~VO new commercial oil field has
been brought into production in
A Montana since discovery of Cut
Bank oil and gas field, in January, 1881.
For nine years past the growing refin
ing industry has been using more and
more crude each year. lowering the
amount of recoverable oil in the present
producing pools aid we sometimes won
der what Montana refiners are going to
do for crude in the future, because
everyone knows that present producing
fields will be exhausted SOME day.
There can be no question but that
Montana MUST develop some new re-
serves to insure the future Of the refip-
ing industry which now has crude oil
operating capacity of S7,740 barrels per
day. That is twice the maximum present
production of Montana oil fields There
are 81 refineries in the state OF which
81 are operating, with a capacity of
2S,514 barrels per day. These plants
operated at virtual capacity during the
month of May, and were they to continue
to operate at capacity there is no doubt
but that the present producing fields
would soon begin to show steady decline.
Montana bias been producing oil in
commercial quantities only since 1920
10 years. It's present fields are past
LueW peak.
Where is the oil for the future?
Or, will the industry fold up" after
present wells are exhausted?
"a ECENTLY we saw a map showing
four stages of development of the
- Los Angeles Basin. The Los
Angeles Basin is not a measuring stick
for Montana, but it is an interesting
fact that the state of California had
been producing oil for "a years before
the first barrel of commercial oil was
produced in Montana Like Montana,
California had small beginning;
shallow wells to start with mar
ket. low prices. These maps showed
that three years before Cat Creek oil
field was developed the Los Angeles
Basin had nine oil fields
Then came the demand for oil caused
by the war and the prospectors brought
in NINE more oil fields In the next six
years the oil companies had apparently
figured out the trends" for a new line
of producers appears in the 1880 map on
which are recorded TWENTY THREE
oil fields. The 1889 map shows
oil fields in the Los
Angeles Basin.
The people who prepared this map are
now interested in the AL
Derta oil basin-the area along the east
face of the Rocky Mountains. They see

must not ask questions, or try to
find out. I prefer that you know
nothing"
She shrugged in the way she
knew always fascinated him.
LAS you say, I suppose. But I'd
rather like to be in on the lark it
set-looks like being a thrill to
me-"
Otto smiled, quite genially for
him.
THAT cannot be. Maybe it would
be a little too much Of a thrill for
you, my dear. Still, you are .
smart girl-as I have heard SOM
of you English say. there are not
any flies upon you"
She exhibited sudden anger.
Here, don't put that over on
me-" she cried sharply. I'm not
English. I'm Irish, and ! hate the
English like hell"
It was a magnificent effort.
Trent and Tunesi looked startled;
Otto pleased.
"Pray, accept my apologies" ne
said, and then, with a smile: But
it is as we'll you do not like the
English overmuch. We shall not be
very popular with them, after our
little COUP"
I'D do anything to hurt the
English," Coral said, sullenly.
Inwardly she was triumphant
knowing that she had scored a con.
siderable point in establishing con-
fidence.
Later Trent and Otto discussed
the question of how to extract the
required information, as soon as
possible, from Tommy Hazeldeane.
In the end it was decided that
Guns plan should be tried out
first: if that failed, Coral was 10

do. And if she did not succeed,
then Otto was to apply his torture,
at the very idea of which his eyes
glinted, and his mouth took an
ugly twist. Trent eyed him with
|distaste. Plainly the man was a
sadist-and Trent, though a rogue
was a comparatively clean one. He
decided that he had no great par

definitely too good for him. :

Then maybe I will til k it
over" observed Otto-but he didn't
seem in love with the idea.
1t did not seem that Coral was
disposed to let time hang heavily
on her hands that day. She dis
played a tireless and entirely intel
iligent interest in all that went on
at the Factory. At the same time
she gave no impression Of a desire
or inclination to pry into things
from any sort of Interior motive,
so that even the suspicious of Trent
were in no way aroused. She was
inimitably clever over it, and she
found out quite a lot. Nor did she
make any particular secret of what
she found out-she was quite open
about it.
For instance, at lunch she re-
marked: '
II say, Otto, that's a pretty
comprehensive sort of arsenal
you've got tucked away in the cor
ner, isn't it?"
Both Trent and Otto looked at
her quickly, and frowned. Then
Otto said:
How do you know about this
arsenal, then, Coral?"
She laughed as gaily as a child.
Good heavens, don't k Sc
angry about it, Otto. Haven't done
any harm, have 1? You didn't tell
me I wasn't to have a look around,
did you, now"
Otto did not seem entirely at his
ease. He sat very stiffly, with food
impaled on his fork which he die
not attempt to lift to his mouth.

Upon the return of the youngster
in the publishers family from a
month spent in military camp at
Spokane, we are more than ever
convinced that such training is
beneficial. We are stronger than
ever in our belief that each boy
should be given year of military
training as soon as he has gradu-
ated from high school. The exper-
fence, especially in these days when
the kids graduate SO early in life, is
of great value to them, whether or
not they wish to continue their
studies in college. Besides that the
discipline, regular hours and scien-
tific physical development would no
doubt be of benefit throughout their
lives. The one strict provision with
such a program would, OF course, be
that not a single youth was to be
called for active duty during the
year of training. Such a program
would eventually put this country
on "a basis where military service
would not he as difficult as it is
now.
