INTEREST CENTERS
ON FOWLER WELL
Eight-Inch Casing Now Driven
Down Approximately
1870 Feet.

Much of the interest of Great Falls
oil men is upon the operations of the
Fowler Oil company, drilling on section
20-30-1 w of the Fowler structure.
where the drill is scheduled to hit
bottom today for the first time in sew
eral weeks. due to accidents encoun-
tered while running down eight-inch
easing.
Reports from persons visiting the
we'll have been that globules of oil have
been present in the water and are
taken to be encouraging signs. Taken
with the fact that there has been ION
siderable activity in leasing and lease
trading in the field. in which officers
of the Fowler company and the Column
bia Trust company Of Salt Lake City
have taken a prominent part. many
Great Falls oil men see the situation in
the field as very promising when drill
ing operations are again started.
The well is o down about 1870
feet. according to c. Fl. Drake of Con
rad. who is in charge of operations.
With the eight -inch casing on the bot
tom, the hole will be continued that
size and eight-inch casing carried down.

To Complete Running
Casing Down Monday
in Lake Basin Well

Roundup. July 1.-Excellent prog
ress in running 6-inch casing is report
ed from the Barnsdall- Foster well in
Lake Basin and the job may be COM
pleted by Monday. The casing is to go
to depth of about 300 feet. The hole
is 1882 feet deep.
1t is expected that by Monday the
crew at the well can start fishing for
tools that were lost when the casing
collapsed, several weeks ago., and made
necessary the long task of pulling
casing. cleaning out and running new
lines Of s and 6-inch casing. AS soon
as the tools are recovered drilling can
be resumed. with the prospect of going
into the producing sand at once. The
drill was at the top of the sand when
the collapse came. and oil rose through
$50 feet of cave-in.
The company Thursday received a
tool from Oklahoma, to have
hand in the event that the lost tools
be raised by the ordinary method.
This instrument is known as inside
and outside slips" and is SO designed
that c%orrugations inside grip the tools
and similar ridges on the outside lay
hold Of the casing with the upward pull.

NID-N0RTHERN WELL EQUALS
FRANTz IN SECOND SANDS
Two 10000 Barrel Gushers Now Flowing in Cat
Creek Field; Greatest Impetus Yet
Given Development.

Drilling in a few feet of the Mid
northern we'll in section 11-15-29e OF
the Cat Creek field, the first well to
the second sands, resulted early Friday
morning in bringing the we'll to the
equal AT least of the Frantz well, off
setting it on the Wildschutz tract in
section Il. according TO a telegram
received Saturday morning by Sam
Teagardcn. editor of the Oil Fields
Bulletin. who is in Great Falls. Oil
men in the field refer to both as TO-
O00 barrel wells.
The telegram received by Mr.. Tea
garden reads:
"Mid-northern drilled a few feet into
the second sand. Tremendous flow of
oil encountered. The drilling deeper
of this gusher gives Winnett two TO-
600 barrel gushers. No can esti-
mate the possible production of these
wells if they were drilled into the sand
10 feet or more"
At the time of the Frantz well was
drilled in producing a well flowing at
the rate of more than 1000 barrels
although later reported to have been
pinched back to 5000 barrels. Guy
Craig. field manager for the Mid
northern. then in Great Falls, an
nounced that he had ordered his well
to be drilled in at once. 1t is believed
by oil men who read Mr.. Teagarden's
telegram that the delay in drilling was
caused by preparations being made at
the well for handling the tremendous
flow which they realized would result.
Expect Other Gushers
Practical oil men of Great Falls see
a great significance in the presence of
the big gushers on the West dome of
the Cat Greek field in a horizon previ-
ously regarded as reproductive. They
interpret it to mean that there will be
other gusher fields opened up in the
Montana area and that development in
new fields. especially in the Sweet
grass arch. may bring results far eclips-
ing even the present showings.
The history of oil fields has been
that it does not stop with the first two
gushers.'' said Mr.. Teagarden. who has
been identified with the Cat Creek
field since its first producing wells.
Il have not the slightest doubt but that
this means that there will be numerous
wells put down to this horizon Of great
production.
The history. too. of oil states has
been that il does not stop with
one gusher field. 1t means unques-
tionably that there are others. See
the tremendous possibilities of it: a
great area reaching from the southern
part of the state $50 miles to the
north. dotted with promising structures
yet far from being developed. 1t is
area fro 80 to POO miles wide and
in innumerable places the structural
conditions are such as to offer rich
promises of development.
The United States has never seen
such wells as these of steady flow
without gas pressure and Of high gaso-
line content. It will grasp the atten-
ton Of practical oil men everywhere
and will bring them TO the state to

ing. The advertising and publicity will

Plan Three New Wells
in Lake Basin Field

Roundup. July Three new wells
are to be drilled by the Barnsdall- Fos-
ter corporation in the Lake Basin field.
Locations of these wells have not
been made known as yet. but the first
may be spudded in within the next
week or 10 days. according to r. J..
Wallace. superintendent of operations
in the Rocky mountain region.
A drilling machine Is to be trans
ported from Cat Greek to the location
of the first well on Monday.
All three of the new wells planned
are to be shallow. the objective in
each case being the Eagle sand. at
about 1,15O feet.
No. l well of the B%arnsdall- Foster
corporation. drilled a year ago. proved
the gas productivity of the Eagle, and
the No. 2 well. now drilling. proved the
presence of oil productivity in the same
horizon. The new wells will be lower
on the structure.
The oil in the Eagle sand of this
structure is a heavy. black product,
while that in the lower sand, about to
be tapped by the corporations new we'll
at 1882 feet, is a very high grade
light oil.

extent of more than $4,000. 900 as the
result of royalties received TO date
from oil and gas operations on leased
government lands in certain western
states, according to the bureau of
mines. Total net royalties reported
by the bureau to the general land Of
flee up to the first of June amounted
to S5.20l. 30S.6J. In the mouth of
May alone. royalties amounting to
S551.0o1.SS were reported. OF this
amount. S252.o22 was credited to Cali
%fornia; S273,6Jf to Wyoming, and SD
$40 to Montana. Royalties from the
production of petroleum constitute the
bulk of the figures for May. amounting
to S536.336; royalties from natural

facture Of natural gas gasoline. So.S52.
During May, 240 oil and gas pros

May two wells We're completed on gov

The recent discovery of oil at Kelvin,

permits for prospecting on government
land in this area.
The greatest producing well on gov

brought in by the Pan-American Petro-
leum company in the Elk Hills district
of the naval reserve. with an initial
daily production of 1900 barrels. The
report filed shows n total of 2o9

ty in California, while SO new wells
were being drilled. A conference was
recently held at the state mining bu-
reau. Taft. Cal, for the purpose of
mapping the probable commercial gas
productive area in the northern Buena
Vista hills and to decide upon a method
of oil well drilling which will protect
the gas zone which lies directly above
the oil zone.
