Recent developments there during the past few months have opened up several territories that ap- pear to be coming oil fields. This is especially true of the lower of the Big Horn Basin around hermopolis. The Red Basin adjoin- ng the Warm Springs field has turn- ed out to be an oil producer and will be a valuable addition to the Warm Springs development. West ‘of Thermopolis the Golden Eagle dome is showing for a field of verage size and the recent strike of the Ohio Oil Co on Kirby Creek has started a development thefe that promises to eclipse anything in the district, two wells are now ready to produce and the Ohio also has a g6od ser with a flow of wet gas that carries a large quantity of gasoline.

The difficulty w by water coming into the hol test was made to discover the 6f this water and it was finally con cluded that it came in from the bot tom, and that it was due to the dril having perforated the oil sand and entered a water horizon. Officers of the company were on the point of pulling the casing, when Superintendent Craig objected and suggested that cement be placed at the bottom of the hole. Several bar- rels of cement were poured into th casing and the water was shut off en- tirely, the oil flowing to the extent of 276 barrels a day. This flow is increasing daily. The Ohio Oil company, the Kinney conipany, is now Trigg’ up to start immediately two more deep wells on the Kinney lease to be known as wells Nos. ¢ wells will be in the proven inside area and it is the intention to keep at least two standard rigs going on this lease until this prope is thoroly drilled up. There room for at least twenty more deep wells in this proven area of the Kinney lease Last fall the production thruout the Big Muddy field went off possi- bly 20 per cent, which was occasioned by the gas pressure lessening in all of their deep wells. The Ohio and thc Kinney ‘companies are now starting in to put four-inch tubing with ¢ packer in all of their deep wells whict undoubtedly will have the materially reasing the as it will ¢ h less sure to force ee thru four-inch tubing AAC t the oris- inal eight-inch. This policy will un- doubtedly be followed by other pro- ducing companies in the Big Muddy field. The Kinney company has recently brought in an additional well in the Grass Creek lease of about fifty bar. rels y production, for which they get a price of $1.80 per barrel. There are several other locations yet to be drilled on this Kinney (¢ Creek lease which will be in duri the com- ing year. drilling production gas — During the ent fire at the Mo- ak well on the Emigrant Gap, the electric generator was burned out wh n ane el oil tank was burned ie and the o ahe: nd again. nt SEGRE DEFINED BY ENGLISH JOURNALIST [By Associated Press] MANCHE “When we ak of Wwe do not mean, of. course, t report ers should attend the confer that, tho discussions are results should be pub that not at the but thruout them.” This pressed by ( itor of the Manchester Guardian, in a talk with the Associated Press re warding secrecy in the peace confer ence. ence, but private the lished and negotiation: iew Scott, ed —— — HOW ABOUT WOOL?

Wyoming offers a fertile field for the operations of the un- scrupulous promoter, according to Attorney General D. A. Preston, who urges legislation of the “blue sky” variety to curb the efforts of J. Rufus Wallingfords. In his biennial report to the government, Mr. Preston de- clares that, of the more than one thousand oil con¢erns orga- nized in Wyoming and Colorado with- in the ¥ three rs, more than 80 per cent have been of the Walling- riety. In support of his cor tention—in which, by the way, he seconded by Governor Houx in the ter’s biennial report as secretary f state—that the State needs a blue sky law, and needs it badly, the at- torney general makes the following tatement: “It is OXY-ACETYLENE WELDING SHOP Across From Shockley’s. 118 S.
