The Frantz well in the southeast corner of Montana, on what termed the Seven Mile structure, is 1,250 feet and making good time.

J. J. Finnegan, Seward, Alaska, lawyer and oil man, saidirecently that several new companies are shipping machinery north. Successful operations on a small scale | and oil seepages have caused govern- ment geologists to announce that they believe oil lies under approximately a million acres of Alaska lands. One lo- caleompany has been producing oil near Cordova, Alaska, for several years, All of Alaska’s ofl country lies in the southwestern section, stratching aldng the coast from Cnpe St. Elias on the west to the Aleutign Tslaids on the east, There are five big fields, Cold Bay, Katalla, Yakataga, Cock Inlet and the Alaska Peninsula. Alaska capital will do nearly all the work now being planned. According to present outlook the oil will find a ready | market in Alaska, as the northern ter- | ritory at present imports great quanti- ties for the fishing fleets, canneries, Che Casper Daily Cribune CLEAN-UP LAWS—IN REGARD TO STREETS AND SIDEWALKS RUBBISH IN THE STREETS—The law forbids throwing rubbish of any kind into the streets or upén sidewalks. | tomorrow, altho with the Denver Post | fruit skins, garbage, straw, shavings, proper receptacles, DRAWINGS 10 BE ‘MADE TONITE IN BOXING PRELIM Enough Locals to Fill All Classes, With Number of Outside Con- testants to ~ Arrive Later Drawings for the opening preliminar- ies in the Elks’ Amateur Boxing tour- nament for state titles will take place at the Casper Athletic club tonight with the first bouts scheduled to be pulled off tomorrow evening in the same rooms.
