Be-} sides there are ten working tanks each having a capacity of 1,200 bar- ' rels, two 10,000 barrel acid tanks, nu 1,000 barrel agitator and a fuel tank of 10,000 barrels capacity. A double track has been put in at the: railroad and a loading rack 200 feet long will permit the loading of 12 tank cars at a time. Two large water wells have been sunk at the river’s edge and pumping machinery installed to insure a plentiful supply of water at all times. The entire plant, buildings grounds, are well illuminated by a private electric plant. Experien®ed oil men who have visted the plant have pronounced it to be one of the very best they ever saw.
