately
taken to strengthen their position, and
the consummation of the plans now
being worked out will make them im
pregnable to assault. Th« organiza
tion stands today at tho head of the
marketing concerns of crude oil.
ROTARY SYSTEM RECEIVES
THOROUGH TEST IN NORTH
The rotary systom of drilling an oil
■well Is belli* tried out In the Coallnga
field. Them baa been work on that
linn for over two yearn. 8. A. Oul
berson, Jr., used a rotary on well No.
t, 26-20-14, with success as far as the
drilling was concerned. The water
problem In that section of the Reid
lims not been solved and some trouble
wns experienced.
The Southeastern limited Oil com
pany, lection 18-20-16, used a rotary
to about MOO feet with marked suc
cess. Superintendent Tom Whalley op
erated the Johnston rotary and shut
off the water with ten-Inch casing.
The. Nathan lease, not th« Arizona Oil
company, 7-30-15, has used the rotary
on two wells.
The Kern Trading and Oil company
has used the rotary on five wells,
drilled and ,oiut off the water. The
rotary company operating here nan en
tered Into a contract with the Coalings
Security Oil company, operating on
section 8-SO-16, to drill and complete
three wells.
These will be the first wells in this
flill to be completed with a rotary rig,
and the work is being watched with
Interest, as the contract on well No.
1 li to drill and complete the well
within ninety days.
SANTA FE BLUFF WELL
IS PROBABLY A WINNER
BAKERSFIELD, April 7. — How
much oil has the Santa Fe in Its well
on section 15 on the bluff? Is being 1
asked. Nobody but the Santa F(!
knows, and It Isn't telling:, but some
times actions speak louder than words,
and Just now the actions of the Santa
i\ are significant.
That corporation Is closing Its options
on lands In tho Immediate vicinity of
the well, and already It has paid cash
for 1500 acres on which It had options
running from $10 at $200 an acre. Only
running from $10 to $200 an acre for
a forty-acre tract belonging to Mrs. J.
Albert Smith, and other offers have
been made.
The water In the, well -keeps all
knowledge of conditions from the pub-
He, but It Is quite evident that the
Santa Fe believes that land out on the
buff Is worth a somewhat higher figure
,than if It could be, used only for the
growing of oranges or strawberries.
OIL EXCHANGE WILL BE
ORGANIZED AT BAKERSFIELD
BAKERSFIELD, April B.— Mon
day evening next men Interested In
oil and oil stock trading will meet here I
to organise a stock exchange for Ba
kersfleld.
The call has bean sent out and It Is
signed by W. H. Hill, W. S. Boggs and
B. A. Hayden.
At the meeting Monday the prelim
inary steps will be taken looking to
netting the exchange on Its feet, and
a big attendance Is expected.
Membership, It Is stated, will be re
stricted to 200 and it Is certain now
that the list will be more than tilled.

DOWN 400 FEET
The Starlight, operating on section
21 at McKittrick, is down 400 feet and
is in the tar sand. The territory here
is believed to bo shallow and oil men
think that tho sand will be encoun
tered at less than 1000 feet.
The Starlight, which is an Oakland
concern, Is located more than two
miles from any well and If oil is dis
covered it will add materlully to the
developed Held of McKittrick.

100 DERRICKS RISE
ON WITHDRAWN LAND
Locators in Frantic Effort to
Save Claims Rush Ma
terial to Domain
CAKERSFIELD, April 7.— Not fewer
than 100 new wells started drilling- and
fully 1000 new derricks erected on pub
lic land since the withdrawal order of
the secretary of the interior last Sep
tember Is the estimate <<( W. H. Hill
of Barlow & Kill, map makers, and the
figures are declared to be conservative
by J. U. Zumwalt and others who are
familiar with the development in wild
cat territory on the Midway and Me-
Klttrick front.
The discrepancy between th.- number
of derricks built and the number of
drills actually at work is explained In ,
part by th'! fact that in a large part of
the new territory it is practically Im- |
possible so far to get water and other •
necessities for drilling, and it Is due in
part tn the extreme haste with which i
all the work has been done. Locators
In their frantic efforts to save their
claims from Jumping first put men in
possession, then they built cabins, and
then derricks. With men on the ground
and a derrick up, thy have felt com
paratively safe from Jumpers, and are
taking 1 a little breathing spell— some
coses enforced by lack of money and in
other effsso by impossibility to get ma
terials. The work of erecting derricks
Is going' on as frantically as ever, anil
one must make almost dally trips
through the fields to keep track of the
development work.
"1 used to be able to tell about where !
I nils in the field by looking at the
derricks," said Mr. Hill, "but 1 can't do
It now. They are going up too last to
keep track of."
Mr. Hill says that rig timbers and
materials for derricks are being rushed i
to the Devil's Den old fields, as well as
to SlcKittriek and Midway. . If there ,
is any possible oil land in any of the
fields that has been overlooked It must
have been hard indeed to find, and lo
cators generally have the Idea firmly
fixe 1 In their minds that locations must \
be followed up with actual development
work.
Consequently, unless there Is positive
action by congress that finally settles j
the question of oil land disposal, all the
land located probably will be developed
to the extent necessary to obtain pat
ent upon It. I'robably this land will
aggregate twelve townships in the
Devil's Den and fourteen townships in
the Mldway-Sunset-McKlttrick district,
with 144 quarter sections in each town
ship and a well on every quarter sec- [
tion, a total of upward of 2000 wells
which must be drilled to prove this ter
ritory and obtain patents.
MASCOT MINE WORKS
NONE BUT AMERICANS
DOrrJI.AS, Aril., April R.—The Dos
CabesaS mining region, north of Doug
las, is experiencing » boom peculiarly
American. Manager Ely of the Masi ■>'
Copper company has put on »ixt\
miners at the company's bis plant, and
he has SO far adhered to his policy not
to hire s dingle Mexican for work
either above or below ground.
The result la a boom at the canif.

