Meanwhile, Max is leading the good
life, with a business to interest but
not burden him, his own soil of Pines
bridge Farm under his feet, time to
entertain his friends, to identify him
self with number of gourmet socie-
ties, specialize in an herb garden. and
indulge in his hobby for cooking.
Like many men there's nothing
Max likes better than to cook and eat
his own steaks. Il salt the steak, grind
pepper over it, and then scrape onion
juice over it. l do this while it's lying
on the platter it's to be served on"
he says. THE reason? Part of the
onion juice remains on the platter
and when you plop the finished steak
down onto that, bit of the juice runs
out and mingles with the onion juice,
and the result is very wonderful.
Another recipe by which Max
swears is his particular version of
bouillabaisse. We have tried out Max's
recipe and it is indeed very good one.

Is doing a good job in keeping its
house in order, the importers of
South American crude. with a nod
from the State department. are
threatening the industry by allow
ing excessive imports, which have
climbed to 295.00 barrels per day,
reports Russell B. Brown OF the

Of America.
The increase in imports comes at
time when state regulatory boards
are urging reduction OF production
in their respective states in order
to save the national conservation
program Brown further points
out that the Venezuelan trade agree

months and in the first four months
there was no increase in exports
of American goods to Venezuela as
compared with the previous four
months. Imports from Venezuela,
on the other hand, increased %

GOOD GASSER
NEAR OIL POOL
SHOWS 10 OIL

The sharp cleavage between the
gas area and the oil area of Cut
Bank oil field was demonstrated
this week by the completion of a
1890, OOO-foot gasser a half mile
east of producing oil wells Of the
Cut Bank town group, directly east
of Cut Bank.
The oil wells in the main produc-
ing area down the flank Of the
structure have little or no gas
while gas wells to the east have no
oil in the identical horizon. Be
tween them is a narrow streak
where the oil and gas apparently
meet and in this area, flowing wells
frequently are found.

the new gasser, located beyond the
oil wells, to the east, showed no
oil. 1t had no gas in the Sun
burst sand from 1880 to 2752 and
the second Sunburst from 2760 to
2767. The upper Cut Bank, 2774
to 2794, started showing gas at
1882 and the main pay came in
the lower Cut Bank from 2790 to
2S06. The well was drilled two
feet into the Ellis shale, from
2806 to 280S feet.

The oil is coming from the Dakota
sand at $3.50 feet, checking 3S5
feet higher than the No. / well
which found oil in this same hori-
zon at 1913 feet. A fault between
the two wells is known to exist.
While the we'll is shut down at
present, Tarrant is considering
changing over to rotary tools to
test the eight principal producing
horizons below the Dakota. These
include the Morrison sands, sun
