with a crew OF about 80 men,
actual construction work on the re-

work is under supervision of Al

Sand. gravel and cement are be-
ing hauled preparatory to start

Of materials is expected for the

will have a capacity OF about 5000
barrels per day OF which II is un-

the not distant future, according to
word from the north Montana sugar
refinery town.
The plant was moved to Chinook
from Kalispell. 1t is a Swimming
plant and will have capacity of
around 200 to $50 barrels per day.
Location is a mile east of Chinook
on the main highway, a short dis
lance east of the Utah Idaho sugar
factory.
Mark Vrooman of Shelby, former
ly employed in the Deloriane refin-
cry at Oilmont, Is construction sup
erintendent, and he has had crew
of about 10 men.
Company officials state that prac-
tically all of the projected out
put of the plant has been contracted
to dealers and distributors. The
plant will use only Montana crude
from the Kelvin Sunburst field, and
will turn out gasoline, distiIlate,
diesel fuel, stove oil and fuel oil.
Officers of the company are:

California averaged $1,000 barrels
per day or AZ per cent in excess of
the Bureau OF Mines estimate. Had
the states whose production exceed
ed the Bureau OF Mines estimates OF
demand kept their production down
to these estimates the daily aver
age production for the entire United
States would have been 10000
barrels less per day than the Bu-
reau of Mines estimate demand in
stead OF $4,000 barrels less per day.
During the year 1898 Texas pro-
duction averaged $1,000 barrels per
day under the Bureau OF Mines es-
innate and Oklahoma production
averaged $4,000 barrels per day
under the Bureau of Mines estimate
and as a result Of this the stocks Of
crude petroleum originating in Tex
as and Oklahoma were reduced dur
ing the year 1887 in the amount of
4,562,0O0 barrels, which was g.
831 900 barrels more than the re-
duction in stocks during the year
1888 for the entire United States.

Increased purchases Of Kevin-Sunburst crude
were announced this week by International Re
filming company through j. c, Edwards, manager.
to leading producers.
Kelvin field operators selling to the Interna-
tional have been selling about one-third of their
production. The new schedule will allow runs
of approximately AZ per cent of potential
steady decline in Kelvin production has re-
suited from lack of drilling and acidization and
many leases, selling less oil than the cost of OPP
Grafton, have been allowed to decline to a point
where they were scarcely able to make their al
lowable. The increased runs viii make in some
the difference between profit and loss
A much healthier market situation is in pros
pect in Kelvin field, not only from increased runs
by international but from the fact that Cut Bank
crude is pretty well contracted so that local top
ping plants will be compelled to go back to
