CHARLES NO. 2 OF The
FRANZ CORP. COMES IN
River Well Flows 600 Barrels at 1925
Feet. Quarter Mile North of
the Discovery Well.

Winnett, March 10.-With an esti-
mated flow of 600 barrels, the river
we'll of the Frantz Corporation, known
as the Charles No. 2, tapped the oil
sands Wednesday night, according to
Geologist Stone. This well is located
IN the NWA SEA NWA of 21-15-30
and is located just n quarter of Il
mile north of the Discovery we'll.
This flow is considered second in
Importance only to the discovery we'll.
Between the Charles No. 2 and the
great producing heart of the Cat Creek
field is a stretch of five miles of here
tofore unproven territory. This well
almost proves the gap between the
two.
Mr.. Stone states that from his in
formation, the well is a valuable adj
dition though the flow had not yet been
gagged Wednesday night. 1t took one
hour for the oil to come to the top
of the casing after the sands had been
tapped. The drill penetrated the
sands at 1925 feet.
The samples of the oil in this new
well prove of the same high test as
those encountered at the discovery
well, and the same as the oil now
flowing from almost all of the Cat
Creek wells.
Owing to the fact that this discovery
proves a large additional area in the
Cat Greek fields, this newest we'll
is considered one of the most impor-
tant developments since the Cat Creek
field first entered the producing class.

TWENTY THIRD PRODUCER
IN CAT CREEK FIELD
Owned by Sc Petroleum Company and
Held Entirely by Miles City
Interests.

Wlnnett, March 5.-The Cat Creek
field added one more fine commercial
well to its constantly lengthening
string last evening, when the Sc Pc
troleum Syndicate's No. 2 we'll came
in with a nice flow. The oil was struck
at a depth of 1926 feet and the oil
soon rose in the 8A inch casing 500
feet. The extnt of the production has
not yet been gagged, but by using a
sWab it is now roughly estimated that
the well will produce around 300 bar
rels a day. In any event, it will rank
right up with the other wells in that
vicinity, this new one being in the
southeast quarter Of the northeast of
the southwest quarter of section IL
1929. and it very materially brightens
the prospects of a number of concerns
having acreage in the immediate vicin-
ity, among those most directly affected
being the Eleven-Fifty-Six, the new
Cat Greek Center syndicate, which has
one tract a quarter of a mile north
east; the Bullseye, very close in; Ster-
ling syndicate, Roundup Drillers-Un.t
Eleven, Mondak, Macdonald, Diamond
SO and other locations in the north po--
ton of section II.
A notable feature of the success Of
the Sc we'll No. 2 is that it advances
production north over an eighth of a
mile beyond anything heretofore S.
cured and proves that much more ter
ritory.
The Sc No. 2 makes the twentv-third
commercial well in the Cat Creek field
and it is the second well brought in
during the present week.

Montana Oil and Gas Review
100000 IS PAID FOR
20 ACRES BY BAKER
Founder of 56 Petroleum Purchases
Part of Judith Gap Mems
Choice Holdings.

Judith Gap, March 9.-What is said
TO have been the biggest price ever
paid for oil lands in the northwest was
made by Joe Baker, founder of the Sc
Petroleum.. to local men Monday. The
land is in the Cat Creek structure and
the rate at which it sold to Mr.. Baker
was approximately at $4,000 an acre
for all the oil there was in 20 acres.
In the transfer the local men retain
the remainder of their holding consist
ing of several choice acreages.
The men are George S. Haynes, J..
G. Alexander, Franse Seeds, John
Strain, Knute Hustad, f. C. Newcomb
and Logan FOUL.
Drilling at the Judith Gap oil we'll,
four miles north of town, was discon-
tinued last week on account of a break
down.
Word has been received by l.. C.
Bardwell, representing Wiseman &
Ginsberg of Minneapolis, that they will
put in a new rig to prove this field. Mr..
Bardwell left Immediately for Basin,
Wyo, to purchase a new national rig
and equipment at an approximate cost
of $4,000.
A fifteen-inch hole will be sunk. The
rig on the ground is a keystone, but
owing to the extreme hardness of the
structure little progress has been made
with it.
Minneapolis capital is starting drill
ing operations on leases of the U Bet
Oil Co., a local concern, and the Big
Snowy Oil Co., composed of Judith
Gap, Lewistown and Spokane interests.

n. p. ORGANIZES FIRM TO
DRILL MONTANA LANDS

Minneapolis, Mimi, March 5.-The
Tribune Friday says:
Thousands of acres of land grant
property of the Northern Pacific rail
road in Montana, on which there are
supposed to be valuable deposits of
oil, are to be developed by a subsidi-
airy company, which was formed in
New York or Friday with a capital Of
$780, 00. The lands will be handled on
a royalty basis.
"The company will have the right to
explore and develop lands for oil pro-
duction and also lease other lands for
those purposes. The Northern Pacific
railroad, it is said, will hold the ma
GRITTY of interest in the oil development
and will receive the greater
part of the proceeds from the oil OPP
erations."

Why Colds Are Dangerous.

1t is the serious diseases that colds
lead to that makes them dangerous.
They prepare the system for the re-
ception and development of the germs
of influenza, pneumonia, tuberculosis,
scarlet fever, whooping
cough and measles. You are much
more likely to contract these diseases
you have a cold. For that reason
you should get rid of every cold as
quickly as possible. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy will help you. 1t is
widely known as a cure for bad colds.

spontaneous. A definite plan for dis