The Mascot company will begin to
erect a small smelter at the base of

PACIFIC STATES BRINGS
IN WELL AT COALINGA
COALINQA, April I.— The Pacific
States Oil company, 6, 21-15, Is pulling
the 8-Inch casing In well No. 1 to per
forate. The well was brought, in on
Thursday and will be tested out as
soon as the perforation* are made and
the casing put in the hole again,
The Wartthan Oil company, which
is drilling on a ISO-acre piece In the
Wurtthan canyon, is now 340 feet in
12-inch cat Ins, Tne bit has not yet
struck a water sand, but has penetrat
ed a shell formation and is now in a
sandy clay. The directors and those
who have watched the progress and
geology of the territory closely are
certain that a large quantity of oil
will b« struck at a depth of less than
1000 feet.
The drillers are making progress and
expect to reach the depth mentioned in
about six weeks--. C. N. Root, a well
known driller in the, Coalings field, is
the superintendent of the property.
SMOOT'S BILL IS FAULTY
A dispatch from Washington says the
Smoot bill would allow the secretary
of the interior to set aside to one per
- son or company 1280 acres of oil land
; for exploration, but upon discovery
! only the present mining claim can be
patented. The bill has other fe-itures
which are considered faulty from the
standpoint of western ideas, but it is
expected that amendments will be se
cured.
Crown Oil company's Ventura well
No. 1 was 850 feet deep Saturday. As
depth Is gained the gas pressure in
creases. Within the next few days It is
expected the first oil sands will be en
countered at a depth of about 1000 feet.
The company Intends to sink the well
into the third oil sands, which are re
lieved to be about 1500 feet below the
surface. All of the lumber for the com
pany's Midway property haH been de
livered and an order placed with the
OH Well Supply company of L,o.s An
geles for a complete standard shilling
equipment, which is to be delivered
within fifteen days. Rig builders now
employed by the Midway Five Oil com
pany will build the crown derrick and

Welcome Words to Women jt &
Women who suffer with disorders peculiar to their - H!#!i^r"""^«i
sex should write to Dr. Pierce and receive free the j*V B^fi^^Swl
advice of a physician of over 40 years' experience £?]) jJSSgjyjjfcffiaL I
— a skilled and successful specialist in the diseases V^J^WBpKEBmB^
of women. Every letter of this sort has the most afl |B vB mSfiffH
careful consideration and is regarded as sacredly Xss|f W
confidential. Many sensitively modest women write Ml 'S
fully to Dr. Pierce what they would shrink from $*L^f!ttf§\^a\L
telling to their local physician. The local physician J^EMfflmußulvl__/[
is pretty sure to say that he cannot do anything |PSg6S§BlllBK^M
without "an examination." Dr. Pierce holds that f l i&£&fiL£Miaf3i\\Xu&~
these distasteful examinations are generally need
less, and that no woman, except in rare cases, should submit to them.
Dr. Piorce's treatment will cure you right in the privacy of
your own home. His " Favorite Prescription" has cured
hundreds of thousands, some of them the worst of cases.
It is the only medicine of its kind that is the product of a regularly graduated
physician. The only one good enough (hat its makers dare to print its every
ingredient on its outside wrapper. There's no secrecy. It will bear examina
tion. No alcohol and no habit-forming drugs are found in it. Some unscrup
ulous medicine dealers may offer you a substitute. Don't take it. Don't trifle
with your health. Write to World's Dispensary Medical Association, Dr. R.

CRIPPLE RESISTS ARREST
Angered because he was approached
by an officer who ordered him under
arrest, Geodgo Harris, a one-legged
man, used his crutch as a means of
offense and attempted to strike Patrol
man Gregory last night. So strenuous
were the efforts of the cripple that it
required the combined exertions of four
men to subdue, handcuff and take him
to the central station.
