Oil Field Notes ::

The Black Hawk, the only n now
drilling in the Flatwillow structure.
southeast of Lewistown, is said to be
down 5000 feet. Drillers are at
tempting to pull the 5 3-16 inch cas-
ing but are having trouble due to the
frozen" condition.
The test of the Bowdoin dome in
section 6-32-33E is down $50 feet and
gas and traces of oil are said to have
shown in the Colorado shale. The
Bowdoin Oil & Gas Co. well which
went to a depth of 2,490 feet, is IL
miles west of the new test and the
Eagle formation was encountered
there at $50 feet, showing a structural
difference in the two locations.
Leasing is said to have become ac-
tive on what has been named the Coal
Ridge anticline, south of Great Falls.
Activities are being carried on by the
Southern Oil and Products company.
The Lewistown Oil and Refining Co.
well in 10-15-29 is now at 700 feet
depth and making rapid progress. 1t
Is understood that upon reaching the
first sand they will case off and go
on to the second and heavy producing
sand. .tt.~5i
