Strip of Canadian Townships Ly-
ing Along the Border Also to
Be Brought in Touch with
the World by the Con-
StruCtion of 80 Miles
of Railroad.

Scobey, Mont, July-Eight hundred
farmers have Clipped in $325,000 with
the Great Northern Ry. to build 80
miles of railway extension and new
empire about twice the size of the
state of Rhode Island is being opened
in Montana This line which will be
extended west from Scobey, Mont,
parelleling the Canadian boundary is
to cost about $1,250,000. The farmers
and a few business men purchased
S325,0OO of Great Northern treasury
stock at par and the Hill line will fur
nish the balance of the money needed
to build the line.
This is the first time In the his
tory of the Northwest that farmers
have assisted in financing an exten-
sion line. These farmers have been
hauling their grain to market in wag-
ons and motor trucks, some of them
being obliged to travel 65 miles to
sell their products. Five new towns
will be established In this new do
main and each of these towns will
draw grain, live stock and other
farm products from about Is town
ships, representing areas that equal
the size Of the average Minnesota or
Iowa counties. Twenty miles of this
new railway will be completed this
fall and the rest will be built next
year. Considerable area in Canada
also will be served by this railway
extension. BY next year when the
road is completed, it is estimated an
additional million and a half bushels
OF wheat will be marketed from this
section. Most of the wheat raised in
this upper region of Montana is eager
ly sought by Eastern millers because
OF its unusually high protein content,
and it is sold on the market at a
premium Of Is cents or more per
bushel above ordinary wheat
The new empire which the exten-
sion of this line will open is one of
the most dependable wheat regions
on the North American continent I'M
der the summer fallow system of
agriculture. There are about 1,500-
900 virgin acres that will be culti-
waited to support this new railway ex-
ension The townsites are to be put |

architects can design. The new
holders consist of about 95 per

Kevin Oil Shipments
Reach 5000 Car Mark

Shipments of oil out Of Kevin
and Sunburst on the Great North
.ern railway since the Kevin field
opened reached the 6.000-carload
mark last Saturday, according to
an announcement made by j. S.
Book, general agent of the Great
Northern railway at Great Falls.
The 5000 carloads include moth
ing but refined products and fuel
oil. Crude oil is not included and
these figures do not give the
amount Of oil run through pipe
lines from the field.
Although the field became a
producing area in 1922, few ship
ments weremade until the follow
ing year, so the 5000 carloads
virtually represent the shipments
little more than two years. Mr.
Boek said.
Shipments now are averaging
from 140 to ITS carloads a week
and are gradually increasing.
Forty carloads of pipe, casing
and boiler and tank materials are
being shipped in to Sunburst and
Kevin, Mr.. Book said. The in
crease in production is reflected
in the activities Of supply COM
panies, who steadily are increas-
ing their yard, storage and ware
house facilities, particularly the
Continental Oil Supply company,
the National Supply company,
the Oil Well Supply company and
the Great Northern Supply COM
pany.
The amount of supplies now be-
ing shipped in is evenly divided
between Sunburst and Kevin,
Mr.. Book stated. = Great Falls

NATIONAL SUPPLY
TO LOCATE HERE

Kevin is becoming the center
for supply houses. This week
finds two cars of supplies on the
track for the National Supply
company, and it is reported that
they are now on their way with
their building from Sunburst.
Their site will be on the east
side of the Great Northern tract,
north of the Kevin Garage.
Such movements as this proves
beyond a doubt that Kevin is in
the lead for advancement. This
makes the third supply house for
Kevin, the Great Northern Toole
& Supply and the Continental be-
ing already established, and it is
rumored that the Oil Well Supply
company are making plans to
follow suit. But we would saw
that there will be plenty of busi-
ness for all, as we are setting
right in the center of the largest
oil field in the world and new
wells springing up around US
every day. Come on in boys, the
waters fine.

placed on the we'll and prepara-
tions begun to erect storage. No
estimate of the well was possible
but it was believed to be proba-
bly, the best producer on the west
side of the field,
The syndicate is largely owned
by Great Falls men. Among the
owners are George Sutherland,
F. C. Lampen, ]. w. Sherwood,
w. T. Greely. H. B. Lake, Bruce
Radigan, Alex Mavity, R. P.
Jackson and Mr.. Kirkpatrick.
The greater portion of the own
ers are connected with the grain
and milling business in Great
Falls.
The we'll is in the vicinity Of
the Campbell and Royal Cana
dian wells, and was stated by |
owners as being so located that /
it proves up a large territory.
Local oil men asserted that a pro-
nounced swing of development
toward the west side as result
IF the completion probably will
follow.
The quarter section owned by
the syndicate is the Sc 1435-3w,
and the well is located in the
southeast corner of the north

