Commercial quantities of gas have been produced. A deep test well now being completed by the Ab- soraka Oil Development Company and the Florence Oil Gas Company in Montana a mile and a half west of the North Dakota line is being watched with unusual interest, Mr. Dove says. “This pioneer well now drilling at a depth of about 3700 feet has been watched with unusual interest, since it is going far to prove or disprove the presence or absence of oil and gas in the corners of three states,” says Mr. Dove. “So far encouraging quantities of gas has been found and it is with this gas the present report is concerned,” The possibility of gas to be used as fuel in providing power for driv ing Irrigation pumps is seen in this section by Mr. Dove. While there is not sufficient. data on which to base an exact statement of what might be accomplished, the assistant 51 geologist finds sufficient infor tion to cause him to recommend ste: for development of the region.

R. Green, Manager of Bank of North Dakota, Obtains U. S. Department Ruling After sevebal months, C. R. Green, manager of the Bank of North Da- kota, has obtained a ruling from enue D. T. Blair to the effect that furmers making farm loans through the Bank of North Dakota do not anve to attach to mortgages govern- ment revenue ‘stamps to real estate mortgages. The ruling was given to Rep. 0. B. Burtness. Mr. Blair, in his letter to Mr. Burt- ness, said: “It appears that under the constitution of the State of North j Dakota the state is’authorized to en- | gage in various classes of business and to issue bonds secured by first mortgages on real estate.
