The Promised Land

tana Exploration well on Dry Creek,
north of Conrad. We have a sample
of oil from that well. We saw the
oil come out of the hole. The other
Devonian test shown is the Hiland-
Vandale near Waller. The log of that
well gives convincing proof that
there is petroleum below the Madi-
son lime.
Another interesting well shown is
the Pat Trap well, near Conrad,
which had a showing of oil some
125 feet below the Madison lime
contact-possibly revealing hori-
zon corresponding to the Reagan
horizon.
Then there is the Big Eleven well
on Conrad Butte. Anyone who wants
to know the facts regarding the Gil
found in that well needs only TO
talk to Charles Wrighter of Kelvin
who drilled it for the Big Eleven
syndicate.
Then there are the two wells on
Midway, drilled by R. G. Tarrant,
which had more oil in the Sunburst
sand than most of the discovery
wells in present producing fields.
We have learned in these past %
years of oil prospecting that the
principal difference between a
showing of oil and new oil field
is DRILLING. An oil field is
place where a showing of live oil
has been followed up by DRILL
ING.
There is ready-proven oil field
for someone near Bynum. Anyone
who wants TO check up on that state
ment can get the facts from either
L. B. "Tip'' O'Neil or John O'Neil.
The well, drilled In 1926, is in NE
NEA SEA 34-27N-6W on the Jones
farm. Drilling started in the Colo
RADIO shale and ended in the Madi-
son lime. It had good showing of
oil (more oil than in the Pondera
discovery well) in the Madison lime
contact-259s TO 1904. 1t was s0.5
gravity crude, similar to Kelvin
crude. The fluid level was 500 feet
with no water. That was eight
years before the science of aeidiza-
ton so it was shot with nitro
glycerin-one shot of 40 quarts and
one of so quarts-whieh hurt rather
than helped. It actually hailed two
barrels per day. AS that was not
commercial, drilling continued to

FrorY Chosen
President Oil
Association
lContlnued from Paee u


him as chairman Of the board, TO give
him official standing in the continua-
ton Of the work he initiated during
this past year.
The association voted to discontinue
monthly meetings and directors will
meet in the future only upon demand
Of any director or officer who deems
a meeting necessary.
Directors elected are: J. Fl. Agen,
j. H. Agen Oil Co., Kelvin; E. B. Cool
idge, Handbook Oil Co., Kelvin producer;
A. E. Crumley, Shelby, Cut Bank and
Kelvin producer; Bob Engleking, Pfabe
& Engleking, Oilmont, Kelvin producers;
W. NJ. Fulton, Shelby; L. R. Hannah,
Hannah Porter Co, Shelby, Cut Bank
and Kelvin producers; J. E. Hupp, Gla-
cier Production Co., Cut Bank producer;
James W. johnson, Shelby, Cut Bank
producer; Richard A. Kullberg, Kull-
berg Oil Co., Cut Bank producer; K. D.
Pardee, Castle 6 Pardee, Cut Bank pro-
Queer; Cecil SederhOlm, A. B. Cobb &
Co., Cut Bank producer; Fl. A. True,
The Texas Co., Cut Bank and Kelvin
producer; C. N. Wrighter, Rimrock Pro-
ducing Co., Kelvin producer; G. S.
Frary, Cut Bank producer, and Joe
Oien, Cut Bank producer.
Four of the Is are strictly Kelvin
producers; two produce oil in both
fields; one produces in Cut Bank and
Pondera; all others are Cut Bank pro-
ducers. The Cut Bank predominance
brought only one rift, when it was
voted to hold meetings in Cut Bank,
when E. B. Coolidge remarked: 81 think
the Kelvin boys had better resign and
let Cut Bank take over the whole
show" None discussed the issue. 1t was
Lon Crumley of Shelby who suggested
that inasmuch as meetings have here
tOfore been held in Shelby that they
should be held in Cut Bank in the
future.
There was no other rift in the meet
ing, and a year of complete harmony
is foreseen with Frary at the helm.
Frary has been engaged in the Mon
tana oil industry almost from its in
eeption, is widely known and popular
in the industry.

