THE M Y S TIC
IS ACTUALLY MYSTICAL IN ITS
PERFORMANCE


Refrigeration is a modern necess
ity. Everyone acknowledges the need
for preservation of our food. 1t now
remains to know the cost How much
will it cost to keep foods cool?' The
answer is the Mystic Iceless ,Refrig-
orator Nothing. Absolutely no cost
to keen the Mystic performing its
miracle year after year
The Mystic utfiizes one of natures
most common laws evaporation and
the result is coldness Of a degree
you never thought possible. It is on
II necessary to pour from one to two
quarts of water into the top of the
Mystic every day That is absolute
" all that is required. BY evapora-
tion, wonders are performed due to
the composition of the Mystic.
DR.. S. A. Huntington, market milk
specialist analyst and food chemist
6O9 Puget Sound Bank Bldg, Taco
ma, Wash, says:
Having spent several years of re-
search and experimentation qualify
ing as an expert on refrigeration, it
was with a kcenIy critical mind and
eye that investigated the Mystic
Iceless refrigerator, but like man il
the poem, 'fwho come to scott and re-
manned to pray my investigation
(which included construction detail
Of the Iceless refrigerator, materials
used, and theory and principle Of op-
GRAFTON, together with exhousive OK
perimentation) resulted in an order
of one for my home.
It is my firm belief and opinion
that the Mystic Iceless Refrigerator
fills the gap between the oldfashion-
ed ice box and the electro-refrigera
ton, and sincerely and highly rec
ommend it to those who have found
the ice box Inadequate to take care.
Of their needs"
Demonstration of the Iceless Re
frigerator is now on display at the
White Cash Store, Keyin, by it's To-
cal agent, J. W. Butch" Perron, who
certainly amazed people of our town
and field when he placed more than
twenty orders for machines the first
afternoon.
Mr. Perron, who has bought the
manufacturing nights for the Prov
lance OF Saskatchewan, left Monday
for Saskatoon where he will open al
factory, he will also go to Winnipeg,
Toronto, and probably Montreal sell
ing manufacturing rights Of the diff
ferent provinces.

ANTELOPE RUNNING
ON WEST SCHOOL LAND

E. W. Gillespie, who resides few
miles west Of Keyin was in town Sac
urday looking after business matters.
Mr. Gillespie informs the editor that
five head of Antelope have been run
ming on his place the past winter, un-
til recently they have strayed to q
school section. Mr.. Gillespie says that
he understands that some shooting
has been done at the Antelopes, and
this is a dastardly low down trick to
do, and we believe that the guilty
parties should be prosecuted.

BAKER WELL HAS
LARGE CAPACITY
OFFICIAL REPORT AT LOCAL
OFFICE SAY WELL is DOING
500 BARRELS PINcHED TO HALF
CAPACITY TO GIVE CHANCE OF
CLEARING TANKS OF STORAGE
OIL.


The Baker -Barnhill-Corey well in
9-34-1, is still the theme of discussion
among oil men in the Kevin-Sunburst
field. Instead of going back to water
after flowing more than a month, as
predicted by some, it has increased
its flow and is making pure pipe line
oil with only a trace of water. This
fact is verified by the pipe line peo-
pie as well as Mr. Jett, who is in
charge for the local company on the
lease. 1t is now conceded by oil men
that the well will not go back to wat
. er as the oil is coming clean and with
force that indicates it must be
coming from an immense pool.
Good fer 1000 Barrels
Already something like 10000 bar
rels Of oil have passed through the
pipe line to tie refinery from this
well. Early in the week thu report
sent to ii local office of the com
pany sas that the we'll was pinched
IN to 50V barrels per day, but they
we're turning III between 700 and 800
barrels to the pipe line. There is on
the lease tankage of about 5000 bar
rels and UP to that time the tanks
were all full The production from
the well was being pinched down for
the purpose of getting some of the
tankage emptied before increasing
the capacity of the well. The report
said that the 500 barrels was not moro
than half its capacity. When this
we'll came in originally, it was esti-
mated at 600 barrels, and after II
started to produce oil again, instead
CT water, about a month ago, it was
estimated by oil men at 800 barrels.
Today it is conceded to be one Of the
best wells in the field as to the pure
ness of the oil coming from the well,
and experienced oil men are ready
to ccncede its capacity to be any
where from 800 to 1900 barrels per-
Gay. The pressure and the oil has
greatly increased since the oil sup
planted the water and it is difficult
to estimate just what capacity it may
have by the time the peak if its pro
duction is touched.
1t is understood that it will be held
down to around 800 barrels per dag
and will not reach that point until
the dozen or fifteen tanks Of storage
Gil has been run through the pi7e
line, together with the 500 barrels
now coming from the well. -KaIis-

JUDGE GREENE SUS-
TANNED in SUIT

The action of the district court oi
! Toole county in rendering judgement
in favor Of the defendant by sustain
ing a demurrer to the complaint was
affiamed in part and reversed by a
decision handed down by the supreme
court of the state of Montana on Jan.
uary 25, 1928, in the case Of the
Homestake Exploration corporation
versus w. H. Schorregge, county
treasurer.
The plaintiff in it's complaint ask
ed judgement against the county for
the sum of $53494 on the first cause
q action, $82.S2 on the second cause
Of action and $1.SS on the third cause
OF action. The lower courts action
N dismissing the complaint as to the
first and second causes was affirmed,
hut as to the third cause Of action
the cause was remanded for further
proceedings in the lower courts. The
basis of the suit was to recover taxes
previously paid the county under
protest by the plaintiff. The taxes
SO paid were on royalty oil and the
plaintiffs contention was that it was
not liable for the payment of taxes
upon the royalty oil, and having paid
them under protest brought suit to
recover the same.
II interpreting the leases under ques-
tion in the first and second causes OF
action the supreme court upheld the
contention of the lower court that
under those leases the oil produced
belonged to the leasee and was pro-
Derly assessed to the operator, even
though the operator in turn was OBJ
ligated to deliver a certain percent
age Of the oil to the land owner.
In Interpreting the lease in the third
cause of action the supreme court
held that the lease by its terms ex-
pressly reserved title in the land
owner of a certain percentage Of t1c
oil and that therefore the lessee was
not liable for the tax on the so re-
served.
The story in the Great Falls Tri-
5une issue Of January 26th, from
which it appeared as though the act
ion OF the district court was revers-l
ed in which, was erroneous since the
cnly cause Of action in which the
lower court was reversed was the
third cause Of action, in which the
lower court had refused to render
judgement for $1.SS on that cause Ct
action.
Other operators besides the plain
tiff in this case paid the tax under
protest and brought suit to recover
the Same. The more important of|
these suits are the similar suits brot
by the Rice Oil company, the Fulton
Oil company and the Queen City Oil
company all against the County
Treasurer, for S112s546. $7,S1122
and $S,1os cS, resi- cctively. TneI
