Case, issued in connection with the annual report to stock- holders, sets forth the depression that obtained in the oll tndustry during the year. During the 12 menths 84 wells were drilled on Salt Creek lands in which the New York has a royalty or working interest, bringing the total number of wells In which the company Mag interests up to 248. The drilling program for 1935, it is stated, calls for approx- imately 500 additional wells fn Salt Everyman’s Something to Think About. The newspapers the other day carried a story about one of the most successful operators on the New York~ Steck Echange. This man according to the account had enriched his friends enywhere from five thousand to a million dollars by trading for them in the market dur- ing the recent upturn in stocks. The story was printed all over the coun- try and was widely commented upon. Moreover it was a true story. The facts were as stated. But it had one unfortunate effect im that it led to the bellef that what had been done by one man could be done by others. From the four quar. ters of the United Stqtés and Crom Canada as well a flood of lettera boured in upon the opergtor whg Was the central figure in this story and these letters had al! one common burden. That was a request that he would take tite money of the writers, invest it In stocks and re turn hundred and a thousand fold, Alwa the writer had @ good rea- son neeging the money, Some times it wag sickness and sometimes it was débté and eometimes it wes something else but one and all. they were confident that thelr financial Problems could be ealved by specu: lation. One letter was pecullatly pathetle. It was from a woman who had saved $50 and wanted to risk it, although she did r know it was a risk, in stocks. Now opinions may differ a3 to the morality of apeciiiation, 1 am no* prepared to pass upon that at this time and in thie place. What! perfod Inst holders Mon “ay, Creek, of which nearly 100 will be on lands in which the New York Oll company has interests, Atten- tion fs called to the importance of the Lakota sand discovery wells of the Midwest, in which the New York has royalty interests, promising good returns for many years to coms when the lower of! horlzon Is developed. “The company has developed black oi] in seven wells {n the Pol- gon Spider field tn the Sundance sandstone," the report says, “and in one well in South Casper Creek in the Tensleep wand. The present pro- duction is approximately 4,000 bar- rels per month, which {s run to the Midwest Refining Company thru the Fargo Western Oi] Company's Pipeline from the Polson Spider field to Casper. This production can be greatly increased when war- ranted by field and market condi- tions. The company has patented and leased lands aggregating approx- imately 2,008 acres tn these ifelds which are believed to lle within the Productive arear for the black oil. “In Iron Creek the company has developed green ofl in four wells in the Dakota sand. The preseft avail able production {s approximately 1,500. barrels per month. This pro- duction can also be increased when warranted. “At Boone Dome the deep test well was shut down in December on ac- count of the severity of the weather and the freezing up of the water sup- ply, Drilling operations will be re- sumed in the Spring. The well ts at a depth of 4,834 feet with a straight hole. Gas ent Development “At the end of the year the com- pany. was supplying gas to §,310 do- mestte and industrial consumers in Casper, Evansville and viciatty, an increase of 505 during the year. Ade- quate service has been and is being maintained. During the year 4% miles were added to the distribution system, making a total of 59.45 miles “In September the company pur- chased the large gas compression Plant ef the Fargo Western Oj! company fn the Poison Spider field. Tt is operating this plant and pump- ing gas from the Poison Spider and South Casper Creek fields to Cas- per. The Boone Dome field, where the Company has four gas wells, is held as a reserve deposit. No addi. Hea Lee made during the year to pany's 4434 mile gas pi Une to Casper. 5 ete “During the year the com: purchased 120 acres, acquired aa ties on 286 acres and leages aggre- gating 820 acres in Kevin-Sunburet field, Montana; leases on some 4,700 acres of patented land in likely oi! structures in Kansas; and 320 acres near the new oll strike in the Fort Collins field !n Colorado, All of these interests were acquired ad- vantageously for the company and at small cost. It has also acquired leases approximating 8.000 acres ir the Aberdeen-Hoquiam structure in the State of Washington, on advan- tegeous terms. “We are pleased to advise you that the Company has at last paid off the indebtedness under which !t has been laboring for the past four years. Final payment on the “Stock” roy- alty purchase, amounting to $198,- 800.04 was made on Decemlrr 31, 1924. No new indebtedness was in- curred during the year, and expen- ditures have been confined to neces- sary developments, additions and ex- tensions. The company ts on a bet- ter financial basis than ever before. “The dividend policy of the com- pany will be a matter for decision at the annus! meeting of the stock- Mav 11, 1925.
