'"1ME is the essence in good
farming writes Frank l. Mann,
one of the most successful
farmers In the United States. ITO
Judge the value of tractor on the
farm it must be considered in relation
to its ability to do farm work at the
time to give most profitable return
from the crops grown"
Mr.. Mann goes on to show that
farm work is subject to continual
delays from adverse weather condi-
tons, and the one great advantage
OF the tractor is in enabling the
farmer to handle peak loads on time.
In one case cited, tractor power
enabled the farmer to sow a good
acreage of spring wheat on March
%, which early seeding gave him a
return of AZ bushels per acre. thus
illustrating the cash value of tractor
power.
A tractor to do its work must have
petroleum products.
The Standard Oil Company (In-
dlana) takes great pride in the fact
that its organization is able to supply
the needs of these tractors in 10
Middle Western states with peiro-
leum products of superior quality.
No matter how unexpectedly the
farmers peak load may arrive, he
will find that this Company has ever
ready at his call such gasoline, kero-
Sene and lubricants as he may need.
Owing to the isolation of manv
farmers and farming districts, this
task of supplying petroleum prod
uctS at dependable intervals is big
and often an exceedingly diff
cult one.
Nevertheless, the Standard Oil
Company Indiana), inspired by its
obligation to the community, has
always met rural needs for petro-
leum in big way. The Company
constantly is extending its operations
to provide facilities which under all
conditions enable it 70 meet the
demands made upon it, and to guar
antee reliable and sustained service
even in periods of stress.

Gladys-Belle we'll northeast Of Kelvin
came in:
AS looked upon by biologists the
field is now proven north and south
over a distance of five miles. 1t is
also proven northeast and southwest
from the Campbell well to the Han
don, a distance of ~ miles, though
the Kelvin side Of the field is not so
promising as further east. There is
nothing in the north and south struc-
ture as revealed by the logs of the
wells drilled which would lead to the
belief that there is any faulting or
other serious obstacles to the north
Of the farthest north well, the Han
don, and thus the interests drilling on
the Canadian border are encouraged
to believe that the arch, dipping TO
the north, extends into Canada. The
dip Of the arch is toward the north,
the dip being fairly gradual on the
Montana side.

Lake Basin Activities

Billings, Aug. 10.-Two of the
proposed new wells to test the Eagle
sandstone in the Lake Basin area will
be spudded in within the next few
days.
G. M. Church, multi-milionaire New
York operator, who recently acquired
acreage in this field, has all material
on the ground, and drilling operations
will begin "at once" it is said. This
test is going down on the northeast
OF the northwest of section 1921.
The Standard, of California, also is
about ready to spud in on its location
in the southeast Of the northwest of
section 1921. 1t is expected the
drill will start within a very few days.
Duluth interests, including Masaba
iron range people, will soon be rig
ging up, it is said, to drill a well in
this field on section 1921. There are
rumors of still other big interests en-
tering the Lake Basin field.
The Barnsdall-Foster corporation
plans to drill more wells, and the one
that is to be drilled by this company
under arrangement with H. D. Ken
yon, OF Laurel, on section 36-2-11,
will be among the first to start.

ANNOUNCEMENT

The editor of The Courier feels that
the paper needs no introduction at its
new location, for Shelby people are
familiar with it since first published
and many of them are its subscribers
as are those in all parts of Toole
county. Because of it's acceptance by
so large a number as a medium
through which information they wish
ed could be obtained, the business men
of Shelby have likewise accorded it a
very substantial patronage in the way
of advertising, and so it's removal to
a permanent home in Shelby is but
logical in that from here it will serve
all those and many more in a better
way.
While necessarily making a special
ty of the developments in the county's

one might truthfully say, the eyes of
the world upon this county and its
towns, The Courier will not neglect
other news Of the county and its COM
munities and especially will we feel
called upon to bring into deserved
prominence "The Oil City," which
title it win increasingly be found to
apply to this the gateway city to
what no doubt is one of the largest
and richest oil fields in the entire
United States.
The ccunty's farmers and ranchers
who have SO steadfastly striven
against great odds are not to be for
gotten, and The Courier will lend its
support to all things which may
promise to assist that industry.
The Courier has no pet hobby to
promote, no special faction to serve
and comes here only to publish a
newspaper upon q business basis, be-
lieving the field warrants it's estab-
lishment and we hope to merit such
patronage as the newspaper itself de-
serves as a newspaper.
A plant has already been purchased
and now ready for shipment as soon
as quarters can be fixed up, and this
is to be complete and modern, includ-
ing a late model Of typesetting ma
