Foote Creek Anticline. ‘The highest point structurally on this anticline fs in the southeastern part of township 22, range 78, where there is a small exposure of rocks of the Morrison formation, the Clover- ly, Benton, and Niobrara encircling it. The crest ot the anticline runs 700 to 800 feet, was dry, and the @Muddy, Dakota and Lakota cargjed ‘water.

This sand is prob- ably the Shannon or a stray sand above the Shannon and the well is being drilled deeper to earry out the original intention of testing the Frontié: sands. It may ba posal ble to develop a small commercial production from the shallow sands, oe the possibilities are being test- ed.

A si0-foot wall in Séo- tion 20 makes about 10 barrels per day. Deep tests are being drilled on sections 16, 17 and-20, by the Producers and Refiners corporation. Elk Mountain, The structure is about aix miles southwest of Simpson Ridge in the northern part of township 19, range 81, the structure being partially en- circled by the outcrop of the Mesa- werde formation, part of the Plerre shale ‘being eroded away, with the range 77. It has been tested by two wells -and found barren, all the sands being water-bearing. The South- western Petroleum company, drilling in. the NE of section 3-21-77, found the Wall Creek at 290 to 295 feet, the first Muddy at 1,195 to 1,440 feet and was abandoned in the Morrison at 1,578 feet. The United Western Grilled on the SH% SW of section 2-21-77 to a depth of 1,490 feet and encountered water in the first Mud- éy. It was on the south linib of the anticline. _ Medicine Bow Dome. ‘The crest of this structure {9 1o- cated in the southeastern part of township 21-79, where the rocks of the upper part of the Montana, (Mesaverde), are outcropping, indi- eating considerable depth to the Muddy and Dakota sands, which has delayed testing, although it is known to be a closed structure of considerable area. ‘The oll discov- ery in this structure, 10 miles south of Medicine Bow, was made by the Cliff Petroleum company and South- western Petroleum after drilling weveral other tests in the southern the part of the state.

Further testa are now in progress. ‘The Rock River anticline will probabiy be tested deeper. The Of] Springy anticline {s not considered by some operators as sufficiently tested. It will be noted that the unpro- ductive structures are in most cases plunging anticlines open at one end so that no trap exisits for the ac- cumulation of of! or gas. In somo cases where the structures are closed, the dips are so slight that they did not continue with depth, or else were not sufficient to trap oll where water was circulating in the sands. In other cases the oll bearing formations have been eroded away. The showings of oll and gas in numerous tests indicate that wher- ever structures exist in which oll or gas can be properly trapped, these structures will prove produc tive, if the sands ean be reached by drill, ee lesple, Como Ridge, Flattop, out Hills, Bothwell. One structure, the Rock River, has been a big producer for a num- ber of years, and in three struc- tures oll was discovered in 1923: in Simpson Ridge, Medicine Bow Freeze- Shirley, Elk Mountain, - Allen Lake. Situated in the southern part of township 23 range 79, extending into 23-72, {it was drilled about six Years ago by the Cosden interests, and a gas flow estimated at 35,000 feet wns encountered tn the Muddy gand at 1,465 foot depth, deeper drilling showing water and the well ‘was abandoned. It was drilled again by L. R. Pattinson to a depth of about 600 feet on a government permit, July 1, 1923, the Laramie syndi- cate started drilling at Allen Lake, four miles northwest of Medicine Bow, and in October encountered fome gas at 1,403 feet; thé flow, however, is reported to have ceased. At 1,331 feet this well en countered a flow of 4,500 feet, and easing was cemented. The well is Bow shut down for the winter. Flattop Anticline, \ This is a large dome six miles due forth of the town of Medicine Bow. All of the earlier sedimentary rocks Are exposed, including the Tensleep, &nd no test of this structure is nec- essary, as all of the oil bearing formations are eroded away, Oil Springs Anticline, A very narrow faulted structure, in the northern part of township 23, range 79, about two miles and a half in length east and west, by lout 900 feat wide. Its nano tn derived from an old spring in @ 10- foot hole on ihs west en1 of the structure in the shale near coe ‘Val’ Creek sandstone. It was drilled In 3917 by .hs Ohfo Oll company, and gas founi in the Mowry, not over 1,000,000 cubic feet. It was drilled to a depth of 1,498 feet and Water was encountered in the Muddy mand.

