FIRMS COMBINE
IN OIL test OF
Iona STRATA
$40 Bill and Hager-Stevenson
Spud in Well to Prove
Structure.

The test well of the $50 Bill Syndi-
cate and Hager-Stevenson Oil COM
pany, on the Iona structure, section
$3.50 E., was spudded in Thursday at
.ternoon. The rig is now completely
housed in for protection from the
weather and no further delays from
this cause are anticipated.
The test of the Iona structure is
considered quite important, in that this
structure is closed on the south by a
fault and, if found to be productive,
win determine possibilities for num-
erous other structures of the same
type. Five of the leading biologists In
this state havekrecommended the drill
ing of this test.
Van Cregar, who is in charge of the
drilling. was one of the drillers on the
discovery well in the Sunburst field.
Every effort will be made to complete
the Iona well at the earliest possible
date. The well is being drilled with
a standard rig.
A number of Great Falls and Seattle
people were present at the well dur
ing the spudding in, also a great many
of the residents of Iona and vicinity.
All expressed great satisfaction with
the progress that has been made by
the syndicate and look for early results.
The test will be carried to the Madison
lime, unless oil in commercial quantities
is found before that depth.

BERG REACHES
GAS SAND in
NO. TWO WELL
Setting Casing Before Drill Is
Sent Deeper; Will Go
Down to Ellis.

The Ohio-Berg No. 2 well on sec
ton 6-32-1w. in the kevin-Sunburst
field struck the gas sand of the Berg
No. / Friday night at 1885 feet, ac-
cording to a report from Shelby. The
flow of gas was not determined, OPP
erations being stopped to set casing.
The news that the Berg had struck
the gas sand was welcomed by oil
men due to the reports that the well
had failed to find the sand. 1t proved
to be lower than had been anticipated.
Eight-inch casing will be set and the
Ohio will then drill into the sand.
If productions is not obtained here,
the hole will be continued through the
Kootenai to explore the Ellis to the
Madison. The first well was stopped
in the gas sand to give a gas supply
for Shelby. Even though as strong a
flow is obtained in the No. 2 well, it
is the intention to continue this well
to the lower formation.
Spokane-Sweet Grass we'll on sec
ton 27-33-1w. was reported to be
having difficulty carrying its casing.
Some trouble was encountered IN I'M
der-reaming and it will probably be q
few days before it reaches the sand,
it was reported.

Bowdoin Oil Resumes
Work After Shutdown
During Cold Weather
to The Tribune.

Malta, Dec. 29.-Drilling at the
Bowdoin Oil & Gas company well was
again resumed Wednesday morning and
will be pushed forward with all possible
haste. Work at this well was abandoned
some three weeks ago when the
weather reached the extreme cold
stage, because of not being able to
obtain sufficient water to u the large
boiler necessary for operation.
Water is being pumped from Nelson
reservoir, a half mile distant and when
the zero weather came it was impos-
sible to keep the pipes open, but with
the fine weather of the last few days,
work was resumed. A large tank is be-
ing installed which will furnish ample
water for several days drilling should
the thermometer again reach the low
point.
When drilling was stopped the well
was down several hundred feet and
with favorable weather the drillers ex-
pect to reach the oil bearing sands
within record time.
The Homestake people, who are
drilling some six miles north of this
well. are en%countering considerable
trouble with gravel and huge bouiders.
but according to reports, have about
overcome this trouble and with the
weather moderating they will make
fast progress.
The Phillips County Oil and Gas
company has moved its small rig to a
new location and are down some 200
feet in a new test well.

Golden West Decides
to Try Another Hole
on Cat Greek Acreage
,ecial to The Tribune.

Special to The Tribune.
Lewistown, Dec. 29.-Lewls -.
Clark, local manager for the Golden
West, returned Wednesday night from
Waterfowl, New York, where he went
to consult the directors and large
stockholders of the company as to the
development work for the coming
season. He found all of them very
sanguine as to the result of drilling
the company's holdings in Black Butte,
Button Butte and Cat Creek and it
was decided to put down another well
in section 16-15-29. Cat Creek. and to
carry on the Black Butte well to the
next sand.
The Mid Northern has Just secured
interests in the Button Butte struc-
ture, which is southeast of Grass
Range, it's leases calling for drilling
there in February. This, of course,
makes the Golden Vests large acre
age there look very promising. The
latter company's well in section IS.
Cat Greek, is now pumping about IS
barrels a day.

Drill Reaches 1000
Feet at Brush Creek
Well; Build Reservoir
Special to The Tribune.

Special to The IrlDune.
Lewistown, Dee. 29.-Word has
been received from the Republic well
on the Brush creek dome in the Cat
Creek field. which was isolated during
the long period of extremely cold
weather and bad storms. In spite OF
the heavy handicaps, the Peerless Oil
company's crew kept on drilling n
they have now carried the hole down
to the 1000 foot level, just above the
Ellis sand where production is very
confidently expected by the manage
ment. 1t was impossible to truck out
tanks during the bad weather. but a
huge reservoir was constructed n
this will serve the purpose until tanks
can be built. as the company does not
intend to delay drilling in for anything,
The we'll is in section 2S-16-2S.
The Brush Greek dome was looked
upon, in the early days of, Cat Greek,
as about the best bet in the latter
field and a number of companies were
formed to drill there. One, the Cat
Greek Consolidated, drilled to the first
sand but did not.get production. and
in the stage of development that had
then been reached, this gave the struc-
-ture q black eye. OF course conditions
have changed radically since then. The
biggest production in Cat Creek has
been secured from the second sand and
the Ellis has also proved production.
From a geological point of view. Brush
Creek is an ideal structure. IL pro-
duction is obtained there it will be a
big thing for the Cat Creek field, as
this dome is extensive enough to make
quite a little district in itself.
