T0PPINCPLANT
in OIL FIELDS
Plans to Provide Gasoline for
Drilling; Constructs
Pump at Reservoir.

A topping plant. to provide not only
gasoline for company ears in the field.
but also to produce a fuel oil better
suited to firing boilers, will be installed
by the Ohio Oil company. according to
l.. c. Stevenson. president of the Sun
burst Oil & Gas company.
The topping plant will be installed
soon. the material having been ordered,
according to Mr.. Stevenson, and quickly
placed in operation.
The DeWald water reservoir on the
DeWaid lease has also been obtained
for drilling operations, Mr.. Steven
son announced. and the Ohio is install
ing a steam pump and boiler at the
reservoir and will pipe it to the opera
tons in the neighborhood Of the Sun
burst producer. The supply is suffi-
cient to guarantee a water supply for
operations. he said. and the large
pumping plant will provide a steady
supply. The pipe is on the ground
and the installation Of the pumping
plant under way.
Mr.. Stevenson also announced that
the first drilling operations of the Sun
burst will probably be on the Sunburst-
DeWald No. 1, the location having
been made in the SEA SWI 1885,
W. the camp buildings having already
been constructed. The drilling will be
done by Burns & Clark, who hold the
drilling contract.

CANADIAN SEES
REFINERIES FOR
CRUDE OF ARCH
Expect Big Companies and In
dependents to Build Plants;
Dutch Shell in Field.

Canada expects to be the refinery
center for a large part of the produc-
ton from the fields of the Sweetgrass
arch, according to James Ryan of Cal
gary. who is in Great Falls.
Mr.. Ryan said that Canadians an
ticipate that the Imperial will build a
refinery at either Lethbridge or Cal
gary and that either or both of these
cities will be the location of a large
independent refinery.
With a considerable part Of the
crude from Cat Greek already making
its way TO the Regina refinery. we be-
lieve that the logical marketing center
for the Sweetgrass arch will be in
Canada" said Mr.. Ryan ALREADY
plans are being made by persons in
terested, | understand. 1t looks as if
the big companies through the In
perial will enlarge their facilities.
Another important factor will be
the British Canadian company. operat-
ing for the Dutch Shell, which is in
vading the territory and making a
strong bid for place. With production
coming in strong on the arch. there is
every reason to believe that this com
pany will enter into competition for
the crude AID that would. beyond
doubt. mean a lively ~scrambling for
production that would be reflected in
prices"
Mr.. Ryan is interested in oil leas-
ing and development and is in Great
Falls in connection with some of his
interests.

SEES BENEFIT
TO OIL FIELDS
NRAlLS STRIKE
Record Breaking Consumption
of Petroleum May Be
Result.

Benefits to the oil industry are seen
by the Monthly Bulletin Of the Great
Falls National bank in its July issue,
even in the case of g railway strike.
The prediction is made as a part Of a
review of activities.
The bulletin comments on the oil
industry:
The one industry that is benefited
by rail and coal strikes is the produc-
ton of oil. in which Montana is becom-
ing more and more interested. In re-
cent years many industries have lrned
from coal to oil for fuel, and in many
more instances plans have been laid
for q change in case of inability to
obtain coal. 1t is stated that today if
all railroads. were tied up. essential
transportation could be provided by
motor trucks, which could. if necessary,
be operated night and day. This would
greatly stimulate the demand for both
are almost 100000 trucks in the
United States, and it is estimated that
existing factories could turn out 1000
a day. The railroad strike. If it is
prolonged, promises to be followed by
a record-breaking oil consumption.
THE most important development in
the Montana oil situation since the
first well was brought in on the Cat
Creek anticline was the drilling in last
month in the lower sands of two gush-
ers in the Cat Greek field that were
reported to be flowing upward of 5000
barrels daily. This. in itself, will lend
considerable stimulus to exploration
work in locating and developing new

settle down.
