Montana Oil and Mining Journal.
Dear Sir:
/ have Just received a clipping
from the Journal, Of April 23rd of
this year containing a story by the
late Mrs. Plassman, writer, in which
she tells about my Uncle Powell
(Pike) Landusky, holding a claim
for a friend of his until he had
time to file on 1t.
1 received a copy of this article
from Mrs. Plassman several years
ago. Your copy Is correct, except
that you did not deal fair when
you gave 1t the heading you did.
The casual reader would form a
wrong opinion of the person about
whom it. was written.
It is is not the same as the other
Montana papers that carried the
story had it. The original heading
was: When Pike Landusky played
the game square. You have it;
OLandusky once played fair) HOW
about yourself? Do you think that
is playing the game square? To
a man who is not here to defend
I have letters from many promin-
ent Montana people, that knew my
Uncle, who resent such things as
that.
Whether the story is true or not,
is not the point 1t is the heading

Once the presence of oil is established
BELOW THE LIME, we will have a new
epoch in our oil history. No matter where
the PendrOy well may stop, ITS prOduc-
tive horizon (shOuld it be below the
top of the lime) viii become the goal
of all drilling In the future. In Cat
Greek area the Cat Creek sands became
the goal of every well drilled although
there is only one Cat Creek. In Kelvin
Sunburst area, none would think Of
stopping at the Cat Greek horizon. But
none will go below the accepted Kelvin
Sunburst horizon at the top of the Madi-
son lime. They know that 80, 40 so
or 200 feet of additional drilling might
bring in a great gusher, but drilIers do
not violate precedent
Now we have newcomers starting a
well with heretofore INFESTED horizon
as the objective. Failure Of this well
to produce will desprOve nothing. 1t
is possible t1at the oil is accumulated on
the southeast side of the fault, instead
Of the northwest side. At the same time
it will not prove that EVERY location
drilled to the DevOnian will get oil, but
it is certain that no well will be con-
sidered a completion until it is drilled
down to any producing horizon which
the PendrOy well may open up.
Accordingly, it is of tremendous import
ance to every person who has a dollar tn-
vested in Montana oil. If we can believe
that Montana will again prove similar to
other producing oil states, we know
that the GREATEST production will
come from the lower horizons. These
of us who have royalties scattered over
northern Montana can look forward TO
the possibility OF having our properties
double and treble in value virtually over
night Many of us have long believed
that the OIL that comes from ABOVE
the lime is merely migratory oil that has
escaped from the main reservoir. 1t is
true that some 39,OOO,OOO barrels of oil
have been recovered from these horizons
above the lime but If the history OF
Mexia, Van, Spindletop, Smackover,
Oklahoma City and other great oil fields
means anything, then we can expect mat
the shallow production is but a SUG-
GESTION of the recoverable Oil that
is awaiting development in lower for
nations.
We met with a tremendous demand
for our new publication, announced last
week covering the subject of primary
geology 1t is our first ILLUSTRATED"
treatise and from the many compliments
already received, we feel it is proving
to be one of the most interesting publi-
cations we have issued. The writer
wishes to thank all of those who have
been so kind as to write in words of
cOmmendation We found that so many
of our members lacked the Foundation"
of geology that we went back ITO the
Beginning" showing with drawings how
the sedimeBtary rocks of the earth We're
laid down.; how structures are formed
and how oil accumulates in them. 1t
proves very timely, as IL reaches our

nOuncement of the deep test on high"
at PendrOy.
Copies will be furnished to those who
request them.

