The discovery north of Cuinesville of what is believed liy the finder to he a structure favorable to oil accumulation caused a near stauijiede at the Salt Lake City land ofiice lust week. The discoverer is John W. Clark of Zion, who reports his find as situated approximately iu Twp. 25 South, Range G East or between the San Rafael and Last Chance fields. Fifteen fillings have been made in thia region, covering approximately forty thousand acres. The dejiartnient of the interior has announced that prosieetiiig permits have been issued to the Staudiard Oil cumjiany of Utah and the Ernkar Oil company on lands in the Mush uil structure. The Standard and Embar comjiauies plan operations in the near future, and have been assisting in putting down the Rig Six test well near Jdoab. A prospecting permit has been also issued to Kendrick Levi on thousand and sixty acres twenty-fiv- e in Salt Valley. Accompanied by a party of surveyors from Salt Lake City, T. C. Conley arrived at Green River lust Sunday and proceeded from there to his holdings south to surv ey lands ujiuu which be has been granted a government lease. Drilling operations are to begin as soon as a rig may be scut into the field. Flans are on foot to construct a substantial highway from Green river to Hanksville. The Ohio will stand a goodly jiortion of the cost. The Finnerty rig has been set up a short distance north of the Ohio camp and inside the escarpment at Caiuesville. The well could be spudded in almost any day after a crew is assembled. The water from the Ohio well probably can be utilized for drilling ojierations uu the Finnerty property and fur most other operations which may be undertaken inside the escarpment until aurh time aa each well taps the water stratum of the up-iWingate formation and develojm its own supply. The air between the Continental Divide and the Wasatrh Range is vibrant, says Mountain States Mineral Age of Denver, Colo. Already the movement has brought a big business boom to towns along the Denver and Rio Grande. One hundred and forty-si- x mail trucks are plying out of Price with mail and parcels post for the new oil fields. Almost six milium seres of prospective ground has been filed on or leased. The federal government haa withdrawn some two million seres of reserves more than in California, which state is second in petroleum production.
