drill taps the sand the water pressure
makes flowing oil wells, proportionate to
the (a) pressure exerted, OBJ the ny
drostatic level of the region and (c) the
porosity of the sandstone through which
the water and oil are travelling.
If we can visualize the situation as
given for the strata marked hard sand
stone we can see how the Cut Bank
field exists today That sand would rep
resent the Cut Bank sand. 1t is not pres
ent on the high" of the Arch for the
reason that it is replaced by solid silt
or shales. The presence of this sand was
discovered accidentally, of course. The
rules of geology could not have told
of it's presence, or if its presence were
suspected, none would have known ex-
actly where to look for it.
Now we call attention to the fact
his sandstone was once a continuous lay
er and therefore it extends all the way
around the old island shore. The artist
tries to convey this idea and it will be
noticed that the same hard sandstone
LAYER can be recognized on the right
hand or east side Now this same Cut
Bank sand is known to be present on
the east side of the Arch, in the Sweet
grass Hills. where it was known as "Bas-
koo" sand-meaning basal Kootenai"
So it follows that it is present on the
north as we'll In fact the Identical
sand was found on the north slope and
there was called the Cosmos sand. SO
now we know that the old beach which
is present beneath the town of Cut Bank
swings around the north end OF the old
island AND 1T CONTAINS. OIL in at
least three points
If we let the "hard sandstone" rep
resent the Cut Bank sand then the one
above it would be the Sunburst sand
(Vanalta sand at the Border oil field
and the light thin streak would be the
Moulton sand The Sunburst sand had
some erosion on the top of the Arch,
but not so completely as the Cut Bank
sand. 1t was covered over by another
layer of silt and mud which formed in
to hard verigated shales Some of these
shales came from highly mineralized
mountains because they oxidized and be-
came bright red forming the famous
red beds of the Kootenai.
Above these red beds came the floor
of another shallow sea on which was laid
down the Moulton sand which was per-
haps 90 to so feet thick. None knows
exactly how thick, as there has not been
enough drilling to ascertain. But again
the hump of the old island was expos
ed to the action of wind and sea (and
apparently this has been a pretty windy
country throughout the ages) and the
Moulton sand was eroded off, as before,
only erosion was carried farther down
the slope of the island than in the case
of the Cut Bank sand several million
years before.
Accordingly the Moulton sand is never
found on the top of the Arch and it is
seldom found in the Cut Bank oil and
gas field Where it is found, it is like
ly to be a remnant of sand that was
not eroded away. 1t may be a COM
pletely isolated remnant or it may be
Joined to the main sand body by thin
streaks or channels. However, there is
a place where the main sand is found.
And from the experience of drilling, it
is known that where the edge of the

ginning of the Cretaceous period At
that time this portion of the hemisphere
was covered by a tropical inland sea
swarming with prehistoric sea monsters.
Amid this sea was an old island-an
upheaval that we now know as the
Sweetgrass Arch
Through the ages this island has been
repeatedly inundated and since the be-
ginning of Cretaceous times it has been
covered over with perhaps 1000 feet or
sand and shale in the alternate periods
Of marine and land building Since
water runs down hill, washing away sort
materials the top of this island has been
repeatedly eroded away Accordingly
some of the sands that are found on the
FLANKS of the Arch are missing on the
TOP of the Arch, as in the instance cited:
the Moulton and Cut Bank sands.
Just how these sandstones were worn

fled by the present situation we re-
produce herewith, from our latest bulle-
tin. photographs of the Eagle SANDSTONE
which forms the rim of the sweet

the ton of the Arch for the same reason
that the Cut Bank and the Moulon
sands are absent from the Arch. This
sand has been eroded away until It IS
found nowhere on the main Arch

part of the Colorado shales have been
likewise washed away by the action OF
water and wind, giving very shallow
drilling depths to the oil bearing horl-
IONS of the main field.
The Cut Bank field is not on an
overturn of the formation, dome or an
ticline Instead, the oil in the Cut BANK
field is trapped in the sands which nave
been eroded away just as has the Eagle
sandstone, and subsequently sealed oy

The shales, being non-porous. offer resls-
lance to the travel of oil, gas or water
so form a trap equal to dome

pose that the valley shown were to be
filled with mud and silt from the wash

In subsequent ages, oil from hydrocar-

main sand is found, it is heavily impreg-
mated with gas at the top and, below
that, high gravity crude oil.
The largest gas wells in the Cut Bank
gas field are Moulton sand producers.
(See names and location of wells in
"Rainbows End".) The largest oil wells
in the Cut Bank oil field are Moulton
sand producers Yet the Moulton sand
is scarcely known except to experts con-
nected with the major companies, whose
information is not available to smaller
operators 1t follows that more will be
known about the Moulton sand in the
not distant future
1t would seem quite simple to step out
and buy royalties in the Moulton sand
area, with a considerable degree of GER
tainty. But it is not simple. The Jacobson
discovery well in the Darling pool had
no Moulton sand unless it was at 1859
feet where a show of gas and oil were
reported. (See Logo. Yet the Lungren No
l well little over a half mile south and
east had flowing oil in the MoultOn sand
when it was penetrated only IA or Is
feet.
Why this irregularity?
To answer this we issued the addenda
to "Rainbow's End" Any who looks at
the shape Of the Eagle sandstone rim as
= EXISTS today can see what happened
like a snake in agony as seen on a small
scale map shown in our "addenda", this
being traced from the U. S. G. S. map
of the Arch We know from this that the
Moulton sand eroded away irregularly.
The shape will not be anything like the
shape of the Eagle sandstone as we can
see it today, but its irregularity will
doubtless be similar In the illustration
herewith it is apparent how the sand
swings back and forth-seldom along a
straight line.
DriIIers can look at this Eagle sand
today and grin at the perplexity of drill.
Iers of a hundred million years hence
who will drill one location and get
thick Eagle sandstone and perhaps a
gusher and the next location east or
west or both may miss the sand entire
ly.
It is a tremendously interesting thing
and it is absolutely essential for the OPP
orator or royalty investor to sit down
and visualize this entire situation for
himself Once he grasps the whole pic
ture ne will thereafter begin drawing
his own conclusions which the drilling of
subsequent wells will affirm or deny. The
man who figures it out will make a
fortune, be he driller or royalty investor
Some non-thinkers may get rich in North
Cut Bank but we believe that greatest
fortunes will be made by those who put
their minds as well as their money into
their investments.
We wish to hear from any of our
members or others who read this article
and wish to discuss it further. We are
never sure whether we make ourselves
clear. This is written chiefly to supple
ment the discussion in "Rainbow's End"
and our more recent publication which
went out last week Any who has not
received both publications should write
for them Immediately. We have few
copies of "Rainbow's End" remaining
and they will be sent out in order of re-
ceipt of request so long as the supply
lasts.

mendous Importance is at
hand.
This subject was discussed
in our publication, "Rainbow's
End and because of the wide
spread discussion we issued an
addenda during the past week
in which we further discussed
the problem of locating this
sand which everyone knows
is not a continuous sand such
as the Sunburst sand which
lays with fair uniformity over
all of North Central Montana.
1t is more like the Cut Bank
sand which is likewise absent
from the top of the Sweet
grass Arch.
To have the Moulton sand
mean anything to the investor
it is necessary to visualize
this Sweetgrass Arch as it ap-
peared twenty-five million
years or more ago, at the be-
