FLYNN LUMBER COMPANY
!. SELLS LOCAL INTERESTS

A deal was closed yesterday where
by the well-known firm of Grogan-
Robertson, lumber concern, became
the owners of the Flynn Lumber COM
pany, operating at this place. The
Grogan- Robertson company are old
operators in this state in their line.
Mr. E. Hillius, who has been man
aging the lumber yard for the Flynn
company, will still remain in charge
here. Mr.. Hillius has made many
friends since his entrance here, md
no doubt the new firm will appreciate
a good business under his guidance.
The Review is glad to see such an
establishment as the Grogan-Robert-
son company enter Kelvin, and this
alone proves that opportunities are
ahead for the coming oil field.

Barthleote dome is developing
yreater interest than perhaps any
other wildcat test in the state OK
Montana at the present time. The
entrance of third company into the
district is rumored, with the inten-
ion of drilling a test. That there
is oil in the region OF the Sweetgrass

of gas and showings of oil in Weiis

JULIAN PET. ADDS
jOK rs MORE WELLS

The Julian Petroleum cOroration,
which recently acquired the 400 acres
under lease by the Rice and Fulton
Oil comanies in the Kevin-Sunburst
field, has added to its California hold
ings by the purchase OF the Superior
Oil company, according to informa-
ton received in Great Falls Tues
day by ]. Battersby, general manager
of Montana operations for the Julian
company.
Through the purchase of the Super
ior company, the Julian corporation
acquired approximately 5000 barrels
of settled production from rs wells.
In addition the Superior company
had, at the time the deal was COM
pleted, II wells near completion in
the Huntington Beach field near Los
Angeles. The consideration involv-
ed in the transaction was announced
by S. C. Lewis, president OF the Jul
ian corporation, as more than 81

The Montana properties, and the
newly acquired Superior holdings
will be a part OF the general assets
which the Julian corporation VIII
contribute to the final consolidation
Of this company with the Marine
corporation into a new company
which will be known as the Calf
ornia- Eastern Oil company.
When the consolidation, which is
now in progress, is finally completed
the California Eastern company will
have a daily production Of from 49,
900 to 10000 barrels daily and the
total assets of the concern will be
IN excess of $39.OOO,O0O

The Kalispell-Coleman we'll in Sc

Dan Macdonald is the contractor.
1t is reported that a well will be
shortly started on the nw-nw of 26

The Carter-Gypsy Co., is about to
drill several tests in 33 and "a, range

with a few wells about two years
ago, and the Ellis was found dry,
but considerable gas was found In

watched with considerable interest,
as the work is an entirely new ter

the stray sand in the Sunburst with
100 quarts. More drilling will be
done in this area, as there appears
to be considerable oil in this local

6 NEW WELLS COM
PLETED IN KEVIN

Completion of three wells in the
Kevin-Sunburst oil field, all brought

Wednesday morning. Each of the
wells will be good producer al

and it was reported that an excellent

good a showing for a new well as has
been found in this section of the
field.
The sand was loose and until the
well is cleaned out the amount Of
production will not be known. The

Wednesday in nine feet of Ellis
sand. The we'll is reported to have a
nice showing of oil and it is thought
that the shot will make good well
Carter-Howling No. 2 ne Sc NV 10

day and also will be shot. No report
on the well was received Wednesday

waste of fuel all heating in sumps
or tanks creates loss through evap-
Grafton of the lighter and more valu-
able constituents of the crude. This
evaporation does not appear in the
production records of most compan-
les, yet it cannot be ignored, and it
is claiming more consideration every
day
How Process Works
When water-in-oil emulsion Is
subjected to the influence of an al
ternating field of sufficiently high
potential, the small electrically
chared water particles rupture the
separating oil films and coalesce into
large water drops, which readily set
tie out by gravity. This important
principle was discovered by DR.. F.
G. Cottrell, through experiments con-
Quoted at the University of Califor-
MIA, in conjunction with DR.. Buckner
Syeed, which resulted in plant be-
ing installer in the Coalings, Calf,
field early in 1909. This plant was
capable of reducing IA per cent en-
ulsion to less than two per cent with
commercial success.
Use in California
In 1910 an eight unit installation
reduced so per cent complete and
rebeilious Pacific Coast emulsion to
less than one per cent. Since then,
due to the great economies effected
by the use of the electric process,
and the success achieved in deyh-
drafting crude oil emulsions of var
ious characteristics, its application
has been rapidly extended to all the
oil fields of California, where it is
now recognized as the standard meth
cd of dehydration.
The process will save millions Of
dollars in Kevin-Sunburst field in the
life of the field. If power is made
avilable.
