STATE CRUDE
PRODUCTION TO
DOUBLE In %
Campbell Tells Governor Big
Year Is Due in Oil De-
velopment.
(Tribune's Helena Bureau}

Helena, Dec. 27.-That he conf
IDENTIFY expects to see the production
of crude oil in Montana double during
the year 1928. was the statement made
Thursday to Gov. Joseph NJ. Dixon by
Gordon Campbell, %geologist and dis
coverer of the Kevin-Sunburst oil
field in northern Montana.
Mr.. Campbell arrived liz Helena,
Wednesday, from a trip to the coast
and called upon Governor Dixon dur
ing the day. He was questioned ex-
tensively by the governor regarding
the possibilities Of the northern field
and replied to the numerous questions
in an optimistic name
He told the governor that there are
at present in the Kevin-Sunburst field
81 producing wells and four dry holes
of which he expected two would be
brought to production by shooting. He
said the producing field at present
was eight miles wide from east to
west and Is miles long from north to
south, but that he expected to see the
producing area enlarged considerably
during the coming year, his idea being
that it would extend about six miles
further north and would take in n
more township on the west and one on
the east. 6 ss@zgaa

Wilcox Probe Backs Theory of
Arson Advanced by
Falls Chief.

Expectation that an arrest on a
charge of arson. would be made soon in
the case of the Wilcox building Christ
mas morning fire was expressed Wed
by b. W. Glendenning, acting
state fire marshal. He said evidence
brought out during the first day of in
v~estigation pointed toward arson and
tended to substantiate theories formu-
lated by Fire Chief A. j. Trodick.
There seems to be a wave of arson
in Montana, Mr.. Glendenning said.
There are now nine people in the state
under arrest on this charge. he said.
All of the arrests have followed in
vestigations similar to the one being
conducted here. More fires have been
investigated for arson during the past
six months than during any previous
year, Mr.. Glendenning said.
The local investigation will prob
ably last a couple of days, Mr.. Glen

Billings. Dec. 27.-The B%arnsdall-
Foster well in the Lake Basin, the
deepest in the state, being down to
1850 feet-is believed to have forced
itself in over Christmas as the result
Of an overflow of oil from the top Of
the casing. There was great excite
ment when the news came in to Bill
lings Tuesday evening and there was
a rush of investigators to the scene.
with visions of a great gusher. But
just what has happened is a mystery
for the present.
1t may be that the well has forced
a flow Of oil from the bottom sands.
But at present there is a plug Of con-
gealed oil in the vent Of the casing and
under that possibly 1000 feet Of water,
and it will require investigation to tell
what has happened.
S%aturation
One of the theories of the hackers
of the we'll is that the oil mi from
a saturation encountered in the sands
at $500 feet, possibly through a broken
joint. Superintendent r. j. Wallace
says he won't tell anything definite till
the hole is baled out.
Oil circles are full of rumor of a
big strike being made but being con-
ceaIed. With thest the name of the
Standard Oil company of New Jersey
is associated. There is talk of an
other big field being on the point of
being disclosed and of at least one
other well with gusher potentialities
being capped off. A witness in a court
suit last week, for irsatnce. said the
Shower well near Laurel had to be
capped or it would have drowned out
Laurel.
a sample of the Barnsdall oil
brought to Billings showed light yellow
and appeared to be a very high grade
of crude.
Mr.. Wallace and others interested in
the well refused from the first, how
ever. to get excited. They said at once
that if there was oil flowing, it was
seepage form n sand already passed
through. that had been accommodating

When the new crop and Canadian

on passage are moderate, European
port stocks are light. and their own
small crops have been depleted, accord
ing to ON observers, necessitating a
larger flow from surplus countries be-
fore long if a food crisis is to be
avoided.
The year has been featured by nu-
merous radical revisions in crop esti-
mates, not only in the United States
but in other important wheat growing
sections, and consequent alterations of
the world outlook, which have had
much to do with numerous changes of
trend.
The governments final report made
the rye crop the largest on record. but
it is disappearing rapidly into the Euro

greater than the traditional discount Of

attractive purchase.
