The announcement scheduling
the oil and gas sale on the total
acreage of 48,46684 no doubt
stems from the feveriSh activity
of four seiSmOgraph crews that
ranged various areas of the Black
feet reservation last summer.
The reservation, lying adjacent
ly south of the US-Canadian Dor
der, has interested oil circles for
many years, due to the face that
the largest known gas reserves
in the world are situated only a
few miles north of the border in
the province of Alberta.
Since it is easy to assume oil
and gas will not cease to exist
just because there is an interna-
tional boundary line separating
Montana from the province of
Alberta, oil companies have spent
many millions of dollars acquir-
ing leasing acreage and drilling
wells on the reservation, meeting
with some degree of success only
with oil at the extreme southeast
section of the reservation.
Lately, the interests of the oil
fraternity have shifted nearer to
the mountain front, closely paral-
telling the same range of noun
tains that extend across the line,
besides which sit the largest
known gas reserve in Alberta.
Last month, L. P Anderson,
President of the Great Northern
Drilling Co., Inc. and w. Layton
Stanton, Rocky Mountain Divi-
sion Manager of Union Oil Co. of
California, announced that nego-
tiations had been mplet e d
whereby Great Northern Drilling
and associates will drill east of
East Glacier Park and southwest
of Browning in the area known
as the disturbed area"
The first well, according to
spokesman, will be drilled before
June 80, 1860, a few miles ives:
of Browning.
The agreement between the two
companies makes available to
Great Northern Drilling three
separate prospects. The first is
known as the Two Medicine-Morn-
ing Gun Prospect, the second the
Running Owl Prospect, and the
third the Duckhead Prospect, all
aggregating roughly $4,000 acres.
The results of the bidding will
be watched with great interest
by people in this area, especially
due to the possibility of Great
ing a furry of drilling activity
A copy of the advertisement
may be obtained, if interested
parties names are not already on
the mailing list, by either con-
tacting the Agency Realty office
or upon request to the Super
intendent, Blackfeet Agency.

Weed Control Tool
For Beet Growers

P. M. Rosenow, Chief Agricul-
turist for Holly Sugar at Hardin.
Montana, in a recent trade maya
zine article, told Of a new tool for
the introduction of chemicals into
soils.
In the article RoSenow stated,
"Many attempts have been made
with various farm implements to
properly place weed control chem
icalS into the soil. We have had
little or no success with pre-plant
chemicals, and it was generally
felt that the one thing wrong was
that we were not getting the
chemical deep enough. or well
enough dispersed in the soil"
Kenneth Bischoff, Holly's Ex-
tension Agriculturist, came UP
with a new idea employing a
ditcher shovel in conjunction with
the Sinner weeder. Rosenow x
planned that the shovel pushes
aside the soil to a depth of III to
2 inches, and the spray nozzle that
is placed directly behind the
shovel delivers the chemical even
ly over the cleared-away area. The
Sinner tines come along and re-
place the soil that has been re-
moved, completely covering the
chemical.
Rosenow stated that the new tool
works under all soil conditions,
clOddy or otherwise, and will place
the chemical to any depth desired.
After the chemical is buried, ma
tural movement of the soil mois-
ture distributes the chemical
throughout the area where con-
troll is desired. The sugar beet
agriculturiSt cautioned that Excess
Sive amounts of chemicals will
control weeds but may also cause
damage to beets. A reduced rate
of chemical, he stated confidently
will get the desired weed control
results without damage to beets.

If you are thinking about buy
ing a washing machine, here are
"a few points to consider.
First, the difference between the
lowest priced model and the high
est priced machine is not in the
ability to clean clothes or in the
quality of the motor, but in con-
~veniences, appearances, and flexi-
bility.
Also, a more versatile automatic
machine will require more Servic-
ing and adjustments. Statistics
show that the average family spent
about three hundred dollars last
year on repairs and servicing for
household equipment and the
family automobile. This figure
might easily increase as machines
become more complicated and
sensitive.
So if you are about to trade in
your old machine for a new
model, there r gradual improve
mentS but no basic changes i'm
each years models. With proper
care and handling, your machine
should last about an average of
nine years.
