Contracts Made for Crude
on Larger Bosis

Lewistown, AFRO Oil and Rein

arrangements for installing at
its plant here the Dubbs process
for treating petroleum products
and manufacturing gasoline. j.
G. Parmeley, assistant chief en-
gineer of the Universal Oil com

here to get construction started
Immediately. 1t will require
about go workmen for periods Of
from 60 to 80 days to complete
the plant and have it ready for
use. The addition will enable the
AFRO to double its output and the
crude has been contracted for to
aupply this big gain. Additional
tank cars are being received to
take care Of the increased output.

Big Gas Flow

The Eagle-Mary Oil company,

sensation of the week. At this To-
cation gas estimated around 200,-
000feet was struck just below the
Sunburst sand. at a depth of a
trif1e below 400 feet. J.B. Peter
son, in charge Of the well. seems
to be very much popped" up ov-
er the prospects of getting a real
producer. Monday the crew was
bothered with cavings and they
were preparing to run casing. It
is thought that production will
be found here around 1900 or 100
feet. George Swab is the contra
ctor in charge.

HOMESTAKE PLACES 3 RIGS

Further development f the
Homestake Exploration corpora
tion's acreage in the Kevin field
will be carried on this season as
rapidly as may be possible with
three rigs in operation, according
to an announcement made Friday
at the corporations Great Falls
offices. Drilling will be put under
way with three rigs in the near
future and the corporations pro
gram calls for continuous opera
tions throughout the season.
Later in the year, it was stated
the drilling of some wells may be
contracted in addition to those
put down with the three rigs, but
no definite decision in this regard
has been reached as yet. The
greater portion of the season s
drilling will be done in the How
ling, Riebe and Pewters leases,
though it will be necessary to do
drilling also on other tracts.

Gasoline Law
Hurts Product

Helena. April /. Study Of the
new gasoline tax law, which goes
into effect tonight has convinced
NJ. B. Milligan, in charge of the
oil license tax administration for
the state department Of equaliza-
ton that its provision will react
against gasoline produced in
Montaea. Under the new law an
outside concern, by consignment
to itself, map absorb the gasoline
license and relieve the dealers.
Heretofore this has been a pre-
rogative of Montana producers
and is considered to have been of
some advantage in promoting
the consumption Of the Montana
product.

Commercial Would Prove
Large Kelvin Areo.

O'Neil Brothers-McC cCormick l..
well; sw sw ne section 33-35-2w,
is drilling at between [, 100 and
1,2O0 feet and should be one of
the week 81 competitions. Several
hundred acres would be proved
by commercial well on this
lease, which alone contains 800
acres and has never been drilled.
The Mccormick lease has been
much in the public eye during
the last several months because
of its figuring in acreage deals
that tended to establish a high
range of values for Kelvin land.
The land was taken over a month
ago by O'NeiI Brothers from
William Manifold and his associ-
ates and drilling of the first well
on the tract was Immediately
launched. The tract IS a half
mile north Of the Corey and Sho-
shone producers.
The Beaupre-Beaupre No. l

ROYALITE NO. -FOUR
BIG GAS PRODUCER

Calgary April 6. Probably the
first new development by the In
perial Oil company in Canada this
spring will be in the Turner Val

work will be started on two wells
nearthe Royalite No 4 wet gasser
within 80 days.
Two new Rotary rigs with COM
plete machinery, valued at $780,
900 were brought IN recently and
foundation work for two steel
derricks is now being laid.
RoyaIite No. A is now produc-
ing oil through distillation at the
rate Of more than 800 bbls. a day.
Company officials have stated
that this output is being main
tanned, but will not make sap
statement regarding a reported
increase in the oil content of the
wet gas.
The Imperial are also making
arrangements to continue drilling
The Rice Creek we'll west of Nan
ton, about half way between Cal
gary and the U. S. border. This
hole is down LILO feet.
At the Dead Horse coulee well,
north Of the Rogers-Imperial in
the Coutts district near the bor-
der, the company is preparing for
further drilling as soon as they
can haul fuel to the location. This
we'll is down 1000 feet.
The Imperial we'll at Coalspur,
west of Edmonton, in the north,
will be deepened this summer.
The hole is now down 3,10O feet
and is in good condition.
The company plans 0 take
this hole down 5000 feet if nee
essary and if this is done it will
be the deepest hole in Canada.
The present record is held by
the Imperial well t Pincher
Creek, in the south, which was
drilled to 1880 feet before it was
as a duster.