INDEPENDENTS
AREN'T BUYING
TUBULAR GOODS

That independent oil men are getting
"gun shy following the beating they
have been taking from federal
agencies, is indicated by their failure
to order pipe and other equipment,
now that it is available. Supply men
say that only the majors are buying
casing although there is at the present
moment plenty Of casing available.
Steel has been made available for
fabrication of tubular goods for the
oil industry in recent weeks and for
the first time in a year, supply houses
are able to make prompt delivery. 1t is
stiI necessary, however, for operators
to wait until a carload is ordered as
supply companies are not yet allowed
to carry pipe in stock on their racks.
National Supply Co. is reported to
be making an effort to stock common
sizes Of easing, tubing and rods in its
Montana stores, for the benefit Of
smaller buyers.
The reticence of Independents to
apply for tubular goods has been
noted in other states as wen as in
Montana.

The writer has stood on the der
rick floor of practically every dis
covery oil well in Montana, and
has seen many more wells that looked
like discovery wells but which have
not been followed up with that
great requisite-more drilling
The discovery well in Cat Creek
was not commercial. Had it not been
for further drilling, Cat Creek would
not have yielded its $24, 100000 of
new wealth for Montana.
The discovery well at Kelvin never
produced oil in commercial guam
titles. The wells offsetting the dis
covery well were not commercial.
Had L. G. Stevenson not brought
in his Sunburst discovery well,
eight miles away, Kevin-Sunburst
field might have been delayed many
years.
The discovery well at Pondera
was not a commercial oil well. Had
W. NJ. Fulton not stayed with the
field, after practically all else had
walked out, Pondera would not be
an oil field.
The discovery well at Cut Bank
was not commercial oil well. The
second well drilled was a commercial
well but none excepting R. G. Tar
rant would believe it. Tarrant
drilled more wells and finally the
world realized an important dis
eovery.
So when someone asks us: "Where
can we find some more oilf" we
have no hesitation in answering. We
know a half dozen places, where
there is oil-with as much promise as
any field yet discovered. This week
we issued a publication ON "The
Promised Land" The district so
designated is the area Of the north
half of the U. S. @. s. map Of the
Conrad-Great Falls area-showing
Pondera oil field on the west, Banna-
tyne field on the south and Mid
way-Conrad Butte area in about the
center. This is the area where a
great leasing campaign is in prog
ress. We reveal the plan in this
publication, and we point out that
this is a most remarkable area where
more oil fields are as certain as
anything in the oil business. In the
area shown are two wells which had
oil in the Devonian. One is the Mon

1850 where sulphur water was en-
countered. The well was then aband-
oned, and no further drilling done.
We're driller to move in on
twin location, drill to 1904 and
acidize with 1000 gallons of hydro
ehloric acid, he would be almost GER
tain of commercial production. We
saw the cuttings on that well and
know it was the type of lime that
responds well to acid. Furthermore,
four wells drilled in the vicinity
Of the discovery well might easily
open up some big producers. Only the
drin can tell, but the prospects
are so much more certain than the
average wildcat that we cannot i'm
agine anyone passing it by.
We looked up the account of the
completioa of this well in the
Montana Oil Journal of January,
1925. 1t was apparent why O'Neil
Brothers did not follow up their
discovery. A cut of 90 cents per
barrel in the price Of crude was
made that week by Ohio Oil Co,
principal buyer, owing to over-pro-
duction and no market in sight.
Some 100000 barrels belonging to
producers was caught IN storage
when the price cut came. That dis
eouraged validating for more oil.
Had acidization been known, O'Neil
Brothers might have brought in the
Bynum oil field at that time.
The geology of the Bynum well
was by Irvine Stewart-whose work
is considered among the best. Add
to good geology the showing of
