New Mexico has been geologized. Possibly no state in the Union has had a more detailed study by "the rock scientists than New Mexico. A geologist re turning from there during the post summer said he met more real geolo- gists in New Mexico than he had ever ra seen in one tn itory at the same time The surface indications are being studied in every part of the state and by men whose clients are among the i best known producing organizations in the southwest. And from the stand t point of geology, New Mexico has good prospects for oil proi'iction. The Pcrmain and Pennsylvania sands both underlay the eastern part of tthc state, and at depths which will make their exploration profitable. It is believed the Permian will be found at about 2.&00 feet, and the Pennsyl x vania at slightly more than 3,000 ft. Going south, drilling will not have to t be so deep, and oil showings have t been found at less than 2,000 in the Carlsbad section.'