Alberta Oil Discovery
Kept Secret for Year

Calgary. How a utility cor
Doration, whose business is sup
plying natural gas, struck oil in
southeastern Alberta more than
IL months ago and kept the dis
covery a close secret until few
days ago was made known here
Thursday when it was announc-
ed that the Canadian Western
Natural Gas, Light and Power
company had cased off oil in con-
siderable quantity in their No. 5
gas well near Foremost, $50 miles
southeast of Calgary.
Meantime, it is said, company
officials n d employees have
blanketed the country in that
vicinity with leases.
The Foremost field has always
been considered straight natur-
al gas proposition and the com
pany bored many wells there to
augment their natural gas supply
for Calgary and other communi-
ties in southern Alberta where
gas is the chief fuel.
The news finally leaked out
through suspicious aroused when
the Lethbridge manager for the
company and other employees fill
ed on many leases in the Fore
most field.
According to the story, the oil
was struck at depth of 2,002 |
feet and rose about 100 feet in
the hole. Sworn to secrecy, the !
drillers bored on, casing off the
oil and reaching the gas sands
some so feet lower. And the
secret was successfully guarded
for more than year, the strike
being made last June.
In view of the feverlsh activity
in the Turner Valley field, 100
miles northwest of the Foremost
holes, the news Of oil in this sup
posed gas district has caused a
furry in oil circles. Government
biologists, who have been work
ng on data in the Alberta field,
are said to be considerably an
1oyed that the strike was not
made known before. In some re-
,pects the discovery may throw
IN entirely new light on the oil
search in Alberta. The Foremost
ield is within so miles of the
Montana boundary, but is farth-
,r east than any oil drilling has
ret been undertaken.
Geologists say the new strike {
s important for some of the {
reasons; {
First strike in quantity on the {
,as dome structures scattered on
central plains of western Canada. l

JOPLIN SCRIBE
THINKS FIELD
THEBEST EVER
Hundreds of Men are Working
Like Bees 100000 Barrels
in the Pipe Line Run for June

Editor Kester and family drove
to the Keyin oil fields Saturday,
going by way of Shelby. We had
thot we were pretty we'll read
up on oil activities, but were
somewhat astonished at the pro-
gress which has gone on so near
us in the past few years. Three
years ago going over the same
route the first oil we'll we saw
were the Gordon Campbell No.
and 2, four miles north of Kew
in. Today one finds small villages
long before he reaches Kelvin
that look almost as large as Ke-
vim did at that time.
The roads were pretty good
most of the way and especially
fine between Keyin and Sun
burst. The road, altho graded,
was not so good from Sunburst
on to the Canadian line. On the
whole it was an interesting and
enjoyable trip.
Oil derricks dot the landscape
like the trees of the forest. The
larger proportion of these der
ricks show brown and oily ap-
pearance which tell unmistaka-
bly, the fact that they are pro-
ducers. The month of June was
an active one in the Kelvin field; !
the pipe line runs for that month /
being stated to have totaled ap- I
proximately 100000 barrels. a
During the week ending Julyi
IL. the pipe line runs averaged
8, ,l10 barrels daily, as compared
with daily average of $500 for
the week ended July 4. This is
considerably below the actual
production Of the field and indi-
Gates production Of 100000 bar
rels or more for this field in July 4
At the present time Kevin is
producing twice as much oil as /
any field in the Rocky Mountain
district with the exception Of
Salt Creek.
There were AZ compilations in
the field in June, of which 81 |
were commercial and 10 dry
holes. The 81 producers showed
a total flush production of 9,460
barrels daily. At the end of June.
there were 72 strings of tools at:
work in the field compared with
80 in April and so in May. 1t was
truly wonderful and it is ifnpos-
sible for us to convey to our !
readers the magnitude Of the op-
erations going on. If you have
not seen the field, we say it is
we'll worth your time to go and
ook it over. The Liberty County

count stated in an agreement

then agreed between the compa-
ny and the syndicate that the
sum of $40, ,903.95 was

ment was lawfully entered into
