May NOT RENEW
POWER TO NAME
PRICE Of Sill YER

WASHINGTON President Roose-
welt may not ask congress for a
renewal of his power to fix the
price of domestically mined silver
when the authorization expires on
June 30
The price fixing authority was
vested in the president under the
1894 gold reserve act and was in
tended to provide an indirect sub
sidy to domestic producers in an
attempt to rehabilitate the an
dustry.
Mr.. Roosevelt is said to feel the
program has not achieved its pur-
pose and is supported by many
treasury officials who hold the
broader silver purchasing act is
adequate. This act directs the treas
ury to acquire foreign and domes-
tic silver ION reasonable terms" un-
til the stock reaches % percent of
gold stocks, or the price reaches
S1.29 an ounce.

FOURTH STRIKE
OF HIGH GRADE
NEAR MAIDEN

MAIDEN-Cy German, developing
the Bay Horse mine, with Odillo
Royce of Winnett, has struck a
large body of high grade ore and
is now mining for shipment in the
spring. This is the fourth strike of
high grade in this locality during
the last few months. Cy German has
fair tonnage of shipping ore pill
ed up already He is developing a
new ore body inspected last fall
by a A. Franchie, engineer for the
Western Mines Corp. which adjoins
the Bay Horse mine. Operations are
slow at both the mines because OF
poor roads at this time and snow
drifts are blocking roads part Of
the time. Frank Potter of Lewis
town, who struck some high grade
in his claims at the Point of Rock
mine. has erected a cabin and is
developing high grade. This prop
erty is adjoining the Western Mines
ground and Cy Germans Bay
Horse mine. Plans are being made
with the Fergus county commits
sioners to build and grade roads to
these mines.

LIQUID ROCK
IS ADDED TO
D0WELL LINE

Warren Hough, Montana licensee
for Dowell, Inc, has received notice
of a new Dowell service, to be in
augurated in the not distant flu
ture, to combat water in drilling
wells. The new process is with eli
quid rock, a new chemical used
to permanently block off water. gas
and oil formations when it is desir-
able to do so.
Successful treatment of wells in
various states, including Oklahoma,
Texas. Arkansas, Kansas and Michi-
gan has proved that the service is in
demand In some well the volume
of water blocked off was as much
as 2,400 barrels.
Purely Chemical Process
Dowell formation plug consists
of several chemical materials in IL
guild form. Its application into the
formation is made with specially de-
signed equipment and the treat
ments are conducted under the SUI
pervision of a trained engineer. At
ter standing in the formation for q
predetermined time, the fluid chang
es into a solid substance that seals
the pores of the strata and shuts
off the producing water section.
The physical change of these chem
icals from their original liquid
state to that of a gel is always UNI
der positive control and, as condi-
tons require, may be varied from
few minutes time to several
hours. After penetrating the forma-
ton, the material sets very
quickly and forms a solid that is
a permanent plug capable OF with
standing tremendous pressure. The
amount of chemical used in each
treatment must necessarily vary
with specific we'll conditions, large
ly based on the size of the pores
and the rock pressure present in
the formation. The average treat
ment ordinarily requires a uniform
penetration of approximately three
feet from the bore hole.
Application Is Variable
Formation plugging is not alone
confined to the control of water.
1t will also plug off gas and oil !
formations in most sand or lime |
producing formations. The oondi-
tons under which the chemicals
are prepared, their application 10
these different formations or
the setting of the chemical after
entering the well are not affected
by water, oil or gas.

of casing whenever it was neces-
sary to shut off water, oil or gas
