Y. OIL © Production in Fields Provide Supply, West of the City to’ Officials Declare; Other Improvements are Planned Probability of the New York Oil company establishing. a refinery in Casper means a third large modern refinery for this cuty and further establishes Casner as the great oil center of Wyoming. Officials last night. Such a modern ‘refinery will costs a million dollars, it. is estinvated by] oj] men here. Two other vast im- yrovements planned by the company for this fall or early winter Will bring the expenditures up to two aaron dollars, it is estimated. The first of these other improve- | ments is the possibility of the New York Oil company installing a gas Pipe line into the city from its fields 2t Poison Spider and Iron Creek west | of here. This would cost about $500.000. The other is the plan o put in a), The other is the plan to put in a of the gas fields, namely at Iron Greek, Poison Spider, South Casper Greek, Boone Dome and Pine Moun- , tain. ‘This means an exvenditure of apnrox#netely $500,080. ‘These will be ‘insteled vbout the time the gas line is built. With both the Poison Spider and Tron Creek fields belonging to tris company showing a large production and a possibility of the Boone Dome being a great producer, the New Yérk company began to plan a re- finery With which to handle*its own ou. The company hes seven pro- ducing wells in the Poison Spider re- gion and four producing wells in the Iron Creek field. | A test of the most recent well in thé Iron Creek field showed that it actually flowed 250 barrels. | The test on the Poison Spider well No. 5 of this company showed a flow of 12 barréls an hour for 15 hours dnd the pressuré remained the same as when the test started. Conserve- tive estimates of this well on section 12-33-83 are that it will average bet- ter than 250 barrels daily. The possibility of a gas pipe line being built to Casper this fall ‘will ~ give the city gas this winter, This thfs company in the Poison Spider dh Iron Creek fictés’ i “The wells of the New York Oit company combined show a test of! about 80 million feet daily. compurigon with this is the estimate thet the city and refineres combined | vill not use more than 80 million feet | day. ie city franchise for ges here iv owned by the Casper Gas company, | of which Frank G.

Oct. 1 ‘saw a big increase in the rental prices even in apart- ments, Hotels have boosted their prices, giving the excuse that the loss of re- venue from the sale of intoxicants forced them to raise prices, Prohi- bition brought a practical elimination + of the sale of liquors from hotel cafes, Hotel proprictors claimed | that they had to huve more moncy for their rooms to make up the BOBS of profit from the sale of intoxicants. | in general in the east have been | boosted in price.
