KANSAS OPERATIONS ON BOOM, BiG WELLS COME IN, WILDCATS DBILLING , WICHITA, Kansas, Feb. 6.—While scores of oil companies are carry the most uggressive “wild catting paign in the history of Kansas, owners of ucreage in the proved fields of the state are completing an unusually large number of wells, considering the time of the year. Always before, operations have been greatly retarded by cold weather, but this winter the operators huve ignored zero temperatures and ex: orbitant prices of oil well supplies. Oil at $3 4 barrel has stimulated develop- ment in both deep and ‘shillow field of the state: The only thing that stands in the way of further increases in’ drill- ing is the scarcity @f casing. Oil well supply brokers are now receiving enor- mous premiums for casing. Prices of 40 to. 60 per cent over the list prices are not uncommon. The oututunding developments of the week in Kansas include the Sinclair company’s 300-burrel well extending the Mull tie of western: Greenwood county thwee-qugrters of a mile north, the Ohio Gitles Gas company's 1,400-barrel well in the.

The fact is that it is impossible to state necurately the percentage of salt water lease or a given well would make, becduse a well will make a different percentage of salt water ac- that a given cording to the way in which it operated, For illustration, if one of the very large wells in the Homer field, | making anywhere from 25,000 to 35,000 barrel¢ a day, should be opened wide, with no ;back pressure, it might make a very large percentage of salt water. On the other hand, it might be quite possible to cramp this well back to say 1,000 }Wurrels a day, or even 5,000 barrels a! day, maintaining a substantigl . back it might | or a very which might be capable of pressure on the well; and er.
