  applied 
  to 
  the 
  region 
  west

  southwest 
  

   of

   lots 
  52, 
  59, 
  60, 
  71 
  and

  The

  was 
  drilled 
  by 
  North

  and 
  pro- 
  

   duced 
  about 
  15 
  barrels 
  a 
  day.

  co. 
  found 
  the 
  next 
  producing 
  well 
  on 
  lot 
  71, 
  west 
  of 
  the 
  

   N. 
  &

  getting 
  an 
  80-barrel 
  well.

  third 
  well 
  belonged 
  to 
  the 
  Test 
  oil 
  co., 
  on 
  lot 
  60, 
  and 
  started 
  

   off 
  at 
  100 
  barrels.
