NEW OIL WELL IS
STRONG PRODUCER
Souders Well First Strike
BY Ohio in Dry Greek
This Year

After completion last week, the
Margaret t. Souders No. 2 we'll of
the Ohio company in Dry Greek
was flowing in limited amounts,
while forecasts of other drilling
projects in Dry Creek and nearby
fields were received here this
week.
The Souders well was brought
in when it entered the Lakota
sand, 5,472 feet deep. 1t was
drilled with rotary tools to the
top of the sand and completed with
cable tools. 1t began flowing by
heads, making $50 barrels an hour
during the first day, with consid-
cradle gas showing with the oil.
A twc-inch tubing was run to
the bottom of the bore, and the
bean choked down to 1-16 of an
inch, through which the well is
now flowing about $50 barrels a
day. Its possible daily flow could
be reckoned in thousands Of bar
rels, according to reports.
No trouble with water has been
experienced at the Souders. locat-

Chapman producer. 1t was the
first completion of 1888 for the
Ohio company in Dry Creek.
The Ohio is reported ready to
start drilling on the Maddox 1oca-
ton, south of the Bowman well.

water in the Armstrong bore, and
it was being drilled through
spark ignited gas in the we'll.

Oil from the Souders is the
characteristic 62-gravity, high
product of Dry Creek. The
field lies in the center of ring of
Montana and Wyoming structures

IMPROVE CAMPS
Fences Will Keep Cattle
And Sheep Away From
Camp Sheridan

Having completed the new pub
Tic camp grounds on Willow creek
near Red Lodge, a crew of the
Beartooth emergency conservation
corps is working on Camp Sheri-
dan, public park on the Main
Fork, while other outfits continue
on road building projects in the
Beartooth division.
The Pafisade camp grounds, in
the Willow creek canyon three
miles west of the city, has been
furnished with tables and stoves,
proper facilities for disposal of
garbage, and now is offered as am
attractive and convenient picnic
park. From the golf course a
road to the camp has been built.
Cattle and sheep that habitually
overrun the Sheridan creek camp
grounds have furnished n pop
ular reason why campers and pic
nickers have not favored the site.
Fences are now being built that
will keep stock off and away from
the grounds, according to forest

work. One fence is being built
along the mountainside near the

PRESENT DROUTH rs
SIMILAR TO SPELL
IN SUMMER OF 1888

High, variable winds and prac-
ticai1y no rain have combined to
make the past 40 days the hottest
and dryest June-July period ex-
perieneed here for many years,
according to records of L. A.
Draper, volunteer meteorologist
of the west bench. Another hot
spell started Monday, while irri-
cation water began to recede in
the bitches, and grasshoppers be-
came more numerous.
The maximum temperature Mon
day was 80 degrees, which fell to
SO degrees Tuesday. There have
been traces Of rain in the past
week, but the almost constant
winds nullified any beneficial eff
fects to crops.
Oldtimers are recalling the sum-
mer of '89. That summer, it is
said, the creeks and bitches were
replenished by little or no rain
after the spring freshets, and were
almost dry by the middle Of July.
Fish huddled together and died in
the creek bottoms.
Until a week ago, water in irri-
cation bitches had been flowing
full and high, fed by the unusual
store of snow in the mountains,
but water is running shorter now.
Grasshoppers are becoming a men
ace in many sections, attacking
even the leaves of trees.

Reduce License Tax
On the Foamy

city beer vendors license, and pro-

city license fee (amounting to half
of the state license fee) that there
were perhaps others who would
be willing to take over those lic-
enses at the present fees demand
ed by state and city.

We're Dominick Marine, Frank
Cornelio, Joe ebert, Henry Albert.
The city auditing or finance COM
mittee consists of w. w. Flash
man, chairman, Gus b. Foltz, Ray

A petition was presented by res.
idents of the northern section of.
Red Lodge, against the open drain.
age ditch on Third street, to Bon
ner venue. Consideration of the.
petition was postponed for the
next regular meeting.
A permit to engage in the.
trade was granted to
Dominick Favero, and his bond
approved.
City budgets received some pre-
urinary discussion, and the mat,
ter of new parking ordinances,
consequent to Cooke road traffic
through the city, was talked over,
hut no formal action was taken on
the matters.

 PARIS, Oct. 11.-Suits play a big part in the winter style pag- cant.
 Rich velvets with colorfu1 sat in blouses, heavy broadcloths trim med with furs and trim little hairy wools cut on the most tail ored lines add variety to the pie ture.
 Blouses with high necklines are universally chosen. Colors, dark CT than the suit are favored for sports and street costumes, while hues lighter than the sui. as preferred for formal afternoon models.
 Velvet For Formal Wear
 Velvet suits TOT formal afternoon wear are a distinctly 1884 note launched by winter fashion shows. They belong to the after fouI o'clock" hours and play no part in workaday wardrobes. Most of them are designed with hiplength jackets and skirts which are al- most ankle length and are worn with satin or lame blouses.
 One black velvet model, finished with a small high sable collar, is worn with a white satin blouse having neckline like a Chinese coat finishad in green, red and blue emproidery. Afternoon suits of black orinoline-backed taffeta giving the effect of having been quilted worn with loose hiplength capes of the same fabric are the "dernier cri'' in six o'clock smart ness.
 BrOadclcth Coed All Times
 Broadcloth or duvetyn suits in tones of black, dark green, navy brown or burgundy are the favor ite for all-around service, since they may be worn for any town function from breakfast to tea Many of them are collared in fui and worn with fur waistcoats and hats.
