OIL MEN HAVE LANGUAGE
ALL THEIR OWN, JUST AS
SOME OTHER OCCUPATIONS
TULSA. Ok!a, July 8. Oil men
have a language all their owf, as
it were, for the oil industry, like
others, has a number of more or
ies technical terms and nhrnntw
connected with it that are not gen-
erally understood outside the oil
i neid districts.
I For instance, "shooting a well
has an entirely different meaning
Irom that applied in river naviga
tion to the term "shooting the
rapids." In the oil country the
phrase means the lowering into
the well of several dozen quarts of
nitroglycerine .and allowing it to
explode in the bottom of the well
in the- oil sand.
Drilled Like Artesian
Oil wells are drilled much like
artes:an water wells. A "rig." or
tall pyramid framework Is erected
over the pot where the well is
to bp drilled. At various stages
the sinking of the well is cased in
by steel pipe, the Joints of which
are screwed together, making a
continuous pipe. This serves to
keep out water and to keep the
well from caving.
As the well is bored deeper, the
size of the casing is reduced in
order to keep putting it down in
side of that already In place. Two
or three changes, or possibly four.
are all that are usually made In
reaucing tne size or the casing.
"Dry Holes" Hnd 'H'.Hssvrs
If 'no oil is found the well Is
termed a "dry hole." If gas is
found, it is a "gasser." A produc
ing well is named according to the
or a 'uu-iarrei well
Oil as it comes from the trroiinrf
is called "crude oil." It is carried
to the refining plants in pipe
:iies, iron pipes ranging all the
way from three to 10 or 12 inches
in diameter, or in railway tank
cars. There it goes through the
refining process.
Almost all oil men lease the
land on which they drill, paying
"royalties," from one-eighth to
one-sixteenth of the value of the
o.l produced going to the owner
of the land. A "location" is a
piece of land on which a well is
drilled. It varies from 300 to 500
feet square. Thus in a field that
is closely drilled, each well will
have wells on four sides of it be
tween 300 andy 500 feet away.
These wells are known as "off
setts." A "tank farm" is a tract of

"Pools" Are Goal.
"Test wells" are the first wells
drilled in a territory where oil
has not been discovered. "Wild

ritory where geoligists have not
found rock formaxions that indi

is an underground supply of oil.

Strawberry Growers Find
That Advertising Pays
California fruit growers believe
that advertising i pays since they
used it in moving their strawberry
crop.
k When the strawberry: season
opened this year th California
growers were offered 3Vi cent
a pound by-'canners for their crop.
They felt that this was too low
and that' the crop should be
moved fresh. The growers adopt
ed an advertising campaign which
enabled them to move the entire
crop at s cents ;a pound through
local markets. ;
Result's were obtained tho
first day .with ithe advertising
campaign. By an agreement with
the canneries all of , the straw
berries not sold: every day at 1 1
o'clock were to be barreled. Only
the first day rpund any berries
on the market i for the canners,
so well did the advertising suc
ceed. A modest sum was used in ad
vertising in 'newspapers and
journals of the 'bay cities and re
tailers were furnished with post
vrs announcing fresh strawber
ries to the trade. The growers
leceived a fair j price, tlie whole
saler made a profit, the retailer
was kept busy and the public
Dougnt generously. A -: sinele
day s slump in the general straw
berry market would have cost the
growers many j times the entire
cost of advertising. 5

SATURDAY MORNING, JULY 9, .1921
POSTAL TEST
Dill' AUGUST $
Special Appeal is Made Jo
Former Soldiers to Enter
Federal Service
During the war Uncle Sam had
hard enough work to get men and
women to run his postofices. The
men were tither in the army or
waiting to be called in. and t'h
women were drawing better
wages almost everywhere else
outside of the postal service.
But now it's changed. The
postal service looks almost" like
pens'on, a gift from home, a
legacy from Uncle Silas, who ran
away from home and now dies
and leaveh a million .or the nef
fies and second cousins back in
the dear old home. The wages
have been raised until the clerk
ships start on 11400 a year, and
run up to moo. They give sick
leave with pay. and 1 5 davs1 va
cation exclusive of Sundays or
holidays, and only eight hours
a day and every holiday that was
ever stuck onto the calendar, and
they can now organize till the
cows come home with twin calves
and sojfs a riot to land in the
sheltering arms or dear old Uncle
Samuel who hit "em hard at Jia
or $30 a month when they were
in the army, but makes it up to
them now.
They're wanting more auxiliary
or substitute clerks and carriers
in the Salem office. An examin
ation has been called for August
6. for a new list of avaiiables for
emergency call. Blanks can be
secured by applying to the Salem
postoffice. These- examinations
ore not scheduled regularly. Some
times they may even be two years
apart, when there is a large wait
ing list of accredited avaiiables,
and again they may be two qr
three times a year, If the help is
needed. It Is surmised that there
will be no other call for a long
time to come,. as a good many ap
plicants are expected this time.
The examination schedule looks
easy enough. Spelling counts for
10 per cent, and penmanship for
20 per cent, for a clerk or carrier
must make many pencil notation
in the course of his work. Capy
ing ability counts for 30 percent
and letter wrfting for another 20
Arithmetic Is the biggest item in
the schedufe, this counting for 30
per cent on a scale of 100 points.
Two Filipino boys are now on
the substitute list in Salem, they
having passed the examination's
satisfactorily. ' v
AH soldiers, and dependent
wives or widows of soldiers, have
many preferential allowances.
There is no age. heitrht or
weight conditions that applies to
them, as they would to other Ap
plicants, and many nhvsical ren
ditions that WOUld bar nthor U
plicants are allowed for former
soiaiers.
