TOWN OF BAKER
IS CROWDED BY
new ARRIVALS

BAKER-This placid inland town
was this week a scene of excite.
ment and bustling activity such az
comes only to an oil boom town
Already overcrowded housing con-
ditions were made a serious prob
lem as biologists, lease men and
big company scouts from Montana,
Wyoming, Colorado and the Mid
continent crowded into the town.
That Baker-Glendive structure
an anticline 80 miles long and full
ly six miles in Widths proven for
oil is accepted as a fact among To-
cal people and visitors do not dis
pute the belief. That it is "blue
chip" oil field is likewise unques
toned. Sixty-seven hundred foot
drilling will be justified only by a
production of 200 barrels per day
or better and 1t is in any event a
big company operation The likh-
hood of many Independent operators
drilling and producing 670O-foot
wells depends solely upon the initial
production of these wells.
The structure is already untitled
for gas development. Unit develop
ment OF oil will doubtless follow,
giving Montana-Dakota Utilities SUI
preme control in the field. ANY
important deal for the oil rights on
the main structure will have to be
with the Utilities company which up
to this time has confined itself to
gas production.

record prices may be expected for
either leases or royalties because of
the vase expanse of possible produc-
ing territory. Royalties are selling
for around $1,000 for 10 on 800
acres-a little over SO per acre
point. Uncertainty as to the result
of unit operation serves to depress
the market for both leases and
royalties.
