Down or up he finally got there BEFORE the first Caesar's nurse ever spanked little Julius, China bored salt wells by having coolies jump on to a platform fastened to the drill. You might say those coolies drilled wells with their bare feet. When D. G. Scofield sank the first discovery well in Cali fornia, back in 187$, he and his men worked like coolies, and we'll tell you why. Scofield knew about mechanical drill ing, but in remote Pico Canyon nothing was possible except the pioneer "spring-polei' method and that operated by foot power. . ; ' ' He set a long sapling In the "Y" of another, fastened down - the butt and attached the drill rope to the springy end like the line on a fishpole. This made a spring-pole which raised, the drill after each stroke. But the men sweated the drill down- ' ward with their own bone and muscle by throwing their weight yo heave! into a rope stir rup which bent the pole and dropped the drill. That well eventually became part of this Company and so did the man who, by his own force and determination, dug it. Today one of Standard's tankers is the "D. G. Scofield" named ip honor of this former oil prospector, former president.
