Bulletin . last cut was reduced in a current of gas, and the carbon calculatedto asphalt in the usual manner.

The light products from this crude treat well, to good colors, andsweet, very mild odors. The lubricating stock is strongly sulfurous, butgives a sweet reduced stock, of good color, but entirely solid with par-affin at normal temperatures. The red oil made from this stock by thestandard acid treatment is pale red, with a good green outertone, and agravity of °, the viscosity being rather low. This latter quality,however, cannot be observed at ordinary temperatures, as the oil has acold test above 75° F., setting to a thick paste. •Analysis by J. P. P. 1 I. lOWKKY. KUnP:K.\. AM) lAPO WELLS. 133 CHAPTER VII. MODELO, TORREY, EUREKA, AND TAPO WELLS. Townships 4-18 and 3-18. These townships contain four groups of producing wells, and a num-ber of scattering prospect holes, some of which have been more or lessproductive. The producing groups are—the Modelo wells on sections7 and 8, on the north side of the valley; the Eureka wells and the Tapowells, in the north-dipping formation on the south side of the valley,and the Torrey wells, which are higher in the hills, and on the forma-tion which dips beneath the Simi Valley. Many prospect wells havebeen drilled on Rancho Temescal; in the hills to the east; in the NiggerCanon territory; to the west of the Eureka and Torrey wells; and onthe Simi Rancho; but with the exception of three wells of late date onthe latter, with little encouragement to the present time. Modelo and Temescal Wells. Piru Creek takes its rise in the high mountains to the north, andflows with a generally s
