The Montana-Pacific we'll, 10 miles
southwest of Conrad has conclusiyely
Identified itself as a discovery and
established the Pondera oil feld-rec-
commended for exploration by Ralph
Arnold-as a proved area This new
est Montana oil field is now proved for
both commercial oil and gas produce
ton. and is the most important dis
coyery since the opening up of the
K~eyin-Sunburst area In 1922.
Increasing gas pressure made impera-
tive opening of the well and a few days
ago the pressure was released by w. M.
Fulton, the drilling contractor n owner
of considerable acreage T. the field. OIL,
coming from II feet below the gas hori-
zon, was thrown in a dense cloud TO the
top of the derrick n vas caught by
the high wind and carried out over the
prairie. The interior of the derrick house
was a sea OF oil. Oil dripped from every
where about the rig. Prairie grass near
the derrick dropped under the weight OF
1t.
The we'll proved itself with the pro-
ducing formation only touched by the
drill. No attempt was made to closely
estimate the production as the we'll
stands, but experienced operators at the
rig stated that 1t probably would flow rs
barrels a day without further drilling.
without Trace of Water
The oil is brown, high gravity crude,
without a trace of water evident. At
first it was thought that the oil would
show q gravity of 10 or 10, but with the
larger volume available, Mr.. Fulton
stated that the gravity was as high as
that of the crude from the famous Full
ton pool in Kevin-Sunburst-a 80 gravity
product. A heavy odor Of gasoline is
evident about the rig.
Decision to drill the we'll in immedi-
ately was reached when it became ap-
parent, after the we'll was opened, that
this could be done without setting cas-
ing.
Proves New Field
The Montana-Pacifc we'll proves a new
Montana field and stands as the most
important Oil event In Montana since the
bringing in Of the Campbell discovery
near Kelvin six years ago. As it now stands
the we'll will precipitate an extensive
development program and 1T was init
mated that the Montana-Pacifc will Sc
lect its next location with an idea to
further exploration.
The geology Of the field was developed
by E. B. Emrick, who also spotted the
well site and interested MIR. Arnold in
the territory. Mr.. Arnold approved EN-
rick's geology and first made arrange
ments for drilling OF the test we'll by
s. c.. Lewis of California, who forfeited
his rights in the field a few weeks 60.
The Montana-Pacifc then took the we'll
over and made q new deal with Con-
tractor Fulton.
MIR. Arnold and Mr.. Maui entered the
Montana field q year ago n last fall
Mr.. Arnold recommended half a dozen
Montana structures for exploration, de-
velopment contracts being let pursuant
to a cooperative plan which they intro
duced. Operators who last fall o over

Although the Calgary Exhibition and
Stampede has an international reputa-
ton for being the most thrilling, In
bratiOn held anywhere, the directors
and management are determined hat
this combined event which is to be
held at Calgary, July IL to 16. Canada's
Goth anniversary year., Will surpass all
others.
Three new features will d thrills and
greater interest. These include a new
stampede contest called steer decorating,
the appearance for the first time in Can
ada of Brahma steers for the steer rid
ing contest n a novelty stage produc-
ton. AT the Fair" which will be the
closing feature of each evenings pro-
gram.
The Brahma steers are a cross between
the sacred cattle of India and the Texas
cattle, and are similar to the Texa cat
tie in build with very long horns. To
say they are wild and hard to ride is
putting 1T mildly.
The wild steer decorating contest is q
death defying, daredevil stunt, where the
cowboy leaps, barehanded, from the back
of a %galloping horse to the horns OF a
wild steer and places a ribbon on the
horn against time. No rope used; only
his bare hands The acme of thrills, a
feature being introduced for the first
time anywhere where cowboy nerve,
Drawn and skill are unexcelled.

will close each evenings program n front

Porcupine and other fields were allotted

ture. Pondera has been less in the lime
light than any OF the other fields recon-
mended by Mr.. Arnold. There were times
when it was referred TO as "the orphan
of the bunch" but Mr.. Emrick and MIR.
Arnold suggested that the pessimists

Both biologists w maintained from

tion. Mr.. Arnold shook and with Mr..