Crumley Finds Third
Producing Sand in Well

The Crumley & Mcknight Cor
ey No. 1, Sc Sc sw, 4-34-2w, has
established a record in this field
by piercing three stray sands a
bove the Ellis, all Of which have
been lightly productive.
The we'll was drilled in last June
as 100 bbl. producer, in a stray
sand at 1920 feet. After running
considerable oil, production began
to fall off and last fall the hole
was drilled to 1855, when another
stray sand was encountered,
which yielded 400 barrels daily
flush production.
This sand also began to fail and
this week the hole was carried to
l 400 feet, with the result that
the well is now rated as 200 bbl.
producerinone of the finest brown
quartz sands yet found in this
field. The sand was pierced at
1865 feet, 100 feet above the Ellis
horizon. The we'll shows no sign
Of water intrusion.

Three Fields May Get
Test This Summer

Two tests will be drilled near
Chester and Joplin this year, if
plans of Col. E. C. Tolley of Shell
by materialize. Mr.. Tolley has
arrangements practically compile
ted for drilling when sufficient
acreage is blocked. The Beck well
near Galata, will be completed
this spring, while two or more
tests in the Sweet Grass hills will
complete the list of wildcats with
in the north end of the Sweet
Grass arch.
Atestthls summer for the Dun
kirk dome, located a few miles
southeast Of Shelby, is more than
a possibility. Leases were taken
on this structure as far back as
1917. The war stopped activities
at that time, and shortly after
Gordon Campbell shifted atten-
ton to the northern part of the

ion. James B. Ewing, j. M. Klep-

Ask Rehearing on High
Court Gas Tax Decree

Helena. Reversal of the Mon
tana supreme courts decision
last Saturday, holding unconsti-
tutional the state gasoline tax law
amended in 1923, will be sought,
Attorney General Foot said Mon
day. He explained that his office
was preparing a petition to the
court for a rehearing.
The validity of the law was
attacked by the Sunburst Rein
ing company of Great Falls in
defending itself against states
suit to require payment Of the
gasoline tax for the first two
quarters of 1923. The court held
the law was discriminatory in
that it permitted the taxation of
Montana refineries but did not
tax gasoline brought into the
state.
The attorney general argued
that. at the time the law was
passed the United States supreme
court maintained the position
that a state tax could not be i'm
posed on gasoline shipped in. The
state supreme court referred to a
Of the federal court in
June, 1923, which permits such
taxation.
The court also held that the
law, as placed Oh the statute
books, gave the state power to
tax Montana produced gasoline
three times. While the board of
equalization does not agree with
this Interpretation of the law
and has not administered it in
that manner, a comparison of the
section as it appeared in the jour
nal of the 18th session Of the leg
islature with the copy of the bill
filed in the office of the secretary
Of state, indicates that a restric
tive clause was omitted, appar-
emily in transcribing the bill af-
ter its passage.

lost some time ago at A430 feet.
They succeeded in recovering the
bailer few days ago and proba-
DIV will get down to the tools in
the next few days.
A good many problems have
presented themselves to the drill
ers since the time this well was
started a year ogo. They have en-
countered heavy flows of gas and
water at various times. They have
passed through marine bed COM
posed of shells and other marine
life and at 4,400 feet reached a
hard formation which may be the
caprock as 50-foot sand is ex-
pected at about 4,500 feet.

ell and some of the more recently
discovered pools will soon be

The executives of the industry
are stoutly maintaining that there
i s nothing particularly wrong
with the industry and that we
should make dangerous inroads
on our reserves this year. The

ing ahead with its inquiry into
ways and means of conserving
our supplies, so it would seem
that about everyone were unite
