Meeting Inn HaGG1eSbuarg

The Women of the Sixth Congress
sional District Federation of Colored
Women's Clubs of Mississippi wish to
express to you our support in the
program for rehabilitating the mis-
guided Negro youth of the State. In
order that the fullest benefit may ac-
crue to these young people and to
the State as a whole, we respectfully
request that you give consideration to
the appointment of Negro as super
intendent of the home.
This request is based upon the as
sumptions that: /. Contact with mem
bers of their own race will inspire
the young people to higher achieve
ment. 2. A Negro superintendent is
more likely to understand the mental
inhibitions and drawbacks of Negro
children better t h n man whose
thinking and social and economic pat
terms are entirely foreign.
Respectfully yours,

KEY TO A FORTUNE

interval between the Cut Bank sand and
the Madison lime plus the 26 gravity oil
indicates one thing: FAULTING. Especially
is that true when this is tied in with the
Cassidy Phoenix Mutual well in the NWa
NWa Section 2S-35N-4W, which had unmis-
taxable signs of fauIting. The Cassidy wen,
in fact, missed the Kootenai section en-
tireIy. There was no Sunburst sand and no
Cut Bank sand. Those sands are present at
the Vial well to the west, and in the High
Gravity Production wells four miles east.
The Cassidy well had IS gravity oil 1t was
drilled into water and the hole was lost. Like
the Vial well, the Cassidy wen checked low
on the Madison lime
The U. S. C. S. noting the unusual fea-
ture Of the Madison lime, noted it on the
contour map. included the designation
"StructuralIy Lowest Madison Well" No eff
fort was made to explain it. "BilI" Cassidy
said he was sure 1t was due to fauIting. One
reason was that the water encountered was
FRESH water, instead of sulphur water as
is usual Furthermore, it was similar to the
water flowing from the Miller springs some
distance west. When Cassidy swabbed his
wen, the Miller springs dried up for the
first time in the memory of oId-timers. When
Cassidy plugged his well to abandon, the
Miller springs started flowing again. Cas-
sidy concluded that his well tapped a fault.
Few people thought there was anything Of
consequence in the Cassidy well but exper-
fenced oil men told us: 'Tf there is fault
Of any such proportions present in that area
it is important" We have long since learned
that the collection Of oil In Kevin field
occurs In cracks or assures I'm the Madison
lime. We know that the great OhiO-Baker
No. well has produced In 10 years so
times more oil than could possibly be con-
tanned in the formation between Il and sur
rounding wells. There Is no question but
that the Baker wen has been fed and is
being fed by oil FROM BELOW-coming up
through fissure in the lime.
We have not forgotten the great pools
that were developed along the sO-caIled
Kelvin fault, mapped by Howard g. Jameson,
pioneer biologists. None familiar with the oil
business win ever forget the results Of drill
ing along the great BALCONIES fault Of the
Tidcontinent-which gave Powell COrsicana,
Mexia and other great oil pools. Faulting,
combined with regional structure, is the most
important feature in the great oil fields of
the world. There are few great oil fields that
do not owe the accumulation of oil to fault
ing.
Accordingly, faulting is Of great import
ance. If fault can be established In Kelvin
area, then there Is good reason to believe
that many more wells such as the Ohio
the Fulton-Rice pool, are possible, once the

