! Special to The Tribune
L~ewistown, Nov. 16.-Oil operators
here and throughout eastern Fergus
are all intensely interested in the out

well. southeast of Winnett, which is

that is really known is that the com

of the first examined in this state by
Gordon Campbell. 1t was in 1917 that
he first looked it over and later made
strong recommendations to the Cali
fornia parties he then represented rec
ommending a test well. Following his
discovery of oil in the Devils Basin.
Mr.. Campbell came directly to this city
and stated that the FlatWillow, or Vel
low Water. as it was then called, was
the most promising field he knew of in
the state. It remained, however, for
the Chicago company to give the field
it's first real test.

The test well being put down by the
Devereaux Oil company in the west end
of Cat Creek, section 12-15-2S. is now

hopes to get it down to the 1000 foot
level with a 20-inch hole. 1t is the
first well to be carried to its present

understanding is going on so that cas-
ing can be set to the bottom. If there
is no accident TO delay the work, the
Ellis sand should be reached in about
two weeks. 1t lies at a depth of about
1.340 feet and production is confident
ly expected there.
1t is the theory Of some biologists
that the Mcdonald creek structure
runs on into the immense Flatwillow
dome. which is itself adjacent to Cat
Greek on the west. Developments at
the Schwartz well may therefore have
a decided bearing upon the Flatwillow
field and its future. In any event q
real success in the Mcdonald struc-
ture will give the Flatwillow field an
enormous boost.
