Mr. COSMO OIL STRIKE STIMULATES ACTIVITY Devil's Den Region Is Advertised Through Success of Well on Section 31 Tlio strlko of the Cosmo Oil com pany, section 31, 25-19 in the Devil's Diii, about two weeks ago, has stimu lated activity in tliut area. Tlio Pluto drilling two miles to the north on section 19, 25-19, is resuming work after a shutdpwn of several months, and the Walker Oil company, on sec tion 29, adjoining tho Cosma at the northeast corner, la also planning to start drilling. The Pluto has a hole 1500 foot deep, cased with twelve and a half Inch casing. The shutdown was caused by a shortage of funds. Work was sus pended during- the winter to perfect an arrangement with owivrs of tmrround lng properties for the completion of the well. A conference was held in Coalinga at which a satisfactory ar rangement was made. The Walker Oil company, -which was formerly the Two Step, has had a complete drilling rig on the ground for some time past and the showing In the Cosmo has induced the owners to begin operations. The Cosmo strike has raised the hopes of those Interested In the dis trict. The quality of the sand is said to be good and at last accounts there were more than thirty feet of it. It is a heavy oil hut the managers will not stop to exploit tho stratum, it be ing their belief a lighter sand is but a short distance away, and they are drilling for It.

One of the directors vehemently contradicts the report that emanated from Fresno to the effect that the company has a, producing well The directors have hopes of success, but that Is nil that can be cald so far. The further development will he eagerly watched as a strike so far ea*t would start many drills dropping In the vicinity. One oil man who Is watching events on the border of the Kern river «eld predicts that the field will be extended over a third more territory within another year. Other companies are drilling on sections "2 and 24, on the east side of the field, and lumber for a new rig Is on the ground on section 8, 28-28.

BOYCHESTER ENTERS PROMISING STRATUM Sand Is Believed to Be Same as That of Commercial Gusher According to a report rocelvoi jreiterday from Coallnga th© Boychcfitor on section 18, 21-23, lms ciit'icil the oil sand at 2306 feet and lfl preparing to shut off the water. The well Ih four feet Into the sand. This sand tallies with the sand encountered In the Consolidated at 1210 fert. The Consnll- dated, however, did not make a test of Its wall at this depth, as the drillers did not shut off the water. Charles B. Spurllng, superintendent of the Consolidated, has compared these two sands and says they look alike and that these sands may be the came as the gusher sand the Commercial got on section 12, adjoining, at a depth of 1430 feet three years ago, which re sulted In a production of 1000 barrels for more than a week, the oil shooting 200 let above the derrick. . / The Valley Oil company, drilling the farth est out on the CcaJinca "at, which en countered the oil sand at 8280 feet several months ago, has finally succeeded In shutting off the water, It Is said, and this company la now erecting derrick for well No. 2. This property lies right at the city limits of the city of Coallnga, The De Luxe, In section 6, 21-15, Coallnga, has cemented off No. 2 at a depth of 2433 feet. The Coalinga Crude, regardless of the very hard formation the drill Is now working; In, in reported to be making; considerable head- way. Well No. 6 of the New York Coalinga Is meeting; with success In th» third sand. The oil hers Is 16 gravity and as there Is lots of gas In the stratum the oil Is easily handled. The New York people were the first to enter the third sand or to develop therein and the success of No. 6 adda greatly to the estimate placed on the other properties of the section which are yet operating In the upper sands. A test well drlllled some time ago shows that there are five or six oil sands In this section, but the third is believed to be tho most pro- Ilfllo of them all. The Coallnpa Central has shut off Its water In wells 6 and 6 and will soon brlnic them In. The Central Is located In section 12, 20-14. 100 MEN WORK ON NEW STANDARD PIPE LINE FROM KERN TO MIDWAY More than 100 men are at work laying the new pipe line of the Standard Oil company from the Kern river field to Midway. A camp has been established near the big reservoir, on section 2. More than four miles of pipe have been screwed and ditched, and double that length received and strung along the right of way. Pipe la arriving regularly, and with about 100 men in the tong and ditch- Ing gangs, rapid work will be accom plished. Work began at the station on section 7 in the Kern river field. The route of the line parallels the present Midway line. It should be in operation in less than sixty days, as no new stations are to be constructed, the present pumping plants will be In creased in whatever manner Is neces sary to handle the traffic on both lines.
