been taken over by Senator T. s.
Hogan of Billings and associates of
Washington. d. c.. he announced
Thursday night on his return to Great
Falls from the east.
The tract is described as the west
half of the Wig ER 1852 W and the

operations for the development of the
permit will be begun soon.
The rig on the acreage recently TAX
en- over by Senator Hogan in sections
y and 22-35-c w is now virtually
erected and the well will be spudded
in within the next few days. It is
just 16 days since the drilling agree
ment was signed by Senator Hogan
and since that time he has loaded his
rig in Wyoming. constructed his der
rick and now has his string of tools in
Kelvin ready to be hauled to the loca-
ton. He had posted $4,000 to spud
in in 80 days and will beat that time
by a large margin.
Mr.. Hogan has just returned from

QUIT DRILLING
WHEN zoo FEET
FROM FORTUNE
Being the Tale of Ups and
Downs of Joe Baker,
Again in Luck.

Lucky Joe Baker was his name IL
Cat Greek when he first entered thai
field and cleaned up. "Unlucky joe
it became when fortune seemed to have
deserted him and he drilled three wells
without results, one Of them, says the
Democrat-News of Lewistown, within
200 feet of the riches tapped by recent
gushers.
Today it appears that the luck tha,
characterized Joe Bakers early rise in
the Montana oil game has returned. ac-
cording to a story told by him on his
recent visit to Great Falls.
Several weeks ago on a visit to the
field, a friend having holdings in the
Kelvin Sunburst field told Baker he had
a lease be would like to give him to be
turned if possible. Joe looked it up
found it was two miles from the Sun
burst, then drilling, and said he didn't
want it. When he returned TO Spo-
kane, he found that his insistent friend
had mailed him the lease. telling him
to do what he could with it. 1t lay
about Joe's desk until the day after
the Sunburst came in, when Joe looked
it up and saw that it placed him in an
advantageous position in the field
With this return of luck to Luck Joe"
the Democrat-News comments:
Mr.. Baker was one of the first to
get in the Cat Creek district and he
cleaned up. Then he was looked upon
as a wizard. one of fortunes favorites
As head of the Baker syndicate he put
down a well in section II. going to the
sand where the 56 had secured all its

Mr.. Baker tried another in the field
in all putting down three wells without
getting production in any of them.
His well in section IL was but q
stones throw from the location of the
Mid Northern's marvellous gusher. re
ported as flowing 10000 barrels. When
il had no more oil showings than the
Baker well did. but the Mid Northern
finally decided to 60 on down 200 feet
more to the second sand. This was
Just an experiment, but it turned out
to be one of the most amazing sue
cesses ever scored in the entire west.
Two hundred feet of drilling would
have brought Joe Baker and his stock
holders a fortune. but two hundred
feet is a long distance to see into the
ground and not one at that time had
any idea that the second sand held
the marvellous pool of liquid gold it is
now sending up through the Mid
Northern and Frantz wells. Mr.. Baker
expended the syndicate's money and
most Of his W in securing leases and
putting down three u~nproductive wells,
but he gave everyone an honest run
for their none and was himself by far
the heaviest loser. However, that is
the oil game and he may recoup hand

from the field. The men at work or
the location said that they held a con
tract for the digging of addition
al pits for the same company.
The location is in the center OF leases
taken over by the California, largely
from Arby Beardslee and +. NJ. Rel
of Butte, and is three miles west OF the
Troy-Sweetgrass in section 2S-34-l W
which has been drilling n deep test
with a diamond drill. With this vel
going down. it will be the furthest
south drilling with standard equipment
and will be important step in deter
mining the character of a large part OF
the southern part of the field.
The nearest locations to the new
California location is three miles
north. where the Big West has a rig
and w. NJ. Fulton is drilling. On the
west. in section 6-34-2 w, the Aloe
Oil company is drilling.
The evidence of a drilling campaign by
the California in the southern part OF
the field was considered Of Importance
by oil men of Great Falls as meaning
that the southern portion of the field,
where that company has extensive hold

COMPANY
HITS Big GAS
FLOW AT 1850
Strike Is Made at Virtually
Same Depth as Sunburst; to
Be Used to Fire Boiler.

The Louis Oil company struck its
heavy gas flow Wednesday at depth
of a little more than 1850 feet, ac-
cording to reports received in Great
Falls. Arrangements are now under
way to place the gas under the boil
er for continuing the drilling opera
tons.
The Louis Oil company is drilling OF
the SEA 14-35-3W. slightly less than
two miles east, and slightly south of
the Gordon Campbell-Kevin syndicate
discovery well. The point at which
the gas was struck is virtually the
same as in the Sunburst Oil & Gas
producer in section 3 4-36-2W and the
members Of the company and oil men
of Great Falls saw the early bringing
in of the gas as a significant promise
of production at the same horizon as
the Sunburst or 1850 feet.
Definite word of the size of the
gas flow has not reached Great Falls
although the fact that it is to be
used under the boiler is taken to mean
that it is probably as heavy as il. the
first two producers in the field. The
gas was struck in the Sunburst at
1855 feet although there is some
Typographical difference between the
two. The Louis is about 40 fee high
er geographically than the Campbell
well and a similar distance lower than
the Sunburst.
When the gas was near Wednesday,
the drilling had to be suspended for
lack of fuel oil, according to a tele-
gram received in Great Falls by r. p.
Jackson. who is interested in the com
pany. A small supply of oil was OBJ
tanned from the Homestake Explora-
ion to permit drilling into the gas pro-
duction and to operate while lowering
casing after which the gas will be
piped. The casing of the well is now
under way and conditions are favor
able. according to a telegram received
Thursday night from W. T. Greedy, a
a member of the company, who was in
the field.
The Louis company is drilling on the
A. +. Louis permit and is backed
largely by Great Falls business men.
The rig doing the drilling is that of
.Arby Beardslee. who is interested in
the enterprise and H. E. Whittekind
is in charge of drilling operations.
