On this form the horizontal lines represent-ing 10-foot and 100-foot subdivisions should extend across from theformations to the left-hand side of the log. In the history as shown in figure 6, each job has a separate heading,emphasized by capitalization or italics—for example, OriginalDrilling, Deepened, Eedrilled, etc., are capitalized. Under each job, the histor} is subdivided according to the workdone while carrying a certain size string of casing. Starting withthe original drilling, a brief statement is given showing the depthof the original casing, perforations, and initial production. In thisparticular well, it shows the well completed April 13,1913, at a depthof 1,800 feet. The first complete monthly production was in June, 1913, when the well made 1,372 barr
