We'll is Going STRONG


The Majestic Oil and Gas company
Louis-Davis NO. l. well was put on
the pump today, and will be cennele
ed with the international pipe line
tonight, when a thorough test Of the
production can be made. This we'll
has been held in, since brought in, as
they did not have available tankaga,
and the international refinery, Of
Sunburst started Immediately to lay
a two-inch pipe line, from there to
it's refinery, which was completed to-
day.
The Louis gusher is making good
quality Of oil and very little water,
not enough to hardly mention, and
there is absolutely no foundation to-
the reports of the Great Falls new
papers, that the well is Showing
considerable amount of water. These
reports are without doubt abarEssl
by those who are desirious Of AZ
quiring acreage on the west aidel
which is in great demand.
The Majestic Oil and Gas company
Davis No. /, is located in the center
cf sm4 of section 27-35-3 west. Prs
du,ctiDn was found in the Koosenai|
sand, which has only been scrached.
The depth, at the time the gas came
roaring in, later followed by oil gl5n-
ing over the top of the derrick, was
1850 feet.
The oil is a light green and tests
at 1873, and is now bringing 20 cents
over the posted price for OIL in the
field.
The Marharg OH company, Of which
J. E. Andrus of Minneapolis, is heed
of the company, and A. Kascht. is the
field manager, has five producing
wells on their acreage, known as the
Rock permit, located about
mile or so northeast Of the Louis
gusher, tests 81 degrees Baunle, anil
these wells have had a very small
rate of decline.
The Big Elephant Strange well IS
located two and one half lnjres south !
west of the Louis Davis No I, anal

lust a little west OF the Big Elephant

e. G. T0rrant, contractor and drill
er for the well now going down on
the Ward lease in section 2S, s9udd- /
ed in during the past few days, and
are now drilling below $50 feet They
will drill two towers. A 6-cylalnderl
gasoline motor is being used, the on
Nv equipment OF the kind in opera +
tion in the field.
With the Mill City company, Ca
madam concern, drilling below SOC
feet in sw sw section 29-35-3 west,
the west side promises to be the buey
spot of the Keyin oil field during the I
coming season. L McLay is drilling
for the Mill City.
There was deal completed today
for the purchase of the Madeline
ven. located in 3322J-4 west, which
now down 600 feet. Bruce Radigan
and sSlim' Hungerford have taken
