But the oil now in ithe well keeps them from finding out what the production capacity of the test well is and they would very much like to know. The trouble is that the oil in the well has handicapped the work of 97 “swabbing out” the hole and it is un- + |certain now when this part of the job 16 | will be finished—if ever.

When they were ready to take :0) care of the oil they began to swab ‘on ut the hole. 0| This is done by affixing a heavy 00 leather “packer” with a valve in it -00 to a 75-foot length of steel pipe. This ‘o9 is let down into the hole and when 0 |the pipe is full,it is withdrawn, the Ny /oil and mud coming with it. The ep- ‘oo |paratus then is again returned to the ‘hole and more mud and oil drawn} off. This operation is supposed to go ¢, |M until the well is cleaned out. ‘o¢| The trouble in this case is caused 0 }by the extreme depth of the well—it is nearly 7,000 feet deep—and the fact that when the hole is cleaned out to jabout 4.500 feet the oil comes in faster than it can be taken out. Fissures Clogged Meanwhile the fissures of the oil- 9 /bearing formation are clogged with S|the mud and it is difficult to ascer- ble of maintaining. ot Despite the difficulties encoun- ‘oo |tered, however, it is the belief in this region that the well is a “sweet” one and estimates of its value range both _|upward and downward from half a; million dollars.

HANLEY ANALYZES CANTIGNY IMPORT Americans’ First Victory Over Germans Restored Confi- dence of Allies Declaring the Battle of Cantigny was one of the most important single offensives during the World War, Maj. James M. Hanley of Mandan Tuesday noon told members of the Bismarck Kiwanis club many lessons can be drawn from this single incident, the 18th anniversary of which falls this week. The fact that the Battle of Cantigny restored the confidence of the Allied armies, when hope was all but lost, made it of critical importance, Major Hanley said. It also was the first battle in which the American army had operated as a unit and alone, and gave the Allied leaders increased con- fidence in the ability of the untrained Americans. From this incident Major Hanley drew a pointed lesson in patriotism, declaring that in many instances the spirit to win is all-important. The speaker declared that he doubted that Germany would have drawn the Americans into the war had they known of the tremendous patriotic spirit which was to burst forth in the United States. For this reason, Major Hanley said, he believes that adequate prepared- ness against war is the best move to- ward peace available. Major Hanley was introduced by P. G. Harrington, program chaicman. Musical features on the program were presented by the junior high school male quartet under the direc- tion of Miss Ruby Wilmot. The group sang three numbers. In the quartet were Tom Skodje, Jack Evarts, Junn |Gunness and Charles Johnson, Jim | Shunk was accompanist. Group singing was led by Ralph W. Soule, ‘with Clarion &. Larson at the piano. J, R, BERQUIST, 71, WASHBURN, I$ DEAD Funeral Services for McLean County Pioneer Set for Thursday John Robert Berquist, 71, pioneer resident of McLean county and form- erly of Bismarck, died at 9:45 p. m., Monday at the farm home he home- steaded 11 miles north of Washburn.

D. Industry Twenty-two students from the State School of Science at Wahpeton, bent on finding out more about North Da- kota products and industries, were guests of the North Dakota Power and Light company in Bismarck Tuesday. ; During their stay they also visited the state capitol. In former years, spring tours have been made to Minneapolis. The group is composed entirely of two-year ‘electrical trades and engi- neering students who will complete their work at the school this spring. They were under the supervision of Karl Larsson, instructor of the sec- ond _year electrical course, and Ben H. Barnard of the same department. The specific purpose of the trip was to enable the students to become bet- ter acquainted with the various elec- trical appliances and installations used in large production work throughout the state of North Dakota. At the capitol they were particu- larly interested in the elevator equip- ment, which was explained to them by William Schaffel. Previous to their arrival here, the group visited the Lehigh Briquetting company of Dickinson, the Knife River Coal and the Northwest Public Service companies of Beulah and the power companies of Washburn and Mandan. On their homeward journey they will inspect power plants at Jamestown and Valley City. Monday the group was entertained at dinner by Melvin C. Blackstur manager of the local North Dakote Power and Light company branch, at the Knife River plant at Beulah. The personnel of the ‘ty includes: Leister Graffis, Walcott; Albert Bartsch, Esmond; Franklin Hagert, Emerado; Pete Ziegler, Anamoose; Jess Gourley, Hamlet; Jess Tomey, Tallant, Okla.; Ervin Quade, Sauk Centre, Minn.; Earl Wilbrecht, Camp- bell, Minn.; Ernest Gimpel, Duluth, Minn.; Leslie Carlson, Big Falls, Minn.; 5.