IDLE REFINERS
HAVE GAIN IN
APRIL STORAGE

down for spring repairs, the month Of
April showed Montana refinery runs
to stills the lowest in many months.
according to figures of the OIL Con-
servation Board of Montana, the COM
plete tabulation of which win appear In
the issue Of June s.
Production also dropped off during
April and storage gained to 8 high
Of 1,4516S9 barrels, against 1921, 58I
barrels IN March, gain Of 130.O58 bar
rels. Refinery operations dropped from
445,655 in March to 357 2T4 barrels in
April-a drop of 98,381 barrels. Ship
ments to Canada dropped from 7O.593
barrels in March to SIS ,459 in April and
shipments TO Washington and Idaho
dropped from 140,496 barrels to lO7.-
730 barrels. A total market for 521 $3.50
barrels was shown during April as
compared with 655, 104 barrels in March.
Kelvin production was virtually I'M
changed at 4,e07- barrels per day; Cut
Bank was down 1851 barrels for the
month, averaging 1901 barrels per
day during April Cat Greek, Pondera
and other fields remained about the
same.
While north Montana was exporting
l63, 189 barrels, southern Montana re-
finers imported 330,682 barrels-over
twice as much. Also, south Montana
refiners were working at capacity dur
ing the month, while the north Mon
tana refineries were idle, and the
southern refineries ran a total of 37O,-
TAT barrelS-more than those in the
north by nearly 1900 barrels.
The daily average production rate
for the state, 81 ,623 barrels, compares
with a recommended production Of
23,7O0 barrels fixed by the Office Of
Co-ordinator.

Look at the bottom tier of counties In
Township 35N, Range 4W, directly west from
the town Of Kelvin. The United States Geo
logical Survey shows very distinct "nose"
"a structural fold like an inverted trough
coming up onto the main Kevin-S unburst
dome. That inverted trough, If it is present,
would serve as trap for OIL Most import
ant pools in Kelvin field have been found
TO be on local folds of this kind. The latest
discovery on such fold was the high grav-
ity production on top Of the rimrOck north
west of Kelvin. IL viii be noted from the
U. s. G. s. map that the fold on the rimrOck
Is not nearly so distinct as that referred TO
in the bottom tier Of counties Of Twp. 35N-
4W.
There was completed last week in the
SWa SWa Section S1-35-4W in the south
west corner of the township, wen known
as Big West-viaI No. /. It is the largest gas
well in the area, producing from the Cut
Bank sand. This well checked high, struc-
turaIIy, on the top Of the Cut Bank and
the drilIers were enthusiastic in the belief
that they had found a local high in which
oil might certainly be expected at the Madi-
son lime.
Drilling continued and the drill passed
into the bIacR lime of the Jurassic, as ex-
pected. Then IL went back into Cut Bank
sand after a 25-fOOt break" Then the for
nation ceased to check with the logs of
other wells in the region and it ended up
with the Madison lime checking UNEXPECTEDLY

the top Of the Madison Iime-abOut a barrel

driIlers can properly locate their wells with
relation TO an established fault
The Viles well log indicates faulting. The
Phoenix Mutual well indicated fauIting.
Draw q line between them and we have
pretty good idea of a three-miIe area where
the fault is likely present. That is not all;
project that line northeastward and 1t passes
through the rimrock short distance west
Of the producers ON top of the rimrOck.
Examination of an exposure on the rimrOck,
IN the center of the, south line Of Section
12-85N-4W, reveals definite evidence Of
FAULTRG. That exposure has long been
known to biologists. 1t was mapped by Fred
X. Plat, Shelby engineer, years ago. With
nothing to tie 1t with, the exposure had
little meaning But now that there are TWO
wells drilled on the LOW side of this fault
it Is pretty evident that the HIGH side
of the fauIt-where the oil should be found
lis on the southeast side Of the line so
drawn.
The most ideal spot for collection Of oil
along this fault would be on local @high"

logs The contour map of the u S. G. S.
shows this particular nose" with great
clarity. 1t is the sharpest and best defined
structure Of its kind in the district.
To driIIers and investors we peint out
this condition. We have no acreage for sale.
II Is an open country except for some 1890
acres of leases held by Big West Oil Co. of
Kelvin.
1t may take one well and it may take q
dozen wells to find that spot but some
where along the high side of this fault win
be opened a big well and perhaps a series
of big wells We believe that the best chances
for a fortune would come to the man who
would put a geOphysicaI crew In this area
seismOgraph crew could quickly map this
fault with the fund Of information provided
by the logs Of wells drilled. They could de-
termine the throw Of the fault and doubt
less save thousands of dollars In drilling
costs by indicating on a map the spot or
spots where the accumulation Of oil might
be expected.

sense and the hard nose Of drill There