To Test Helena Valley

Helena soon will see the initiation Of
a genuine oil well boring industry in the

positive as can be that oil In commercial
quantities will be found in the part of
the valley where the drilling will be
done"

CHAPTER XXXVI.
The Night Before.

Dorothy was almost childishly ex-
cited the night before she was to APP
pear in court. For one thing, she was
to see Helen. 1t had been almost
three weeks since she had seen her
baby. and she wanted her.
How wonderful to have Helen and
Anthony, too.
Ted would see that he couldn't
threaten her!
her that there would be nothing to it.
lie was virtually certain that the judge
would award her the child. And so
the night before, when Tony had
called, she had been very gay.
Tony watched her fit around the
room. What a restless little butterfly
thing she was, a creature made to
take care of and love. Tony had no
feeling of conscience where Edgar
Wood was concerned. He had never
considered the husbands of women
with whom he wished to ftirt, and
this was the husband of the woman
he was going to marry.
When he said It to himself he could
hardly believe it. 1t didn't seem pos
sible that he was actually going to
be married. There We're times, too.
when he questioned himself about the
depth of his love for Dorothy. 1t
was true that she charmed his senses
to a certain extent, but was it enough
for permanence? On! well, he had to
settle down some time anyway, and
he had asked her to marry him. All
of this attendant publicity was be-
cause Of it. and he was gentle
man.
If the truth were known, however,
Tony had expected something more.
In spite of the fact that he had al
ways told himself that when he mar
ried he would choose wisely and
well, he had been curious about that

THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE

Sunday June 10.
Astrologers read tomorrow as an
uncertain day in which adverse
planetary influences dominate.
Women are well directed under this
sway. although they may have a
tendency toward independence that
is irritating to men.
There Is an suspicious sign for
romance and love affairs in which
women may be inclined to take the
initiative.
This is held to be lucky rule
for marriage engagements and
betrothals made while this configu-
ration prevails are likely to be
binding.
There is an aspect favorable to
marriage tomorrow, which shows
possibilities for success in which
there may be difficulties to overcome.
Men are subject to planetary in
fluences that accent their natural
egotism, it is asserted by the seers.
Husbands may be unusually trying
while this sway continues.
Quarrels may be easily started to-
morrow and for this reason families
will do we'll to pass the hours out
of doors and away from household
worries
Churches may suffer from lack. of
interest tomorrow when the stars in
cline the mind toward material In
teres;s.
A sceptical or questioning attitude
may be apparent to preachers and
teachers. who will perhaps find it
difficult to obtain the right response
in appeal to the spiritual side of
humanity.
The moon tomorrow Is in a sign
70 hn
toward an easygoing existence.
An important treaty between the
United States and a country on the
Mediterranean is again forecast.
Persons whose birthdate is tomor-
row may have some new connection
with a government building or a
public institution.
Children born tomorrow may have
extraordinary ability and they are
likely to be ahead of their time.

Health, Looks and Weight.

One warning may be necessary to
all women who are thinking about
reducing-most women think a long
time about reducing, getting steadily
fatter as they think, before they
actually get down to dieting. The
warning Is: Don't reduce rapidly and
energetically at first, then get slack
and stop the whole process. In the
first enthusiasm of losing flesh and
gaining back youthful figure. many
women take off pounds and pounds
the first few weeks, then feel little
weak or i'll, get alarmed and begin to
eat back more than what they've lost
the net result being nothing.
Many more, realizing that quick re-
duction is injurious to the system. stop
1t and decide that as nature evidently
intended them to be stout, there Is
nothing they can do about 1t and
it probably is becoming, and, anyway,
they are not nearly as stout as Mrs
So-and-So, around the corner. And
many simply get bored with the
business and gradually drop it.
PAN your reduction diet and stick
to it. You should lose quarter of
a pound a day, not much more and
not much less. Turning this into
calories means eating 1000 calories
less per day than you do normally,
perhaps eliminating more than 1000
that depends on the amount Of ex.
cess fat you haye and the amount you
eat. A normal days supply Of food

for a woman of average weight and
not too strenuous habits is about

substituting others.
