The completion IS thus record
ed BY the Milestone Messenger
in wording strangely reminiscent
Of those stanEas Of Casey a.
the Bat, describing the horrol
in Mudville when Casey STRUCK
out:
AFTER nearly three years Of
hopes, expectations and visions
Of prosperity for our little com
munity. a great pail fell oy.
er our citizenry when the re-
port crashed on US last Fri
day that Ivanhoe Dome, after
being pierced to a depth Of
nearly s,100 feet. gushed forth
a stream OF hot water instead
Of the golden oil that was an
ticipated.
''In our last issue it viii be
remembered we stated that a
light body Of oil was encoup-
tered, also a light flow OF wa
ter. This did not interfere with
the operators and they contin-
ued to go deeper to the third
Cat Greek sands in order to
give this deep hole a thorough
test. But after going below the
5000 feet level. a heavy flow
OF hot water was encountered
too strong to 80 deeper with
the drin.
The failure OF this test OF
Ivanhoe Dome does not mean
that this field is to be abandon
ed, but work on a new location
win again be started next spring.
"The Milwaukee Railroad
Company, upon hearing Of this
great flow Of soft water. sent
out a man to measure the vol
ume Of the flow and also se-
cure samples Of the water which
was dispatched to the water de-
partment Of the Road at Chi
eago, and meanwhile the draw
ing Of the casing IS held up,
pending this decision. If the
Milwaukee road should use this
water a pipe line will be laid,
and as 1t Is on a gravity line
would flow directly to their sup
ply tanks here in Milestone and
in the end save them lot Of
money, as their monthly ex-
pense now in pumping water
here is said to be over $500.
'aThe rig used here will be
taken to the Cat Greek field
where two more shallow pump
ing wells win be put down at
'nce, and IL conditions change
throughout the country another
