LACK OF PIPE
AGAIN DELAYS
MIDWAY TEST

Necessity of securing another string
of casing to shut off water in the TOP
of the lime is delaying the TarTant-
Wood deep test on Midway structure
east of Conrad, according to R. c.
Tarrant. The Wood well is to be drilled
to the Devonian, now standing at 2O85
feet with so much water coming into
the hole that Tarrant is unwilling to
test the first "break" in the lime with
out a proper shut-off
Meantime, the Tarrant-DeSteffenay
No. /, north Of the Wood well, appar-
emily entered a faulted zone near the
top of the Kootenai 1t did not find
the red beds at 1865 as expected, in
stead getting gyp and sand and a con-
glomeration of green and maroon
shales in a 6O-foot zone which caved
so badly that it was necessary to ce-
ment off the cavings. AS soon as the
cement sets drilling will continue at
1870 to test the Sunburst sand which
had commercial amounts Of oil in the
Wood well.

War Heads Ask
Miners to Stay
On Their Jobs

-Four war agency heads have joined
in the appeal to copper and other
critical metal miners to stay on their
jobs and produce more raw materials
for war.
Personal messages to the miners, a
large percentage Of whom work in
Rocky mountain mines, have been
signed by Donald M. Nelson, War Pro-
duction Board chairman; Maj. Gen.
Lewis B. Hershey, director, selective
service system; w. H. Davis, War
Labor Board chairman, and Paul v.
McNutt, War Manpower commission
chairman.
Facsimiles of the letters from the
four war chiefs are being sent to
unions and arrangements in the mines
mills, smelters and refiners, and to
mayors of mining towns in an effort
to stop the drain Of skilled manpower
away from production of these vital
raw materials.
The letters are directed to the work
ers In the mines, mills and smelters
Of copper, lead, zinc, manganese, mer-
curry, chromium, molybdenum, tung-
stem and vanadium.

Glen Ruby Is
Visitor From
South America

Glen Ruby, widely known geologists
renewed acquaintance in Montana
this week, having returned recently
from the southern tip Of Chile where
he is doing geological work for the
Chilean government. He left this
country about five years ago to accept
a retainer from the government Of
Argentina and with party Of Amert-
can biologists he made a survey which
resulted in opening up several new
oil fields.
Leaving the employ of Argentina,
he returned to this country only to
be called back to Chile where he has
completed reconnaissance work and is
now prepared to put geophysical par
ties in the field. He is now IN the
United States to get geophysical in
struments and a crew, taking time to
return to Montana and to Alberta
where he was responsible for the de-
velopment of the structural feature
now known as the Twin Rivers nose.
He was president of the Nordon
corporation which first mapped the
structures on the Alberta side of the
border and drilled the first well In
the Twin Rivers area. 1t is on the
south end Of this Twin Rivers fold
that Ed Reagan and associates have
opened up a new pool on
what Is known as Mission dome, in
the Blackfeet Indian reservation.

WPB Motor Program

War is he'll, but to lose this wal
would be worse than hell. The reasons
you may desire to continue operating
in the same way SIS you did in normal
times may be reasonable and. economic
but these are not normal times
We are in a fight to save civilization
and each Of us must do his share.
A WPB section makes recommends
tons for applying electric motors
which will save valuable critical ma
terials if everyone follows them faith
fully. Individually, your part might
be small, but when it is added to the
effort of millions of other Americans,
the total viii mean victory.
According to officials of this section,
electric motors today do not break
down because of overheating resulting
from overlooking, but rather because
of mechanical failure. Montana Kilo-
watt, in previous articles, concurred
with this statement. It is true that
overlooking a motor will shorten its
life, but today we must get the most
out of the materials we have for the
duration.
The highlghts of the wPB program
follow:
1. In applying motors, determine
with maximum possible accuracy the
horsepower required. This should be
preferably obtained by test or, in the
event that this is impossible, by &C.
curate calculation, or by careful COM
parison with known power require
ments Of similar apparatus.
2. When applying open-type, AC
continuous rated 4O-degree G motors
under usual operating conditions, Sc
lect the standard horsepower rating
which is at least 80 percent of the
horsepower determined in accordance
with paragraph l.
Example: The required horsepower
by test is 9.S hp; 80 percent of SO
equals IA; so select standard rs
horsepower motor.
3. Use open-type motors rather than
drip-proof or totally enclosed when
possible as less material goes into
manufacturing an open motor.
4. Use small high speed instead of
large low speed motors.
5. Use squirrel cage instead of slip
ring motors.
6. For new plants or extensions, 440
Volts AC should be used, whenever
practicable, although 1900 volts may
be used for motors 100 horsepower and
larger.
Above all, don't overlook your main
tenance program, as a motor saved
is worth five times more than the
20 percent saving in replacing a motor
on an 80 percent basis, for a bird in
the hand Is. now more than ever be-
fore, worth five in the bush.
