THE NEW OIL FIELD IN BUTLER
• COUNTY.
Shortly after the Simms and Myer well'
was tubed, last Tuesday, it commenced
flowing oil through the tubing at the rate
of about one hundred barrels per day, and
war reported yesterday to be still flowing
at the rate about eighty barrels. • This
well is located on the Barnet farm,' in the
north-west corner of Penn township, and
is 148 rods east of a 24 degree line•pasa = -
ing through Bald Ridge No. 1."
This 221 degree line • (north , 22i degrees
east, or south 221 degrees west) was run
some years ago from the Bullion or old
Oil City belt, and Bald Ridge wells, No.
,I and 2 were located at or near the junc
tion of this line with a 45 degree line run
from the thecae city cross belt. Obtain
ing oil at this point has naturally created
some excitement in oil circles and among
the land owners of the vicinity. Proper-
ty for t miles north and south of the taw
well, nthe 22i degree line, and -also on
the Greece ettyline, the Herman station
no - and the Carbon Centre, has been
leased. Some oil rights have also bean
sold at good. figures. Mr,John Weber,
wbose . , farm adjoins the Hamel, to the
south, has sold the oil ,right df his farm
. for $5O, per acre and one eighth royalty.
Quite.a number of new wells - will be
put down in -that vicinity , immediately
and until some- of these new wells are
down, it will be impOssible to toll whether
the new well is on a belt or pool, or in
which diirection it extends.' The old Oil.
City bell is said to have been a belt - of
pools. -
The Bald Ridge Oil Compauy has lo3ated
five new oil wells on their leases. They
ate also tirilling their No. 3 well on the
Crow fain, (Forward township) deeper.
Tim Phillip Bros. have located several
well 4 on their leases in the vicinity. This
firm have leased thoUsands of acres run.
ning from Herman station and from a
point near Carbon Centre, to the. Bald
Ridge territory. The United Oil , Com
pany. (Taylor & Co.) have leased a large
number of properties on the 221 degree
line and have located a well on the Wil
liam 31. Brown farm, in Forward town
ship. :Kerr Mcßride !has located a well
on the Gruver farm, in Butte- township.
The McConnell well, on the Miller farm,
in Butter townshYp, is down about 800
feet ; it , is some distance west of the 22k
line, near the old tamp meeting ground.
These are all the new wells we have
heard of, and they will surely be enough
to test the territory. The sand is so deep
that some of the oil °Meters believe
there are 500 barrel wells to be had in the
vicinity. We hope so. It will be a big
thing for Butler. The town has already
brightened, and for this new luck it is
largely indebted to the Bald Ridge Oil
Co., who risked their money, in what, to
many, seemed a very foolish enterprise,
and particularly to the originator and
chief promoter of the Compatiyi Feld

At first I was .a combined grist mill and
power corn shellac, and all the shelling of
corn and grinding of grain for the. state
was done at the mill that I was. Then I
was the McKean county oil belt, and
thousands of v deiricks" with numberless
drills ocdupied _every available apace in
my o..tended territory; i changed again,
and was a saw mill and planer with gang
saws, muleys, circulars, edgers, and all
Weds of planers, running at high press
ure all of the time, with shavings flying.

less machinery. Another change. and r
was a great western farm with, mowers
and reapers punning, sulky takes, raking,
and with a thousand different fields where
men were. plowing, hoeing,' grubbing
roots, grinding scythes, spliting. wood,
blowing' horns, making 'fence,, sawing,
logs, and doing a thousand Other things.
