WINNETT, Mont.; Feb. 8.—An increase is noticeable in the Cat Creek field daring Oil compa: e West Dome the last week. The West Dome operated in section 9, township 15 north, field of the Mosby structure heads the list in this activity.. They are moving on to their ground which consists of 820 acres, three No. one No, 30 Star rig to their three-acre holding on the Ten Spof Oil company’s holdings in Section 15. About ninety days ago the Wést. Dome company from the Ten Spot Oi com- pany a water well with three acres surface rights for a consideration of $15,000 cash. The well was bottorn- ed in the second sandstone at a depth of 1645 feet. The West Dome company Grilled it to 1704 feet with the expec- tation of finding a heavier flow of water, {n the third sandstone, the water being necessary for the contin- uation of their drilling program. At 1104 feet or the third sandstone, a black of] of 38.4 Baume gravity was found. The discovery was important, but the of} showing at that time was not commercial. However, they are now preparing to case off the watcr and drill the well deeper into the third sandstone, with the expectation of developing a commercial quantity of oll. An analysis of this oil shows that it tains 44 per cent motor gaso- line, 88 per cent kerosene, 18 per cent cent residuum. Operators in this dis- trict consider this the important dis- covery and development of the‘season. ‘The West Dome people are pushing this work all possible. In Section 10 of the West Dome field in the so-called Miller tract, the Montana-Superior Oil compay brought 4m @ producer on the 4th of this month at a depth of 1386 feet. Tho well has not been guaged, but is flowing over the top and the company is well pleas- ed with their initial well, On this same tract, which is a government permit, the Lucky Strike, the Unit Petroleum, and the Hover-Schwart%, Beene sed fre drilling. The 160-acre subdivided into 26 2-3-acres exih, making six drilling sites on each tract. The Montana-Superior ts the first to drill in a well. The cperation ‘was a contract by the Green Drilling company of Casper. ‘The new operations under way by the Frants Corporation consist of stand ard rigs erected and ready to be spud- ded in in the center of the northwest quarter of the nertheast quarter of Section 14 in the West Dome ficld~ This is their well No. 6. On the &. Harland tract in the northwest corner of the southwest quarter of the norta- west quarter of Section 10 in the West Dome area, the Frantz Corporation be also’ installing a stancprd ric. ‘his is an offset well to the initint producer of the West Dome [il ‘Co. in Section 9. In Section 21 ‘on the this tract is drilling to’ the second sands. This well developed the fact that the discovery well which is 880 feet south is fifteen feet on the struc- ture. The first sandstones were en- tered at 780 feet and the showing of ofl was so heavy that it was expected ®@ producer would be obtained in this sandstone, but water was developed immediately after touching the sands. It might be of interest to those who are not conversant with the geology of the Cat Creek field to know that the first sandstone In Section 21 whicn is locally called the Dakota and from which production has not been secur- ed is the producing sand in the West Dome area of the same field, and en'y four miles distant, The West Doine pool also is one-hundred feet lower structurally than the high spots on the Charles tract. Another important operation under way by the Frantz Corporation is the placing of a standard rig over the old hole drilled by this company on a Northern Pacific lease in the center of Section 27 on the Musselshell River, Township 15 North, Range E. It 1s known as Frantz well No. 4 and drill- ed in August, 1920. The hole was then drilled through the first and second sandstones to a depth of 1230 feet. It developed strong showings of oil at both sand horizons, but in commercial quantities. It is patent now that with the placing of a new standard rig over this old hole that the Frantz peo- ple will test out the third sands which ‘were found to contain oil in the Ten Spot well and possibly drill as deep as the Upper Carboniferous or Miesis- sipian. The Mid-Northern Oil company hus brought in two new ‘wells recently both in the northwest quarter of the northwest quarter of Section 13 in the ‘West Dome field. They are of 600 and 400 barrels output daily, and are swabbing their initial wells in. this I.

Vanderbilt has sold her Fifth avenue home and intends to move to faded, little, old Sutton place along the banks of the Bast river, has caused a grent deal of consternation in New York. New Yorkers, on the whol clined to sympathize with the move. Those who take great civic pride in the appearance of Fifth avenue hate to see the Vanderbilt home -demol- ished, os it probably will be, and those who live in the neighborhood of Sut- ton place are indignant for quite an- other reason. Among the latter !s a small artist colony, which has been extremely comfortable in this district for a num- ber of years and which greatly resents the intrusion of the wealthy. “It just means that we will have to move again,” complained one such disturbed artist the other evening, as he sipped a teacupful of very fair Chianti in a small East Side cafe. “Rents have already doubled on our street. In another month, if Mrs. Vanderbilt brings the usual retinue of Satellites with her, they will be trebled and no artist will be able to afford to live there, It’s simply beast- ly the way these people are ruining the East Side. The dear old place is breaking out like chickenpox with fashionable colonies everywhere, The artist then went on to explain that the housing situation was prac- tically driving art out of New York. In a few more years, he declared, bit- terly it would be pushed out into the suburbs, because it has become abso- lutely impossible to establish and keep an exclusive artists’ colony anywhere within the city limits. “You see we're part of a vicious cycle,” he “said. “We find a_nice, quiet place, with a good landscape or skyscrape, and just get comfortably ttled when along come some fash- jonable ladies who immediately decide that they want it. They, in turn, have been ousted out of their favorite spot by the invasion of shopkeepers and hotels, who have moved uptown to escape the factories and warehouses. There is a movement to keep the fac- torles'in their place, you know, but nothing has yet been done to keep the retailers where; they belong, or to make the aristocracy stay put.” ‘And what about you artists?" we suggested. “Aren't you poachers, too? Tor you come along and drive the proletariat out of their homes. You said just a few minutes ago that you live in a house formerly occupied by a family of nine Italian immigrants.” ‘Yes,"" agreed the artist pensively. “I wonder where the immigrants move to.” , Although the various changes which are rapidly taking place in New York's residential districts may not be due entirely to our friend's cycle, it fs true that there is a strong back- to:the-East-Side movement among fashionable New Yorkers. It is be- coming quite the proper thing to live in obscure and dingy neighborhoods lying between Third avenue and the East River. Mrs. Vanderbilt's pro- posed migration to this district Is only one of many that have occurred in society circles during the past two years. Several exclusive colonies of. fashionable folk are already flourish- ing on sites but recently supporting tenements, and gradually the East Side is taking on a new personality. Whole streets are shedding their din- gy poverty like a cloak and emerging in lustrous, modern raiment, remod- eled from the tatters of their glorious early years. For, long ago, before the proletariat took complete possession of it the East Side was a fashionable suburb, scattered with large country estates, down the center of Third avenue, Fifth Avenue Sheds Tears Over’ _ Loss of Vanderbilts but East || Side Fails to Appreciate Them} are not in-!

In addition to a number of well-known society folk, several authors, including Winston Churchill and Ernest Poole, live here. The colony gets its name from the river, which, curving abruptly in at this point, was known as Turtle Bay in the old days when the suburbanites had a bathing beach and a series of private wharves on its banks.