The start this week of operations ON the
first test on a structural "high' located
by geophysicaI methods marks the month
of June, 1888, as one of the most import
ant months in the oil history of Montana.
We believe this to be a fact because
of the results obtained by geOphysical
prospecting in other states. Scores of oil
fields have been brought in elsewhere
through geOphyscaI mapping, but the first
bona fide location so made is on the
PendrOy structure, northwest of POndera
oil field.
Secondly, this test is headed for the
DevOnian formation. That, in turn is
something of histOry-making Importance.
1t will be the first well started in northern
Monana with the DevOnian as it's OBJ
jective.
The idea that there is oil in the De-
yOnian antedates the discovery of COM
merciaI oil production in northern Mon
tana. 1t was on that theory that the dis
cOvery well was drilled north of Kelvin.
Ii was the late Gordon Campbell,
whose passing this week brought sorrow
to the entire Montana oil fraternity. who
stated at the very beginning that Devon
ian rocks are the source material of oil
in Montana. He wrote that into his
first report on Kevin-Sunburst field and
he always maintained that the principal
source of OIL will be found BELOW THE
BIG LIME. Yet because of the heavy
cost and extreme difficulty OF drilling
through the Madison lime with cable
tools north Mont operators have
been content to stop whenever they reach
the top OF the lime. They know that
the greatest wells in Kevtn-Sunb urst
have been found in horizons BELOW
equally well that this identical lime is
producing the flood of oil in Turner
Valley. They know that the Turner
Valley producing horizon is 500 feet
below the top of the Madison lime and
thus 500 feet below the expected hori-
ION of Kevin-Sunburst, POndera and
other oil fields.
Gordon Campbell based his belief on
his early geological work in Canada in
which he visited the famous tar sands,
Athabaska, in northern Canada. Here
he saw the upper formations erOded
away, exposing the DevOnian as a vast
deposit of Oil-bearing sands which can
be treated with mechanical equipment
for the recovery of commercial amounts
of crude oil He felt that the oil found
In upper formations was migratory oil
in northern Montana as well as i'm Cat
Creek. Mr. Campbell told the writer
not once but scores of times that the oil
in Cat Greek is coming from below
and that the greatest pools viii be un-
covered when wells are drilled through
the lime in Cat Creek field.
The greaest oil producing horizon in
the MidcOntinent is the Wilcox sand.
This sand is located below the DevOnian
i'm the OrdOvician. Yet this horizon Is
INFESTED in northern Montana. There
are chances for oil throughout the thick
ness of the Madison lime; there are
chances for oil in the SiIurian; there
are chances for. oil in the Devonian and
there are chances for oil in the Ord0-
vician. In the Rocky Mountains west OF

A BOON TO ROYALTY OWNERS

Kevin-Sunburst field the Ordovician
is exposed on the surface. We are in
formed that there is a 2OO-fOOt sand
stone in that formation in his exposure.
IL is known as the FIathead quartzite, In
the mountains, Whether this sandstone
Is present and whether it Is oil bearing
in the oil fields portion of the state
remains to be determined. There is no
such thing a 2OO-fOOt sand in any Of
the known present producing horizons.
The use of geOphysical instruments
to locate structure is no longer an exc
pertinent I'm other states and while there
are local problems In the application of
the science in Montana, the experts with
whom we have talked assure us that the
work of mapping structures does not vary
from that in other states. They are alb
sOIutely sure that geophysics do reflect
a high" when one is present. They are
confident of "high' in this location at
PendrOy, BECAUSE of its relative To-
cation to POndera and to many wells
which have had shOwings of OIL they
are confident that the structure is in a
petrOliferous area where the collection of
oil is deemed likely. What is most inn
pOrtant. they are said to have mapped
big fauIt-the most important structural
feature ever discovered in the Sweetgrass
Arch.
The presence of fauIting i'm the Arch
has never been positively established
The Arch came up a. result of noun
tain building action which subsided be-
fore the subterranean mountains came
any where near the surface of the
ground The upward movement buckled
a vast arch in northern Montana and
svrf~ II
the chief feature of which is an escarp-
ment OF Eagle sandstone. That the lime
stones cracked and broke during the
upheavaI is a known fact, whereas the
more plant shales bent into gentle folds.
Breaks in the lime have been found
many times in Kevin-Smburst field but
with no important displacement. They
are Cracks rather than fault
In PendrOy district, however, the pre-
sence of a fault has long been suspect
cd bv f.. Bvers Emrick who did exhaus-
tive trenching on the surface to reveal
the faulted condition. The Over-burden
Of the district serves to hide the struc-
turaI features on either side of the fault.
Surface covering was no intolerance to
geOphvsical Instruments which can look
into the ground and record amy variation
i'm the density of the formations, and
these readings clearly demonstrated the
presence of fault of large displacement.
Furthermore, structures were found on
either side of the fault: traps in which
oil may be collected.
We do not know why this particular
spot was chosen for the first DevOnian
est. but it is probable that the presence
of the fault may have been an important
factor, since it is definitely known that
faultin4 Is q major factor in the accumu-
Iation Of oil in lOw-dip areas such as the
Sweetgraas Arch. The first WELL we
understand, Is on the "high' side Of the
fault and the second well may be ON the
low side, depending somewhat on the
revelations of the drill in the initial well.

