down on the flanks of Mosby dome
and two miles southeast of the
Shrock- Fifer well, drilled into what
was classed as the Quadrant series,
in 1921. 1t got a water flow of 10000
barrels daily. in sands from 1925
to 1925. and topped the Ellis at 1885,
according to the log.
The Winnett Times reports
that this well had IS feet OF
Ellis sand, containing oil, top
ned at 1870 feet, and that IL was
impossible to test the showing
because of heavy water flows
found in upper sands.
A deep test that may have been
quite significant was drilled by the
Tbermopolis-Cat Creek Syndicate
on the Miller farm on the West
dome. in NV SW SW 11-15N-29E.
This is four and a half miles north
west of the Schrock- Fifer well. This
well. not on the highest part of the
dome, got oil in the first Cat Creek
sand at from 1885 to 1480, and oil in
the second Cat Creek sand, at from
1888 to 1910. The fact that the com
bined output of both sands was esti-
mated at only Is barrels daily may
have caused the operators to decide
to drill deeper. They did, and got
water in the third Cat Creek sand at
1855. This we'll logged the Ellis
sand at from POPS to 2085, and the
Quadrant sand at from 242S to 1886.
It is reported to have showed oil in
the Ellis sand.
In view of the obviously inconclu-
sive nature of these deep tests, 1t
is now believed completion of the
Schrock- Fifer well viii lead to fur

er horizons as the objective.
Additional attempts may now also
be made to open production in some
of the sharply-defined domes ada

10 satisfy the operators with what
was found in the upper sands. Wells
at the edges of the producing areas
usually followed a casing program
such that If they got water IN the
third Cat Greek sand, they were IN
no shape TO deepen.
There have been four wells, clas-
sified as deep tests,s drilled on the
Cat Creek anticline, but 1t now APP
pears they did little 10 determine
deep possibilities.
One of these, as an example, was
drilled by the California Company
in NE Sc NE 12-15N-28E. 1t was
completed In 1926 after drilling to
the Madison limestone, at 1924 feet.
II was drilled Sl4 miles northwest
of the Schrock-F'ifer well, and
about three miles west of the highly
productive West dome. 1t may or
may not have been too far from the
main producing areas of the field to
give an index to deep possibilities in
those areas
Most outstanding of all the
deep tests was a well that was
drilled on the same 100 acres as
the Schrock-Fifer well.
This was the we'll started by the
AFRO Oil e. Refining Co., and later
taken over by the California Com
panv. on the Charles farm, in NE
SW Sc NV 21-15N-30E. This well
drilled to sos feet where it bot
toned in the Cambrian. However,
inasmuch as it was drilled with
heavy-duty rotary tools, since the
SchrOck- Fifer we'll came in many
are wondering if heavy rotary mud
pressure may not have mudded off
a large producing oil well.
This we'll logged small show of
oil" at 1410 feet Many operators
who collected samples of this oil
from the stump had it analysed and
found it to be 491-gravity. This
showing was tested after the rotary
tools had drilled through it-and
the tests showed nothing.
This set of circumstances is also
making operators wonder what lies
beneath this dome at a depth of
$500 feet At this depth. from $500
to 1914, the rotary also logged a
nothing came of it. Whether this
was also an oil zone that was mud
ded off, or whether ii was a zone
without actual promise is now q
moot question.
Another we'll that went relatively
deep but was apparently off the
top of the structure, with produc
tive possibilities thus minimized
was that of the Frantz Corporation

 MRS. MITROVICH

The Home Arts Club met at the home of Mrs. Duke Mitrovich for the regular February meeting
 Plans were discussed for the purchase of a building from the REC for a field house. The work of the club during the sum- mer months centers around SUD- ervised playfield, and has been handicapped by the absence of shelter for the children on rainy days. With the acquisition of a field house, full summer pro- gram can be planned for the children.

USEFUL EDUCATION

tSeattle Post Intelligencer)
 New inquiries by the school department of New York City demonstrate the value of combining ex- perience with education in preparing young men and women for adult life
 New York City has a considerable number of vocational schools and has also developed to an ex- ceptional degree the work study plan, by which pu- pills attend classes part of their scholastic time and work in private enter prlses during equal per- 1ods, thus combining the oretical instruction with shop training.
 A recent report from the school department showed that nearly all work-study students are graduated into fields of employment for which they were educated, their permanent employment becoming a continuation of their student-exper- fence jobs.
 A similar report just is sued for the vocational school division, presents strikingly similar find ings.
 The vocational high school survey has pointed at the post-school records of graduates for five sem esters extending back from June. 1943.
 In the classes of June, 1941, there were 3,623 graduates of whom 2,5O5, or 66 per cent, were placed in jobs.
 Of that number, 2,365 were employed in fields for which they were train ed, 116 entered "related'' fields and only 34 took preparation.

A Fishing We Will Go
Or Will We?

With the regular fishing season
opening next Sunday in Lincoln
County, most of us will want, at
least to go fishing-and if it is a
good day for the sport, hundreds of
us will go.
May 20 is Red Letter Day in
the minds Of most Lincoln county
people, and it rightly should be, for
Lincoln county is justly famed for
its fine fishing. Some of us will
fish near our homes and others are
planning to go deep into the hills,
but regardless Of where we plan to
fish, all hope to catch "the limit"
and enjoy happy day with this
good sport.
In planning for Opening Day,
meals will hold a prominent place
and while right now of course, we
can't always furnish you just what
you may wish for either Sunday
dinner or picnic lunch along your
favorite stream or by that beauti-
full lake, yet Sno-White is doing
everything it can possibly do to
provide those good foods you will
wish next Sunday-and every other
day this spring and summer.
Our groceries and our service are
for your convenience. We hope you
will try them.
