TARRANT WELL
is PENETRATING
SUNBURST SAND

A troublesome flow of wat
err in a Kootenai sand was
this week finally shut off by
cementing a string of
5 3-10ths-inch casing in the
test well of r.. c. Tarrant on
a structural nose south of
the Marias river and south of
Cut Bank oil field, and an ear
ly completion is now expected.
The well had no surface
water and was easy drilling to
1878 where caving shales nee
essitated a string of 8-inch
casing. Thereafter it became
necessary to run a string of q
inch casing at 269O and there
after a second flow of water
was found, necessitating the
smaller string at 2755. 1t was
cemented with 20 sacks of ce-
ment by Halliburton.
Drilling now continues at
279O feet and the bit is now
believed to be in the Sunburst
sand.

PRIVATE FLYING
USES MUCH GAS

An item OF growing Importance in
the gasoline market is private fly
ing in the United States. Private
flying in 1889 covered $4,000, 900
miles, more than twice the 1854
239 miles flown by the scheduled
airlines.
The vastly-growing Importance OF
personal flying by Americans is re-
Vealed in other 1889 statistics:
1243O private aircraft compared
with 400 on the scheduled airlines;
3O,O67 certificated pilots in private
flying against 1877 employed by
the airlines. The private aircraft
figures include private-hire filters
as we'll as solo filters, but licenses
in the latter classification alone a.
mounted to 21,787 last year.
Fuel consumption figures for
1889 are not yet available, but, al
though private flying accounted for
twice as many miles, it is probable
that fuel consumption by the sche-
iuled airlines was about five times
as great. The much larger and more
powerful planes used by the air
lines are, of course, the reason for
The greater per-mile consumption.
Low fuel cost in the United States,
with other countries, has
been one Of the most important
reasons for the extremely rapid
development of private flying in this
country.

TWIN CITIES
IN need OF
LOCAL CRUDE

Refineries of the Twin Cities

availability of cheap crude from II

attention to Montana and Wyoming
for future supplies of crude, accord

Big We'll On
WEST SLOPE

Demonstrating again that the
worst may be the best in any
mans oil field. Katley & Kipe of
Cut Bank surprised Cut Bank oil
operators this week by bringing
in a big well in the midst of
mediocre production, on the west
side of Cut Bank creek.

pletion of the Getty dry hole. in

orally accepted as adequate evil
dence to condemn the west bank
of Cut Bank creek in this district.
The Katley well made 207 bar
rels in the first "a hours and is
likely to be a good 10O-barrel well
on the pump. 1t had no Sun.burst
sand and upper Cut Bank from
2905 to 1920 was dry, except for
a slight show at 2915. The lower
Cut Rank. from 1920 to 1888 was
fairly we'll saturated throughout but
at 1881 there was only 800 feet
of oil in the hole. In the next two
feet the bit found coarse, porous

tions, the only semblance of any
thing approaching normal activity
occurred on the uptake and the As
ISOLATED Press index of 60 selected

After two days of rising openings,
the first bell today found trader
in an experimental mood. Early
transactions showed mixed trends
which, however, quickly were re-
solved toward the upside by the
firmness of selected leaders.
England's defense against Ger

nopolize boardroom discussions, but
a growing undercurrent of domestic
political talk could be noted. oh.
