BOWER PLANS
TO DEVELOP
SHELBY LAND
Residents of Tract Will Be
Able to Connect With New
Gas Main.

One of the large transfers of prop
erty near Shelby Saturday was the
purchase of 100 acres by ". A. Bow
er of Great Falls from James A. John
son, mayor of Shelby.
The 100 acres is the northwest
quarter of section 21-32-2 ", ana, ac-
cording to Bower, is but 10 minutes
from the present center OF the town
and will be passed by the gas pipe to
be laid from the Ohio-Berg well to
the city, making it possible for the res
idents OF the tract to obtain an early
gas supply for heating and lighting,
1t is Bowers plan to combine with
the plating Of the tract, the testing OF
the acreage for oil. the purchasers OF
the lots to obtain equal shares IN the
company that will drill the test well.
Park spaces will be left at intervals
through the tract, and should oil be
found in the test well, these. VIII be
the sites of future wells, the lot own
ers to share in the production on the
basis of their holdings. The oil rights
were purchased with the property by
Bower.
Bowers purchase of the tract near
Shelby was his first entrance IN this
part Of the oil industry. He has for
merly been interested for the most
part in the Bowdoin structure, where
he has extensive holdings IN leases
and royalties.

field. In these townships, the Gypsy
has lease holdings running in the
]neighborhood of 10000 acres, accord
ing to oil men. The holdings extend
to the west and also some distance to
the east.
Under the generalship Of L. c. Ster-
enson, the Hager-Stevenson company.
often represented by agents of the
company, has made a campaign for
acreage, which according 10 oil men
must now total between 5000 and

Credit for initiating the drive for

Mid-Northern Hats
Work at ~Spindletop;
Action Is Surprise
Special to The Tribune

SPECIAL to The Tribune.
Lewistown, Nov. 25.-The Fergus
County Oil & Gas company, owned
entirely by local men and which has
thus far simply leased acreage to ope-
%rators, has just paid it's second divi-
dend of 10 per cent for the present
year. The concern started early in the
oil game here with very little capital,
secured q lot of acreage. and is today
getting good royalty from nine wells
in the Cat Greek field. Its officers are
Mike J. Hall, president; James A.
Weaver, vice president, and Charles J.
WoodWorth, secretary and treasurer.
To the surprise of all oil men the
Mid-Northern has suspended drilling at
its well in the SpindIetop structure,
south and east of Grass Range. where
it was making such excellent progress
with all the indications encouraging
1t is generally believed that the com
pany's inability to ecure certain much
desired acreage in this structure is
the cause of the shutdown. The land
owners in the Spindleton country are
greatly disappointed and disturbed
over this turn of affairs but it is
likely that an adjustment will be made
and work resumed.
Three weeks ago a baler was lost
in the well being drilled ON the Bauley
dome, near Denton, and this held up
progress, the drill being held by the
baler at a depth of 1900 feet. Word
was received here Friday stating that
at last the drill had got beyond it and
continuous drilling was expected until
the Kootenai was reached. The size of
the hole has been reduced to 53-16
inches and this is considered too small
for the whole distance to be drilled
and parties are here for an under
reamer in order to enlarge the hole
from the kootenai down.

California COMPANY,

California Company.
The California company, which has
been n of the active companies in
gaining acreage in other parts of the
field, was late in getting into the
southern end, according t. oil men,
and its activities have been largely dur
ing the last few days that the Berg
was drilling and since the well came in
as a gasser.
The southern end of the field, with
low acreage prices has been ideal
ground for the small investor in leases
and royalties, who have been entering
the field, oil men say. although the
combined purchases Of these lease buy
ers is small compared with the activ-

although its purchases have been