Unfavorable trade re- ports continued to be the basis for the selling, the market apparently paying no attention to favorable for- eign developments. Sales approxi- mated 950,009 shares. Narrow and irregular price move- ments characterized the opening of tocay’s stock market but the main price tendency was still downward. American Agricultural Chemical preferred dropped 14% and Baldwin, Chandler, Gulf States Steel and Sin- clair yielded fractionally. Studebak- er advanced a point. Heavy selling of the motor shares, based on reports of reduced produc- tion and sales, again unsettled the list. More than a score of ismes sold down to new low prices for the year, incliding Baldwin, Studebnk- er (new stock), Chandler, Stewart- Warner, Lima Locomotive, Amert- can Expres, Cuba Cane preferred, Cuban Deminican Sugar and Gen- eral Asphalt, the net losses rang. ing from fractions io nearly two points. There were a few strong Spots, Woolworth climbing three points and United Drug and Ameri- ean Sugar refining one each, For- eign exchanges opened steady. Acute weakness developed in sey- eral sections of the lst, particularly among the sugar; motor and equip- ment stocks, Oil shares, which had been offering good resistance to se!l- ing pressure, also yielded sharply for the firmt time, Tidewater Oil breaking nearly six points. Pacific, Cosden and Houston ragging two to three points, and California Petrol- eum and Producers and Refiners slipping more than a point each to new low records for the vear. Bald- win extended its loss to $% polnts, touching $1.10, and addftional new lows were established by American Locomotive, Willys Overland pre- ferred, Gulf States Stee), Baltimore and Ohio, Coca Cola and several others. A sudden outburst of buy- ing in Woolworth sent the old stock up 21 points to $18, the new stock advancing 5% to 80%, a new top. Marine proferred climbed 2%. Call money opened at 4% per cent. Speculation became more of a two sided affair in the early afternoon when the speculations. were given a whirl upward, Marine preferred rising 3 points and the shorts began covering in United States Steel, American and Baldwin, Persistent selling, however, continued of other stocks, General Asphalt dropping to 33%, Chandier to 42°. American Sugar to 33% and Bethlehem Steel to 47%. Their weakness, ultimately pulled down the stocks which had shown a. tendency to rally. The closing was weak. Further uneettlement took place in the late dealings when Wilson company is- sues broke to new lows in sympathy with the weakness of the bonds and Studebaker established a new mini mum price, LIBERTY BONDS NEW YORK, April 14.—Liberty bonds closed: 3%, 99.3.

Louls spot House Flies ‘Are Shipped to Hub For Experiments BOSTON, April 14.—None the WHEAT MARKETS BREAK SLIGHTLY Speculative Demand Lack- ing and Temporary Gains Are Overcome CHICAGO, April 14.—Wheat pric- es drifted downward today after scoring temporary gains. Specula- tive demand was lacking. The close was easy, at the same as Saturday's finish to %c lower; May $1.05% to $1.05%@% and July” $1031 to $1.03%. Owing chiefly to firmness of Ltv- erpool quotations wheat averaged @ little higher in price here today during the first part of the board of trade session. Besides, there were indications of some Buropean buy- ing in Canada. Favorable weather for seeding and growth of domestic wheat tended, however to promote selling whenever the market showed any material advance. Chicago op- ening prices which varied from un+ changed figures to%c higher, with May 1.02% to 1,02% and July $1.03% to 1.04, were followed by slight gains and then a little reaction. Scattered selling kept the corn market easy. No aggressive sup- port for values was in evidence. After opening a shade lower to ic advance, May 77% to 77%, the mar- ket underwent a moderate general setback. Oats held relatively firm in the absence of selling on the part of the principal holders. Prices started unchanged to %o higher, May 47% to 47% @%, and later continued to average slightly above Saturday's finish. Provisiona tended upward in line With the hog market. Subsequently, buyers were » and a good sized decrease of United States visible supply total was without effect on the market. Prospects of increased acreage of corn acted later as something of a weight on prices. The close was easy, %e to %@i4ec net lower, May TT*he. ‘Wheat number 1 hard°$1.07; num- ber 2 hard $1.05%@$1.07.
