A dark cloak encircled one of
the contestants in the race of the
year" in the Darling pool OF North
Cut Bank this week as Nadeau
Brothers raced against Father Time
in the effort to bring in a CONNER
cial well before the end of the year
1888.
While the oil industry counts the
grains of sand in the hour glass,
composed of minutes, hours and
days, to follow Father Time, Ma
deau Brothers announced that drill
ling depths VIII be withheld until
the race is ended, so the spectators
will not know the progress until
the finish. A good guess on present
depths is 1900 feet, with nine days
to go. Surface casing was cemented
at 513 feet
The last information given out
was when the Nadeau well hit the
top of the Colorado, at 49S feet.
The Yukon-Lungren producer, a
bout a half mile northwest, which
is flowing around 70 barrels of
1877 gravity crude per day, had the
top of the Colorado at 3S5 feet.
The Nadeau well has a surface ell
ovation of 1883 and the Yukon
well is 1897 feet above sea level.

BIRD MAKES
ANNOUN Cement
OF REFINERY

Formal announcement OF plans
for the construction OF a refinery
at Cut Bank has been made by
Frank Bird OF Glacier Production
company, the plant TO have a ca
pacity OF 1900 barrels per day. II
will be a Dubbs installation includ-
ing modern polymerization plant
and will be constructed as an adj
junct to the present absorption
plant east OF the town of Cut Bank.
The plant is expected TO furnish
no additional market other than for
the capacity operations OF Glacier
Production company which must de-
yelop an ultimate production of
300 barrels per day TO supply the
Inland Empire refinery at Cut Bank,
which will be in operation after the
first of the year, with rated ca
pacity OF 1900 barrels per day
The engineering firm of Bechtel,
McCone-Parsons Corporation will
construct the new plant. Oversize
equipment has been ordered to pro-
vide for easy plant expansion when
the market affords increased out
put. Universal Products company,
owner OF the Dubbs patents, design
ed the plant which will be the new
type which yields a maximum of
high octane gasoline through selec-
tive cracking.
A 56-acre site adjoining the alb
sorption plant on the south has
been purchased from Viva Evans
OF Spokane Location is such that
steam generated at the absorption
plant will furnish the power for
the refinery and the present labora-
tory and camp of the absorption
plant will also serve the refinery.

A heavily-built, blonde boy by
name of Sturnick, veteran guard
for Alexandria, rolled up ten points
Saturday evening, and that was the
difference in the game.
Trying to win the hard way the
Toftnessmen lapsed into an almost
despairing second place when at
halftime they trailed Is to 3. But a
driving second half offensive that
slashed the Alexandria defense to
ribbons, bested the efforts Of Alex
andria. But the come back was too
late and Alex was winner 26 to IS
It is by far the neatest attempt at
a comeback that the locals had dis
played this season. 1t speaks well
for them that they don't tire and
lose their spirit when trailing.

remark that completely renovated

cords. In the first part Of the game
Alexandria and Sank Centre each
took 20 shots. The former converted
seven, while the locals sufficed
with one.
