Secretary to
Prevent Dumping
On u. 5. Markets

Rep. Wesley A. D'Ewart has
asked Secretary of Agriculture
Brannan to use authority he
now has which might prevent
dumping of foreign agricultural
commodities on American mar
ketS.
D'Ewart joined &c other farm
state congressman who demand
the secretary request a tariff
commission study OF the effect
of imports on 10 agriculture
commodities we now have IN
surplus supply.
Such a study is necessary in
order that the President may
take advantage of the escape
clauses in various reciprocal
trade agreements. Concessions
granted under these agreements
have permitted foreign nations
to flood American markets with
the same surplus commodities
the Agriculture department Is
buying to support prices
D'EWart said the commodities
presently threatened by imports
are potatoes, dried beans,
cheese, dried milk, corn, barley,
oats, shell eggs, dried eggs,
pork and pork products.
Canadian imports of potatoes
at prices less than the domestic
support price cost the Ameri-
can taxpayers many thousands
of dollars last fall, adding to
the potato surplus problem.

Mccarthy Oil Test
Is Reported
Past 5000 Feet

Glenn cCarthy's deep test
for oil located Is miles north
east of Hardin in the center of
the Northwest quarter of sec
ton %, township 1 north,
range IS east, is reported to be
drilling past 5000 feet, which
would be well into the Madison
lime. .
In this well the Dakota was
entered at 1876 feet, the Nor
rison at 5,233 feet and the Mad
ison at about $500 feet.
At the present depth the ro-
tary bit is working within 1000
feet of the objective, to test all
producing horizons down to
5000 feet.
The H. I. Grove No. 1 Sny-
der-Reed in Sc Sc NV 23-1S-
BE has been abandoned as an
oil test after reaching 1000
feet. The bit had penetrated
the Madison lime for 500 feet
before drilling was stopped.
Heavy flows of water were
encountered, one In the Ten
sleep at about $500 feet, and
the last one at the point where
drilling ceased. For this reason
the we'll cannot be listed as a
loss since r. E. Warren who
owns the land on which the
well is located purchased the
cased well and is making use
of the arteSian flow of water.
He has provided a reservoir
which will cover approximately
80 acres and is filling it by the
wells output of water for ir-
rigation purposes. He is using
the flow from the 3,3OO-foot
level and can increase the wa
ter supply considerably by per-
forating the pipe near the 1000
foot level.
The H. I. Grove we'll was
slated to be drilled deep in the
Madison lime, but due to the
heavy flow of water encounter
ed, the project was abandoned
before reaching the objective
of 5000 feet.
