Raise in Sunday Paper Prices.

Without any advance made in the pub fishers price charged to newsdealers for New York Sunday papers, there has been raise from 10 cents to 12 cents in the price charged in Norwich by some dealers for the past two Sundays. Other dealers are keeping to the 10 cent price.
 It was stated Monday by a Norwich dealer that the raise in the price for New York papers had followed a raise of a quarter of cent charged the dealers for a. Boston Sunday paper, but the New York papers are costing the dealers the same as before Increased cost of liv- cry hire for distribution on Sunday is given as one of the reasons for the 12 cent rate by those who are charging that.

building boom and the rec ent

dampened any ones enthusiasm.
Real estate is changing hands
and many new buildings are

as a result of the big gasser com

ago. The gas mains are being
laid and it is expected gas will
be available in the near future.
Not only has the completion of
the Berg Gasser started business
and activity in Shelby but the
adjoining and nearby farming

Lands and lots are going up in

Black Magic Co.
Declares Dividend

The Black Magic Company has
declared dividend payable i'm Jan
uary. This makes a record for pro-
fit disbursements. The well in Sec
ton 10 was brought in only a few
weeks ago and has already shown
enough profit to pay a dividend.
The Black Magic brought in one Of
the best wells in the Kelvin field as
heretofore noted in the Review, it
is considered by some to be the best
we'll in the field, everything being
taken in consideration. 1t will be
recalled this well came in and threw
oil over the crown block and over
the field for nearly a mile away,
making one ofthe spectacular COM
pletioes of the district and since has
been producing ESQ barrels day.

ings will be l ,280 acres.
Options on 280 acres in the
Genou field will also be listed
among the company's holdings.
Senator Hogan will leave Tues
day for Aberdeen to complete ar
rangements there and immedi-
ately after the holidays Mr.. Hart
and Mr.. Albin and Senator Hog
an will leave for New York City
to close the deal there.
Prime incensive for the organ
ization of the company, say those
close to the organizers was the
low posted field price for crude
oil in the Kevin-Sunburst field,
70 cents barrel now being paid.
They point out that the govern
ment contracted with the Lewis
town refinery for u. S. royalty
oil at S2.20 a barrel. The Kelvin
Sunburst oil is held to produce as
high grade Of gasoline as can
be found anywhere.
Analysis of crude from Hogan
No. l made at the AFRO refinery
at Lewistown, showed gravity
34.2 per cent; gasoline 37.9 per
cent; kerosene 23.9 per cent; fuel
oil 1872 per cent. Orders will be
placed with supply companies for
the casing and other materials
required in drilling the ten off
set wells next sgring, and it is
intended to have all in readiness
to begin operations as soon as
the weather will permit.
Meanwhile experts will inves-
tlgate the relative merits on the
various sites in mind for the re-
finery. An experienced manager
of the Mid-continental field has
been engaged. He will consider
the matter of freight facilities
and rates, marketing advantages
and permanencies Of location.
The company has under consid-
GRAFTON a contract with one Of
the big gasoline distributors of
the country for the gross output
of gasoline.

Montana Sweet Grass
Plans Big Campaign

Aggressive development of the
Montana-SWeet Grass Oil & Gas
company's acreage in the Kelvin
Sunburst field and prospective
campaign to perhaps be EXTENDED
to include other fields or new
structures, was announced by
G.. Z. Hanson of Denver, head Of
the company. The Montana
Sweet Grass company is backed
by Utah Southern. which COM
pleted it's financing last fall.
Immediate plans of the COM
pany call for the drilling at once
of a we'll on the McDonal lease
in section 20-35 2 w, near the
Gladys-Belle groupe o f wells,
and the drilling Of new test in
the southern part Of the field,
where the company has large
holdings. When production S
brought in on its holdings i n
township 35, range 2 W, the COM
pany will continue development
of that tract, bringing in a drill
ing machine which will be used
in the development work. A
standard string Of tools will be
used in further prospecting.
Not less than three strings of
tools will b e operated by the
Montana-Sweet Grass during the
next spring. Mr.. Hanson an
nounced, although plans may be
changed in accordance with dev
elopment in the field.
He said that the company Of
fcials have been watching dev-
elopments in the southern part
of the Sweet Grass arch and in
other parts Of northern Montana
and should these prove favorable
the company will take part in
prospecting new areas, he said,
and will have the needed strings
of tools available for this work.

Illinois Builds Pipe
Line From Sun
burst 10 Coufts

/ Pipe has been shipped from
the mills for a 6-inch line from
Sunburst in the Kevin-Sunburst
field to Coutts, Alta, according
to report from Casper, Wyo.
The pipe line will be installed by
the Illinois Pipe Line company,
which now has a line from the
field to Sunburst, where it has
tank storage Of about $4,000 bar
rels. At Coutts, it will connect
with a tank farm and loading
rack to be installed by the I'm
perial Oil company, Canadian
subsidiary Of the Standard Oil
company.
From Coutts, it is understood,
the Canadian Pacific is giving a
low shipping rate on the oil to
the Imperial refineries at Regina,
Vancouver and Prince William,
as we'll as to Calgary, where the
Imperial is now constructing a
$2,500,O0O plant. The pipe line to
Coutts will be about 10 miles
long. An initial pump station
will be established in the field
probably at Sunburst.
The report from Casper was
received without surprise by oil
men Of Great Falls. 1t has long
been known that the Ohio Oil
company which is closely con-
nected with the Imperial, would
favor marketing in that direction
and that the Ohio subsidiary,
the Illinois Pipe line rather than
pay the freight to the border, a
rate that would be in the neigh
borhood of II or II cents a hum
1red.
Oil men saw in the contem-
plated pipe line the possibility
that competing refneries when
on this side of the |
border, will force a field price
hat will be higher than would
otherwise be the case. With the
oW transportation cost, tn e |
Aeyin-Sunburst crude will be so
much more valuable to the Cana
lian refneries than the Wyo-
ming crudes now shipped, that
he Imperial will bid up the field |
)rice in order to obtain the sup |
oly, as oil men view the situa-
ion.
Pipe line runs from the field at
he present time are reported to
,e between l,700 and 1, 800 bar
els of crude day.
The Casper report continues:
This will be the second inter
rational pipe line from the Unit
d States to Canada. The other
inc runs from Cygnet, Ohio,
lorthward through Ohio and
1ichigan and thence under the
Detroit river to Sarnia Ont,
5here it supplies the Imperisl Oil
ompany's plant at that place
7ith its crude requirements.
Refining crude petroleum in
;anada has proven a very pro-
table business as there is no
ariff 0 n crude entering that
ountry, while there is a high
uty on all refined products.
