OIL MEN AWAIT
FEDERAL'S MAP
OF NORTH AREA
Plat Is Expected to Show Gov
ernment's Outline of Pro-
ductiOn .

Reports that the land department al
Washington. ID. c., has prepared an
order outlining the producing area in
the Kevin-Sunburst field and making
Withdrawals of government laLds have
aroused the interest of oil men of the
northern fields.
While oil men generally seem to be-
lieve that this order will be of a rou
tine nature and will have little effect
upon the status of permits or appli-
cations for permits. they are interest
ed in seeing to what extent the govern
ment will outline production.
There is also the possibility. but one
that would bring forth n wave of vio-
lent protest from oil men and persons
generally through Montana, hat the
order would be ~post-dated, and in that
case would affect the status of several
applications for permits. as many as
rs or so perhaps in the kevin-Sun-
burst field. This possibility is scout
ed by most oil operators. They insist
that such an order cannot be effective
prior to date of publication. Since
virtually all government lands of Toole
county are now plastered with permits.
such an order could not be serious in
its effects.
Since the publication of the report
of j. J. Collier, government geologist,
on the -Sunburst field, oil men
generally nave been anticipating a gov
eminent order respecting permits and
leases.

NEWS OF MONTANA OIL FIELDS

Restrictions on Operations in
South Expected to Send
Operators North.

Restrictions in drilling activities in
the Wyoming fields are expected by oil
operators to lead to an influx of drill
ers and drilling equipment into the
Kelvin Sunburst field and the struc-
lures of northern Montana.
With an over-production in the
Wyoming field, supply men from the
south bring the report that the activity
that has marked the summer will be
followed by a considerable slump. The
drilling that has been hurried through
In such fields as Salt Greek has been
largely the drilling of necessary off
sets. With the recent agreement OF
operators in Salt Greek, as will prob
ably be the case on a greater or lesser
scale in other southern fields, that the
number of wells drilled on any lease
be limited to two, there will be an al
most immediate s~lackening of activity
Operators and drillers alike, how
ever, look upon the Kevin-Sunburst
field as one in which there will be a
ready sale for the product in opening
up a hitherto unserved territory. For
this season, oil men argue, there viii
soon be a multitude of drillers seeking
acreage for their operations in the
northern fields. While the winter
probably will hamper the coming OF
these drillers, the spring is expected to
see the thrush begin.

CASCADE FARMS THREATENED
BY FOREST FIRE IN BELTS
Many Great Falls Business Men Help Combat
Flames Raging Between Allen and
Bird Creeks.

More than 100 fire fighters were re-
ported to be patroing a fire line in the
Little Belt mountains 10 miles south
east of Cascade that swept over a
seven-mile front between Allen and
Bird creeks late Saturday night.
Nearly a dozen cars carrying volun-
teers from Great Falls left here late
in the afternoon.
Equipment was carried to the fire
in two five-ton county trucks. 1t was
reported that more than go business
men about own were included in the
fire fighting forces that we're recruited
through Sheriff Bob Gordon during
the afternoon. Five prisoners from
the county Jail were drafted into the
service. Adolph Weholt. assistant
supervisor of the Jefferson national
forest. joined the party, although the
fire is in the Helena forest and be
yond the official jurisdiction of for
esters in this region. Other officials
of the Jefferson forest were out of
the city and their services not avail
able.
Started Thursday Night
The fire started late Thursday
night in a small patch of timber at
the head of Allen creek. owned by the
Great Northern railroad, according to
information received by long distance
telephone from William F. Berger.
editor of the Cascade County Courier,
Saturday night. The fire is believed
to have spread from a small camp fire
left burning by persons hauling wood
out of the hills, although no definite
information concerning this theory was
available. Famed by a terrific wind.
the flames spread rapidly until they
reached a menacing state by Friday
night and volunteer fire fighters were
recruited in Cascade .
A steady southwest wind whipped
the fire through the dry timbered area
all day Friday and Friday night. and
farmers in the vicinity of Flanagan,
Allen and Birds creeks were threat
ened with the loss of their wheat and
hay. At times the force of the wind
was increased until it fairly drove the
fire over ridges and through gnlches.
destroying all timber and forage IN its
path.
Seen From Great Falls
The glow of the fire was plainly
visible from Great Falls Friday night,
although the fire had not yet reached
a supposed uncomfortable state at
that time, All day. Saturday the
brown smoke haze Of the fire hung
along the skyline, drifting far with
the southwesterly wind until the air
in Great Falls. more than 80 miles
away from the fire, was punsent
with the smoke.
The fire was reported to have
burned entirely around the Battson
cabin on Allen creek, scattering ashes
on the roof. but leaving it u~ncharred;
Late Saturday night the wind had
died down and the individual fires
we're plainly visible from Cascade.
Berger said. The biggest on Allen
creek was reported to be fairly under
control and the volunteer fire brigade
