STATE BUREAU OF MINES COM
PLETES STUDY OF TERRITORY
-LIKELY OIL POINTED OUT

Two parties from the Idaho bureau
of mines and geology have completed
four months of intensive field work in
the BOnneville-Caribou district, com
prislng AZ townships in southeastern
Idaho, designed to stimate the posi-
bilities of finding petroleum-yielding
formations in that portion of the
state.
Biologists recognize that certain
conditions are essential to oil accum-
ulation, the most important being
marine sediments at a source for the
oil. Other important factors are:
reservoir or containing rock, an i'm
pervious Gaping rock, a suitable
structure for trapping oil OF gas, a
high water saturation in the reser-
voir rock, sufficient gathering
ground for commercial concentration.
With these essentials in mind the
bureau made its examination.
1t was found that approximately
two-thirds Of the ssedimentary form
atoms present in the area are of mar
inc origin and small quantities of pc
troleum have been distilled from
shales Of some of these formations in
contiguous areas. Reservoir or con-
tanning rocks are abundant, since
sandstones of all degrees Of porosity
are present.
A large number of shales to act as
Gaping rocks are scattered through
out the formations, except among the
limestones of the Paleozoic forma-
tions

to the top Of the tower. There, lying

BARLEY smiled to himself as he ex-
amined the second card.
Roche asked, what do they mean7~
With a gesture that might have
meant anything. it was so expressive.
BARLEY replied, 'They had a care
party downstairs last night"
Roche was excited in a moment
Til tell you what It means. Some
one at that party killed Slyke. fol-
lowed him up here and killed him."
II was not a half-bad theory, and
even BARLEY did not protest as much
as I had thought he would Instead
he said. There is something in what
you say, Roche. We must look first
for the person who had the chance to
Kill him. You assume that after the
party the person who dropped these
cards did what any absent-mlnded
person might do. That Is, he placed
the cards Of his last hand in his
pocket. He may have followed Slyke
up here, hidden behind the curtain,
and 10 he killed him dropped some

theory did not quite appeal to him.

as If they might have been placed

if someone wished us TO think just
what you thought. Then there IL

glasses. All three glasses have been
drunk from. The glasses show that
they were all used at about the same
time. Evidently two Of the men
smoked: the third did not. What l
wonder is, were these three persons
in the room at one and the same

air of dissatisfaction, now offered to
help us make thorough examination
Of the room. When we had ended our

lent, puzzled expression on his face.

He went to the window and glanced
out, then came back and glanced up
at the steps that led to the roof. All
at once his face frightened, and mo
tioning us to follow him he bounded
up the seven steps to the little door
that opened onto the balcony. We
followed more slowly.
