MAY SINK TEST
WELL in INDIAN
CREEK COUNTRY
Lease Taking by National Com
pany Revives Hope That
Structure Will Be Explored.

Special to The Tribune.
Hobson. Sept. 30.-Prospects for n
other test of the Indian Greek struc-
ture northeast of Moccasin and straight
north of Hobson were materially
frightened this week when the National
Refining company took assignments
from A. L. Warren of Is leases In the
heart of the structure.
A year ago the National people took
over a block of leases from the Indian
Creek Oil Syndicate consisting of L. V.
and o. O. Muelled of L~ewistown, on
a 1856 checker-board basis, and sank
a well 1855 feet. The drilling con-
tractors let their hole get crooked, with
the result that the well had to be aban-
doned before the quadrant sands were
reached.
Hole Was Crooked
The calculations of the biologists
were borne out in splendid shape by
the log of the well, but the quadrant
sands. where production was expected,
were still a good many hundred feet
deeper when drilling had to be sus-
pended. The hole had gotten so crook
ed that the cable wore holes in the
casing.
After abandoning the hole. the Ma
tional people returned the leases TO
the three parties from whom they OBJ
tanned them. and pulled the casing in
the well and stored the tools in Moe
casin. The derrick is still standing
with the casing piled up along side Of
it. Speculation has been rife ever
since, as to whether the company would
go ahead and make another test. but
up to date they have never indicated
any intention of doing so. so far as the
general public has been able to dis
cover.
Leases Cover 5000 Acres
Now that they have started taking
leases on the structure again. it appears
that they intend to go ahead with an
other test well and land owners in that
vicinity are feeling very jubilant in con-
sequence.
The land owners whose leases have
just been assigned TO the National are
II. A. Padomre. Arthur, Key, George
Paul, Jas. &. Miller, Eleanor Brewer.
George r. Brown, Frank DeCramer. J.
r. March. Mamie McRae. Marguerite
McRae. Robert Brading. Elmer Rollins
and w. H. Brown. The total acreage
covered by these leases is about 5000
acres.

was devoting all of its energies toward
keeping the fire from the grassy slopes
that led directly to wheat fields and
hay stacks in that region. The old
Whitmore ranch, now owned by j. II.
Hardy Jones. was said to he in the
greatest danger. as the fire seemed
to be climbing steadily over the ridge
and up Dry gulch toward the Bird
creek country.
No Direct Word Received
No direct word was available late
Saturday night from any of the fire
fighters from Great Falls 1t vas
reported that cigar dealers, stationery
dealers and theatrical managers were
doing their shifts beside ranchers and
business men and lawyers from Cas-
cade. Sheriffs, deputy sheriffs and
prisoners fought fire along side of lads
who usually tuck the weekly salary
under one arm on Saturday nights and
do the avenues for every party in
sight.
1t was said to be the most cosmo-
politan group of wet sack weilders ever
assembled for such an emergency in
northern Montana.

Oil Showings Spur
on Development in
Devils Basin Field

Roundup. Sept. 30.-Local operators
are greatly encouraged by the recent
oil showings in the Spokane-Roundup
we'll. just north of the Devils basin.
The indications of oil were encoun-
tered this week, the drill being just
above the Cat Greek sand and pros
poets improving every day.
The bit is now less than 100 feet
above what is commonly called the Cat
Creek sand and the hole is in perfect
condition. The showings of oil appear
in a formation made up of fine white
sand and q conglomerate of sea shells
and fossils. The hole now below the
1.5J0-foot point and exceedingly rapid
nrogress is being made.

WILL DEVELOP
NORTH ACREAGE
F. w. Freeman Makes An.
nouncment After Visit to
Field.

Through its subsidiary. the Texas
Production company, The Texas Com
pany will play an active part in the
development of Montana's oil fields,
Judge Fred w. Freeman. Denver. of
the Texas, announced Saturday night
on his return from an inspection of
the Kelvin Sunburst field.
The Texas Production Will open of
fees in Great Falls, Judge Freeman
announced. with w. L. Christian. its
representative in Montana, in charge.
Other plans of the company include a
development program TO be begun next
spring in the northern field. The com
pany already is acquiring acreage. He
intimated that the company will not
%confine its efforts to the keyin-Sun-
burst field, but will enter other fields
as they are developed in the state.
Interests oil Men
The announcement of Judge Freeman
was regarded with interest by oil men
as the Texas Company has been repre-
scented in the Montana field by men
and geological staffs for some time.
Judge Freeman has also made some
visits to the state in the interests of
his company. He occupies a high place
among oil men and figured largely in
affairs of the industry in Montana at
the time. a few years ago, when, as
head of the Mutual of Maine, he acted
for that company in taking over the
Frantz properties in the Cat Creek.
Later. he was associated with the
Texas Company. The Texas Produc-
ton is a. subsidiary organized in Colo
RADIO and will represent the Texas in
operation in both Wyoming and Mon
tana.
II was surprised at the development
that has taken place in the kevin-Sun-
burst field since my last visit said
Judge Freeman. Il had not expected
such developments in so short a period.
I was. of course. impressed with the
possibilities of the field. The finding
Of oil over such wide areas means. OF
course. great possibilities. II means.
also. however. the greater difficulty in
arriving at the probabilities in judging
it There is yet wide development to
be done in determining the extent and
production of the field"
Travel by Motor
With Judge Freeman were II. +.
Connolly of New York. also a vice
president of the Texas production. and
F. C.. Bockaon of Casper. field manager
of the Texas Production. They arc
making a motor trip through the oil
fields, the trip 10 Great Falls, and
the north being on the end of 1000
miles of journey. From Great Falls
they now will return to Casper.

Dnoe Instead of
Spoonirag, Advises
California Judge

Los Angeles, Cal, Oct 1s.-The
ban now has been placed on a fellow
and his girl 'spooning" while auto
mobile driving along the country
highway. At least Justice Claiming
Toilette says a young man can't drive
his automobile with one hand and let
the other arm encircle the waist of
an alluring young woman.
According to the edict issued by
Justice Toilette the girl, no matter
how beautiful or how hard she pleads,
is to be brought to court by the ar
resting officer to be fined for allow
ing her admirers attention to be di-
verted from the road.
The decision against ''spooning" on
country highways by Justice Toilette
followed an extended investigation of
the offeHses most prevalent among
motorists on the highways. The re-
port shows that many accidents are
caused by drivers who are. so busily
engaged in looking deeply into the
eyes OF some young lady who is
tucked cozily under one arm that he
hits other machines

Is GOATS Beard"
To Replace the
'Bee SEyebrows:o"

Washington. Oct. 1S-Instead of
the bees eyebrows or the lizards
knees" it threatens to be the goats
beard" pretty quick.
Whatever all this modern argot NAV
mean to the rising generation, the
goats beard is indicated as an ad-
vance fashion by no less official a
publication than the Panama Canal
Record, which ordinarily speaks of
marlin spikes, cardboard strakes, and
ship chandleries. Witness the follow
ing official bulletin;
An item in the cargo of the steam
ship Felix Taussiq, passing thru the
canal on August 18th from Pacific to
Atlantic ports of the United States,
was ferty-seven bales of goats boards
weighing 2S,127 pounds. Another was
twenty-one bales of human hair
stumps weighing 10,497 pounds"
Since fashion announces the return
of the pompodour. it necessarily
means the return of the rat and
that accounts for the human hair
stumps, but the goats boards remain
a mystery. If bale of goats boards
weighs approximately 500 pounds how
many goats had TO be barbered.
Maybe the fashion designers are
plotting false whiskers for one of the
new winter modes