There is not the slightest ex-

CARE OF EYES

these agencies are taking children

EDDIE'S CASE
Eddie tried to make friends. He
tried to play ball, but couldnt
pitch. couldn't bat, couldn't eaten
and even ran wide of the bases.
He was bright enough, but ne
couldn't make the grade In scnoo!'
His teacher thought he was Wlltul.
The eye test showed he had re-
fractory error.
So they sent Eddie to the Henry
School, where he entered the Spe,
cial vision classes. There he reao
from type four times as large as
that he was forced to use in the
regular classes; he studied unoer

turns on the lights at the very

what happened?
MARKS BETTER
His marks were better than
those of the classmates he left be-
hind.
Edna B was cross.eyed. The
other kids laughed at her. She was
homely, they said. She was sent
to the Children'S hospital optnal-
mic clinic. And they gave her cor
rective glasses. But her eyes
wouldn't Straighten out.
The glasses made her look even
funnier So did the patch she
wore over her good eye, to make
the other one work its way back
to normal. Finally they sent her
to EpiScopal-and there the eye
surgeons shortened a muscle. You
ought to see Edna now! She never
was homely at all! She is one Of
the prettiest girls in her class.
PARENTS POOR
And that was a service the Dis
trict gave her, because Edna'S
parents are too poor to pay for
service. In the hospital next to
her was a little rich girl who had
the same operation. The same
surgeon performed both.

GRADUATION DAYS

Graduation days are here, when
our high schools, academies, coileges'
universities, are turning out by the
hundreds those who have completed
their prescribed courses and are re-
ceiving their certificates of gradua-
ton, along with congratulations Tor
the success they have finally achieved
in their years of striving Tor thls
high educational award.
Having received the coveted dlplo-
ma the great question for the grad
yates is what next?" This serious
problem is by no means a new one
and has confronted graduates for
ages past, yet never has proper an
swer. a wise decision been harder to
give than now. When competent
men and women by the thousand,
experienced in business and profes-
sional world, are idle and desperate
ly seeking employment of one sort
or another the young graduate races
a situation beyond description. Hope,
courage, ambition under such cir
cumstances must suffer many rebuffs
and those who with smiling faces
and glad hearts welcome graduation
day will feel more than once within
the next few months that for them
the door of opportunity is shut, even
the very entrance of the road to sue
cess is closed.
Unsolicited free advice Is so plen-
tiful, and frequently so annoying
that we hesitate to offer any to the
graduates. There is, however, just
one suggestion we venture to make.
Remember that all honest labor is
honorable and that those who have
the best chance to obtain employ
ment are those already employed.
Though you may be fully competent
to hold a fine position these are the
DAYS when one must be willing and
anxious to take any sort OF JOB he
can obtain; perhaps later the kind OF
work you prefer will be available.
Above all try to find some kind OF
honest work even though the pay be
meager. Idleness breeds discomfort,
kills ambition, leads to trouble-so
work somehow, some way.
Again congratulations and pest
wishes for bright successful careers.
