The Oldest Established Dry Parker Oil Field A well owned by B. Fogel and others, on the MlJford farm, was tubed oo Saturday last and commenced to pump at tb rata of 50 or 55 barrels par day. The well owned by Hall and Cady, of Tituiville, and otbeas on the Mllford farm, is nearly finished. The oil flows In large quantities from the bole, and it will do doubt prove a large wall. Messrs. Cbalfant, Grafi & Co., several months ago purchased a lot In the borough of St. Petersburg upon wblcb tbey erected a building for a supply store. Tbe gentlemen, after purchasing tbe lot, concluded there mUbt be oil under it and set men to work to drill a hole. During last weak tbe drill ing was completed, the well tubed and tbe pump put in motion, when oil pcured forth for some time time at tbe rale of about 100 barrel per day. After several days pumping tbe production still kept up in a remarkable degree, and it I thought tbe production will not link below 40 or 60 barrels per day. The Chambers well, on tbe Slicker farm, bas been completed atid pumping for some day, yielded 70 or 75 barrels per da;. Owoere and others entertain ibe hope that it will centiuue to yield 40 or 5.) barre's per day alter tbe accumulated surplus has been pumped out.
